Lol is an acronym for laughing out loud.

Jajaja, like hahaha in English, is a representation of the sound you hear when someone laughs. Just read it aloud.

Yes I think it does. When I first came to Spanishdict, I was slightly confused, because I'm not a spanish native....why, in most of the posts, did some of the users put 'jajajajaja' after funny statements. Then, realisation kicked in- they were laughing!!!!!

updated Nov 13, 2010posted by Seb79Did you never try to read it aloud? - lazarus1907, Nov 13, 2010No....I simply thought that you laughed whilst pronouncing the 'j', so I honestly thought that Spaniards were slightly weird. But that was when, I wasn't really familiar with the Spanish language and the people. - Seb79, Nov 13, 20101vote

In Spanish, the letter "j" is pronounced the same way that English speakers pronounce the letter "h".

English: Hahahahaha/hehehehe!

Spanish: ¡Jajajajajaja/jejejeje!
