Abstract

This study examines how regional languages and local-wisdom vocabulary function as linguistic and cultural capital within Indonesian community-based tourism. Using a conceptual narrative literature review, the study synthesizes Indonesian and comparative scholarship on language, cultural identity, local wisdom, tourism governance, and linguistic capital. The findings show that local expressions perform three major functions: signaling authenticity, maintaining collective identity, and generating symbolic, social, or economic value. Their conversion into tourism value depends on institutional support, language training, literacy, community participation, market recognition, infrastructure, and the strength of customary governance. The review also demonstrates that tourism may support language revitalization when communities retain control over representation, transmission, and commercialization. Conversely, weak governance, excessive commodification, and the dominance of global languages can reduce regional-language visibility and detach cultural expressions from their original social meanings. The study concludes that sustainable community-based tourism requires language to be treated not merely as a promotional tool but as a governed cultural resource whose ownership, transmission, and value remain anchored in the community. These findings extend linguistic-capital analysis by highlighting governance as the central condition shaping sustainable outcomes.
