A INFLUÊNCIA DA INTERNET NA ESCRITA

Abstract

Writing has been in humanity for thousands of years. It fulfills the role of communicating, interacting and recording human knowledge, actions and intentions. Over time, it gained structures and norms that within many sciences make the requirement of language obey its coherence and standardization as a science. However, it should be noted that within a writing, there are several genres such as the guidelines of a manual, medicine leaflet and also the digital genre or as they say in Internetese. Each such genre fulfills a distinct function. Its use obeys a specific place and requirement. Nobody writes a letter to a friend using a cultured, classical and highly elaborated language, nor should they use a script that is present in social media in an entrance exam. Therefore, schools must lead students to understand this issue, so that they are not put into writing at school, which would not meet the standard Brazilian standard. To understand this entire context, the research used the bibliographic methodology and the qualitative method, which presented different results. The school must perceive the digital language genre as a mechanism for reflection among students, but not to curb it, as students would not understand why not to use it, but they must be led to understand what writing is, forms of writing and when to use one type or another in a given situation.
