1.  In my opinion i feel social network affects our language alot. The reason i feel this is the fact that millions of peoples have cell phones and the internet at their finger tips. The reason i say cell phones can change our language is the fact that teens alone can send Average 2,270 text messages alone in a Month!! thats incredible. to believe that we onl;y used to send Letters maybe once a week if we were lucky. This is changing our language because we text and are in a hurry so we shorten words and use slang. Noone really speaks proper english on cell phones and its killing a language that is growing with us.
2.  In my honest opinion it is reducung the need to know English. When people talk online or through text messages like i said before, we kill words and only abviviate it to our true desire such as later, people type "L8R" or even say  i love you people write "ILY." The language we use today will never compare to the language our four fathers used before us. The language they used actually made you look professional and feel good about yourself. Todays language makes you dumber. Its a sad thing because i have a younger brother and to think this is the world he is going to grow up in and the knowledge he is going to learn, its not very pleasing at all! People around the world wont need to learn english because if they know the basics they just have to sound out the words and they will know what we are saying such as this"PPL", that abreviation means people. English language is being killed more and more each day!
