On Degree Zero Deviation and its Application to “Disvoweling” in English Short Message

借用我国学者王希杰的零度偏离理论,分析英语手机短信语言中的"去元音化"现象,指出"去元音化"是英语短信语言中的另类缩略方式,是对现有缩略语的拼写方式的变异和突破,是对常规缩略法零度的偏离。如何在使用"去元音化"缩减字符数与认知之间找到平衡,有效运用零度偏离理论的方法论原则,最大限度发挥"去元音化"的作用,是我们要进一步探索的课题。

Employing the theoretical framework from the field of rhetoric, the disemvoweling of English short message is analyzed.
