Recenzii
'The Discourse of Text Messaging is a pleasure to read. A detailed analysis of a corpus of text messages reveals how people deploy all the resources of language - from spellings and punctuation through to grammar and discourse markers - to create meanings, to construct identities and to generally 'get things done'. The wide-ranging analyses are clearly explained and engagingly written about throughout.'
'Through a meticulous investigation of a rich corpus of authentic text messages, Tagg's The Discourse of Text Messaging is by far the most comprehensive book-length study of mobile phone texting from a linguistics perspective. A must-read for anyone interested in digital discourse and communication in the mobile world.'
