Digital technologies have reached unimaginable proportions worldwide since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has intensified the use of networks, media and platforms in everyday communication and has led millions of teachers and students to massively to remote teaching. Such social condition forces us to rethink the production of multimodal meanings, so that we can both review concepts related to the field of language studies and to propose terms that can account for this era of digitally mediated multimodal meaning making. Therefore, in this paper, we aim at problematizing the notions of translinguaging and transposition, observing aspects of complementarity between them. Supporting the idea of senses without borders, we go on to present discussions that seek to capture multimodal meanings in their restless fluidity, in order to expand repertoires in Applied Linguistics today.
