Are Emails and Text Messages Destroying the Language?

Some people say that text messages, twittering and emails are an accepted part of the language

we use in our everyday lives. Other say that they are destroying our ability to spell and write

properly in a relatively short period of tome high-tech gadgets have become integral part of our

lives. Some people say they are an accepted part of our lives, other disagree.

Technology is rapidly developing day by day to make life easier and more engaging. Even

though many people think all those inventions, especially the communication ones has many

negative impacts on the daily life of people such as it threatening the language, I think pros of it

outweigh the cons. Also, I do not agree with that the e-mails and the text messages are destroying

the language at all.

To begin with, most people use e-mail to switch formal letters, not to chat with friends because

e-mail is more complicated than the other applications such as Messenger. Moreover, writing

tons of e-mail is a really good practice of formal written language. Because most crucial letters

and proposals sent by e-mail, a person who sends it must be good at grammar and vocabulary in

order to give a great impression for the person who read their letter. I am a typical teenager who

chats with my friends a lot on the internet and I can be the best example on it. I only send an e-

mail to the college I am interested in or someone to get an advice. Because those e-mails are

crucial for my life, my mail must be mistake free.

Furthermore, even though the text messages shortened from the actual one to save time, it does

not change the structure of the sentence. Because the structure is vital for the reader to
understand, it must remain the same at all time. In every language, the little changes can alter

meaning considerably. For instance, if we try to explain the event that happened in the past,

people need to use past tenses of English to give the right picture to the person or people who

read it.
