2: Watch out of the words that the author chose.

a. Changes in language do not demonstrate decay, rather they indicate flexibility.
b. Emoticons are not just faces. They convey feelings.
c. The use of emoticons in language makes ideas to be better clarified. They ease the flow of conversations.
d. A symbol can communicate an entire message.
3. Reasons to support the claims
a. History shows that people have always complained about changes in language but time shows that these changes are not harmful but rather innovations.
b. Emoticons convey feelings of happiness, sadness, or anger during text communications. These symbols aid the flow of communication and clarifies ideas that would otherwise not be understood because the communicators cannot see each other physically.

In the article by Lauren Collister, she argues against the popular belief that emoticons are ruining language. She rather believes that these symbols are innovations that should be embraced by all because they ease the flow of communication.

Innovations in language are to be embraced not rejected.
