Using a structural linguistic theory, this study aims to investigate the language use and language form in TikTok social media. The study used qualitative approach and employed a document analysis on TikTok social media. Data were collected using a note-taking technique. The findings revealed seven language variations of language use in TikTok, namely Indonesian-Javanese, Javanese-Indonesian, Javanese, English-Javanese, and Indonesian-Japanese-Javanese. As a means of entertainment, language forms in TikTok have two forms of speech: antonyms or opposites and humor.
