Albulena Dehari, Lindita Skenderi

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to see the way young people communicate and how they speak to each other, in this topic we are first discussing the genesis of when the process of childish speech begins which on the beginning relies mainly in their mother tongue and then stems from imitating the language of other family members and the relative social environment. This talk has been a major influence for young people by being adopted by the female gender and becoming part of their vocabulary. The methods we have used for this paper are descriptive and experimental methods, that we not only used them separately, but also in conjunction with each other, we used the experimental method by doing a survey in which we asked some questions regarding the communication that young people use with each other, when they are in a school environment and when they are in a social environment, we conducted this survey for the youth of the Tetovo High School of Economics and the students of the Faculty of Philology, Albanian language and literature and the department of English language.
