What does tk mean?

Tk network language, usually used in online games, BBS and QQ groups, refers to people who only watch others talk for a long time without posting or talking, also known as "diving". From the game "Cat Travels", there are meanings of "peek" and "peek", which are also pinyin abbreviations of these two words.

At the same time, the game language tk is sometimes abbreviated as Tank in WOW. Tk in the game mainly refers to the main shield warrior (warrior or knight) who is responsible for carrying monsters, and its role is to provide a defensive barrier for the back-row wizards and ranged attack characters.

Network language has become an indispensable "passport" for netizens to communicate online. However, in the application of daily life, due to the communication barriers of some words, network language brings people a sense of novelty, but also causes inconvenience to people's communication.

This problem has also attracted the attention of the competent authorities. The National Language Reform Working Committee held an expert seminar on English alphabetic words and network language norms.

For more than 40 million netizens, online language has a unique charm. A college student said in an interview that online language is also a kind of culture. First of all, in order to save trouble, such as saying "goodbye" on the internet, the number "88" is generally used instead, and it will be established after a long time.

Secondly, many Internet terms have their own meanings, such as "rookie" and "dinosaur". If we just say "what a terrible novice" or "what an ugly girl", we will feel that we have lost our proper taste. There is also the use of "irrigation" to describe the spamming of posts on the forum, which is very vivid. Other words may not express this feeling.

Internet is a relatively free virtual space, so we should consciously safeguard the norms and meanings of traditional languages and not distort them. Experts' attitude towards network language has gone through a process from "dismissing" to "studying norms".
