| Sumario: | The aim of the article was to study the functional, linguistic-pragmatic, and semantic aspects of youth slang in Internet communication in English and Chinese. The following empirical, component discursive, comparative, linguistic and pragmatic, adding statistical, and descriptive methods were used to achieve the goal and fulfill the objectives of the research. The study identified the predominant conceptospheres of slang in the youth English-language Internet space. These are: “education”, “rest”, “love”, “appearance”, “emotion”, “drinking”, “personality characteristics”, “internet”. The most numerous among them are “education” and “recreation”. Chinese-language discourse in Internet communication is presented less clearly than in English. The use of a large number of slangs in the Internet space is due to the need to express individuality and the desire for conciseness in verbal communication among young people. Likewise, there is a growing trend toward the emergence, spread, and use of Internet slang to denote the means and tools of distance learning. The results and conclusions of the study can be used in classes in lexicology, sociology, intercultural communication, culturally oriented linguistics, and English lessons.
