Ketidaksantunan Berbahasa di Indonesia: Kajian Sosiolinguistik (Impoliteness in Language in Indonesia: A Sociolinguistic Study)

Abstract

This study aims to describe the role of sociolinguistics in language impoliteness in social media. To achieve this goal, this study uses the method of literature study. The research data is in the form of scientific articles, proceedings, and books sourced from Google Scholar, the libgen.is page, and Publish or Perish. Data were analyzed using exposition techniques and content analysis. The validity of the data is achieved through the technique of credibility (degree of trust). The results of the study show that impoliteness in the language is a form of moral degradation that occurs in society. This degradation occurs because the role of oneself, family, environment, and society has not been maximized in creating a positive communication atmosphere so character education needs to be implemented to minimize these problems. Sociolinguistics has a strategic role in regulating human behavior in language so that harmonious relationships are established
