Lexicology: It is highly likely that the English language of the future will have, whether socially or officially, adopted an abundance of new lexemes and terms. Some common examples observed in the past and present:

words and jargon for new concepts and technology in various fields, such as scientific development, academic and industry-related;

words borrowed from foreign languages, especially east-Asian countries like Japan, Korea, China as globalisation and cultural exchange occurs (eg. sushi, kangaroo);

slang words, possibly related to the advent of meme culture, or derogatory terms;

commonisation, names or words used as a general term, probably related to business giants, popular brands and conglomerates, like Google, Amazon, Nestle, Disney;

countless other words - shortening, converting, blending, morphing and changing, etc.

At the moment, discussion related to political correctness, progressivism and social justice is very popular, particularly amongst the younger generation, and with globalisation and the utility of the internet, many terms for this semantic field have already been coined in the recent years - eg. 'mansplaining'. This shows that the collective common vocabulary of a population will change according to relevant topics and everyday life, just like how some old customs or devices are no longer used, and their names have gone out of use as well. It's very possible that many of our current commonly-used words will become archaic or less relevant - just as a large portion of words do as time passes; though its worth noting that these words are unlikely to be completely lost due to data and information storage. On the other hand, words may change meaning or new words may be employed to give similar meaning with minor nuances, ie. synonyms, doublets.

Morphology:

Orthography: Spelling in English and almost all other languages has become more standardized to accommodate for shared media and education. This occurred in the 1400s for English, due to many factors and influences such as the printing press and literature; whereas Mandarin Chinese was only officially standardized and effectively implemented recently, in the 1900s. It wouldn't be unusual if spelling were to continue in its standardization, especially to create consistency in spelling patterns and correlation to pronunciation. On the contrary, it's also possible that at the same time, while grammatical and spelling conventions are maintained in academic and professional settings, writing in messaging will simplify, change and vary, just as it already has.

There will be many factors that change the English language in an array of different ways in the future. One of the biggest factors will be the continued use of social media and the constant development of new words, meanings and sayings in the form of memes, challenges and even in general videos. This targets all that use social networking and hence allows for this expansion in use and popularity of these new lexis and definitions.

There are many other key factors that could create new words and change old meanings such as the language used by the media to portray certain events, and how global politicians use language to convey their ideas. However, unlike social media and the internet, these factors could change English in terms of phonology, discourse and syntax as well. As people analyse the way that the media and politicians use language could result in a complete reshuffle and creation of new discourse features, pronunciations and syntactical structures.

There is always new slang to expect and it will most likely be formed on the internet, as they have in the past. Most common will be the growth in acronyms such as LOL. This mainly takes effect in texting, however I have, on many occasions, heard them used in real life. Due to pronunciation change, -ing will be reduced to -in. This may not take effect in all regions, however it is widespread enough to be a change that we could see. Phrases such as “same”, “this is me” and “it really be like that” will be the sayings of the future. Social Justice will likely have a big effect on word choice, along with adding many new terms to the dictionary (as it already has). Emoji will be on the increase, but only in text (of course). Swear words will deteriorate in impact as they become more commonplace in everyday speech. Spelling may become more phonetic, however the auto correct in most devices may resist this change. Finally, we will see use of more contractions and shortening of words such as 'aight', 'gonna' and 'ain't'.

I believe language change would  grow drastically due to globalization and the acceleration and intensification of exchanging ideas, and most importantly language. There could be morphological borrowing or even word doubles. ( Norman invasion 1066) English could gain doublets and maybe even the great global dominance of China could shift to cultural , overcome USA and it's strong cultural presence and change the English language.

In terms of reformation, I believe in the future of the English language that the dictionary could possibly be renewed or reformed to accumulate new words that are newly common. There could even be acronyms, blending words and common slang. Who knows.. there might not even be a dictionary

In the future I predict that English is going to become more standardised around the world, moving towards every English speaking country utilising American English. This has already been seen taking place in Britain and Australia with lexemes and expressions such as “cookie”, “to ring someone”, “couch potato” and “trash” and morphological changes such are the lack of a ‘u’ in “color” and the use of a ‘z’ in “organise” being used more and more often over local versions, particularly by young people. This change can be directly compared to the change English underwent between the 14 and 1500s with the arrival of the printing press to the UK. Most texts were printed in London, whose people spoke the East Midlands dialect and as a result, this dialect became the English we speak today. In our current society, most of the media we consume, whether that be books, TV, movies or social media content is produced in the United States, bringing with it, American English.

