As a multilingual country, the Indonesian government has set the positions of local language, national language, and foreign language in education through Law of National Education System No.20 of 2003, Chapter VII, Article 33. Fifteen years passed and this paper seeks to find the results of the law in higher education students by investigating the patterns of language use of multilingual students in English Literature Study Program of FBS UNY. This is a descriptive study with parallel mixed method design. The data in this study were responses upon questions in the questionnaires distributed to respondents where the results were then analyzed quantitatively by using SPSS (17) and the results of interviews were analyzed qualitatively. The source of data in this study were 162 respondents who were students of English Literature study program, Faculty of Languages and Arts, Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta year 2015-2017. The results show that at home, more than 60% of students use Javanese with intimacy and habit as motivating factors. As English Literature students, they are more exposed to media in Bahasa Indonesia. On the campus, English is only used for academic purposes, Bahasa Indonesia for communicating with lecturers while Javanese is for a casual talk with classmates. Javanese is close to traditional commerce while for the modern one, they prefer to use Bahasa Indonesia. For cognitive and mental activities, Bahasa Indonesia is the most dominant, and Javanese is used more than English. These results imply that rather than conforming to the law made by the government, contexts play a more important role in forming people’s language choices.Keywords: multilingualism, local language, national language, foreign language, English Literature UNY POLA PENGGUNAAN BAHASA MAHASISWA MULTILINGUAL JURUSAN BAHASA INGGRISSebagai negara multibahasa, pemerintah Indonesia telah menetapkan posisi bahasa daerah, bahasa nasional, dan bahasa asing dalam pendidikan melalui Undang-Undang Sistem Pendidikan Nasional No.20 tahun 2003, Bab VII, Pasal 33.

Publisher : Department of Applied Linguistics, Graduate School of Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta

The data-based research on which this article is based aimed at (1) describing the thematic progression variation of The Great Gatsby texts, (2) describing the contextual factors that motivate the variation in question, and (3) describing the effects of the variation on the texts as translational texts. The study applied a qualitative approach which employed a sematic-translational content analysis of qualitative and quantiative data. The results show that thematic progression variation falls into the low category at average indicated by the mean score of 0.76. The most prominent variation was repre-sented by the low category of variation. The variations were performed by adding or omitting Themes, splitting one units of thematic structure into more than one unit, downranking, not expressing and creating new clauses. The factors that motivate the variation are the different linguistic properties bet-ween English and Bahasa Indonesia and the situational contexts. In terms of effects, the variation caused dangling clauses which cannot be identified from which they are developed.Keywords: thematic progression, thematic structure, Theme, Rheme

The power imbalance between men and women in society is reflected in their language use and it may be reinforced in sexist jokes. This is a sociolinguistic study on men’s language in sexist jokes on the Internet. This study is aimed at investigating men’s linguistic features and the masculine identities represented by those features. This is a descriptive qualitative study with complementary quantitative analysis. The theories of Tannen’s men language (1990) and Kiesling’s masculine identities (2007) were used as references to analyze the data. The results show that men’s identity of competing for solidarity embodied in discourses of insults, teasing, and joking is the most dominant identity represented in sexist jokes. This is in line with the main intention of sexist humor to laugh at women’s inferiority. Meanwhile, men’s dominance realized in report talk becomes the second most prevalent identity. The identities of politeness oaf, indicated by direct command, and freedom, shown by swearing and taboo words, are not influential as both do not contribute to the making of humorous expressions. These imply that context and communication purposes motivate speakers to use gender-related features. Reflecting that most of the masculine identities and the language features in sexist jokes represent men’s superiority, this kind of humor can be a way to maintain gender asymmetry in society. Besides, although humor leads to laughter and is considered healthy, sexist humor is dangerous as the expressions subordinate women. Therefore, being critical when reading the jokes and trying to avoid such jokes in communication is suggested.

