"Le Langage SMS"

By Cédrick Fairon, Jean René Klein, Sébastien Paumier
Published by Louvain University Press (PUL)

The book presents a corpus-based study on the the language used in  
texting (SMS language). Thanks to the 'Faites don de vos SMS à la  
science' project, the authors collected over 75,000 French SMS. In  
this book, they explain the corpus development methodology they  
followed. Then, they propose a first analysis of these data on the  
basis of statistically relevant indicators.
