In twitter; Japanese people but the letter W many times in their text? Why? - Riada - 10-08-2012 12:36 PM

They write something, and anywhere in the text, there is "wwwwww" or something... does anybody have any idea what it means?

W is the abbreviation of the Japanese verb "warau". It means "to laugh".
So, if somebody writes a lot of ws, the person wants to say that something is very funny.
