 TWITTER SPEAK
• Twitter made using emoticons and short words cool for
showing feelings in a limited number of characters.
• People often use phrases like "OMG" (Oh My God) and
"ICYMI" (In Case You Missed It) on Twitter.
• Emoticons like 😂 are now common in online talk, not
just on Twitter.
• These shortcuts are now a big part of how we talk
online.
It's like a secret language everyone understands!
INCLUSIVE
LANGUAGE
Twitter has provided a platform for marginalized voices to be
heard, leading to a greater emphasis on inclusive language.
Hashtags like #BlackLivesMatter and #MeToo have sparked
important conversations and influenced the way we discuss
social issues. This shift towards inclusivity has extended to
everyday language, fostering a more conscious and equitable
approach to communication.
