Then, Janet Holmes' theory to classify linguistic behavior. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method. Meanwhile, data were collected through observation and in - depth observation of the use of linguistic forms and behaviors by categorizing tag questions, lexical hedges, raising intonation, avoiding strong swear words, super polite forms, emphatic stress, hypercorrect grammar, intensifiers and empty adjectives, minimal response, command and directive, topic choice and swear words. It found 55 data divided into 13 categories of linguistic forms, namely 4 linguistic forms of female language and 9 linguistic forms of male language. Based on the differences in linguistic behavior and topics, women use tag questions more often than men. In addition, intonation is also different due to the difference in role status between men and women.
