Abstract

Nowadays social media has brought various and endless content, especially relating to the use of the local language even though the audience is national. One of them is an Instagram Reels account owned by Nopek Novian, a stand-up comedian from Madiun, East Java who puts in his accent and dialect when speaking the Indonesian language to other speakers with different linguistic backgrounds. Thus, this study aims to figure out the purpose of Nopek Novian maintaining his local language when speaking to others. The theory of raciolinguistics and Wardhaugh's waves of society are used to unravel the analysis. The ethnography method is conducted to be able to observe the object which is the Instagram reels comprehensively. The finding shows that the promoted identity is used by Nopek Novian so that Madiun accent and dialect are known nationally through the concept of Regional Indonesian.
