And in World of Warcrft it's "kek"
- esperent 3y agoActually from Starcraft, it's the Korean way to say hahaha (kekeke).
- rented_mule 3y agoI don't speak or read Korean, but I think kekeke might be a transliteration of ㅋㅋㅋ - I've seen that frequently enough in Korean language comments on YouTube that I've looked it up before.

- logbiscuitswave 3y agoㅋㅋㅋ is literally “kkk” but it’s shorthand for 크크크 (keukeukeu). There’s also ㅎㅎㅎ (hhh) that shorthand for 하하하 (hahaha). It’s much faster to just mash out those single consonants, sort of like keyboard spam laughing.
- zipping1549 3y agoㅎㅎㅎ is definietly not for 하하하. It's more like 흐흐흐 or 히히히, just like hehe in English.
- asimovfan 3y agoWasnt it bcs alliance text appeared different to horde and kek translated to lol
- tnecniv 3y agoYeah or the other way around. I thought I saw orcs kek’ing as an alliance character. They’d mangle text spoken in languages you didn’t know, and horde / alliance did not have any language overlap.
- pard68 3y agoCorrect, if you were Alliance and a Horde character near you typed "lol" it would appear as "kek".
