Literally, an SMS text message that is mistakenly interpreted by the recipient to mean something other then what the sender meant the message to convey. This is a common problem as the limitations of characters that fit into a standard SMS text message require the sender to abbreviate or otherwise cut out words making the message harder to understand, hence lost in textlation.
