Abstract

In trading activities, sometimes certain people take advantage of the situation to take as much profit as possible from consumers. What these parties do is sometimes done in deceptive ways. However, strangely, consumers are actually tempted by their products, and do not even mind their deception. This has the potential to become a legal problem because of the attempt to deceive consumers with ironic slogans and promotional language. Therefore, the purpose of this research is that the author wants to know how sales cases that occur in minimarkets and online shops have the potential to become legal problems. In addition, the author wants to know what kind of promotional language minimarkets and online shops use to manipulate the selling price so that it looks cheaper to consumers so that it has the potential to become fraud. The data collection used in this research uses observation and documentation methods. After that, the data that has been collected will be analyzed using a qualitative approach. The results show that the use of advertising promotional language can increase sales value. On the other hand, the language has the potential to become a legal case because there are elements of price fraud against consumers in accordance with Article 378 of the Criminal Code.

Abstract

Teknologi dan media sosial telah berkembang sangat pesat membawa perubahan terhadap pola komunikasi masyarakat, terutama remaja. TikTok sebagai bagian platform populer turut memengaruhi cara remaja berinteraksi melalui penggunaan bahasa yang unik dan dinamis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perubahan pola komunikasi remaja akibat penggunaan bahasa TikTok serta mengkaji dampak positif dan negatifnya terhadap kemampuan berbahasa. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif melalui teknik pengumpulan data seperti melalui wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi terhadap remaja di Desa Cimanggu Subang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa bahasa yang digunakan remaja cenderung berupa slang, singkatan, serta menggunakan Bahasa campur kode antara bahasa Indonesia, daerah, dan asing. Bahasa tersebut bersifat santai, ekspresif, dan tidak formal. Di satu sisi, fenomena ini mencerminkan kreativitas berbahasa dan memperkuat identitas sosial remaja. Namun, di sisi lain, terdapat dampak negatif berupa penurunan penggunaan bahasa Indonesia yang baik dan benar serta munculnya kebiasaan penggunaan bahasa kurang sopan. Dengan demikian, diperlukan peran lingkungan dalam membimbing penggunaan bahasa secara bijak.
