Language and Dialect Contact
| ← A Contract | It's Mixing → |
This article highlights the evolution of the written language in mobile phones. Most mobile phone users prefer shortening their messages. This has led to emergence of a language that varies from the Standard English thus referred to as dialect. The use of the phrase “c u soon” instead of “see you soon” in messages is an example of a dialect. In an attempt to make the text message brief, the writer uses letters instead of pronunciations that correspond.Р’В
The text message is grammatically incorrect and not punctuated. In the second phrase “wat time u ova” in place of “what time will you be over” the same pattern is repeated. The author attributes this to mobile phone devices with no full key boards. He makes a satirical comment of the government anti -driving while texting sign, regarding it to be outdated. The use of corrupted English by the government in sign is an indication of how rampant this dialect is.
The author admits he still prefers well-formatted text messages despite the fact that most people send shortened messages that are grammatically incorrect. While scholars have attributed dialect to social class and regional isolation, this article brings to light the role played by modern telecommunication devices in linguistics and dialect contact. As the writer concludes, he displays uncertainty over the future of the dialect by asking a series of questions. The survival of this dialect, SMS language, will largely depend on the cellular phone users.
If they continue to use it then the language will grow and in time will have an effect on the established English language. The author views the emergence of this dialect negatively and applauds mobile phone devices equipped with full keyboards, social networks and e-mails as the way to combat it. Most scholars have associated this dialect to sluggishness and regarded it as a case where the mobile phone use prefers style over substance.

I don’t see how anyone could write a paper about something as boring as the psychology of the two year old, could make it sound so interesting, but your writers managed to pull it off. Thank you for putting forth such a concerted effort to do a good job. I really appreciate it. I will use your service again |

There are four things that I look for in a good writing service. #1. They have to be fast. A good writing service won’t miss an important deadline. #2. A good writing service will let customers actually talk to the writer who is working on their customer’s papers, so the customer can work out important details. #3. A good writing service will have a user-friendly website that is easy for the customer to use and #4, a good writing service will offer quality guarantees. EssaysEmpire.com meets all of this criteria and more. EssaysEmpire.com is the best writing service and has the reputation to prove it. I wouldn’t even consider using another writing service since experiencing the excellence that is EssaysEmpire.com! |

I appreciate the help your wring service gave me with my biology paper. I have never cared much for biology. It is a tough subject for me to grasp. This is why I needed so much help with my paper. The writer absolutely understood the whole topic and turned out work that would have made anyone proud. Thanks a million for the great paper. |

The topic for my assigned essay was very intense. It involved a lot of research and knowledge of the subject. The writer who took care of it for me seemed to be a real expert. I found that so impressive! I just had to drop a line to let you know how much I appreciated the work he did. |

I would like to say thanks to writer #48376 for doing such an astonishing job on my paper. I really gave him very little to go on. Still, he was able to do the research and come up with a champion paper for me. I am speechless. I didn’t expect anything nearly this good. |

I had a hard time articulating what my professor wanted, so I was able to speak straight to my writer. After I had explained a little bit, I could tell he understood everything. He then took the ball and ran with it, so to speak. He wrote my paper in two days and it was the picture of perfection! I am very grateful that he knew what to do and how to do it so perfectly. |
