Abstract

The rapid expansion of digital communication technologies has significantly intensified multilingual practices across online environments, reshaping global knowledge production and dissemination. This study synthesizes empirical research on digital multilingualism and critically examines its implications for equitable global knowledge frameworks. Using a qualitative systematic review of studies published between 2015 and 2025, the paper analyzes patterns of multilingual communication, linguistic hierarchies, digital access disparities, and algorithmic mediation in online environments.
