Description

This book explores how multilingualism is shaped by our online interactions. Carmen Lee examines how people use digital media to express themselves and connect with others in their native languages, as well as those they may not be fluent in.

Lee draws on sociolinguistics and internet linguistics to analyze the ways in which language choice, code-switching, identities, and ideologies are influenced by online multilingualism. The book covers key issues such as translation, minority languages, and online participation, using examples from a range of languages including Chinese dialects, Egyptian Arabic, Irish, and Welsh.

With its practical approach to methodology, this book is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in the intersection of multilingualism and new media. It provides valuable insights into how language is used online and offers a unique perspective on the complexities of digital communication.
