The Meaning of Ily
Or is an abbreviation that friends often rewrite or post on social networks. It’s short for “I love you,” but it doesn’t have the same power as the written phrase, so it’s mostly used to describe admiration or tenderness, not true love. For the people you really love, it’s still best to say the whole phrase.
How to Use Ily
Or is a slang term that is sometimes spoken aloud, but more often written in informal communication. This should be avoided in a formal setting, but it probably isn’t a problem because in formal situations most people decide to confess their love.
Or you can write in upper or lower case – since there is no direction for this, you can choose how to do it yourself. If you plan to write something for your audience and want to include words there, choose uppercase or lowercase letters and stick to that throughout the text.
