правильно говорят что многие американцы не могут сдать даже первый тест в колледже...английский письменный))))
вот и делают свои ошибки - нормой)

Hello Guten Abend Добрый день или просто Привет!

Сокращать или не сокращать? Англичане не задаются таким вопросом и сокращают все и везде... а нам разбирайся! Особенно редуцирование коснулось сферы телефонных сообщений или смс или, как их называют англичане, text messages or texts.

Довольно часто общаясь с англоговорящими иноземцами, мне пришлось научиться расшифровывать сообщения вот такого вида Im lukin fwd 2 m%tin u. Бывало, что приходилось лезть в интернет, чтобы расшифровать полученный text. Мой ненаглядный читатель, Вам больше не надо чесать репу и напрягать мозги:), т.к. я решила поделиться накопленным богаством! См. внизу целый список возможных сокращений. Дочитавшего до конца ждет сюрприз!

I would also add 'FYI - for your information' to this list, as it is frequently used in all knids of electronic texts (SMS, e-mails, forums, etc.).

“FYI” is too simple ))))

I had a situation when I received an invitation for the call and it was said that call is set up for EDT 9.00 am , then I saw correspondence related to this call and noticed that they mentioned EST time as well .

In the end of all correspondence I noticed that actually this is 2.00 pm UK , or 2 pm GMT .

you felt like my brains start to boil ….



Also I remember my reaction when I received something like : please send me this doc by Tuesday COB .
Later I understood that this is close of business which means end of business day .

This isn't something you actually learn at school or university, because the majority of teachers have no idea of all these abbreviations, and how and when to use them. You can only learn something like that when you run into it working with native speakers or in the English-medium business environment.
