ABSTRAK Jargon merupakan salah satu fenomena linguistik. Jargon termasuk kedalam ilmu Sosiolinguistik. Jargon adalah bahasa rahasia yang biasanya di gunakan di dalam lingkungan kerja dan komunitas (sekelompok orang), sehingga hanya orang-orang di pekerjaan atau komunitas yang sama saja yang dapat memahaminya.

Tujuan utama dari penelitian ini adalah tidak hanya untuk mengungkapkan kata-kata jargon korupsi dan artinya tetapi juga menganalisanya secara semantik. Jadi, penelitian ini dilakukan pada domain Sosiolinguistik dan Semantik. Penelitian ini termasuk dalam penelitian kualitatif. Data dikumpulkan dengan menggunakan transkrip dan artikel berita online atau koran contohnya detik.com, suaramerderka.com, tempo.co dan lain sebagainya. Semua data dikumpulkan dari internet. Oleh karena itu, penulis menemukan 62 kata jargon korupsi. Terdapat 55 kata-kata jargon (88.7%) yang mengandung makna berbeda dari makna yang diketahui orang pada umumnya. Misalnya, apel malang mengacu apel dari Malang akan tetapi koruptor mengartikan ini sebagai uang dalam rupiah atau mata uang Indonesia. Kata-kata jargon lainnya adalah berupa singkatan.
