Over the past few days I have been paying attention to the words and phrases that I use the most. These are a few of the words and phrases: Like, So, And, Yea, Aint, Yall, Oh, Lol, Ha-ha, What, Idk, and Ok.Most of the time when I use these words, I am having a conversation with my friends. When I am speaking with my friends, my language is not proper and consists of slang words. Most of the words that I use the most, I say through text messaging. Some of the words are easier to text and they are quick to type over and over. I think that a bunch of words that I use repetitively are picked up from texting. I think that “yall” and “aint” are some of my favorite words to use because they are part of my southern twang. I generally use the word “Oh” when I do not have a response to something. Also, most of the time when I say "Lol" or "haha"it does not mean literally laughing out loud, sometimes it just makes the point that you think something is funny. I also have a problem with run on sentences and I think it is because I use the word “and” a lot in my everyday language. I say the word “like” over and over but, mostly because I am thinking. I think that I say “yea” a lot because I tend to agree with people. I am a very indecisive person, hence the reason I say “I don't know" lot when I am speaking with people or texting someone.
These are the words that I use the most and they are part of my everyday vocabulary. I think it would be nearly impossible to stop using these words because I do use them unconsciously.
