Social media slang
Social media has spoilt our ability to write using correct language.
We
text "slms" instead of "Assalaamualaikum". Instead of writing with
respect to an elder or family member by writing "How are you?",
we text "How r u"?
Often the text message is written so
haphazardly that we cannot understand what is being said. This leads to
problems and misunderstandings. Sometimes, clarification has to be
sought from the sender.
Our modern forms of communication have advanced, but our etiquette of communication has deteriorated.
We need to reconsider our basic values. These should never be lost no matter how busy we may be.
Respect, dignity, clarity, honesty and care should govern our texts, whatapps, posts and blogs.
