Abstract

This research examines Cirebon Javanese phonological variation from a geolinguistic perspective, highlighting the lack of in-depth studies on its phonological structure compared to other Javanese dialects. The aim is to delineate and characterise systematic vowel, consonant, elision, and epenthesis variation across geographical and social settings. Using a descriptive qualitative methodology, data were gathered using the Swadesh list from native informants in 267 villages of the Cirebon regency, which comprised a diverse range of social and geographical settings. The data thus obtained were phonetically transcribed and subsequently analysed through a programmed algorithm that sorted phonological differences. The findings demonstrate the presence of systematic vowel shifts (e.g., /a/ → /ɔ/, /i/ → /ə/), consonant alternations (e.g., /b/ ↔ /w/), as well as elision and epenthesis. The above variations are due to internal linguistic factors, such as syllable structure and stress patterns, as well as external sociolinguistic and geographical considerations. The impact is especially marked in the transitional dialect areas with hybrid phonological characteristics due to language contact and social identity dynamics. This study enhances insight into the phonological variation and evolution in multilingual and dialect-diverse areas.

Abstract

This study aims to reveal the ideology contained in online gambling advertisements that appear on social media. The data for this qualitative descriptive research was three online gambling advertisements that were taken randomly on Instagram social media at the hashtag #judionline on September 18, 2022. The analysis process was carried out by analyzing the signs on the ads using a triangular semiotic theory framework by Charles S. Pierce. The findings showed that the three online gambling advertisements that appear on Instagram have similarities and differences in the use of the signs to construct the reality presented on online gambling advertisements. The continuity between the signs in online gambling advertisements creates an impression that online gambling is a fun, profitable and promising activity for the audience. The researcher suggests that readers who find online gambling advertisements on social media should be more careful and critical in reading the information raised by advertisements so that they can avoid things that can cause losses.
