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 He makes a satirical comment of the government anti -driving while texting sign, regarding it to be outdated.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.

My paper was completed 3 days earlier than I had requested it. It needed no revisions and was much better than I had imagined. Thanks, EssaysEmpire.com! |

Dear EssaysEmpire.com, I have never used a writing service like yours before. None of the ones I have tried previously offered the kind of guarantees that you offer. I even bought a paper that was plagiarized once. I never have to worry about things like that with EssaysEmpire.com! Thanks a million! |

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. |

Dear Sirs: I have just placed my third order from EssaysEmpire.com this term. I feel confident that my paper will be written on time and that the quality of it will be out of the ballpark. The first two papers I ordered from you got A+ marks, and I know this one will, too. It is so great to be able to sit back and concern myself with my reading and exams while you do the difficult writing projects for me. That is really great. You guys are a class act! |

Thanks goes out to the writer who filled my order. He did everything right the first time around. I had to ask for one tiny revision, but that was my own fault for leaving it out of the directions. |

I submitted my order as a ‘rush order’. I only had 2 days to get my paper finished and I just felt like I was sinking. I didn’t understand the material I was writing about, and I didn’t know what I was going to do. My friend recommended EssaysEmpire.com. I had very little lost by attempting to use this writing service, so I did. It was an excellent move on my part, because, not only was my paper finished on time. It was also excellently written. I will always be grateful to my friend for recommending your service. It is wonderful. |

Dear EssaysEmpire.com, I would like to put in a good word for Writer #32412. He was really under the gun. I didn’t give him much notice because I had my dates mixed up and my paper was due sooner than I expected. He didn’t let me down, though. He wrote until the paper was perfected. I handed it in on time got an A+ and wish your writers could accept tips, because I would leave this guy a HUGE one! |

I ordered two papers from you at once. Both of them had strict deadlines and not that much time left. Your writers managed to get both papers to me on time, and both of them received high marks. I am so happy about this! |

I was trying to choose between EssaysEmpire.com and another online writing service and I didn’t know which one to pick. Then, I began to read reviews. I didn’t read even one thing negative about EssaysEmpire.com, and the other site was fraught with complaints. I went with EssaysEmpire.com, and it turned out that all the good things I had read about the service were true. My paper was fully guaranteed, but it was A-1 quality. The customer service people were great. The prices were right. Now, I am a devoted fan. When I need help with my writing, I go straight to EssaysEmpire.com! |
