Abstract

Modern language has undergone substantial modifications as a result of social media’s quick transformation of communication. This essay examines the ways in which social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok affect vocabulary, communication methods, language standards, and linguistic patterns. It looks into both beneficial and detrimental effects on vocabulary, grammar, identity, and intercultural communication. According to the study, social media encourages linguistic innovation and originality, but it also adds to informal language habits that may have an impact on traditional language proficiency. Implications for education, culture, and future linguistic study are highlighted in the work.
