In my opinion I think English language is definitely evolving. Technology has become an important part of our lives. We live and depend on technology all the time, Mobile Phones, Laptops, Computers, and Television etc. However it’s not only because of technology that language changed, it’s also because of the media and what they influence people into reacting. Such as movies that encourage text messaging language as ‘cool’ or ‘hip’. Because of this the younger generation are sucked into a deep hole of bad influenza.
Another reason why language is evolving is because of the advertising of promotions and deals from a network company such as maybe Vodafone or Telecom. These companies advertise unlimited or cheap text messaging promotions which again encourages the public to text in phonetic language. But is it the companies fault again, no, it’s not. It’s still the public choosing to write the way they prefer to. Even adults enjoy communicating in text messaging language; the only difference is they don’t forget their English academic skills.
I’m definitely not against text messaging language, because I still get caught up doing it myself. But to make the world a better place for English Language to survive in the world, we still need to know our English academic skills. We need to be aware of the simplest rules in English which is what I introduced for learning to write academically; English Grammar, English Spelling and English Punctuation and How to write a paragraph.
In conclusion, I feel that English language has evolved and that is to Slang language (combination of text messaging, relay chatting and social networking). And in addition English Language may be in trouble due to people not knowing the basic structure of the English Language.
