GUYS! Great quote for your essay!
I was reading the Herald Sun this morning and came across this fantastic article with a quote from Mark McCrindle (CREDIBLE). This article is in reference to the ever growing usage of internet slang and how it can be used to bully, ridicule and disguise the truth.
Quote from Mark McCrindle: "There is nothing new with youth slang, it's always been around, but in an online environment it moves very quickly and it's hard to decipher"... "It's very hard for parents to keep up, so the key is really the context of the conversations, not so much the content".
^^ Modern 2016 quote - will wow assessors and your teachers. This prove the social exclusion and secrecy function of slang
