In today’s society, it’s hard to hear people use proper grammar in English because throughout the years, we get more advanced and modernized. Society changed in how we communicate with people because we are diverse and technology, such as cell phones and computers, are more advance than twenty years ago.
The society is full of different types of ethnicity. There are a lot of people from different countries coming into the United States. They bring their cultural heritage and native language that it influences others that helps change the society. Some families may speak one or two languages and sometimes they mix it together forming one, like English and Tagalog.
When cell phones with text and computers with internet didn’t exist, people would communicate through mail. People would write letters with full complete sentences and correct punctuations while in today’s society, most young adults text on their cell phones using abbreviations and different spelling of words to get to the point so it would be simple. But people text so much, that they get use to the way they write to people. They forget how to spell correctly and write grammatically correct. And it’s the same with computers on the internet. We send other people emails like how we send other people text messaging. We get so use to it that it becomes a habit and we forget about grammar just like if a person’s first language is Spanish and he or she also speaks English as their second, the person forgets their first native language because he or she is surrounded by English that they mainly use it.
We evolved from no cell phones and computer to using it everyday as an important device of communication that we lose the traditional way of speaking proper grammar.
