Youth As Language Incubators
I’m really interested in emerging forms of communication such as emojis and gifs, which have their birthplace in the world of digital technology. Generation Z (those born between 1997– onwards) and Generation Y, or millennials, especially late stage (1985–mid 90’s), are extremely conversant in the use of emoji or other net-speak shorthand (yr, tho, lyk, brt, tfw), and are responsible for a huge number of new words, and even word ‘up-cycling’. (My younger sister is 16 and pretty much speaks/writes another ‘dialect’–it’s awesome). From research, and also experience, youth are the ones who evolve languages. They spend more time experimenting with it, and it’s also a form of social differentiation. (Pretty interested in that, so more on this later.)
Survival of the Fittest
Languages like to follow the path of least resistance. As they continue into later generations, they gain structure and become easier to learn, which increases their transmissibility. Structure emerges as a function of social pressures; whatever sounds the best, is most sticky and descriptive becomes part of the language.
