Resumo: The renowned linguist David Crystal, Emmeritus Professor at the University of Wales, in this interview to Mike Pilewski, provides answers to crucial questions on the technologies’ impacts on our language. Banishing every kind of alarmism, he regards that youths and adults read when they are in front of the computer screen. Furthermore, when young people send their text messages, in fact they are writing. They would be unable to do it if they had not acquired a relative domain of orthography. As this technology is recent, it is too early to draw conclusions on their impacts on language, in particular to reach cathastrophic inferences.
