What is Multi-Tapping?

When you create a text message, the use of your cell phone keypad to "type" words is called "multi-tapping." Multi-tapping is still widely used for SMS, as each phone keypad number is associated with a certain letter of the alphabet. Your phone has a mode that allows you to enter letters rather than numbers. This is different on all phone models, so your particular cell phone manual is essential in learning to text message.

Generally there are two or three letters by each number on your cell phone keypad. Therefore you would need to "multi-tap" to advance to the desired letter in a sequence. For example - D is first in the sequence with the number 3 on the keypad. O is third in the sequence with 6, G first with the number 4. So to text the word dog - you would Press 3 once, 6 - 3 times and 4 once. Now this may seem time-consuming - and at first it will be. However, you will be amazed at how quickly you become familiar with your phone's keypad - and you'll be shooting off text messages like a pro in no time...with the help of some SMS abbreviations.
