 Youth today use ‘text talk’ or ‘chat-speak’  Text messaging – the exchange of a brief written message from a mobile phone to another  Most predominant ‘texters’ are Gen Y and Z

 Many popular abbreviations that are widely understood  Autocorrect can discourage use  Common abbreviations include: - replacing the beginning or ending of a word with a number (e.g. 2day, gr8) - Words or phrases shortened to acronyms (e.g. LOL, OMG, BTW) - Removal of conjunctions (e.g. “I’ll be home soon” becomes “home soon”

 Words that have been around for centuries now have new meanings  Text – a body of writing and a message being sent to someone  Menu – a list of meals served at a restaurant and a list of options on a phone  Contact – the act of touching something and a person whose number is saved onto the phone

 Situation of person can determine the style of language they use  Language choice can vary depending on who the message is being sent to  The purpose of the message will influence language - e.g. a reminder sent to a parent could be “remember train tickets” whereas a new message would be “Could you please buy a train ticket on your way home tonight?”  People with Smart phones are more likely to use full words than someone with a standard mobile phone

 Language choices can reflect an individuals personality or relationship with the other person  Message being sent to a friend would be different to one sent to a parent  Person may want to be seen as cool by their mates but responsible by their parents  Language choices are dictated by the identity they want to create for themselves

 Capitalisation, punctuation and grammar have been swapped for a less stable style of writing  Negatives: - may cause vocabulary of youth to shrink or not develop - contribute to youth having more trouble expressing themselves with extended vocabulary  Positives: - students know when and when not to use casual and formal language - youth may have a more extended vocabulary from being able to switch between communication styles - speeds up writing skills by taking away the difficulties of the English language - can liberate people with learning difficulties communication skills - discreet - less expensive than voice calls
