Confused on a translation

Question

I'm still not good at Spanish especially when they shorten the words for example someone wrote "me uviera echo tweet!!"

I don't know what that means and I don't tweet. "uviera" might be "hubiera", "echo" might be hecho? Edit Im to I'm. - Jubilado, Aug 31, 2013

Thanks, I was thinking that it might be me hubiera hecho also - Chrystal24, Aug 31, 2013

Answer 1

The ortography is incorrect,"me uviera echo tweet!!" must be written as "me hubiera hecho tweet" that means "he/she should have tweeted me" at least here in Mexico that kind of words are commonly written by teens.

I hope that it helps!

Thank you so much!!! It helped out a ton - Chrystal24, Sep 1, 2013

Answer 2

Text speak is extremely hard to figure out. I ask all my friends and family to spell things out correctly when texting to avoid misunderstanding. But occasionally I get something that leaves me scratching my head. Just ask for a clarification from the sender.

But this raises a good question. Does anyone know of a textspeak disctionary..a list of textspeak abbreviations in Spanish. I have seen them for English. - gringojrf, Aug 31, 2013
