I agree with Shrek that it is POR. I have seen x used for por a lot.

"¿xq (or xk) no me saludaste?" Why didn't you say hi to me?

"Es x tu culpa." It's your fault.

Also in maths, when people say 2 x 2 = 4 they say "dos por dos = cuatro"

The "x" should probably be just "a".

I'm guessing that X means "con" or with

abra should be spelled habra asta should be spelled hasta

The "h" doesn't change the sound of the word, but needs to be there to be correct (or to be found in the dictionary)
