Answer: Depends on which situation

Explanation: When you are talking casually to your friends or someone close to you, it’s appropriate to say those abbreviation. But when you are talking to someone professional or your teacher, you shouldn’t talk in those abbreviations. You should not talk in those abbreviations to elderly because they may not understand it.
