Specyfika komunikacji językowej w mikroblogowym środowisku komunikacyjnym (na przykładzie serwisu Blip)
Specificity of the linguistic communication in the microblogging communication environment (on the example of the Blip service)

Summary/Abstract: The present article is devoted to the language used by the users of a microblogging service. The researchers of the Internet language do not give much attention to this issue, although the users of popular microblogs have developed their own variant of language in terms of style, which is worth closer examination. The author discusses the lexis whose distinguishing element are tags (key words). The effectiveness of communication requires extensive familiarity with them. Tags often form a secret linguistic code of the microblog’s users. Additionally, the text accounts for the syntax and inflection characteristic for the language of microblogging services. Technical solutions require the application of special devices, including the ones absent from all other communication environments thus far (e.g. abandonment of inflection). Although the language used in microblogging services has certain features characteristic for other communication environments on the Internet, it differs from them in other features specific only for itself.
