dc.description.abstractSocial media platforms have become an inevitable part of our lives, and the language used in these platforms has attracted the attention of many linguists. However, it is not very easy to collect and analyze data in these platforms, as the flow of interaction and patterns of conversation are completely different from other genres, such as books, daily spoken language, newspaper articles, etc. This book provides invaluable insight into researching language use in social media from the perspectives of both students and expert researchers in language studies. One of the key strengths of the book lies in the variety of perspectives that results from the dynamic group of expert contributors to this volume. The first four chapters of the book are dedicated to defining social media, explaining linguists’ perceptions of social media, outlining the basic principles of research in different fields, and discussing Internet ethics for research. Although these chapters give introductory information about the area, they are nonetheless informative for scholars, since these platforms are quite novel as a research area. In addition to the general introduction, researchers canbenefit from the sample case studies, which are used to illustrate the topics in the book. Beginning with Chapter 5, the rest of the book deals with qualitative and quantitative research methods that can be used for studies of social media platforms.en_US
