A phrase is defined as a grammatical unit composed of two or more words and does not exceed the limits on the function of clause elements (Ramlan in Rumilah, 2021). This study aims to provide a description of the types of phrases identified in marketing accounts with the usernames @padangpayakumbuah and @erigostore on Instagram social media. Captions for both marketing accounts use varied and interesting phrases, from using phrases in Padang to using non-standard language along with persuasive English. The method used is a qualitative descriptive method with 3 steps, namely: data collection, data analysis, and presentation of the results of the analysis.
