Details of what STFU means
In the world of online games, their rules, so newcomers are difficult to navigate in it. One of the difficulties is computer slang, which at first glance is incomprehensible to a person who has not previously worked in the IT field or is not addicted to games. For example, it is difficult at first sight to understand what STFU means. Meanwhile, this abbreviation is often found in the general chat rooms of popular games.
Where did computer slang come from?
Most often slang expressions of gamers are shortened English words or expressions translated into Russian. On the Internet, you can find even special dictionaries that help beginner gamers communicate in the world of games. But not everyone can find what STFU means. The fact is that this expression is most often used on European servers of popular online games. However, now it can be found in the chat rooms of Russian-language versions of games. The fact is that an increasing number of players are trying their hand with foreign opponents in their territories, and then bring new expressions from the World Wide Web.
What is STFU?
On Russian-language portals, usually all communication occurs through distorted English words, which are listed by the type of transcription. If you wandered to a European server, then you must know English, so as not to get trapped. In a general chat, you can often see the word STFU, which means a rude request to end the dispute and shut up.
This expression arose from the English phrase: shut the fuck up. We do not give a literal translation, but according to individual words it can be understood that this is a kind of English mate.
Why instead of full expression gamers use abbreviations
If in Russian games to write anything, it is enough to change a few letters for the Latin alphabet, then on the world servers this method will not work (often there is simply not recognized Cyrillic alphabet). Therefore, foreign players widely use abbreviations, including STFU. This expression is understandable to professional gamers, but at the same time it is not recognized by the protection program from mat.
