Can you understand this sentence? If you can’t, don’t feel too bad:neither can the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework.This is Netspeak:the language of computerized communication found on Internet.To newcomers, it can look like a completely foreign language.So, what is the “translation” of the sentence above? My summer holidays were a complete waste of time.Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three screaming kids face to face.I love New York;it’s great.
Schoolteachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming the English language.Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes can be seen in students’ writing.They fear the language could become corrupted(面目全非的).
Everyone should just relax, say linguists(语言学家).They believe Netspeak is in fact more of a good thing.David Crystal, from the University of Wales, argues that Netspeak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again.However, Netspeakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English.Learning to write proper English is a must for their future.
