☆ENGLISH ONLY☆コミュのlol

having many Japanese-speaking friends, and English-speaking friends, and both,
I have recently realised that some people use "lol (laugh out loud)" and some use （笑）or even "www"

I just want to clarify on what other people use,
or the most popular one...

I use lol when speaking/typing in English,
and (笑 when in Japanese... so bit of both

sorry to create such a boring topic, lol

When in Rome, right? :)

I'm pretty much like you, using LOL and its variants (e.g. LMAO, ROTFLMAO, etc) when speaking/writing in English and their Japanese equivalents (e.g. （笑）, ww, etc) in Japanese. I occasionally let the English ones slip into my Japanese conversation/chatting, but not the other way 'round.

yep ... for me as well: lol when writing in eigo, (笑) when writing in 日本語. same with the other expressions when there's a nihongo equiv. ... when there isn't, i just use the eigo shorthand; if the recipient doesn't understand, they can ask. ;-) same way with the ";-)" and ":-)" btw... i still chuckle at having to say, "turn your head! it's a smiley" at times...

Well, I Know that the "www" is used to say "lol" xD.

But, why exactly "www"...
why, of all things, that "www" ? Because of 笑 ?

I dont know that exat meaning of "w"...

Btw, when I am writing in English I somtimes use ROFL (Rofl doeas mean "Rolling on (the) floor laughing"...Rofl).

roflmao is my fav.

roflmfao is sometimes suitable... sorry if one finds this too offensive.

I think some Japanese mistook lol for（笑）

I wouldn't go as far as "lol≠（笑）" but I'd say "lol ≒（笑）"

I don't hate people using lol or any other emoticons but I do get what you mean, Dylan. When "lol" is used too often, it can be very annoying to read... also, the user can appear quite stupid.
