Abstract

The Gayo tribe in Lesten Village has historically relied on plants to fulfill their nutritional needs. Expanding knowledge about diverse plant-based food sources offers a promising strategy for addressing future food insecurity. A dependence on conventional plant species has often resulted in inadequate food supplies, highlighting the need for alternative approaches that incorporate a broader range of plant resources to mitigate food scarcity. Located within the Leuser mountain buffer landscape, Lesten Village in Gayo Lues Regency, Aceh Province, represents a key agricultural area with significant potential to benefit the local community. This study aimed to document and analyze the plant species used as food sources by the Lesten Village community. Data collection combined qualitative and quantitative methods, including exploration, direct observation, and semi-structured interviews. The results revealed that female respondents had a higher level of knowledge about plant use as food sources. Notably, 52.9% and 55.7% of these respondents were aged 50 years or older. The community in Lesten utilized a total of 51 plant species from 26 families as food ingredients. Vegetables constituted the largest category (34%), followed by spices (30%), fruits (21%), and carbohydrates (15%). Fruits were the most frequently used plant part for food (61%). The species with the highest use value was Cacica papaya (1.07). Additionally, the traditional food with the highest fidelity level was serbet (62.82%). These findings emphasize the importance of integrating a diverse range of plant resources into food systems to enhance food security and stimulate economic development in the region.

Abstract

Sound change is a universal phenomenon and is strongly influenced by contextual factors. Variant sounds that appear as cognates across languages can be identified and explained through linguistic analysis within a cultural framework. This study aims to identify sound changes in the Haloban language by comparing them with a related language spoken on Simeulue Island, the Defayan language. A qualitative method was employed in this research. Data were collected through recordings of Halobanese wordlist utterances and interviews with native Halobanese speakers. Six informants participated in the study, comprising three male and three female native speakers. Data collection involved documentation techniques, including recording, transcription, and translation into both Indonesian and English. The data were analyzed for regular and semi-regular (sporadic) sound changes between Proto-Austronesian (PAN) and Haloban. The Haloban language is spoken in only two villages in the Pulau Banyak District, Aceh Singkil Regency, Aceh Province. The results showed a regular sound change in which the PAN sound /b/ becomes /w/ in Haloban. Semi-regular changes included sound loss, addition, fusion, and unpacking. In comparison with the Defayan language, two regular sound changes were identified in Haloban: /b/ and /f/ becoming /w/. These sound changes contribute to the linguistic identity of the Halobanese people.

Abstract

Lambadeuk Village in Aceh Province is known for Trigona bees, which produce honey and propolis, a valuable by-product often discarded due to limited knowledge and skills for its utilization. This study evaluates the impact of soap-making workshop on community knowledge, behavior, and empowerment, employing Participatory Action Research (PAR). The program engaged 27 participants, primarily housewives and farmers, in theoretical and practical training on soap production using propolis. Pretest and posttest evaluations revealed significant improvements in participants' knowledge of soap-making processes and ingredient roles, with knowledge levels shifting from low to high. However, confidence for independent production remained modest, indicating the need for continued mentorship. By transforming Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production) and SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth). This program demonstrates the potential of targeted empowerment efforts to enhance community skills, reduce waste, and foster sustainable development through innovative resource utilization.

Abstract

General Background: The preservation of regional languages in Indonesia faces serious challenges due to globalization and the declining interest of younger generations in using local languages. Specific Background: The Acehnese language, as a carrier of rich cultural and philosophical values, has experienced a reduction in daily use, necessitating innovative educational media that align with digital learning trends. Knowledge Gap: Current Acehnese language instruction still relies on conventional methods that lack interactivity and technological integration. Aims:This study aims to design and develop the “Yak Meureunoe Bahsa Aceh” mobile-based learning application using the 4D model (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate) to enhance learning motivation and preserve the Acehnese language. Results: Validation results from linguists, media experts, and language teachers yielded an average feasibility score of 82.7% (highly feasible), while field trials showed a learning motivation increase with a mean score of 78.7%. Novelty: The application integrates linguistic accuracy, interactive design, and accessibility through mobile technology, making it the first comprehensive Acehnese language learning tool based on the 4D model. Implications: This innovation provides an effective medium for regional language revitalization, supports independent learning, and serves as a model for developing digital learning applications for other local languages Highlights: Promotes regional language preservation through digital learning. Uses the 4D model to ensure systematic application development. Increases student motivation and engagement in language learning.

Abstract

General Background: The Acehnese language, as a crucial component of Indonesia’s linguistic and cultural diversity, faces a decline in daily use among teenagers due to modernization and the dominance of Indonesian and foreign languages. Specific Background: The emergence of social media platforms such as Instagram presents a new opportunity for language revitalization through interactive and youth-oriented digital content. Knowledge Gap: Despite the growing use of digital media in education, empirical studies examining its effectiveness in regional language revitalization remain limited. Aims: This study investigates the effectiveness of the “Cinta Bahasa Aceh” Instagram community in revitalizing the Acehnese language among adolescents. Results: Using a quasi-experimental design with 60 respondents, findings reveal significant improvement in vocabulary (32%), understanding of common expressions (28%), and conversational ability (35%) following a four-week digital intervention. Novelty: The study integrates Fishman’s Reversing Language Shift theory, Gilster’s digital literacy framework, and Rogers’ diffusion of innovation theory, highlighting Instagram as a participatory platform that transforms passive learners into active cultural agents. Implications: These results confirm that social media-based initiatives can serve as adaptive and replicable models for regional language preservation, offering both theoretical and practical contributions to the sustainability of linguistic heritage in the digital era. Highlights: Digital media effectively enhances youth engagement in language preservation. Instagram fosters active, participatory learning of regional languages. The study offers a replicable model for revitalizing endangered languages. Keywords: Language Revitalization, Digital Media, Instagram, Teenagers, Acehnese Language
