This study aims to analyze the differences in the use of standard and non-standard Indonesian in various communication contexts, both formal and informal, using the literature review method. Standard language functions as an official communication tool in formal situations, while non-standard language is more often used in casual daily interactions. This study collects and reviews various literature sources, such as journal articles, books, and official documents, to identify usage patterns, factors that influence language choice, and the social and cultural implications of the use of standard and non-standard languages. The results of the study indicate that standard language plays an important role in maintaining clarity and uniformity of communication in official domains, such as education, government, and mass media. In contrast, non-standard language better reflects the social and cultural dynamics of society and is often used to strengthen closeness between individuals. Factors such as age, educational background, and communication situations are the main determinants in language choice. This study also highlights the importance of mastering standard language as a basic skill in formal communication, without ignoring the value of non-standard language as a reflection of cultural richness. This study is expected to provide theoretical and practical contributions to understanding the role of these two types of language in society and serve as a reference for further research in the fields of linguistics and sociolinguistics.
