- Abstract
In the last few years, the use of electronic correspondence has been replacing traditional letter writing. This study analyses the linguistic and stylistic implications that this tendency implies by observing the characteristics of the new cybergenres that would be equal to the traditional formal letter. The corpus of this research is formed by emails exchanged in academic settings and commentaries posted on the social networking website Facebook, a platform of great relevance in the academic world nowadays. The postulates that email and every communication through the Internet imply discourse strategies aimed at highly oral and informal texts will be questioned by the findings of the analysis of this corpus.
