Leet



Leet or Leetspeak (often written in Leet as 1337 or 13375p34k) is a sociolect variety used primarily on the Internet, particularly in online games such as Counter-Strike, Half-Life, Half-Life 2, and Team Fortress. The term itself is derived from the word Elite, meaning “better than the rest,” and generally has the same meaning when referring to the hacking skills of another person.
