Project Abstract

Abstract
The advent and widespread use of social media platforms have transformed the way individuals communicate, share information, and interact with one another. This research project aims to investigate the influence of social media on language evolution, specifically focusing on how the digital environment shapes linguistic practices and patterns over time. Through a comprehensive analysis of various social media platforms and their impact on language usage, this study seeks to uncover the mechanisms through which social media influences language evolution. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the research topic, presenting the background of the study, defining the problem statement, outlining the objectives, discussing the limitations and scope of the study, highlighting the significance of the research, and presenting the structure of the research along with the definition of key terms. Chapter 2 comprises a detailed literature review that explores existing research on the relationship between social media and language evolution. This chapter will analyze ten key studies and theories related to the topic, providing a comprehensive overview of the current state of knowledge in this area. Chapter 3 focuses on the research methodology employed in this study, detailing the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, data analysis procedures, and ethical considerations. This chapter will also discuss the limitations of the chosen methodology and provide a rationale for the selected approach. Chapter 4 presents the findings of the research, based on the analysis of data collected from social media platforms and linguistic studies. This chapter will discuss seven key findings related to the influence of social media on language evolution, highlighting the patterns and trends observed in language usage. Lastly, Chapter 5 offers a conclusion and summary of the project research, summarizing the key findings, discussing the implications of the research, and providing recommendations for future studies in this area. Overall, this research project aims to contribute to the understanding of how social media shapes language evolution and provide valuable insights into the dynamic relationship between digital communication platforms and linguistic practices.
