The secret language of predictive text. Zonino!

Slang is so last century. Now kids are inventing a whole new language to confuse the hell out of adults. It's based entirely on the predictive text function on mobile phones, replacing the words they mean with the first alternative that their phones come up with. But now, instead of being completely illogical like slang words from the past (like 'gnarly' and 'sick' and 'rad' which I hope will never die) this new language can actually be deciphered... if you really want to sit down and try to figure it out.

Accordingly, my name in this secret language is baby. So, Baby goin good 2 hav adds w my book any, gongu!

Here's a glossary for some of the words:
