GLOBALIZATION & FRAMING Globalization and the constant spread of information Clash of linguistic items between cultures Framing as the reconstruction of a speakers’ speech for understanding it Understanding experiences through framing: collective subconscious comprehension Social constructions determine spreaded information and its understanding We frame not only languages, but also experiences, events, and traditions

REFRAMING COMMUNICATION Technologization of discourse: when our speech is colonized by unknown methods Reframing technologization of speech as new strategies towards marketing and capitalism Use of social media to establish new parameters for discourse in a determined language
22
MCCOMMUNICATION AND NEGOTIATION FOR MEANING McCommunication: what is this? What is Negotiation for meaning? SLA connection: sociolinguistic modifications of speech Social media: McCommunication is the representation of language systems imposed by globalizing tools, like social media networks McCommunication is also global languages: signs, linguistic units, imagery and tools for global understanding SLA: all comes from a determined language, the one we are learning

McCommunication UNDERSTANDING THE LANGUAGE NEGOTIATION FOR MEANING TRANSFERING INFORMATION BETWEEN INTERACTION MODIFICATING SPEECH TO MAKE COMMUNICATI ON POSSIBLE LANGUAGE AS A SYSTEM WHICH BECOMES MORE “VISUAL”. NOWADAYS GENERATIONS ESTABLISH CODES RELATED TO IMAGERY MORE THAN THROUGH ALPHABETICALLY CODED MESSAGES COMPREHENSION OF THE ACTUAL MESSAGE, NO MATTER IF THIS HAS BEEN UTTERED THROUGH IMAGES, SOUNDS, OR WORDS, THE INTENTION CAN BE DETECTED AND WITH THIS, THE MESSAGE UNDERSTOOD
