Abstract

Other than social media, Facebook also has a special feature called Forum Jual Beli (FJB), which functions as a medium for buying, selling, or promoting products among fellow users. During transactions, it is not uncommon for Facebook users to use a special lexicon that can only be understood by its members. This study aims to describe the process of register lexicon formation and the function of its use in the smartphone buy and sell community on Facebook named Group Jual Beli Handphone Yogyakarta. The type of research is descriptive-qualitative with a sociolinguistics approach. The theories used to analyze the data include Kridalaksana's (1989) morphological process and Halliday's (1973) language function. Based on the results of the research, the process of word formation found includes affixation, composition, acronyms, clipping, abbreviations, and zero derivation. When viewed from its function, the register of the smartphone buy-and-sell community on FJB group fulfills instrumental, regulatory, representational, and heuristic functions.

Abstract

Some researchers have classified wasei eigo, a unique phenomenon in the absorption of English words into Japanese, as pseudo-loanwords. These words are notable for their characteristics, which not only change morphologically but also semantically. However, the phonological adaptation that occurs in English words when they are absorbed into wasei eigo is often ignored by some researchers. In fact, understanding this adaptation needs to be deepened first, considering English has a different phonological system from Japanese. This study aims to fill the gap by examining wasei eigo words found in Japanese online communication, especially on social media. The purpose of this study is to explain the phonological processes and rules of wasei eigo. Based on data findings, analyzed using both the theory of English and Japanese phonological systems, Japanese tend to adapt English words by adding, deleting, and substituting phonemes. Several reasons underlie these adaptations, including the absence of phonemes in the target language and differences in syllable systems. As a first step in analyzing the phenomenon of pseudo-loanwords in Japanese, this research will serve as a foundation to further study wasei eigo from various perspectives of linguistics.
