This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation involving informants aged 17–25. The findings indicate that foreign language use influences Generation Z’s communication in three major aspects: (1) increased linguistic flexibility and creativity, (2) social relationship dynamics shaped by differences in language competence, and (3) the emergence of hybrid communication styles combining local and foreign languages.
