This study examines the linguistic features and communicative functions of English abbreviations in Internet language. Drawing on recent research in digital discourse, the paper analyzes the structural formation, pragmatic roles, and sociolinguistic implications of abbreviated forms used in online communication. The findings show that abbreviations follow systematic morphological patterns such as initialism, clipping, and phonetic substitution, while also serving as efficient tools for expressing emotions, attitudes, and social identity. The study further highlights the context-dependent interpretation of abbreviations and their integration into multimodal communication alongside emojis and other digital elements. Additionally, the global spread of English abbreviations demonstrates their role in facilitating cross-cultural interaction and linguistic innovation. Overall, the research underscores the adaptability of language in digital environments and emphasizes the importance of Internet language as a significant area of modern linguistic inquiry.
