It is always fun to see how gaming has make the world evolve in one way.
w00t has became the Merriam-Webster’s Word of the Year 2007. w00t is used in gaming forum and conversations in games such as FPS game (Counter-Strike) and MMORPG (World of Warcraft). It is part of the l33t speak (’leet’ or ‘elite’) which people used to communicate with fellow gamers.
w00t means an expression of joy (with or without a reason, that’s how gamers live). It is also an acronym of “we own the other team”, which means triumph over the opposing team.
Gaming language has evolved through the decades, with MMORPG and online games. It is certainly a joy to enjoy the language we all ’speak’ (type?)
