hello!

I'm a audiovisual translator working on the French version of a American
TV series, and I have the following dialog:

two characters (a man and a woman, video gamers) are chatting...

He says:
W R U D ? (that I understand: "what are you doing?")

She says:
Mainly SOMAANDA ! (???)

He says:
Ha ha, IFYGIFY ! (???)

any thoughts/ideas will be greatly appreciated!

thanks! have a nice weekend!
