Academic English has evolved to meet the needs of an increasingly
digital and global economy. The field of Digital Economics, which resides at the
intersection of technology and financial sciences, demands precise, objective, and
adaptable linguistic practices that support analysis, innovation, and collaboration. This
article explores the linguistic features inherent to English for Academic Purposes
(EAP) within Digital Economics, analyzing its vocabulary, grammar, functional
discourse patterns, and genre conventions in academic writing, as well as its adaptation
to digital communication. The paper also highlights the influence of globalization on
academic English in this fast-evolving field and discusses implications for language
instruction and scholarly practice.
