Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital communication has fundamentally altered the way language is used, learned, and adapted. While traditional linguistic structures remain, the rise of instant messaging, social media, and artificial intelligence has introduced new vocabulary, syntax, and discourse patterns. This paper explores how digital communication influences linguistic change, the rise of multimodal language use, and the implications for education and social interaction. From the increasing prevalence of emoji-based communication to the restructuring of syntax in online discourse, the digital era is shaping language in ways that challenge traditional linguistic norms.
