Headline Language
Is there a particular term for the abbreviated language used in headlines (the removal of at least articles and conjunctions)?
Solution 1:
Mårdh (1980) refers to this type of language as "headlinese". (Mårdh, Ingrid. 1980. Headlinese: On the grammar of English front page headlines. Malmö: CWK Gleerup.) See also this Wikipedia page.
