Abstract

Language is the main communication tool used by humans to convey thoughts, feelings and wills. Each language has its own systems and rules, both in the fields of phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics. This study aims to describe the structure of verb phrases in the Bajo language used by the people of Lomba Village, Lamala District, Banggai Regency. The focus of the research includes the structure of intransitive and transitive verb phrases and their formation patterns. The method used is a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques in the form of the see-through method and the cakap method. Data were obtained from the oral speech of native Bajo speakers as well as relevant written data. Data analysis was carried out using matching methods and distributional methods. The results of the study show that verb phrases in the Bajo language consist of intransitive verb phrases and transitive verb phrases. The structure of the verb phrase is formed by the relationship between the core element (the verb as upstream) and the additional element (adverbial, complementary, or operator). Three main patterns were found in intransitive verb phrases, namely the H–T (Upstream–Additional), T–H (Additional–Upstream), and T–H–T (Additional–Upstream–Additional). In transitive verb phrases, a similar pattern is also found, but with the presence of an object as a mandatory complement. In addition, in the structure of the Bajo verb phrase there is the use of grammatical operators such as negation markers, aspects, and prohibitions that affect the overall meaning of the phrase. This research is expected to contribute to the development of linguistic studies, especially in the field of regional language syntax, as well as support efforts to preserve the Bajo language as part of Indonesia's cultural wealth

Abstract

Indonesia is a country with extraordinary cultural wealth, reflected in the diversity of traditions and traditional ceremonies that still survive today. This study aims to describe the form, meaning, and function of directive speech used in the Banten Prayascita Ceremony in welcoming the birth of a baby in Pasangkayu Regency, West Sulawesi. The research uses a qualitative descriptive approach with a pragmatic study. The research data is in the form of speech that contains directive speech actions obtained through listening, recording, and recording techniques during the implementation of traditional ceremonies. Data analysis is carried out through the process of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study showed that there were six forms of directive speech in the Banten Prayascita Ceremony, namely the act of ordering as many as 10 data, requesting 5 data, inviting 3 data, prohibiting 3 data, giving advice 2 data, and requesting 3 data. The act of speaking commands, requests, invitations, prohibitions, and suggestions functions predominantly as a means of regulating social actions of ceremony participants, while the act of pleading functions as a medium of spiritual communication that contains prayers and hopes for the safety of the baby and his family. The meaning contained in each speech is influenced by the cultural context, the purpose of communication, and the customary and religious values that underlie the implementation of the ceremony. The findings of this study show that language in the Banten Prayascita Ceremony not only functions as a means of communication, but also as an instrument for cultural preservation, strengthening social relations, and actualizing the spiritual values of the community.
