EML

Email me later

Ever received a message that simply says “EML”? This is a common slang term used when someone wants you to email them at a later time. For instance, let’s say your teammate, Sarah, needs the updated logo for a project. She might text you saying, “I need the updated logo by COB today. Can you EML?”

EML is utilized in a variety of scenarios. It might be used as a prompt or because the person is currently occupied (perhaps in a meeting or having lunch) and plans to respond to your email later.

Though “later” can be a bit vague, in most cases, EML suggests a time later in the same day. If you take more than a day to respond, especially if the issue is urgent, the individual might follow up with you.