# data[].attributes.body
In the future, I think that the spelling of words in English will gradually become more phonetic as errors are made, especially on various places on the internet. Due to the rising influence of auto-correct systems, spellings from American English are likely to rise above other spellings. The use of inflectional morphemes will become more standardised and the number of irregular words will drop. The pronunciation of words may also become more phonetic, meeting their spelling in the middle. English will continue to borrow words from other languages for new concepts as its influence around the world grows, with more people learning English and then bringing words from their native language into English. An armada of new terms will also be coined through the development of new technology, many of which will likely be formed through compounding, abbreviations or blending. The semantic fields of texts in the future will no doubt also shift with these new technologies and current world events. Discourse features such as adjacency pairs and discourse particles will likely remain quite similar, with a few new particles depending on current trends.

Morpho-syntax - More abbreviations will be created, due to the use of phones.

Lexicology - There will continue to be an influx of open class words, such as nouns due to further advancements in fields such as science, technology, etc. Furthermore, due to social media, the spread of new words will become more prevalent.

Semantics - Meaning is constantly changing, and therefore, words may adopt new connotations. This may be evident following speeches given by leaders, and how they have used lexemes, which may result in new associations given to words, rather than their denotations.

Discourse - Increase in adults using abbreviations, rather than teenagers who were are more commonly associated with using  abbreviations on social media.

Phonology and orthography - No different spellings of the same words will be present due to the standardisation of English, and the dictionary. However, word spellings may still vary due the different types of English, such as British English and American English. As there are many learners of English, this may be a burden towards those who are trying to practice the English language.

Lexicology: New slang and abbreviations are likely to be created as well as the invention of new words.

Morpho-syntax: As a result of abbreviations new words might be created. The internet expands the amount of language available to individuals around the world.

Semantics: Many words can being changing in meaning in the future. e.g. some words with a negative connotation might gradually become a lexeme with a neutral then positive connotation (Elevation).

Discourse:  Overtime the designs of writing style might change, e.g. fonts

Phonology and orthography: It is highly likely that the manner is which many words are spelled. This might be a result of removal or addition of certain sounds in the alphabet.

# data[].attributes.body
Lexicology will be simplified, due to the mass adoption of media. Examples, children learning words from youtube, facebook, snapchat.

The semantics of esports is going to evolve. As gaming becomes more accessible and popular. The word "sport" will consider "esports" a legitimate sport.

Morpho-syntax: an adoption of more simple sentences occurs more often in modern times through the use of voice and text. People tend to mimic the way they speech in their writing and due to the lack of complexity in day to day speech it has become more prominent. A drastic drop in books read by children has also happened which will lead to a decline in vocabulary.
Phonetics: spelling will shift to mimic how words are pronounced to reduce discrepancies.
Discourse: writing will change and might lead to voice. By voice I mean podcasts, audiobooks etc.

Lexicology:
- In the future, lexicology will be simplified, as a result of the use of social media.
- The use of slang would be more prominent.

Semantics: The meaning of words has been constantly changing, I believe that even in the future of English, it will still continue to change due to different reasons, such as the changes in the referents. But the change due to the fuzziness might reduce as English is more standardised now.

Morphology: I think more words will be created, even as a slang word at first. For example the blending for 'chill' and 'relax' is 'chillax'. And for some reasons, some words will gradually become more common used.

# data[].attributes.body
Morphological word formation processes such as blending will become more prominent as many words are created form joining two phrases.

The evolution of English is likely to follow similar trends to those it has in the past. Lexemes will continue to be 'borrowed' from other languages, particularly Spanish and Chinese. As new technologies develop, there will also be a variety of new technical terms that come into use, some of which will gain mainstream popularity in a similar way to words such as 'wifi' and 'internet'. In absorbing these new lexemes, the phonology of English may also change to incorporate more sounds from these languages which do not already exist in English. The grammar of English may start to become more regular, similar to trends in spelling to make it more phonetic.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the in the future, thanks to globalisation, English will become mixed with other common languages, such as Chinese. This will add multiple "new" (borrowed) lexemes (which would also happen due to technological advancement and more things being invented), and will also bring new phonemes to the English language. Spellings will continue to become simplified.

