SMS

It is now common to receive a text message composed of fragmented sentences. Most “texters” cut sentences down to size and this may or may not be due to the 160-character limit of certain mobile phones. It is normal that fragmented sentences are preferred in text messaging, but are not favored in formal writing. In this case, we should not forget what a complete sentence looks like.
