The abbreviated language or style used in writing cablegrams and telegrams, using short words and numbers to save costs.
From cable with suffix -ese (from Italian -ese, meaning in the style of, as in journalese or bureaucratese). This term emerged in the telegraph era.
Cablese was like the original text-speak—people developed abbreviations like STOP for periods and numbers for words to save money, since cables were charged per word.