# data[].attributes.body
Spellings continue to diversify as pronunciation changes without spelling changing

More words become assimilated into the English language as global communication increases

Meanings of words continue to vary slightly over time, and many more words will change meanings completely as seen with words such as 'nice'

Morphology changes will become more simplified, as show with the removal in gender and simplifications in the past, i.e. 'he eats' might become 'he eat' similar to 'I eat'

Abbreviations and acronyms become more commonplace, possibly forming new words entirely

# data[].attributes.body
Lexicology:

Continued intake of words from other branches of English, in particular American English, which is fast becoming the dominant form of English.

Apart from English, more open class words will continue to be assimilated into the language (globalisation).

Morpho-Syntax:

New words will be created due to discovery of new objects and concepts (ligma, sugma, and bofa).

Internet/online culture will drive the popularisation of abbreviations and acronyms (i.e. ytb). Sentence structure could also trend towards becoming highly 'informal' in daily life (sentence fragments, shortening of words etc.).

Semantics:

Over time, particular words may experience a shift in meaning, and end up being associated with a different semantic (change in connotation). Evidence from older periods of English show that words can adopt the exact opposite of their original meaning (Ignorant used to mean pleasant, and bear a positive connotation).

Discourse:

Discourse features in speech may or may not change, depending on whether society decide to shift the manner in which they converse (use of prosodic features to achieve effects such as sarcasms).

Phonology and Orthography:

Spelling of words may converge into a standardised form due to globalisation and the constant exchange of ideas through language.

# data[].attributes.body
Lexicology: More and more words will most likely be introduced through new technologies developing, and more new words could be introduced from other languages as we become a more globalised society.
Morphology: Conjugations and declensions of words may undergo further change, possibly with a further reduction in verb inflection forms, as has happened previously, and we may even lose different noun forms, such as certain instances of the possessive.
Semantics: As the usage of the language changes, we may come to see a shift of which words are determined as taboo, and this may even affect the meanings of certain words as a whole. We may also come to see a difference in the meanings of certain words across different English-speaking cultures, as we have already seen a bit of with differences between British and American words (e.g. 'boot' and 'trunk' of a car).
Discourse: instead of laughing, people will just shout at the top of their lungs for minutes at a time

# data[].attributes.body
In general, English will continue to adopt new phrases related to ongoing advancements in technology and culture. As language becomes more globalised, more words and phrases will be borrowed from other languages into English.

Lexicology - Lexicology will change most of all the subsystems. New slang and abbreviations will be invented and popularised.

Morpho-syntax -

Phonology and orthography - Newer words and phrases will be spelt phonetically and pronounced regularly.

Discourse - People will become less reliant on para-linguistic features and humans increasingly communicate online rather than in person.

Semantics - words will have their meanings shifted as some uses of the word become more relevant to modern society and become the primary use of the word.

# data[].attributes.body
Discourse

There'll be stylistic and aesthetic changes over time, as different typography, colours, or layouts become more popular or trendy.

Morpho-Syntax

More words may be created via abbreviation or as acronyms due to the rise of the internet and the widespread use of these words online.

Lexicology

New slang will be created through the internet, widening the audience that receives contact with these new words.

Semantics

Semantic changes will occur, giving new connotations to words (through broadening, narrowing, shifting, etc.) due to the natural use of different words over time, and the shift in the context of words.

Phonology and orthography

Spellings may continue to change and acquire different spellings based on geographical location (e.g. like “realize” and “realise”), linking to the globalisation of English.

or... Spellings will become more standardised as the globalisation of English continues, making it easier to be a "global language".

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that the future of the English language will follow along just as it has in history.
We will see lexical with the introduction of new words, like seen currently with the creation of words like Google and yolo. We will see words change meanings like we have seen with cunning through deterioration and with apple through narrowing. We will witness morphological changes like the change from the " 'd " suffix to the " ed " suffix.
We will most likely see sentence structures change, just as we have in the past like the use of negatives in different spots.
We will see changes in phonetics and phonology with new spellings and how things are pronounced.
It is even likely that the world we see another change like we saw with Chaucer, with a standardization across countries and even maybe the world.
