The difference is that although "XXLiterature" is not a literary form, it has a clear mark of network literature, which corresponds to it in network literature, and its related discussions often become hot topics in the network literature community.

For example, "Versailles Literature" and the "privilege literature" known as "Versailles Literature 2.0" are interpreted as low-key display on the one hand, and on the other hand, they are accused of being well versed in the network's cool essays; "I know you like me" and other "girl literature" characterized by condescending and affectionate language, also known as greasy literature and domineering literature; with strong psychological quality and the ability to force self-strategy to respond to the other party’s cold words, blindly Dedicated and obedient "humble literature" is considered to have the characteristics of youth and painful literature; in the eyes of many netizens, "pumping literature" is basically equated with hypocritical literature.

　　With the development of online language and language and the development of new media platforms and short video platforms, the carnival on the Internet is no longer satisfied with the repetition of one word and one sentence, but gradually takes the form of "×× literature". Diverse styles of imitation.

　　"××文学" provides a template or phrase to make a slogan

　　"XXLiterature" seems to be an ordinary funny joke, but it is accidentally broken. In fact, cultural hotspots are inextricably linked with social development and public sentiment.

It is the abstract product of real life, the concentrated release of social emotions, the blooming of self-deprecation and critical consciousness, and the public expresses resonance, releases emotions, ridicules injustice, criticizes chaos, and walks with the times in a way similar to literature.

　　Looking back at the popularity and dissemination of various “×× literature”, it is not difficult to find that its dissemination motivation is mostly due to the long-term suffering of some people, but also lacks the generalized problem and anxiety of catharsis.

　　Compared with the output and dissemination of online buzzwords, "XXLiterature" has more room for self-expression and extension.

Netizens do more than simple repetition, but diversify expressions in various forms of imitation, and often interpret the basic characteristics and expressions of "XX Literature" in detail, and imitate and extend them on this basis.

For example, netizens interpreted "Versailles Literature" as "carelessly contrived, pretending to be troubled to show off, wanting to refuse and blaming", "using the lowest-key words, show off the highest-profile."

In the process of playing with the trend of "Fanxue" and "privilege literature", there are not only format-fill-in-the-blank ridicule, but also short video performance interpretation, which extends a series of irony.

For example, the basic sentence of "privilege literature" is: "Since privilege is mentioned, I have to talk about where my arrogance is... I have written all of my arrogance here." It was originally advertised as a sense of superiority." "Literature", but in the spread, "I drink yogurt and don't lick the yogurt cover" and "I bought a cup of milk tea for 17 yuan with full money" content with jokes and irony.

　　Pervasive heat stalks may erode the language system

　　There have been controversies about Internet buzzwords for a long time. Some people worry that irregular buzzwords will pollute the language and erode the language system of young people.

Such worries are not unreasonable. With the widespread spread of Internet buzzwords, some children’s essays such as "Yalishan Da", "Aolige", "886" and "3Q" and other confusing words appeared in their essays. Some words that adults do not understand have aroused social attention.

And “×× Literature” also has a similar risk. Some people’s cognition of literature actually stays in “Versailles Literature”, “Humble Literature”, “Girl Literature”, and “Cackling Literature”, which makes people dumbfounded.

　　As a kind of online social language among young people, "XXLiterature" is easy to copy and imitate. Whether it is filling in the blanks to make a sentence or shooting the same short video, there is almost no barrier to entry.

Netizens copy, imitate, and spread based on the same meme (the basic unit of culture, passed through non-genetic means, especially through imitation), and related topics have gradually become part of their lives.

As a template for complaints, carnival-making phrases, "XX Literature" has played a role in enlivening the Internet atmosphere, alleviating anxiety, and smoothing expression channels.

However, in the era of traffic, netizens' blind follow-up will inevitably lead to grandstanding and vulgarization, and the hidden worries brought by cultural hot spots are also worthy of attention.

　　The rapid development of the Internet has enabled us to have both the real world and the virtual world. WeChat chat and video review have become the basic way of life for most people. Internet language and language have also widely affected everyone. Real language life and The boundaries of virtual language life are constantly being dispelled.

We have to beware of the Internet buzzwords and "XX Literature" under the mud and sand, especially when it concerns young people and children.

If you just use the "XX Literature" template to laugh at yourself, entertain yourself and relax, or even critiquely resist vanity, superiority, deformity in love, and excessive hypocrisy, it is naturally understandable.

However, once the game crosses the line, imitates vanity, indulges in the "xx literature" style, and even brings the Internet hot stalk into study and life without distinguishing it, it is likely to cause confusion in the language system, and the reality and the Internet, written and spoken language are indistinguishable. limit.

Some netizens said, "If the use of Internet language and language is prohibited, I will probably not speak anymore." It is not alarmist.

　　Internet buzzwords are updated quickly, and a new kind of "×× literature" is often caught off guard.

Netizens vent, criticize, and sometimes take the lead during the carnival. The media, schools, and parents should pour cold water and guide them.

True literature and art have the power of transforming people like beautiful scenery. Since "XX Literature" has traveled in the world under the name of "literature", it should also give full play to its value to warm the world.
