| Tartalmi kivonat: | While the volume of literature of the mobile phone has been increasing at a speedy rate, for some reason, the impact of mobile communication on language and language use has not or little become a concern for linguistic research. At the same time, there is considerable public and media interest in the issue of the "disruptive" effect of the spreading of mobile phoning on language use or the sending of SMSs on spelling, etc.) In this article I briefly summarise the reason why it is not worth dealing with the effects of mobile communication on the linguistic system, and why it is far more expedient to focus on the social aspects of language if we are concerned with the relationship between the mobile phone and language. I argue that mobile phone communication is a close "imitation" of unmediated natural communication and being studying it helps us to learn more about the nature of natural human language. The research of mobile communication remarkably contributes to the social reconstruction of pre-literary patterns of language use, such as the widening of secondary orality; a greater acceptance of non-standard language varieties, leading to the weakening of linguistic elitism, and thus the reinforcement of the original, identity marking function of language. Mobile communication enables us to get closer to realising the fact that the primary function of language is to sustain human relationships and not the expression of thought. It also facilitates the acceptance of the fact that 'understanding' is, in fact, a process that is utterly impossible to realise, instead to be measured by a scale. Studying mobile communication can also make us see that the degree of'understanding' between communicating partners is far more dependent on their shared cultural and personal knowledge as well as on the proximity of their actual interpretations than on explicit linguistic elements. |
