How well do you know your texting slang?
When used at the end of an email, SY stands for "sincerely yours." It's a quick way to abbreviate what is many writers' standard email sign-off.
A friend or family member who ends an email with SY likely means it, and has written you an honest, heartfelt message. (Which you should respond to sometime, huh?) Anyone else who ends an email with SY is likely using it as a simple platitude (as most of us do).
