Book Description

The high degree of internet penetration and its social (and linguistic) effects evidently influence how people, especially the highly susceptible younger generations, use language. The aim of the book is not only to identify the characteristic features of the digital language variety but to examine how digital communication affects the language of other mediums of communication: orality, handwritten and printed texts, including advertisements.
