Subject: Help needed

I need your help in one of my projects, please.


The project is about communication. We have to choose one form of communication and analyze it. I chose the txt language
The main question I want to tackle is: Is the txt language a smart way to save time (and money), or is it a step (and a contribution) towards the death of the classic language?
It is required that I have a survey and what I am thinking is that you (and three other Arabic speaking people I know) will make a wonderful specimen to have opinions. Will you do that for me? Will you fill out my questionnaire?

I also need to know what you think about the questions I included in my questionnaire please. So far I am thinking of questions like these:


1 – Do you understand txt language?
Yes No

2 – Do you like it?
Yes No

3 – Do you use it?
Only in SMS Only in messenger In those and other types of communications. (Verbal/ written)

4 – What, in your opinion is the main reason that makes people use txt language in their everyday communication?
Practicality (to save time/ money) Rebellion against (language) rules Just because it is “cool”

5 – Do you think txt language is a way of communication only used (or should only be used) by youths?

Only for youths For everybody

6 - Do u expect that a day will come when daily papers are printed in txt language?


Yes No

7 – What do you think about this statement: “texting is eroding the English language”.

I agree I disagree

8 - On the whole, do you think the trend of txt language positive or negative?

Positive Negative

One more thing, I intend to include pictures of the interviewees, so those of you who do not mind, I would appreciate e-mailing me a pic to rana84@excite.com . Those of you who do not prefer to show their pics, I would still appreciate filling the questionnaire out and sending it to the above address.

Appreciative
Rana
