This adaptation is an attempt to examine the extent to which English is being integrated and adapted into the Algerian linguistic practices online as a consequence of people's communication needs (linguistic and cultural). In order to reach the objective, a qualitative research has been designed because it is suitable for language -focused studies, with adopting computer-mediated discourse analysis as its theoretical framework. Five illustrating examples are incorporated for a qualitative analysis. These screen data have been randomly selected from both of Facebook and Instagram. The study reveals that English has been adapted into the Algerian linguistic practices online in five different ways: 1) mixing between English and other language varieties, 2) borrowing of English words, 3) Arabised English, 4) integration of Arabic cultural concepts into English expressions, and 5) use of English for the conceptualisation of Arabic cultural meaning.
