Language is the identity of a country or region that is used as the main communication tool. Everyone needs language when interacting, expressing ideas and opinions and other social relationships. In its development, the use of Indonesian began to shift to be replaced by the use of the language of teenagers, one of which was the use of the word bestie. The use of the word bestie is not only used by teenagers, not infrequently educated people also use this bestie language, both in oral and written form, both in formal and non-formal times, resulting in the use of language being bad and incorrect so that it will have an impact on the existence of the Indonesian language. It would be nice if we can use good and correct Indonesian, so that the existence of Indonesian as the national language is maintained. Indonesian is the language of unity, so as Indonesian people who care and respect their national language, we must maintain and help preserve our language, namely Indonesian. If we have used good and correct Indonesian, people around us will be infected directly.

National identity is a sign or characteristic of a country that can distinguish its characteristics from other countries, because the identity of a country lies in the concept of the country itself. Etymologically, national identity comes from the words "identity" and "national". Identity comes from the word identity which means the existence of a character, trait, or quality related to an individual, group, or something that distinguishes it from others. And National comes from the word nation which means state. And every country is obliged to implement constitutional behavior in the life of the state. Because in general the constitution is the basic principle and law of a nation, state, or community group. Where that determines the power, duties of the government and guarantees certain rights for its citizens. Â

In Law Number 24 of 2009 Article 25 it is stated that the Indonesian language is a national identity, national pride, a means of unity as an ethnic group, as well as a means of communication between regions and between regional cultures. Therefore, as an Indonesian language user, you should be proud to use Indonesian. However, in the context of higher education, most students do not really have a positive linguistic attitude. Awareness of feeling loyal, proud to own, and maintain the Indonesian language seems to be lacking. This is because students tend to be more confident when using a foreign language compared to their own country's language. A positive attitude in Indonesian can be shown in the form of language loyalty, language pride, and awareness of language norms.
