In the cyberspace order, many netizens call themselves digital natives, constituting a new ethnic community outside the territorial and cultural boundaries of the physical world. They have in common what we might call the same "digital awareness". In this article we study how this digital awareness manifests itself through the expressions that Twitter users use to talk about who they are and what they do when they communicate by computer or other devices connected to the Internet network. Our goal is to try to systematize some specific characteristics of the digital language, in order to propose some clues for its pedagogy and to participate in the "good use" debate of the digital language within the framework of digital courtesy.
