Abstract

This research analysed the function and meaning behind traditional elders’ perceptions and roles in solo hulir se’ang hala; a customary dispute resolution process, the role of traditional elders as negotiators in language conflicts that may occur, and the central role of traditional elders in interpreting every verbal and non-verbal activity. Conducted in Habi and Langir Villages, Sikka Regency, the study adopts a descriptive qualitative method within an ethnolinguistic framework. Traditional elders (’ata du’a mo’an) from these villages provided insights through observations and interviews. Solo hulir se’ang hala, equivalent to “insulting others” in the local language, encompasses actions like presumptuous speech, gossip, or slander, leading to communal disputes addressed by traditional elders. Offenders receive customary fines, including advice, guidance, and obligations to pay sanctions, to prevent recurrence. Each type of offensive speech incurs specific fines, acknowledging the wrong (haput wae meang). The resolution of disputes culminates in the Pati Wawi Perang Pare ritual, involving the communal slaughter of a pig and cooking of rice. The ceremony incorporates various language functions—expressive, informative, and directive—and meanings—connotative, social, and affective or emotive. This study highlighted the integral role of traditional elders in maintaining social harmony through customary rituals and language use.

The learning process was carried out in two cycles over four weeks, involving Flashcard Pronunciation Drillsaccompanied by educational game activities such as wordmatching, sound repetition, and pronunciation challenge.The results showed a significant improvement in students’ pronunciation ability, both quantitatively and qualitatively. Quantitatively, the average student score increased from 56.77 (pre-cycle) to 81.77 (post-cycle), indicating a gain of 25 points. Qualitatively, students became more active, more willing to pronounce new words, and were able to correct their pronunciation errors independently through repeated practice using flashcards. Teachers also reported that this medium was easy to implement, efficient in classrooms with limited facilities, and effective in creating a fun and interactive learning atmosphere.In addition, to enhance learning outcomes, the media also fostered students’ independence, self-confidence, and learning motivation.
