Abstract
Swear word is a part of the casual language in Sociolinguistics which usually deals with negativity and dirty words. However, it has been found out that some brands break marketing rules by employing this linguistic expression to draw customers’ attention. This study analyzes the types and functions of swear words in a brand by using a theoretical framework from Swan (2005) and Mortimer (2007). The researcher used a qualitative method to gather and analyze those swear words in brands. The result of this study showed that those swear words in brands can be categorized based on their types and functions, and it also showed that all of the target customers are from teenagers to adults. The finding suggests that the major employed type of those brands is sexual activity type with 21 samples (48%) while the major employed function is shock with total 14 samples (32%). Keywords: swear word, brand.
