Modern
forms
of communication have revolutionised our lives. However
, some people
opine modern communications implies hard copies are no longer required. I disagree with this
.
To begin
with, most current forms
of communication do not require paperwork. For instance
, responding to messages via electronic mail and on social media platforms requires typing from the keypads on an electronic device. Similarly
, there are avenues for people
to also
talk on phones by means of video or audio forms
. It is apparent the activities that can be run without penning down any information. Hence
, the idea that people
can reach one another without the need for paperwork which I disagree with.
On the other hand
, the personal desires of people
cannot be overlooked. For instance
, My father appreciates handwritten notes compared with relaying messages to him on digital platforms. He believes it communicates thoughtfulness and he especially admires the effort put into leaving notes for him. Besides
that, our ability to spell words is maintained when we do more writing on paper. This
is because digital devices have autocorrect or auto spell

Consequently
, breeding a generation with good speaking skills but poor writing of the English language. It is clear a lot of time and personal thinking goes into writing than just typing on devices which I agree is a means to show a person went the extra mile.
To sum up
, it is obvious current forms
of communication have made life easier. Even so, I disagree it should completely substitute writing on paper. Hard copies have a special way of conserving our spelling ability.Submitted by nmaureen03 on
