Save the language

I too get many messages in short form (“Stingy texts in vogue, God save the English language!” Open Page, Sept.18). People are busy doing so many things at one time that they do not have the time to complete a sentence. It's just a hurry to send the message as soon as possible. Patience is a quality youngsters must learn from elders.
