1337 Talk...In a Book?!
 

I'm reading a book in English class called "Woman Hollering Creek" for a project. I was flipping through the pages just now and I found 1337 talk...My eyes literally did this: :eek: !

See for yourselves...

Now it confused me a bit, so if you can figure it out, you rock this world.

I just found this so cool!

I've never seen that in a book before, it's definitly neat.

Is it only one section or a certain chapter?



Oh wait, you weren't holding the book upside down, were you?! :p

hmmm, this is certainly a dialect that I've never seen before.

It took me a minute but here it is
1 = a
2 = e
3 = i
4 = o
5 = u

I didnt translate the whole thing yet but this should help.

Yup, I've seen it with the 4 and the 3 mixed up as well.

and the message is...

Very nice. I got quite confused before...thanks for the translation! I haven't even gotten to that part of the book. I just found it cool to share.

Yeah I found it very awesome. It's only in a chapter, and it's all these letters being written to God asking for help of some sort. I haven't gotten to that part of the book yet, but I was flipping through and found that. I figured it'd be interesting to share with y'all.
