Adjective

Definition: existing in every part of something; spreading to all parts of something

This word was also found in the first paragraph of “Texting Shorthand Annoys Purists and May Have Lasting Impact.”

I didn’t know what the author of this article meant by “global pervasiveness.” I looked it up and I found out that he was talking about how texting is used all around the world.
