Common French Abbreviations Used in Texting


The French use abbreviations in chat, emails, SMS (or texto), and to take shortcuts in note-taking just like we do in English. Here are the 10 most common French ones used in texts:

BJR = bonjour = hi
BSR = bonsoir = have a good night, hi (in the evening)
SLT = salut
MDR = mort(e) de rire = LOL
JTM = je t’aime = I love you (I’m in love with you)
MSG = un message = message
PK = pourquoi? = why?
QQC = quelque chose = something
QQ1 = quelqu’un = someone

BZ = bisous, bises = kisses
