Abstract

Linguistic issues such as interference and integration frequently arise in multilingual environment, which frequently result in barriers to second language production. This study examines at how language interaction between Acehnese and Indonesian has affected the Indonesian language in Langsa, with a particular emphasis on consonant variations and interference. The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of phonological interference on Acehnese speakers when speaking the Indonesian language, with a specific focus on observing variations in consonant sounds using auditory means.  The study conducted a detailed examination of common variances in Indonesian pronunciation among Acehnese speakers.  This qualitative research was carried out in Langsa, Aceh Province, involving  40 individuals who are native speakers of Acehnese. The participants consisted of 20 males and 20 females, encompassing a range of ages.  The collected data was evaluated using the PRAAT software.  The findings revealed that there was interference in pronunciation, particularly in the form of devoicing, which is the absence of vowel resonance. This was observed in the words "[ap. di]" and "[ʤa.wap]."  This interference leads to a significant level of devoicing, reaching 90% and 100% respectively.  Furthermore, the study revealed phonological interference in words such as "[thə.linga]", "[tə.thap]", and "[a.hat]", with speakers demonstrating devoicing rates of 40%, 40%, and 100% respectively.  The findings showed the complex nature of phonological interference in the pronunciation of the Indonesian language by Acehnese speakers.  These findings served as a foundation for the development of more effective strategies for acquiring a second language, particularly in diglossic environments like Indonesia.

Abstract

Dalam keberadaannya sebagai bahasa daerah, bahasa Singkil juga digunakan sebagai alat pengembangan dan penunjang budaya setempat. Namun disaat bepergian, bahasa ini jarang digunakan karena banyak penutur bahasa Singkil yang bilingual dengan bahasa Indonesia. Akibatnya, Bahasa yang jarang digunakan akan terancam punah. Berdasarkan judul di atas, penelitian ini bertujuan menjawab permasalahan penelitian yaitu: mengetahui ciri-ciri nominal dalam bahasa Singkil, proses-proses morfologi nominal dan mengetahui bentuk-bentuk nominal dalam bahasa Singkil seperti akar, afiksasi, reduplikasi dan majemuk kata nominal. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah deskriptif kualitatif. Untuk mendapatkan data, peneliti membuat pertanyaan dari pedoman wawancara yang direkam dengan Sony voice-recorder –UX56OF. Kemudian hasil penelitian ini memberikan gambaran lengkap tentang masalah penelitian. Selain itu, dalam menemukan analisis data, fenomena baru tersebut muncul karena terjadinya proses morfofonemik dengan dua vokal. Dan terakhir, peneliti menemukan bahwa morfologi nominal dalam bahasa Singkil dapat dianalisis dengan perilaku semantik, perilaku sintaksis, dan perilaku morfologis. Proses morfologi nominal meliputi afiksasi, reduplikasi dan gabungan. Kemudian bentuk-bentuk morfologi nominal yang ditemukan berkaitan dengan proses-prosesnya dibagi menjadi tiga yaitu; bentuk nominal dalam akar dan afiksasi, bentuk reduplikasi ,dan bentuk gabungan.

Abstract

This study examines the complex phonological shifts within the Mewati language, focusing on the transformation of the alveolar lateral sound between two vowels into an alveolar tap/flap. Using Optimality Theory (OT), our primary goal is to uncover the underlying process responsible for this phonological alteration. Fieldwork, in-depth interviews, and audio recordings were used to acquire extensive data. Together, these three data sources contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the phonological alteration under investigation. In summary, fieldwork provides the context, in-depth interviews offer insights into speakers perspectives, and audio recordings supply the raw phonetic data. The research field was Haryanas District Mewat, where we engaged a diverse group of fifty informants, including youth, adults, and the elderly. Mewati, a language native to Haryanas Mewat district exhibits a striking pattern. Our findings revealed that Mewati speakers relinquished the identity of the alveolar lateral sound if it did not occur between two adjacent vowels. These linguistic constraints serve as crucial determinants in evaluating potential output candidates, aligning them with the ranking features of input candidates in the framework of OT. The data collected from the heart of Mewat unequivocally confirms the presence of a phonological alteration process within the linguistic landscape of this region.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze students' ability to visualize papers in PowerPoint. This is done so that students' obstacles in presenting educational PowerPoint can be found. The research method used is observation of 11 PowerPoint scripts that are student group assignments in the Scientific Paper Writing Course. The results obtained indicate that students' ability to visualize their papers in PowerPoint is divided into 7 categories of slide appearance and 12 errors in visualizing them. The research findings prove that there is a group that presents 127 slides or 52% in PowerPoint, even though that number has far exceeded the presentation of slides which should be around 10 to 12 slides. Meanwhile, the highest error of 22% is not presenting facts of phenomena as an important basis in the background. Thus, all of these findings can be used as evaluation material in the next learning process so that students can avoid mistakes and can present their paper visualizations in PowerPoint more educationally. In order to overcome this, it is necessary to prepare more mature, complete, and full independent practice materials so that the obstacles that arise can be resolved properly. The implications of this study can be a positive gap to improve the level of material with a more educational presentation. Thus, through a better understanding of the material, students will be able to visualize their papers into PowerPoint even better.

