Abstract Communication trends such as abbreviations and acronyms have dominated Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC) worldwide. These shortened words are used for speed and convenience in communicating with friends and family members. This research assesses the frequent utilization of linguistic patterns in CMC and the orthographic competence among 319 senior high school students in the public school system. It employed a descriptive-correlational research design utilizing an adapted questionnaire from a texting dictionary and Agbon, R.L (n.d), and Questionnaire on Textese. The data gathered were statistically treated with average mean, standard deviation, and p-value to assess the central tendency, variability, and significance of the findings, respectively. The result revealed that the mean average of (1) frequent utilization in terms of acronyms yielded a score of 2.47 (Competent), while for abbreviations, it was 3.02 (Incompetent). The (2) level of orthographic competence in the essay was 63.63% (Did Not Meet Expectation), and for sentences, it amounted to 39.5% (Satisfactory). The researchers also found that the mean (3) perception score regarding the impact of CMC on their orthographic competence was 3.05 (Incompetent). Statistically, there is no significant relationship between the frequent utilization of linguistic patterns and the respondents' orthographic competence, which implies that although the usage of acronyms and abbreviations is a prevalent linguistic feature in digital communication, it cannot affect the spelling ability of the users. However, this indicates that other significant factors, apart from linguistic patterns, could significantly influence orthographic competence.