In pronunciation classes, most teachers over-emphasize the accuracy part and ignore the fluency aspects (Elliot, 1995; Yoshida, 2016). To enhance both accuracy and fluency for Chinese students’ pronunciation in Bahasa Indonesia (BI), this study investigates the effects of combining instruction and immersion. This was classroom action research conducted for one semester at Qujing Normal University (QJNU), Yunnan Sheng, China. Audiolingual Method (ALM) with drilling technique was the instruction procedure while the outdoor project was the technique in the immersion. The research subjects were nine first-semester students in the Indonesian Language Department of QJNU. Their score improvements from the pre- to post-assessments indicate that combining these two methods is effective in enhancing students’ pronunciation in BI. The instruction conducted through explicit phonetic teaching and drilling is appropriate for habituating them with accurate pronunciation. Meanwhile, the fun and enjoyable immersion in contextual settings boosts their fluency and gives them opportunities to explore and practice using the words they have learned in real contexts. Along with pronunciation improvement, enhancement in students’ learning attitude and engagement in the learning activities are the other benefits that may contribute to their success in gaining full fluency in the second language.

Politeness might lessen imposition in argumentative conversations which potentially result in conflict. However, different conventions on politeness among different cultures may cause problems for EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners who often transfer their native communication preferences to their target language usage. This article explores the (im)politeness employed by multilingual EFL learners in casual agreeing-disagreeing exchanges among peers. Using explanatory sequential mixed method design, students’ utterances in role plays were analyzed based on Leech’s (2014) politeness theory, Kakava’s (1993) disagreement strategies, as well as Locher’s (2004) mitigating strategies on disagreement. It is found that in conversations with people of equal status and power, the observance of politeness maxims is more apparent than the violation. It indicates that maintaining others’ faces is essential irrespective of age differences, even in arguing conversations. The more frequent use of positive politeness than negative politeness strategies represents their greater orientation to others than to themselves. The prevalence of mitigated disagreement and the frequent use of an appreciation preface also show their priority to maintaining good relationships. Those findings support the view of Asians as a collectivistic group whose primary concern in communication is group membership. This suggests that awareness of politeness in argumentative conversations among EFL learners must be increased by giving them different perspectives from non-Asian cultures.

This study specifically aims at 1) finding and interpreting the frequencies of the interrelation between the codeswitching types and functions, and 2) describing the communication features of a Javanese culture online forum based on the codeswitching patterns. By using a mixed-method design, this study used qualitative data to explain the quantitative results. The data were multilingual utterances in a webinar. The study found that 1) some frequent codeswitching patterns occur in the webinar are: insertion-referential (40.4%), tag-expressive (20.1%), congruent lexicalization-referential (18.0%), congruent lexicalization-expressive (9.5%), intersentential-directive (2.8%), insertion-metalingual (2.1%), congruent lexicalization-metalingual (1.8%), insertion-directive (0.5%), insertion-expressive (0.5%), alternation-expressive (0.3%), congruent lexicalization-phatic (0.3%), and tag-phatic (0.2%). 2) Those patterns suit the nature of the events and the sociocultural background of the people involved. The dominant employment of cultural terms with no equivalent translations and the hierarchical and non-egalitarian Javanese society were the factors motivating the dominant occurrence of the referential and expressive functions of codeswitching.Kajian ini secara spesifik bertujuan untuk 1) menemukan dan menginterpretasikan frekuensi interelasi antara jenis dan fungsi alih kode, dan 2) mendeskripsikan fitur komunikasi forum daring kebudayaan Jawa berdasarkan pola alih kode tersebut. Dengan desain metode campuran, penelitian ini menggunakan data kualitatif untuk menjelaskan hasil kuantitatif. Datanya adalah ujaran multibahasa dalam sebuah webinar. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa 1) beberapa pola alih kode yang sering terjadi adalah: insertion-reference (40.4%), tag-expressive (20.1%), congruent lexicalization-reference (18.0%), congruent lexicalization-expressive (9.5%), intersentential-directive (2.8%), insertion-metalingual (2.1%), congruent lexicalization-metalingual (1.8%), insertion-directive (0.5%), insertion-expressive (0.5%), alternation expressive (0.3%), congruent lexicalization-phatic (0.3%), dan tag-phatic (0.2%). 2) Pola tersebut sesuai dengan karakter peristiwa tutur dan latar belakang sosial budaya masyarakat yang terlibat. Penggunaan istilah-istilah budaya yang dominan tanpa terjemahan yang setara dan masyarakat Jawa yang hirarkis dan non-egaliter menjadi faktor-faktor yang melatarbelakangi munculnya fungsi alih kode referensial dan ekspresif yang dominan.
