Abstract

This study described how Cross-Cultural Communication contributes its influence on accommodating the generation gap to improve a social structure in Indonesia, particularly during the Disruptive Era. In order to bridge the generation gap, cross-cultural communication focuses on the patterns of convergence and divergence of communication behaviors, particularly as they relate to people's goals for social approval, communication efficiency, and identity. This study was conducted at Universitas Sumatera Utara, and the data was analyzed using a descriptive qualitative method, the constructivism paradigm, and coding. The findings indicated that accommodating in cross-cultural communication can improve problem-solving skills, collective decisions, and can resolve generation gap issues to create harmonious interactions. The failure to play a role in passing on information from one generation to the next is usually based on the assumption that the other generation already knows the condition, situation, and meaning behind it without any further discussion or deeper communication. Because of changes in social structure, the university is developing a cross-cultural communication model to address the generation gap in social structure: openness and engagement, for example, through creative furniture arrangement in some classes. The results also show that student-lecturer engagement is more powerful in creating values for a better social condition. People who are willing to build communication rather than assume it will fare better in all aspects of cross-cultural communication.

Abstract

Early second language (L2) development plays a crucial role in the academic advancement and social integration of culturally and linguistically diverse children. Particularly in Indonesia, where the dominant Bahasa language differs significantly from their native language (L1), these young learners often encounter challenges in acquiring L2 proficiency. Their language development in the early stages is heavily influenced by their environment and familial context. Despite these factors, lexical errors are commonplace during the initial phases of second language acquisition. This study aims to compare the stages of human language acquisition by analyzing the utterances of children aged two to three who are learning English as their L2 and Bahasa as their L1. The research methodology involved meticulous documentation of the children's speech patterns, with three participants contributing to the investigation. Utilizing tree diagrams, the collected data was meticulously examined to assess the children's language production abilities. The findings revealed that by the age of one, the children had begun acquiring their L2, demonstrating proficiency in both English and Bahasa. Moreover, they displayed the capacity to comprehend and communicate effectively in both languages within the context of their everyday educational experiences.
