Recent research has revealed that the English Language is currently evolving at a faster rate than ever - leaving the old folk outside of the community of teens, just unable to understand.

Social media and instant messaging services were found to be the biggest explanation for pushing English Language towards a point where emoticons and slang terms are beginning to replace actual written words. And it is this massive influence that leaves bewildered parents so unable to understand the way that their teens talk.
Twitter - a social media site where you can express your thoughts using only 140 characters - is one of the most used sites by teens; with an everage of 320 M users; 80% on mobile devices. _______________________________________________________________________________
