Shanghai bans Chinese Internet slang terms
The language police in Shanghai, China’s largest city, plan to ban those and other Chinese Internet slang terms (网络语言) from classrooms, official documents, and publications produced in the city, newspapers reported Friday. “On the Web, Internet slang is convenient and satisfying, but the mainstream media have a responsibility to guide proper and legal language usage,” the Shanghai Morning Post quoted city official Xia Xiurong as saying. With the increasing number of young people who use computer, chatting on line and sending messages become more and more popular. They invent, abbreviate and borrow a lot of words, such as “MM”, meaning girl, “PK” or player killer, for one’s competitor, “Konglong” or dinosaur for an unattractive woman. Several government departments of city have been given the right to carry on the regulation by monitoring the official documents, news broadcasts and textbooks in Shanghai. The results of their supervision(监督) are expected to be made known to the public regularly. Yet many young people say the nation’s language needs to change with time and Internet slang can be a source of new vocabulary.

Should we ban the Internet slang?
With more and more people chatting and sending messages online, Internet slang terms are becoming popular. But news came that such online languages will be forbidden in some Shanghai’s formal publications.
As we all know, speed on the Internet is very important. It is these online words that meet this demand. In addition, using these Internet slang terms is a way of keeping up on current Internet trends. Society is always changing, and language needs to keep pace with time.
But the problem is that too much use of Internet slang may be a dangerous sign that the country’s younger generation won’t know what real Chinese is. Besides, some students’ handwriting is filled with Internet slang, which makes it difficult to understand for parents and those who don’t chat online.
As far as I am concerned, we should be more careful in official documents and textbooks, while in other settings such terms shouldn’t be forbidden。
