Abstract

Meaningful examples of signs of expressive language in chat messages which are interesting from different points of view have been compiled in this study. It is demonstrated that Basque youth are creating their own code for Internet communication in the Basque language. Some components of this type of function (which are used together with other types of functions) were also gathered. Said components are linguistic resources to convey expressiveness (lexical, morphological, palatalization…) and graphic resources which have become almost compulsory in chat communication (through a combination of symbols, and emoticons).
