Abstract

This study aims to determine the use of slang language and its equivalents in Arabic which is still less popular in everyday speech. This research uses a type of literature research. The data is collected by the method of documentation (input records), then identified and classified according to the type of slang word that is widely used temporally in society. The results showed that there were 57 slang words matched in Arabic. 17 nouns, 16 verb-shaped words, 21 adjective-shaped words, and 3 pronoun-shaped words. The slang vocabulary data will continue to grow and develop according to the times and needs, so it has implications for the development of sociolinguistic science because the Slang language was created, and used by certain social groups for internal communication so that what is talked about is not known to others.
