Pretty peak how 2days language has changed…

Why is slang such a big issue now when has always been a part of our diverse English language?

English language is a somewhat complex language. We have traditional English and now, recently, we have a new rapidly forming version of slang. 

Will the kids of our generation still speak like this when they are older? 

Whether the new formation of English language is good or bad is a different question.

Social media is one of main reasons why there has been such a dramatic change in our language.  The gap between the younger and older generations has never been so big; what generation needs to change? 

We should not be stuck with tradition but has the future leaders of the country taken slang too far?

Many of the young generation ‘text talk’ and Lily, from a local secondary school, says, “letters for example ‘u’ or ‘y’ sound the same as a longer word, it’s just quicker to type” so why do older people feel this is a problem? After all even middle aged people use this type of language on text. So why are we blaming teenagers? 

As slang is popular within young people and more so with adults, many school teachers are concerned. One school in Manchester is so concerned it has recently banned slang as it’s not appropriate on school grounds. "It was clear many students found it difficult to get through a sentence without saying 'innit' or 'do you know what I mean'," says Maria Nightingale, principal for operations at the Manchester Academy. "We're a business and enterprise academy. It is really important our youngsters go into the world equipped with the appropriate use of language so they are not disadvantaged." 

Although exam results have risen in the last decade, teachers are struggling to get students out of their slang habits.
