Abstract

Resistance to changes is a (erroneous) manifestation of survival instinct; but rigid materials are more prone to breakdown than flexibles ones. It is a reality that linguistic studies in the past were "new" at that moment, i.e., they belonged to "their" time. What do we, presente linguists, have to do in order not to break with tradition? The answer is straightforward: we have to study the new domains languages and the contribution of Internet to them. In this paper, I aim at propounding a series of linguistic characterisations of some units of the so-called ciberespeak, such as web, e-, .com and so on.
