Recent linguistic studies demonstrate that Internet communication and social media platforms actively accelerate language evolution and foster the rapid spread of neologisms and slang.
The claim states that Internet communication has measurably accelerated and influenced patterns of language change. Papers [1] and [3] directly investigate and support this assertion by examining lexical innovations, word-formation models, and the role of social media in accelerating linguistic changes such as internet slang. The remaining papers cover unrelated topics such as clinical communication, neural inhibition, and digital health, and are thus omitted. Because the supporting evidence directly affirms the claim without contradiction, the verdict is SUPPORTED.
