Well, I thought it would be a good idea if we could start up a running noobspeek-to-English dictionary. If everyone submitted some cryptic arrangement of letters, numbers, and/or symbols, we could have a way to figure out what these people are trying to say. It doesn't seem important to some of you, I know, but it would help a few people... and if it helps a few, I'm happy.
Submissions:
Word-
English Translation-
Part of Speech-
Possible Origins-
The last one can be left out, but it's cool to know the Etymology of noobspeek if you're trying to figure something else out. Submissions will be sorted alphabetically by first letter/symbol of the noobspeek word.
And... go!
