Abstract

The changing context of digital communication has influenced how speakers construct meaning, including the use of the word insyaallah, which has shifted from its theological meaning toward a socio-pragmatic one. This study aims to analyze the reconceptualization of the meaning of insyaallah in digital interactions using the Cognitive Linguistics perspective within Langacker’s Cognitive Grammar framework. A qualitative approach was employed by analyzing usage contexts, interlocutors’ responses, and the conceptual elements underlying meaning construction. The findings reveal that insyaallah no longer solely represents submission to God's will and a strong commitment, but is more frequently used to express uncertainty, possibility, or a strategy for reducing commitment in social interaction. This semantic shift reflects changes in the collective mental model shaped by repeated digital communication practices. The study concludes that the meaning of insyaallah is dynamic, continuously reconstructed through communicative practices, and influenced by the changing media and social contexts of language use. Keywords: reconceptualization, insyaallah, digital interaction, cognitive linguistics.
