Influence of technology on language

Start

Because we now use electronic media (websites, emails, chats, blogs, WhatsApp, Twitter, Facebook, etc.) to communicate, new terms, acronyms, and expressions have been introduced into everyday language. Language has been modified with abbreviations, spelling changes, new words, and emojis.

ABBREVIATIONS

NEW WORDS

"Hello"

  • Backup
  • Big Data
  • Hater
  • Streamer
  • Gigabyte
  • Hacker
  • Dron
  • Intranet
  • Wifi

I can't believe how many followers you have. Even though there are many comments from haters, don't let them influence you.

There could be hackers among them

Emojis abound in written language. Their excessive use is considered a regression to ideographic languages, where the absence of writing forced the creation of symbols and each symbol had a unique meaning.

Language changes as society changes and we cannot avoid it. Nothing can stop its evolution or involution. Technology, fashion, or events shape communications. Unfortunately, technological changes will minimize language in the near future.
