Abstract
This study discusses the communication patterns that occur in a toy community of Jogja Street
Mini 4WD in Yogyakarta. On daily basis, the members of the Jogja Street Mini 4WD
community speak as people in general, but the communication that takes place within the Jogja
Street Mini 4WD community is quite distinct and has different traits amongst the Street Mini
4WD communities in other areas. The data obtained was a description of how the
communication patterns occur in the community. Researchers obtained data with qualitative
descriptive methods supported by interpretive paradigms to conduct in-depth interviews with
community members. The research subjects were then determined using the criteria that were
previously set. Researchers adopt the Hymes theory that reveals six elements of
communication patterns. From the data obtained, the researchers found various uniqueness in
the communication patterns of the Jogja Street Mini 4WD community as a verbal language
used for communication in daily life. The communication between members of the community
uses non-formal language so that messages, opinions, and suggestions are easily accepted by
other members. In brief, the community is found to have a new and distinctive communication
pattern where the members speak in non-formal language such as "Victim of The Day,
Supreme Champion".
