Decoding IMHO.
Content
There are a lot of abbreviations on the Internet, as well as jargon, which is used exclusively during communication on the network. One of these words is IMHO. In this article we will tell you what this expression means.
What is IMHO: The origin of the phrase
Please note that this word was originally written in English letters In My Humble Opinionand meant translated "in my humble opinion". That is, in this way a person simply expressed his point of view. But users, users and people who are constantly on the network did not bother, switch into English, and write the abbreviation correctly. The abbreviation was simply rewritten into Russian, without even changing letters. In this case, the meaning of the word has changed somewhat.
It depends on the environment in which the correspondence occurs. In most cases, this also means " in my opinion". In this case, the interlocutor simply expresses his point of view, without claiming truthfulness, as well as support, does not enter into any disputes with anyone. This is just a way to express your attitude to a certain situation.
IMHO: Deciphering
After the phrase has become popular, it has been redone many times. There were people who interpreted this reduction as " in my excellent opinion«, «in my terrible opinion«, «in my true opinion". Accordingly, such an interpretation brings some arrogance into communication and tries to belittle the opponent, as well as the interlocutor. But the Russian inhabitants of the network are not far behind, and the interpretation has acquired a very interesting importance.
For example, " I have an opinion, you will challenge hell«, «i have an opinion, you condemn the hell". Therefore, in such a verse of communication, the reduction also acquired arrogant meaning, as well as the meaninglessness of the implementation of disputes, or some uphills, regarding the point of view.
What does IMHO mean: the feasibility of use on the network
The meaning of this word has a very extensive meaning, in which everyone puts something of his own.
We recommend that before the expression of its point of view, which can be perceived in hostility, not to write IMHO.
It is worth writing that this is only your opinion, and you do not claim the truth of the last instance. In addition, you do not want to argue with anyone, as well as enlighten. In this case, you will be correctly understood and will not interpret the reduction in their own way. As for real life, it is not recommended to use any Internet salting in ordinary, daily communication. Because you also risk being incorrectly understood by your interlocutor
Please note that people of the older generation may absolutely not understand what is about, and what you want to say. Therefore, before saying something to an older interlocutor who practically does not communicate on the network, explain to him the meaning of the Internet salvo.
At the moment, IMHO contractions are used on the network quite often. In 80% of cases, it means an expression of its opinion, without a desire to argue with someone. As for communication on forums with aggressive political orientation, here the reduction can be interpreted in its own way. We recommend that you do not enter the Internet and clearly express your opinion so that the opponent does not have a dual sensation, or that you are correctly understood.
