The Russian Language In The Digital Age

Abstract

The digital age has profoundly transformed languages worldwide, influencing communication practices, linguistic norms, and cultural expression. The Russian language is no exception. The expansion of the internet, social media, digital technologies, and artificial intelligence has reshaped how Russian is used, developed, and perceived. This article examines the evolution of the Russian language in the digital era, focusing on changes in vocabulary, grammar, orthography, communication styles, and sociolinguistic dynamics. Special attention is given to online discourse, digital literacy, and the challenges and opportunities that digitalization presents for the preservation and development of the Russian language.
