It is often observed that in modern English no political movement has created an internet jargon with the speed and range of the alt-right. Recently, however, we are seeing a specifically misogynist strand of this jargon shoot up, coming from the growing online anti-feminist network known as the Manosphere, and specifically its popularly best known outpost of ‘incels’. The neologisms being produced by incels have come to form a true cryptolect, developing at a rate that almost escapes linguistic description; at the same time, the elements of this cryptolect are quickly infiltrating broader popular culture and global vernacular contexts, from social media to Urban Dictionary (Ging, Lynn & Rosati, 2020).

种族和 incels 的语言:新兴英语 cryptolect 中的比喻新词

人们经常观察到,在现代英语中,没有任何政治运动创造出具有另类右翼速度和范围的互联网行话。然而,最近,我们看到这种行话中有一种特别厌恶女性的倾向,来自不断壮大的在线反女权主义网络,称为 Manosphere,特别是其广为人知的前哨站“incels”。incels 产生的新词已经形成了真正的密码学,其发展速度几乎无法用语言描述;与此同时,这种密码学的元素正在迅速渗透到更广泛的流行文化和全球白话语境中,从社交媒体到城市词典(Ging、Lynn & Rosati,2020)。
