Abstract

This research aims to reveal the richness of ecological metaphors in the natoni oral tradition as a local wisdom of the Atoin Meto culture in West Timor, understand the relationship between language and the environment in the Atoin Meto culture, form support for the preservation of Atoin Meto culture and language, namely the Dawan language, contribute to the field of language ecology, and increase awareness about the importance of environmental conservation.  This study uses a qualitative ecolinguistic approach to analyze ecological metaphors in the natoni oral tradition of the Atoin Meto culture. Data comes from ten YouTube videos of natoni performances, supplemented by interviews. The metaphors were identified, classified, and analyzed to reflect the community's ecological worldview. The study shows that the lexicons in natoni contain ecological lexicons, including flora, fauna, and natural landscape. These lexicons are metaphorical languages that appear in parallelism which depict the social life of the Atoin Meto. Additionally, these lexicons indicate a close relationship with the Atoin Meto community, nature, and God. This research remains open for further study on other aspects of the ecological lexicon in natoni.

Abstract

This study explores the political identity representation in billboard advertisements of the governor of NTT and the Mayor of Kupang candidates for the 2024-2029 period in Kupang City through the lens of linguistic landscape analysis. The research addresses three key aspects: the language employed in candidate billboards to shape political identity, the linguistic elements that reflect the candidates’ ideologies and political values, and the incorporation of local culture and languages to establish connections with the voters. Data was obtained using observation and documentation methods. Using qualitative analysis, this research reveals that the language and visual components of the billboards play a pivotal role in constructing the candidates' public personas, aligning political ideologies with the cultural and linguistic diversity of the region. The findings highlight the strategic use of local languages and cultural symbols, illustrating how these elements build rapport with voters and foster a sense of shared identity within the community.
