xbow


short for ‘crossbow’, usually used in the context of rpgs or fpses in which such weapons are used. it is a typing abbreviation and thus is most often seen under conditions either where fast typing is more important than accurate spelling or where the people talking are just lazy typists. the spelling comes from the idea that the letter ‘x’ looks like a cross and thus replaces the syllable ‘cross’ in the original word (much like the more common ‘xing’ for ‘crossing’). it is usually pr-nounced either ‘craws-boe’ (ignoring the spelling change) or ‘ehx-boe’ (pr-nouncing the ‘x’ by its letter name).
rpgs:

fpses:
player 1: -kills player 2 with a crossbow-
player 2: omg no fair u used xbow script u haker
player 2: -leaves the game-
player 1: lol noob
