Abstract
The TV series Brooklyn Nine-Nine is rich in many examples of slang and police jargon due to its plot. Slang, as a type of informal speech, defines the personality traits of the characters, creates references that make the series widely recognized, contributes to its realism, and most significantly, creates humor. The humor of this series is based on three constituents: word play, characterization of characters, and publicly known references. Jargon, a type of formal speech used by specific professions, appears in the series in its police and detective forms. This type of language helps with the accuracy of the portrayal of the police station, and the setting helps embody the police station as a professional environment with its own vocabulary and norms. If the language of this series is evaluated, it can be separated into substandard and professional variants. This research paper aims to demonstrate the purpose of using slang and jargon, how they affect the series’ characters and plot, and to compare slang and jargon with the sociolinguistic division of formal and informal languages.
