The Sociolinguistics of Digital Englishes introduces core areas of
sociolinguistics and explores how each one has been transformed by
the current era of digital communication and the Internet.
Addressing the changing dynamics of English(es) in the digital age,
this ground-breaking book: discusses the spread of English and its
current status as a global language; demonstrates how key concepts
such as language change, speech communities, gender construction
and code-switching are affected by digital communications; analyzes
examples of the interaction of Englishes and social media such as
Facebook, Twitter and Urban Dictionary; and provides questions for
discussion and further reading with each chapter. Accessible and
innovative, this book will be key reading for all students studying
sociolinguistics and digital communication or with an interest in
language in the globalized multimedia world.
