_The Twictionary (Decoding Tweet-Speak) is a
very elementary guide to the lexicon of Twitter. Brevity is treasured,
grammar often ignored, and a whole new language has been developed
surrounding Twitter. The words may largely be English, but their
meanings are not always intuitive. This deconstruction of Twitter’s
vocabulary will not only work as a glossary, but will hopefully leave
you with the fluency to teach your students as well.
