Abstract

This study examines the integration of Toraja cultural elements in the sentence writing of English Education students at UKI Toraja. Using a quantitative descriptive analysis with 56 participants, the research utilized a questionnaire to evaluate engagement with local cultural aspects. The results show a significant incorporation of traditional food and natural landscapes, which received mean scores of 59 and 63, respectively, indicating students' appreciation for their heritage and enhancing their identity through sensory experiences. However, cultural expressions such as Londe/Pantun and the Rambu Tuka’ ceremony were less represented, with mean scores of 41 and 52, revealing gaps in students' familiarity and confidence. These findings highlight the need for educational initiatives that encourage the exploration of underrepresented cultural elements, thereby enriching student narratives and providing a more comprehensive portrayal of Toraja culture. Expanding curricular approaches to include diverse expressions of local heritage can improve writing skills and strengthen cultural connections among students.

Abstract

Toraja proverbs serve as a vital expression of local wisdom, encapsulating the cultural values, ethical principles, and social norms that shape the identity of the Tora ja people. This paper explores the cultural foundations embedded in Toraja proverbs. Through a qualitative analysis of proverbs, the study examines how these values influence interpersonal relationships, community dynamics, and ethical conduct within Toraja society. Findings reveal that proverbs not only guide individual behavior but also as guidance in a Toraja society. It includes the importance of familial bonds, cooperation, leadership, persistence, loyalty, fairness, wisdom, sincerity, humility, and diligence. These values reflect the essence of Toraja's cultural identity and provide timeless guidance for maintaining harmony and character development
