Abstract

This study focuses on the phenomenon of cross-cultural transmission and variation of English internet buzzwords in the context of social media. By analyzing the characteristics of social media, cross-cultural transmission mechanisms, types and causes of variation, it explores their impacts on cross-cultural communication. The research finds that social media has promoted the rapid transmission and variation of English internet buzzwords. This variation not only enriches language forms but also poses challenges to cross-cultural communication. The study aims to provide theoretical support for cross-cultural communication practices and linguistic research.
