This study examines the semantic variations in English language and likewise highlights the position of social media such as Instagram in semantic change which is an outcome of language contact.

Instagram is a prevalent social media/ messenger which has overall provided innovative terminologies and changed meanings of various traditional English words. To analyses neologisms in Instagram, a corpus was formed comprising posts of Instagram. Python and its natural language processing libraries were used to automatically extract and pre-process the Instagram captions for annotation The most prevalent expressions used on Instagram were examined to identify whether and to what degree Instagram users are developing novel meanings of traditional English words.
