Many people use written language in less formal and relaxed way. Does this development have advantages and disadvantages?
Our world has changed a lot lately.
People
, their habits and communication
have also
changed. The main reason for such
changes is the emergence of new technologies and social networks. Live communication
has been replaced by correspondence
, and it, in turn, has acquired a new form-less formal. Of course, there are pros and cons of this
phenomenon.
A primary advantage is that it is easier for people
to understand each other using informal communication
. The human brain is designed like this
: the simpler the easier. No one will have to think about the meaning of abstruse words, complex phrases and sentences if an ordinary spoken language
is used. It is easier for people
to find a common language
without using formal communication
. The second
advantage of such
a language
is the feeling of live communication
. Even if people
communicate by correspondence
, they will feel that the person is nearby, that communication
is the same as in life. For example
, when I'm sick and can't go outside, and my friends can't come to me, we communicate in messengers, which helps me feel that I'm not alone.
But there are also
disadvantages. Firstly
, without using formal language
, people
will forget how to speak and write correctly and beautifully. They will forget how to construct their thoughts in the official language
, which will cause permanent damage to language
that the compensation will be impossible. Secondly
, sometimes a formal language
is simply necessary: for business correspondence
, work, study. Such
letters cannot be written in free form, you need to follow the rules of such
correspondence
. For example
, at the university, students write to teachers in a formal style, according to a template.
In conclusion, the phenomenon of informal communication
has benefits and drawbacks, but each language
needs both options: formal and informal.Submitted by mariyanice001 on
