Abstract

Department of Culture and Tourism in Bandung harnesses the power of its official Instagram account, @disbudpar.bdg, to promote the citys diverse tourist attractions and cultural richness. This study conducts an in-depth analysis of the various topics presented on the account that showcase the multifaceted nature of Sundanese culinary traditions. The researchers collected culinary information from 642 posts on Instagram feeds, resulting in 118 data points considering various cuisines, both traditional and modern. The focus of this study is on 86 data points related to traditional meals and beverages in 2022. Employing van Dijks Critical Discourse Analysis within the micro-structure theory, the descriptive qualitative method was used for the analysis. The findings reveal four distinct classifications of topics related to culinary diversity. They are the diversity of traditional Sundanese meals (66 data), the diversity of traditional Sundanese beverages (2 data), restaurants offering traditional foods and beverages (16 data), and ingredients for traditional pastries (2 data). Additionally, the analysis uncovers the use of interrogative sentences, declarative sentences, and lexical choices that effectively support and describe the promotion of culinary diversity as a prominent tourist attraction in Bandung. Interrogative sentences engaged followers, declarative sentences provided factual insights, and diverse lexical choices enticed readers to appreciate Bandungs culinary offerings.

Abstract

Understanding cross-cultural communication is an important aspect of determining the success of communication. Understanding cross-cultural communication is the key to the success of communication (Griffin, 2010). Differences in cultural value orientation also cause differences in cross-cultural communication. What is considered good or bad behaviour, appropriate or inappropriate, polite or impolite in one culture is often perceived as different or contradictory to other cultures. This paper discusses cross-cultural understanding for international students regarding salutations and cultural expressions in the Indonesian language from a sociolinguistics point of view. This research uses a descriptive method. The data collection technique was done virtually by interviewing and filling out questionnaires. By applying the theory of Gudykunst (2003) and Gudykunst and Ting-Toomey (in Jati, 2013), this study quantitatively tested the impact of culture on direct and indirect communication. There are so many theories that discuss the differentiating factors in the emergence of cross-cultural communication. (Liliweri, 2009) explains that several systems cause differences in cross-cultural communication. The study results reveal that cultural expressions should consider cultural aspects in addressing people in certain cultures. The aspects emerge in the stratification of people in society by politely addressing them for those who are respected. They can give titles when addressing them in their equality, the same status, the same position, and other cultural perspectives. The use of the title Bapak/Pak, Ibu/Bu, Mbak, Mas, Adik/Dik, and Kakak/Kak need the students' cultural knowledge. Moreover, the study indicates how international students in Indonesian academic settings should understand implicit cultural expressions such as mau ke mana, dari mana, and apa kabar. Those expressions tend to be understood not only linguistically but also culturally.

Abstract

Place names are more than administrative labels. They retain traces of settlement, migration, and contact between speech communities, and they shift as those communities shift. Indonesian toponymic research has grown quickly over the past decade, yet border municipalities formed through recent administrative expansion remain thinly documented, and few studies bring etymological reconstruction, cultural classification, and spatial analysis together within a single design. This article addresses that gap by examining twenty-one of the twenty-five villages of Banjar City, a young municipality located directly on the boundary between West Java and Central Java. Qualitative description is combined with frequency counts, drawing on interviews with community figures and residents, field observation, archival and cartographic records, and a toponym corpus compiled from Sundanese, Javanese, Kawi, and Sanskrit lexicographic sources. Polymorphemic names dominate the corpus, accounting for 17 of 21 names or 81%, and sari is the most productive bound element with nine occurrences. Socio-historical motivation accounts for 13 names or 62%, a pattern consistent with plantation era labour migration from Central Java and with later village formation under municipal expansion. Physical features continue to shape naming more strongly than non-physical ones, yet they do so mainly within the older settlement cores. The study contributes in two ways. It documents a border city toponymic system that has not previously been described, and it argues that toponymic stratification in contact zones is better understood as layered coexistence than as replacement, since older ecological names and newer evaluative names occupy distinct portions of the same municipal space instead of succeeding one another.
