Abstract: The rapid development of the digital communication ecosystem has significantly accelerated linguistic evolution, particularly within informal varieties (slang) used by Generation Z. This study aims to empirically and comprehensively analyze the phenomenon of semantic shift in Generation Z slang and map word collocation patterns within X microblogging discourse and TikTok audiovisual discourse. The research method applies an integrated mixed-methods corpus-based linguistics approach. Data were harvested via web scraping technique from public posts, threads, captions, and comments between January and June 2024, resulting in the Gen-Z Slang Corpus (KSG-Z) comprising 150,000 running words (tokens). The data were processed using AntConc (Version 4.2.0) software by evaluating word frequency, Key Word in Context (KWIC) concordance lines, and the strength of collocational associations calculated via Mutual Information statistics (MI score ≥ 3.0). The findings reveal four primary patterns of semantic shift: (1) metaphorical extension in the lexeme "menyala", (2) conceptual pejoration in the lexeme "skena" (notably in the collocation "polisi skena"), (3) ameliorative transposition in the lexeme "sigma", and (4) pragmatic reinterpretation in the lexemes "skenario" and "roasting". This study concludes that the interactive text architecture of X microblogging discourse and the communal audio encapsulation of TikTok audiovisual discourse act as technological catalysts accelerating the crystallization of new semantic conventions. This research offers theoretical implications for digital diachronic semantics and practical contributions to the modernization of Indonesian lexicography.

Abstrak: Perkembangan ekosistem komunikasi digital memicu akselerasi evolusi kebahasaan yang signifikan, khususnya pada ragam nonformal (slang) yang digunakan oleh Generasi Z. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis secara empiris dan komprehensif fenomena pergeseran makna semantis (semantic shift) pada slang Generasi Z serta memetakan pola kolokasi kata dalam wacana mikroblogging X dan wacana audiovisual TikTok. Metode penelitian menerapkan pendekatan kuantitatif-kualitatif berbasis korpus (mixed-methods corpus-based linguistics approach). Data dihimpun melalui teknik web scraping unggahan publik, utas, caption, dan komentar pada rentang Januari–Juni 2024 hingga membentuk Korpus Slang Gen-Z (KSG-Z) sebesar 150.000 token. Data dianalisis menggunakan perangkat lunak AntConc (Versi 4.2.0) dengan mengukur frekuensi kemunculan kata, analisis konkordansi Key Word in Context (KWIC), serta tingkat kekuatan asosiasi kolokasi melalui statistik Mutual Information (MI score ≥ 3.0). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya empat pola utama pergeseran makna semantis: (1) perluasan makna metaforis pada leksem menyala, (2) peyorasi konseptual pada leksem skena (terutama pada kolokasi polisi skena), (3) transposisi amelioratif pada leksem sigma, serta (4) reinterpretasi pragmatis pada leksem skenario dan roasting. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa arsitektur teks interaktif pada wacana mikroblogging X dan enkapsulasi audio komunal pada wacana audiovisual TikTok berfungsi sebagai katalis teknologis yang mempercepat pengkristalan konvensi makna baru. Penelitian ini memberikan implikasi teoretis bagi perkembangan semantik diakronis digital serta kontribusi praktis bagi pemutakhiran leksikografi bahasa Indonesia.
