TTY User’s Etiquette

Here are some commonly used abbreviations that reduce the need to type long phrases.

1.GA means GO AHEAD.When you finish typing your sentence or message, press the GA key or type GA to show it is the other party’s turn to respond. For example, “HI,

THIS IS JANE, HOW CAN I HELP YOU Q GA?” When you see GA at the end of an incoming sentence or message, it is your turn to respond.

2.Q is often used instead of a question mark. For example, “HOW ARE YOU Q.”

3.SK means STOP KEYING. Press the SK key or type SK when you are ready to end the conversation.

4.Typing GA followed by SK is a polite way to say GOOD BYE and to give the other party a last chance to respond before hanging up. For example, “NICE TALKING WITH YOU GA SK.”.

5.Type SKSK to show that you are hanging up. For example, “GOODBYE NOW SKSK.”
