Abstract

This study investigates the sociological dimensions of digital transformation and its impact on the Arabic language, focusing on the challenges and gaps that emerge in a rapidly evolving digital society. As cyberspace — particularly social media platforms — becomes a dominant space for communication, new linguistic forms known as "digital language" have emerged. These forms often diverge from classical Arabic and reflect deeper social shifts, including generational change, identity reconstruction, and evolving norms of expression. The study explores how digital communication reshapes linguistic practices and reflects broader transformations in Arab societies. It emphasizes the importance of preserving the Arabic language through adaptive strategies that integrate technological advancements while maintaining cultural and linguistic authenticity.
