Жжош!

[temcat.livejournal.com]

Could some fellow Russian please explain to me the exact meaning of the verb "жечь" as used in the Russian blogspeak (usually grossly and deliberately misspelt, like for example "жжош" instead of "жжёшь")? I suppose this is some kind of positive characteristic. Is it related to the phrase "глаголом жечь сердца людей" by A. S . Pushkin? I believe this can also be interesting for Russian students reading blogs kept by native Russian speakers.

i would say that the basic principle is on-purpose misspelling, even if it doesn't correspond to reading. e.g. we don't really pronounce double ц in reflexive verbs' endings like in "пишецца"

That’s why I say the principle is basic. As for double «ц», it initially emerged as a representation of an exaggerated spoken manner and is often capitalized for this reason. By now it has become a “misspelling norm”.

You are not understand russians. Double ц is a indication of a membership in most impotant social institute of russias network communities - The Ugly Timofeeff's Gung.
