The increased use of text messaging using mobile phones is larely to blame for falling standards in written English, particularly among young people, many of whom are unable to construct grammatically correct sentences. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Nowadays, lots of teenagers and young adults usually misspell words or

use

grammar incorrectly. Some people blame the widespread

use

of text messaging applications on the phone, but I disagree with

this

opinion. In my perspective, our today’s rushing lifestyle and human’s laziness are the culprit of

this

problem.

Firstly

, in the present, people live in a quicker lifestyle compared to the past,

salarymen

rush into their offices and commuters walk faster in order to reach their destinations in no time. Life is accelerated, same as the way we communicate to each other.

For example

, the

use

of the word “OK” which derived from “All clear”. In the past, it was not commonly used and

also

seen as uneducated, but these days, it seems that “OK” or “Okay” are vital for replying to lots of our conversations.

Secondly

, since most people are created to innovate things that could make our life easier and

this

is the result of our laziness. Lots of acronyms are the evidence which

illustrate

Suggestion

illustrates

how we utilise our creativity to talk or write a letter to each other.

For instance

, lots of youngsters and even some older people would prefer to

use

“ASAP”

instead

of “as soon as possible” or “u”

instead

of “you”.

However

,

this

type of English usage may give us consequences,

such

as less ability to

use

complex grammatical structures or inability to be adept at using English.

Lastly

, I do not think that text messaging using various mobile phones could undermine our ability to

use

English properly.

Instead

, it is possible that our lackadaisical traits within our body and swift lifestyles are causes of growing grammatical errors.
