Summary/Abstract: The language of sport has not been a widely researched area in Polish studies. The communication-related change, the development of social media, the commercialisation of sports are the most important factors contributing to transformations noticeable in the discussed language variety. This paper adopts the medialinguistic perspective and attempts to describe the primary directions of changes in the language of sport, with a particular focus on the fading boundaries between the individual subtypes which have been discussed in taxonomies to date.
