It is important to analyze and differentiate between neologism and mainstream language. Neologism flourishes where languages evolve. Since the reform and opening-up, with the rapid cultural exchanges with other countries, Chinese Language has produced a large number of new words. This paper discussed the meaning of neologism and characteristics of mainstream language. Once invented, new words have to go through a tough process for getting accepted into mainstream language. New words must gain people’s interest and become frequently used. They that survived finally evolve into the common words. Those neologism words not widely used have perished over and with the advent of internet, many internet slang words are created. Internet acronyms, jargon and abbreviations are key characteristics of online language. Shortening of a word is much common among internet users.
