                Jejemons are said to be the new “jologs” a term used for Filipinos of the lower income class. I can’t blame them, trying to decipher jejemon speaks fells to me the equivalent of hearing nails on a blackboard.

                Personally I would say given the fact that the Philippines is an English speaking country, the language is considered an “elite” one and used primarily by the educated classes. Maybe these changes in English language are just one way for those not well used in English, whether rich or poor to subvert and own the language, jejemon are people who use of spelling like alternating capitalization of letters and other weird characters like “luarn” instead of “lang”.

                Before im one of the jejemon my sister irritated to me when im texting her “”eow xiz, how are eu? Im ir nha sza housz” and then she replied me “**** ayusin mu nga txt mu” I laugh when I read her replied because I thought she understand what am I saying. Being a jejemon does not make me illiterate, for me writing in a jejemon style is a just one way of expressing ourselves. Everyone has his or her own foolishness, but I do not actually mean that this way of writing is foolish.  What I mean is it gives happiness to jejemons, including me, without affecting our moral values. We should focus on the content of the language not with the way it was writer.

                Jejemon is just a fad. There’s a saying beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so we jejemons find it beautiful in our eyes and no one can question that.

                We are all jejemons in our own small, helpless ways. Who among us can claim to never have typed even once “TNX” on our cellphone? Before we cast aspersions on spelling and grammar of jejemons , we must first examine the infallibility of our own. That goes for both command of language and tastes in culture.
