Effecting ?
At first i thought that people where right and how technology is really effecting on the English language. So because its affecting the language its also affecting the way we write and may be the way we speak. For me I thought that we were mostly be effected on our writing and how we kept changing the way write to create short words so we can write more. For example we write "U" as in you and "2" to say too,to, and two witch my self always uses. There was a time where i was younger and i was starting to learn new ways to write through Tex messaging. The reason i learn is because many people started doing so and because i had many friends they also did it and so it began to spread in most of the teenagers. Many started to cut down many words to create one word and if you didn't know it it was funny to many people because they were new to it. So it was a time were people wanted to know this type of way to write because many other would talk in this way. On the link http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-10971949 under the section "Txt Spk" explains many thing on how words are being cut down and how many new words are created were other words are not being used no more.
May be is a Normal Thing
As I kept looking for information i had saw that may be its normal that this is happening to the English language. For this reason is that the way technology is using the language to help people create new things for the society. Now it determines how people see the new things and how they absorb it and uses it. On the textbook Alway on it explains how most people are effected but the kids and teenagers are the ones who effected the most. On page 174 it had me thinking in how as time passes by the English language is adapting and how many other people have different ways in saying certain words. So is just in a way where people uses this type of ways and how they can say it. But for my opinion is that we going through a time where English is changing depending on the way people take it and how this change can be change on the way it was before or it can improve . It also explains on the link above.
