How do other languages indicate laughter on the internet? : linguistics - 1 views

English - "hahaha" Spanish - "jajaja" Arabic - "ههههه" ("hhhhh" - Arabic doesn't write short vowels, so that could be read as "hahahahaha") Thai - "55555" ("5" in Thai is pronounced "ha")

French typically writes "héhé" or just "hahaha." The French equivalent of "lol" (if they don't just use lol) is "mdr," which stand for "mort de rire," literally "dying of laughter."
