Let's suppose an example which makes clear this internet slang very well,
Ex 1: "TBH, I don't think that blue dress is suitable for your coming party, try that shiny black dress which would look great on you".
Ex 2: "I don't like those square glasses of yours TBH. Instead, why not you wear that circle one".
The youngsters have a tendency to write it out in lowercase either "tbh" or "Tbh", with or without a comma following it. Those who do not use too many social media networking sites like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, etc for chatting, instant messaging, commenting or posting and are not that much tech-savvy might spell this internet slang in all caps TBH.
