What Does 548 Mean in a Text?

In a text, the numbers 548 mean "Are you OK?." If you were to read these numbers in Chinese, they would sound similar to the Chinese words 无事吧, which translate as "Are you OK?."

Lots of Chinese words sound similar to the Chinese numbers. As a result, sentences can be created using just numbers. Of note, the number "0" (zero), which is used to represent the word "you," does not sound much like the Chinese word for "you," but it is still used so meaningful sentences can be created. These Chinese chat codes have become highly popular, not only in countries where Chinese characters are used but also in countries with different alphabets (e.g., Latin, Arabic, Cyrillic).
