    I know some words' spelling are false,but it is my keyboard, and I know the right spelling
    another thing I think writing online isn't like writing to a newspaper.. I usually use shortcuts for prepositions (to=2,with=wz,. )and so on
    waiting your reply
    thanks

    thanx

    Using shortcuts is considered *chat speak* or *text speak* and is not grammatically correct.
    You should do simple things such as capitalization,when necessary.
    Punctuation is important,you do not want run on sentences.

    Yes, your punctuation and general grammar are incorrect. Do not use shortcuts. Find an online site such as grammarmudge where you can learn good grammar and ask questions and practice writing.
