Answer:

C. When the cell phone became popular, new texting abbreviations were added to the language.

Step-by-step explanation:

Culture generally derived from the day to day interaction that the people in society do. it's a unique things that only people within a certain generation can understand.

Since technology is a huge part of our life since the 21st century, some cultures will form alongside the innovation we often used on our day to day basis.

Texting abbreviations were a good example for this. This wouldn't exist in a society that mostly communicate on telephone lines. But in society that communicate a lot with quick texts, the use of abbreviations make sense to make the process more efficient.
