<![CDATA[Language serves as an essential communication tool in the process of interaction and learning, particularly within the higher education context for students in the Indonesian Language and Literature Education program. Amid technological advancements and the proliferation of social media, the phenomenon of slang language usage among students is increasingly widespread. This research aims to examine the impact of slang language use on students' ability to employ standard Indonesian language accurately and according to established norms. The research method utilized is a literature study with a qualitative approach, through the analysis of various relevant literature. The findings indicate that while slang language can strengthen social relationships and reflect linguistic creativity, excessive use may diminish formal language skills and hinder intergenerational communication. Therefore, it is crucial for students to maintain the use of proper and correct Indonesian language, especially in academic and formal contexts, without completely rejecting the existence of slang language as part of linguistic dynamics.]]>
