“…The researcher goes further and says that Trump's use of Twitter is a culturally and historically remarkable phenomenon which might shape the political discourse in social media.

This study aims to investigate how the language of Twitter users deviates from the Standard English language. Besides, it considers how those linguistic deviations and flouting of basic rules of grammar, spelling, and punctuation could be made with intention as a way of destabilizing opponents. Other times, it could have been resulted from hasty fingers. However, leaving them uncorrected could be a trace of poor proofreading tweets. This paper examines Tweets posted by the 45th American president, Donald Trump, from a Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) perspective, adopted from Fairclough's Threedimensional model. Hence, this paper delves deep into the president's tweets, during the election campaign and after taking office, by analyzing some linguistic deviations. The findings of the analyses have revealed that Trump's deliberate sloppiness of the basic rules of grammar, spelling, and punctuation rings true with his character. They are mainly a way of destabilizing his opponents. Instead of being ashamed, the US president looks proud of his slips; he hardly proofreads his words before pouring them into the Twittersphere.

The emergence of Netspeak as a variety of languages cannot be separated from the development of the Internet and social media. The characteristic of its medium and the social media nature of communication makes Netspeak have distinctive and unique features that differentiate it from the more traditional form of communication, such as topographic and grammatical irregularities, as well as lexical creativity. This study attempts to discover the use of written communication features on 9GAG’s Instagram account as a popular community-based content creator. The qualitative method is applied by using Crystal’s feature of language variety model. The data was gathered through observation and documentation and then analyzed in terms of graphology, typography, grammar, vocabulary, and discourse features. This research found some distinctive graphic features such as punctuations and spellings, morphological processes and syntactical irregularities, distinctive vocabularies, and some discourse feature that presents unique coherence and chronological order. The finding indicates the rich features present in the data source, with the characteristics of informality and irregularities that often bend the rules of standard language imposed by internet users. Moreover, the finding also shows that the written language development on Netspeak is a way to overcome the barriers to expression in Instagram communication.

Today's popularity of a tourist destination is often supported by its existence on social media. Engaging narratives and pictures influence visitor interest in traveling to an area. This study aims to see the discourse strategy used by a highly followed Instagram account @balilivin in promoting tourist attractions in Bali using the theory of Wodak & Meyer (2001). The data was collected in January 2022. Using descriptive-qualitative method, the study found that most posts divide human social actors into visitors and locals. Bali as a destination and its people is described with a highly positive image with bombastic words. Pictures and captions framed Bali as an ideal paradise apart from various realities unshown on social media.
