The data for this research are Twitter posts from @onlyjiungs Twitter account, used descriptive qualitative method and purposive sampling to answer the research questions. The result of the analysis showed that Referential function is the most frequently used among the 31 data (14 utterances, or 45,2%), followed by Expressive function (11 utterances, or 35,5%), Phatic function (2 utterances, or 6,4%), Metalingual function (0%), Conative function (2 utterances, or 6,4%), and Poetic function (2 utterances, or 6,4%). The tweets from @onlyjiungs contain every criterion from Hymes's (1974) theory of context SPEAKING, indicating that context SPEAKING on a Twitter post from @onlyjiungs satisfies all of its component elements.
