Internet Jargon- “net-speak”  Lacking correct grammar and spelling  Time saver  Changing the written English language  “punctuation, spelling, syntax, and capitalization, often makes what is written difficult, if not impossible, to comprehend“ how R U? i hope things OK. System crashed yesterday, possibly fried HDD. if you could, please swing by the office tonight to fix it. thx! cul8r -cp Example:

“Invisible Person” Syndrome  Poor grammar and spelling are acceptable  Believed to be unknown –Most users can be traced  Internet communication leaves an impression too!

Training and Tools  Many do not know all about computers  Corners are cut in areas of knowledge –English Language  Spelling and grammar checkers –Do not mark words used incorrectly –Incorrect words can be added

The Changing English Language  New words have been added with each age –Chariot → Carriage → Horseless Carriage → Car  Technical terms have become commonly used words –“being online” and things “crashing”

Conclusion  Computers made the internet main stream  Internet communication created new standards for the English language  Internet communication was seen as an impersonal communication  The public lacks the training and tools  The English language is changing Question?
