Abstract

Register is a set of language items associated with a group of people who share similar background and interest. This phenomenon also appears in casters of Dota 2, the commentators of a video game based on real-time strategy that involves multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA). This study aims to identify the linguistic features and how they are used by the casters of Dota 2 in their play-by-play description. The main theory used is Holmes (2013) and other supporting theories used are Read’s (2000) and Lieber’s (2009), Carstairs-McCarthy’ (2002), and Mattiello’s (2008) that include the analyses of play-by-play, vocabulary, morphological feature, and the context. This study used a qualitative approach. The results showed that the play-by-play commentary of Dota 2 was generally produced when the casters only described some big moments and actions that happened in the game. Furthermore, the register was marked by vocabulary and morphological features that were used to describe technical terms and ease communication between the casters. Compounding becomes the most frequently used morphological feature. Clipping processes were in normal and slang forms. Finally, the use of linguistic features of the register relied on the context related to social factors such as participants, setting, topic, and function.
