"Txting Is Killing Language.. JK !!!" by John McWhorter
Summary:
Writing has certain advantages
when you write, it is a conscious process because you can look backwards. Speech
is much looser, much more telegraphic, it is very different from writing. So,
the languages is speech. As history has gone by the natural for there to be a
certain amount of bleed between writing and speech. For example, in this era
when someone give the speech to basically talk like writing. Someone
who talking like writing have to type the text first, if she/he do not make by
herself, she/he ask people to write what wanna talk, it’s mean the receiver of
writing have to have good receive the message and quickly. Texting is very
loose in its structure, no one think about capital letters or punctuation in
one text. In the new kind of language there is new structure coming up. For
example, in texting a convention which is LOL, now the generally think LOL is
“Laughing out load” but if you text now or someone is aware of substrate of
texting it’s become different meaning. In short, he told that texting these
days is that what we are seeing is a whole new way of writing that young people
are developing.
