By the co-author of Language Online, this book builds on the
earlier work while focusing on multilingualism in the digital
world. Drawing on a range of digital media - from email to
chatrooms and social media such as Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube
- Lee demonstrates how online multilingualism is closely linked to
people's offline literacy practices and identities, and examines
the ways in which people draw on multilingual resources in their
internet participation. Bringing together central concepts in
sociolinguistics and internet linguistics, the eight chapters cover
key issues such as: language choice code-switching identities
language ideologies minority languages online translation. Examples
in the book are drawn from both all the major languages and many
lesser-written ones such as Chinese dialects, Egyptian Arabic,
Irish, and Welsh. A chapter on methodology provides practical
information for students and researchers interested in researching
online multilingualism from a mixed methods and practice-based
approach. Multilingualism Online is key reading for all students
and researchers in the area of multilingualism and new media, as
well as those who want to know more about languages in the digital
world.
