Abstract

Second language writers can adapt their creative skills to acquire and reflect new knowledge with fewer sophisticated words through more contextual and inclusive language. This process is called using the poetic function of language in a second language. One way to achieve teaching the poetic function of language as part of creative writing activities to second language learners is modeling digital writing in creative and innovative forms. This research study contextualizes a digital, innovative, and culturally sensitive language learning model that will enhance digital natives' learning experience through creative digital writing practices.

The Artistic Alteration In Second Language Meaning And Use

Poetic language is thus not a brand of the standard. This is not to deny the close connection between the two, which consists in the fact that, for poetry, the standard language is the background against which is reflected the esthetically intentional distortion of the linguistic components of the work, in other words, the intentional violation of the norm of the standard. ~Mukařovský, 2014, p. 43