Abstract

This paper examines the phonological differences between Bahasa Indonesia and Singkil language in linguistic variation and identity among Singkils. Language variation includes one of human language attributes which demonstrated by differences in terms of pronunciation and structure. The objectives of this research are to find out phonological similarities between Bahasa Indonesia and Singkil language, to figure out the differences in the phonological systems of both languages, and to elaborate the attitudes of Singkils students toward their language and Bahasa Indonesia. This research was conducted on the third class of SDN 1 students speaking Singkil in KutaBahari district. Ten students engaged in reading an Indonesian passage. The evidence gathered via observation, analyses of secondary data, structured interviews, and questionnaires show that the sound ᵐb, ᵐp, ⁿc, ⁿd, ⁿg, and ⁿj are not dialects at all. All speakers of Singkil pronounce words containing these sounds with the same pronunciation. It is only possible because of the influence of the language outside (other than the language of Singkil). In this case, some students pronounce [ᵐb] became[b], [ᵐp] into [p], and this is only a very small speaker of Singkil. From this condition, we can conclude that language shift occurs in bilinguals. Bilingualism began when the people move into contact with other people and languages, and also from the other needs. It can be seen from The change [ᶬp] to [p],[ⁿb] to [b],[ⁿɟ] to [ɟ] is one of the language shifts. In the end, the identity of Singkil speakers display in their language attitude towards their language based on 12 questions is mostly positive. The average value obtained was 2, 7. Meanwhile, the result indicates that the attitude of the respondents towards Indonesia is equal whether positive or negative. Keyword:PhonologicalContrasts, Bilingualism,Identity

Abstract

This paper attempts to look at Singkil students’ attitudes towards their language (Singkil language) and their attitudes towards Bahasa Indonesia as the national language of the Indonesian country. Singkil language is an Austronesian language spoken by aboriginal speakers living dominantly in five districts, namely Kuta Baharu, Simpang Kanan, Suro, Gunung Meriah, and Singkil that are administratively under the Singkil regency of Aceh province, Indonesia. According to Ethnologue, Singkil is a dialect of Batak Alas-Kluet (btz). The method used in this research is descriptive. Data were obtained through a quantitatively analyzed questionnaire for each characteristic feature calculated the average number of values (mean) language attitudes, using a Likert technique. The language attitude of respondents here towards Singkil language is very positive. It can be seen from the 12 questions given are mostly in positive attitude from 2,7 – 4,8. Otherwise, question 8 and 9 are negative from 2 – 2, 5. Therefore, the Singkil students have a positive attitude toward the use of their language. On the other hand, the language attitude of Singkil students towards bahasa Indonesia from 12 questions given are mostly in positive attitude from 2,8 – 4,6. Otherwise, question 5, 12, and 12 are negative from 2 – 2, 3. Therefore, the Singkil students have a positive attitude toward the use of bahasa Indonesia. Thus this study hopefully may reveal how the people of Singkil in several areas extensively use bahasa Indonesia in their daily communication, and the government of Aceh Province should maintain the sustainability of language in Aceh Province especially Singkil language by showing the uniqueness and richness of linguistics diversity in the region.

Abstract

Greetings are always discussed in terms of sociolinguistics, semantics, pragmatics, and communication separately; however, this paper attempts to examine holistic perspectives. The research is especially aimed at discussing Javanese morning greetings which remain important and crucial in the modern era and technology that any Javanese speakers do not switch to using Indonesian or other international languages in communication. This research is qualitative in which data were retrieved from four online websites and four contributors. The population was 130 written utterances, and of that amount, 39 ones were taken as samples using purposive sampling. Data collection was carried out from November 2 to 10, 2022 involving online observation and data were analyzed descriptively. The research shows that, referring to social interactions, morning greetings keep Javanese away from individualism or individualist characteristics and the addressers assume the addressees understand Javanese. Morning greetings have high speech level or high Javanese (kromo inggil) and are not influenced by weather and routine. Only harmony and respect play a role since greetings are written in high speech level. All addressers also assume they feel “at homes” by the use of native language. Kinship titles and names are unavailable or Ф and do not relate to region difference, and sex and race variation. About mode of communication, all greetings use visual channel and involve anonymous addressers and addressees. The addressees’ reception cannot be measured and the greetings fall under linguistic, but not interactional, routines and consist of ‘recounting of one’s mission’ (without apology, gratitude, and thanksgiving as well as non-verbal behavior). It is concluded morning greetings symbolize the honor and do not always specify words concerning the attributes of participants, except the occupation and socioeconomic status, and are not preceded by God’s blessing or shouts.

Abstract

The long-lasting conflict between the Indonesian administration and GAM ended in 2004. Yet, while the fighting came to an end, the residue and fragments of the conflict remained. The attempt to reconcile with violence and trauma is best captured through the works of contemporary Acehnese writers. Among other works of fiction, the novel writers try to express what the conflict meant for the Acehnese people. To this end, the current article is aimed at exploring Acehnese representations of violence and trauma through the metaphorical and symbolic meaning of ‘night’ in five contemporary Acehnese novels. This paper demonstrates the way the Acehnese contemporary writers represent the violence and trauma through the metaphor of ‘night’. Qualitative content analysis was used to reduce, narrow, and categorize the words, phrases, or paragraphs extracted from the novels. The data was analyzed by a post-conflict approach. The novels reveal kinds of violence and trauma through the imagery of ‘night’ highlighting multi-layered experiences during the conflict and bring the concept of postcoloniality through their writing. The five novels have tried to bring into play the ‘unfinished business’ of post-conflict Aceh. The novels also highlight the role of contemporary Acehnese novels in post-conflict societies. The disappeared left buried or unburied, the violence, the unresolved trauma, the continuing inequalities and injustices, and the struggle during the conflict means that the Aceh of the past haunts and disturbs the Aceh of the present.
