Technological impact on language usage among the youth (How language usage in personal space is slipping over formal space)

Image
- C. Laldinfeli Social Media have shortened the usage of our sentences and words because of limit of spaces. We try to reflect our thoughts, ideas and opinions with the least number of characters. For instance, Twitter allows us to share views and opinions within the limit of 140 characters which compels us to become more concise and to get our messages to other users with a limited number of letters.
