【范文】 Internet Slang
Internet slang such as CU and 3X , enjoy great popularity among teenagers nowadays. In fact, it has become so popular that many items now cross from computer-mediated communication to face-to-face communication. Some teenagers even use them in spoken communication as well as in essay writing.
People have different opinions towards this phenomenon. Some people say that the crossover is a brand new variety of language evolving and will enrich the language. But others disagree, saying that these new words, being short form for the existing, long-used phrase, don t enrich anything; they just shorten it. Furthermore, even if the slang such as CU and 3X and becomes common in spoken English, their total effect on language will be trivial.
In my opinion, Internet slang has little effect on language in general, but will greatly influence individuals, especially teenagers language development. It is because overuse of Internet slang will lead to their poor writing, being lacks in spellings, grammar and proper punctuations. That will drastically reduce chances of employment after they graduate and seek jobs. So, for the sake of their future, teenagers had better refrain from Internet slang.
