CMC includes technologies through which not only is language transmitted, but cultures are formed, ideologies are shaped, power is contested, and sociolinguistic boundaries are crossed and blurred. The volume therefore examines the English language in particular in CMC – what it looks like, what it accomplishes, and what it means to speakers.Topics in English linguistics ;Volume 93.CommunicationComputer networksEnglish languageData processingSociolinguisticsComputer-Mediated Communication.English.Sociolinguistics.CommunicationComputer networks.English languageData processing.Sociolinguistics.428.00285HF 148BVBrvkSquires Lauren(Linguist),MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910822892203321English in computer-mediated communication3963517UNINA
