Abstract

Recently, as a language variant, internet buzzwords have gradually come into people’s vision. The spread of buzzwords has injected fresh elements and emotions into society and enriched people’s spiritual life. Translation has a dual purpose: one is to accurately convey the meaning of the source text, and the other is to share the experience and atmosphere created by the source text. (Keiran J.Dunne. et al., 2017) Therefore, this paper will take the “Top Ten Internet Buzzwords” released by YAOWEN JIAOZI from 2015 to 2021 as the corpus, analyze the impact on the spread and development of internet buzzwords in terms of classification, cultural value, and communication from the perspective of emotional relevance, and explore the influence of internet buzzwords on the ideological and political education of contemporary teenagers to further guide the internet buzzwords to normalize, strengthen the explanatory power and expression effect of Chinese.
