Reach is a near-Earth colonial planet in the best-selling game and novel "Halo". It is also the UNSC (United Nations Space Command) )’s headquarters location. Because it is rich in titanium, the raw material of Class A titanium alloy, the main material used to make human space battleship armor, Reach is also the production base of UNSC large battleships.

Due to the widespread influence of "Halo" in China, "Reach" has also become a popular Internet term.

2. The Qing Dynasty has fallen

This word comes from a line in the time-travel TV series "Nine-Five Supreme" produced by Hong Kong Television Broadcasting Co., Ltd. in 2002, played by Jiang Hua After Emperor Yongzheng traveled to modern times and learned of the demise of the Qing Dynasty, he said: "The Qing Dynasty is dead?

Derived disciplines of Internet language

With the deepening of research on Internet language, a new language discipline—Weblinguistics or Netlinguistics) was born.

This subject was first proposed by Professor Zhou Haizhong, a well-known Chinese scholar, in the article "A New Linguistic Discipline - Internet Linguistics" published in 2000. Since then, cyberlinguistics has attracted academic attention.

Dr. Postguero, a well-known Spanish scholar, made a relatively comprehensive and systematic discussion of cyberlinguistics in his monograph "Cyberlinguistics: Language, Discourse and Thought on the Internet" published in 2003. . In 2005, Professor David Crystal, a well-known British linguist, published the article "The Scope of Cyberlinguistics", which made an in-depth discussion on the impact of the Internet and information technology on language. Internet linguistics has become a hot spot in linguistic research, and its theoretical system and research methods still need to be continuously improved.
