Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of the English language in promoting the local wisdom of Nias, specifically the Hombo Batu tradition, to the international stage. Hombo Batu, which symbolizes bravery and physical strength in Nias society, has the potential to become a globally recognized cultural attraction. English, as a global lingua franca, plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between local culture and international audiences. Through social media, international festivals, and tourism websites, English is used to introduce the meaning and values embedded in Hombo Batu. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method, with data collection techniques including literature review, digital media observation, and semi-structured interviews with cultural practitioners, academics, and tourism managers. The findings of this study show that, while the use of English is highly effective, challenges in maintaining cultural integrity remain. The research concludes that, despite the effectiveness of English in introducing Hombo Batu, there is a need for enhanced translation quality and collaboration between cultural experts and communication professionals to ensure that traditional values are preserved when presented to the international audience. Additionally, empowering the younger generation of Nias to promote their culture is essential.

Abstract

The word Ya’ahowu is a distinctive greeting used by the people of Nias, carrying deep meaning and strong cultural values. This study aims to explore the meaning, function, and social significance of Ya’ahowu as a symbol of love and cultural identity within the Nias community. The research employs a literature review method, analyzing various sources such as journals, books, and scholarly articles related to the language and culture of Nias. The findings reveal that Ya’ahowu is not merely a simple salutation but embodies a prayer and well-wishes for the person being greeted. Its primary functions extend beyond social interaction, encompassing cultural and emotional roles that strengthen interpersonal relationships and foster social solidarity. Moreover, Ya’ahowu reflects core values such as affection, respect, and a strong spirit of brotherhood. In today’s modern context, this greeting remains relevant and holds potential as a symbol of cultural diplomacy and a tool for preserving the local language. In conclusion, Ya’ahowu is an important intangible cultural heritage that must be preserved. It serves not only as a means of communication but also as a representation of the unique values of love and peace inherent to the Nias people.
