Mc Whorter believes that texting “degradates written language” because he deliberates that texting is not really a written language. He also adds that texting bear a resemblance to spoken language due to the fact that it evades punctuation and capitalization. It has a tendency to to be looser and telegraphic, as well as less reflective.
