unbroken block of text (old-fashioned), wall of text (modern) Explanation: Are you saying that "walla text" is a common expression? Like "Walla Walla, Washington, and Kalamazoo?" Anyway, I've never heard it until just now. Maybe it's a "transcribed" version of "wall of text," which is an Internet-era expression for what we used to call when I worked as a typesetter in New York City 40 years ago "an unbroken block [chunk/swath/section/expanse] of text." |
