Abstract

The phenomenon of using softened and indirect language in digital communication has drawn attentionin sociolinguistic studies, particularly in the context of netizen comments on public figures. This studyaims to identify the forms and functions of euphemisms employed by netizens in response to parentingcontent on Nikita Willy's YouTube channel. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive method and discourseanalysis approach, the data were drawn from 30 purposively selected netizen comments. The analysisof euphemism forms is based on the classification proposed by Allan and Burridge, while the functionsare examined using Burridge’s framework. The results show that eight types of euphemisms werecommonly used: metaphor, figurative expression, colloquialism, abbreviation and acronym,circumlocution, jargon, omission, and one-for-one substitution. Among these, figurative expressionsappeared most frequently. In terms of function, the euphemisms identified serve protective, cohesive,booster, deceitful, and humorous purposes. These findings suggest that netizens tend to useeuphemisms as a linguistic strategy to maintain politeness, foster solidarity, and convey criticism subtlyin discussions around parenting an issue laden with values and social norms. This research contributesto a deeper understanding of language dynamics in digital public spaces, especially in parentingdiscourse involving female public figures.

Abstract

This study aims to identify and analyze the types of conceptual metaphors in Wardah’s “Beauty Moves You” advertising texts using a cognitive semantic approach. The research focuses on the mapping between the source domain and the target domain in each metaphorical phrase, based on the theory proposed by Lakoff and Johnson (1980). This study employs a descriptive qualitative method using listening and note-taking techniques. The data were collected from Wardah's official advertising videos published on the YouTube platform, which were then transcribed and analyzed based on the classification of three types of conceptual metaphors: structural, ontological, and orientational. The results show that seven metaphorical phrases were identified in the advertisement text, reflecting the concept of beauty as an active force, a social driver, and an agent of transformation. Five phrases were categorized as structural metaphors, four as ontological metaphors, and three as orientational metaphors, with some phrases falling into more than one category. The findings suggest that Wardah’s advertisements do not merely promote products, but also construct new meanings of women’s beauty, empowerment, and spirituality through metaphorical expressions. Keywords: Conceptual Metaphor; Lakoff and Johnson; Wardah Advertisement; Cognitive Semantics; Metaphor.
