My Language and Technology investigation.
In the guardian article '2b or not 2b?' that we looked at in class it, it says 'several organisations forbid the use of abbreviations, knowing that many readers will not understand them.' I have decided to investigate this by looking at clips from programmes such as big brother and the X factor which include comments sent in by the viewers to evaluate whether this is true and to what extent. I haven't been able to do a trial related to this today because the database wouldn't allow me to access Youtube so I will need to do this at home. I have recorded one episode of big brother that I will also use.
