Abstract
This article examines the stylistic characteristics of the English language as used in social media. It focuses on the transformation of traditional linguistic norms under the influence of digital communication. The study highlights key stylistic features such as informality, abbreviation, multimodality, and creativity. Special attention is paid to expressive means, including emojis, slang, and stylistic devices like metaphor and irony. The research demonstrates that social media has created a new form of language that reflects modern cultural and communicative trends.
