What does "que lo que" ("klk" in chat) mean?

Question

Whenever I talk to a friend (Dominican I believe) via chat like Gtalk, he always starts the conversation with:> klkI did some research about that and found that, in fact, it comes from the Spanish "que lo que". So, what does that mean? Is it some kind of Dominican "hello"?

Answer 1

Yes, "qué lo qué" is like saying "¿qué es lo qué es?" or "what's up?"

It's like the ¿Qu'bo? or ¿Qué hubo? equivalent of Colombia that also means "what's up?"
