Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the intended meaning and types of Slang and Abbreviations on Tori's Twitter account. Data were taken from tweets on Tori's Twitter account. This study used a qualitative descriptive method based on the theory of Allan and Burridge (2006), five types of slang were found: fresh and creative, flippant, imitative, Acronym, and clipping. Based on Schendl's theory, five types of abbreviation were found: clipping word, blend, Acronym, initialism, and contraction. The results of this study indicate that there are 40 types of slang data and 121 types of abbreviation. Based on the results of the study, the use of types of slang and abbreviation on Tori's Twitter account reflects her personal interest in K-pop and how this shapes her digital identity as a fan. An analysis of the intended meaning of the use of K-pop abbreviations and slang in Tori's tweets reveals how important language is in shaping digital fan identities and building strong virtual communities. The evolution of language in this fandom reflects the complex and ever-changing dynamics of fan culture.
