This research is motivated by the prevalence of morphological errors in captions on the Instagram platform in the digital era. This study aims to describe the forms of morphological errors in captions of the @tereliyewriter account and explain the purpose of their use. The study used a qualitative descriptive method with human instruments and the Simak Bebas Libat Cakap (SLBC) technique. The research data consisted of 115 captions uploaded between October 1–15, 2025. Data collection was conducted through literature review, while data analysis used the Miles and Huberman model.
