A NEW LANGUAGE?
www.diariolaprimeraperu Del castizo
English exhibited by Cervantes and the rigorous academicísimo preserving the purest Castilian seems to be little or nothing compared to the "proposed language" that the new generations seem to have embraced social networking. Today is a language and it seems that increasingly more people are far to assess the language as the school wanted us to know and use. Haplo
!, Xq?, Tas there?, Chvr!, Ztas lok!, Are expressions that are part of this "new" menu normal linguistic, family and even essential among adolescents who engage in a regular conversation or Messenger your Facebook and Twitter. For
Expert use of such abbreviations, omission of accents and punctuation English language has degenerated into something unintelligible, except for people who use it and that eventually have become accustomed to them.
The biggest problem is that this kind of writing begins to expand physical texts and their users, mostly teens and now known as chaters, it is difficult to respect the rules of punctuation or remember what cases using letters like S and in which others use the Z or C.
hexo x x you and you
The international mobile operators Movistar, Orange, Vodafone and Leida Msn. Net along with the Association of Internet Users AUI, undertook a project last year to create a new dictionary to be named Cyber \u200b\u200bhexo x x you that you and explain the new terms arising from the virtual language and meaning. This new language has its own spelling and allowed licenses such as the absence of the compound tenses h and the elimination of commas, accents and vowels.
Another feature of this dictionary is that people learn to understand this new way of communicating because young people are leading creators and connoisseurs of the new language that produces the distinction of individual groups, but older people are not familiar with its operation. However, this initiative has been severely criticized because the background of this dictionary is to sell more phones, and that text messaging is also widely used such language, and this leads to bad manners and promote a misuse of language.
linguistic revolution
For some linguists, the deformation of words is an inevitable development to enrich the language. For others, disregard for spelling and the alleged precariousness of language are things the modern world.
to David Crystal, professed at the University of Wales, the use of abbreviations is a creative mechanism and it is normal that this phenomenon is developed because the web is a new linguistic environment much more dynamic than the traditional writing and that these new forms of communication and writing after the arrival of social networks are part of a "linguistic revolution" that has helped children, youth and adults practice more writing but, for some, with less quality.
Manual English for social networks
However, there are other entities that are concerned about the emergence of this new way of communicating as Fundéu (Foundation of Urgent English) has decided to create the first manual in English for social networks that will aim to make a good use of language in Facebook, Twitter and other networks social.
This style manual is intended to encompass not only some of the most basic and fundamental concepts of the English language, but to adopt a variety of changes and developments that arise in the virtual world, so the end result will be a document so sufficiently broad and tolerant of new expressions, even have a chapter devoted entirely to Twitter which will give advice and recommendations to make good use of English without exceeding the limit of 140 characters that this network is limited.
This particular form of transmission is identified as "communication of the millennium" and its main feature should be faster because we live in a world in a hurry and can not stop, but put a comma and write instead of steel to not take off half an hour or less. Our language has rules and we respect them, not that we are less fashionable, just show our culture and we celebrate all the April 23 Day of the English Language. Posted 26/04/2011
