Abstract

This research aims to identify the forms of slang language used on the social media platform Tiktok. The use of language and its meaning are influenced by the context of that slang. The study employs a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques through observation and documentation of comments and conversations among Tiktok users. The data were analyzed using a pragmatic approach to understand the meaning of utterances in the context of communication. The results of the study indicate that there are five dominant forms of slang used on Tiktok, namely abbreviations, loanwords, acronyms, metathesis, and contractions. In addition, the use of slang serves several pragmatic functions, including convivial, collaborative, phatic, competitive, and conflictive functions. Social context, the relationship between speakers, and the communication situation greatly influence the interpretation of the slang used. This research shows that slang language on social media functions not only as a means of communication, but also as a medium for building solidarity, expressing emotions, and strengthening group identity in digital communication.
