Language is the means of expression and the main tool in the process of communication, information, and understanding. It is the repository of thoughts and feelings. It is also the tool by which man lived his/her past, communicates with his/her present, and looks forward to his/her future. Language plays a vital role in the process of communication, whose techniques are of utmost importance in the cultural and educational scene, especially since we are currently living in a digital technological development that opens wide horizons for communication between peoples, overcoming the restrictions of isolation, time, and distance, where peoples interact collectively, which led to easy access to sources of knowledge and information. Human society has become a global technological village, and the spread of the Internet with its various means has helped Social communication as a quick and immediate medium for parts of the world to meet and communicate with each other.

The digital revolution constitutes a scientific progress whose repercussions extend to all aspects of contemporary life. This has led to formulating new patterns of reality. Being the store of thought and the bridge of communication between multiple cultures, and the most important tool of communication between people, regardless of their races, intellectual, ideological, and ethnic affiliations, all languages have been influenced by this tremendous development and the endless flow of information.

One of the repercussions of the digital environment is the development of language and communication. Language has profoundly been influenced by the changes imposed by the digital revolution. Hence, it is facing challenges that are equivalent to the capabilities granted by digitization. This change is reflected in the educational environment, the means of communication, media, and translation. From this point of view, we extend an invitation to researchers and those interested in the fields of languages, communication, and digitization to present articles on this subject, which has overwhelmed our Arab societies.
