That’s a fascinating observation! Back in the early days, those typos and quirky slang were kind of like a hidden curriculum—students were learning how to read between the lines, so to speak. Now, when we build vocabulary lists or conversation practice, we actually point out those very oddities, so learners know when something feels “off” or when it’s just playful internet speak. It’s a bit like teaching a kid to recognize a typo in a sentence and then decide if it’s a mistake or a creative flourish. The same way auto‑complete glitches taught us to double‑check, language apps now use contextual clues to flag likely errors while also celebrating the slang that becomes part of everyday chat. So yes, the wild, early internet quirks do live on, just in a more polished, intentional form that helps us teach real‑world usage.
