Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify the language phenomenon on KOMPASTV YouTube media during the Covid-19 pandemic, including 1) classifying terms during the Covid-19 pandemic and 2) describing the characteristic patterns of language variation during the Covid-19 pandemic. The KOMPASTV channel is the object of research because the number of subscribers has reached 11.2M. This study was carried out on the 2021 edition of the KOMPASTV YouTube medium text in August—December during the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia or at a time when the Covid-19 virus began to reappear. The method used in this research is descriptive-qualitative. The technique used in collecting data is listening and recording, and analyzing the data using interactive methods. The results of the research based on 17 videos that became the data source, found terms that emerged during the Covid-19 pandemic, which have been classified into two, namely: (1) old terms appear and (2) new terms. In the characteristic pattern of variations, terms are classified in the form of synonyms, English, abbreviations, and acronyms. The interpretation of the research results in the formation of new terms during the Covid-19 pandemic was found to come from 6 foreign languages and 2 languages formed through circumstances. However, no terms were found that were formed from cognate words. This shows that the new term is included in a variety of non-formal terms, because there are terms that use foreign languages.
