This study aims to discover the typology of abbreviations found in Japanese and Indonesian newspapers. Data was collected using Sketch Engine tools with specific keywords and newspaper website addresses. The abbreviations analyzed are limited to those related to COVID-19 outbreak news. The identified types include alphabetisms (or initialisms), acronyms, clippings, and mixed forms. The findings reveal that Japanese newspapers use abbreviations in both Japanese and English, while Indonesian newspapers use those in Indonesian and English. The abbreviations formation is influenced by the writing system of each language used in the newspapers
