Unit two.

Vocabulary in context.

Linguistics.

Our evolving forms of communication.

Technology has allowed us to communicate with friends and acquaintances through email, texting, and chat windows.

Interestingly enough, not only have the methods of communicating increased, but the amount of typing has decreased.

Since the late nineteen sixties, the internet has revolutionized the way we communicate.

It eventually brought about internet jargon, which is used to communicate online as well as with our mobile phones, which were invented just after the internet.

The nature of texting, which came about in the early nineteen nineties, has encouraged us to use abbreviations rather than typing out the whole words.

Instead of, see you around, talk to you later, and by the way, the terms see ya, T T Y L, and B T W, are now a part of our daily vernacular to replace these phrases.

In websites, we often see F A Q and M O T D instead of frequently asked questions and message of the day, because these terms are now so commonplace, people recognize them immediately.

In this era of instant communication, we simply don't feel the need to write everything out anymore.
