Abstract

The borrowing of foreign lexicon in Indonesian is well documented. However, to date, research on Korean loanwords has remained unavailable. Against the backdrop of the Korean Wave (hallyu), this paper discusses the phonological adaptation of Korean loanwords in Indonesian and the way these loanwords contribute to the Indonesian lexical landscape. By collecting data on Korean culture from a selection of Instagram and Twitter (now X) accounts from the Indonesian community, our corpus shows that besides nouns, Korean loanwords also include adjectives and verbs. We identified 52 loanwords related to the domain of popular culture, including film, music, and food. The different phonological systems of Korean and Indonesian determine the assimilation processes in the Indonesian vocabulary. Since this paper involves big data stored in a corpus, it has the capacity to provide new insight in the ways Korean loanwords and their phonological structure are integrated in Indonesian and become linguistically acceptable.

Abstract

The article reveals the linguistic landscape study of angkringan names in Semarang City. It covers language preference, language inference, and language preservation on signages. Researchers collected 140 pictures of angkringan signages from 10 sub-districts of Semarang. Observation and interviews are also conducted to obtain comprehensive linguistic landscape data. Qualitative analysis indicates that there are two naming patterns: monolingual and bilingual. The monolingual analysis identifies that the most preferred language code is Javanese, followed by Indonesian, English, and Sanskrit. Meanwhile, in the bilingual pattern, the dominant language combination used is Indonesian-Javanese, followed by Javanese-English, Javanese-Indonesian, Javanese-Dutch, Sanskrit-English, and Sundanese-English. Meanwhile, angkringan names draw references from diverse sources, including people, places, slogans, hopes, objects, menus, mythological figures, and numbers. In terms of language preservation, this study identified that Javanese is predominantly used on angkringan signages for small-scale entrepreneurs as an identity, while big-scale entrepreneurs focus on attracting customers. This implies that economic factors are one of the driving forces behind the use of Javanese on signs.

Abstract

The expanding use of the word halal in Indonesian has become a prominent phenomenon. Despite this development, empirical diachronic studies that systematically examine the evolution of the word halal in Indonesian public discourse remain limited. This study addresses two research questions: (1) How has the use of the word halal evolved in Republika.co.id from 2010 to 2022? Moreover, (2) What topics were discussed in relation to the use of the word halal during this period? Adopting a corpus-based approach, this study utilises the corpus analysis tool Sketch Engine to examine a corpus of 1,132 news articles on halal published by Republika.co.id between 2010 and 2022. The findings indicate that the use of the word halal increased markedly, particularly during the final four years (2019–2022). This surge coincided with several key policy initiatives introduced by the Indonesian government, including the implementation of mandatory halal certification, the establishment of halal industrial zones, and the promotion of a broader halal ecosystem. Collocation analysis further reveals a notable expansion in the discourse’s thematic scope. While early coverage primarily focused on halal products, discussions gradually shifted toward broader themes related to the halal industry and halal economy. Overall, this study provides an empirical account of the diachronic transformation in the use of the word halal in mass media and demonstrates a correlation between government policy agendas and the dynamics of public discourse.

Abstract

Sharenting among Muslim momfluencers has emerged as a significant social phenomenon, often blending parenting documentation with Islamic values through religious linguistic codes. This study analyzes the use of terms, phrases, and symbols rooted in Islamic teachings within sharenting content on Instagram. Using a sociolinguistic approach, the research explores how verbal elements construct religious identity while simultaneously engaging a digital audience. Data were collected via digital observation of a Muslim momfluencer’s Instagram content, focusing on the intersection of religious values, motherhood, and daily life. The analysis examines captions containing Quranic verses, hadiths, prayers, and Islamic terminology to identify how these codes are delivered and influenced by socio-cultural contexts. The findings reveal that religious linguistic codes are used strategically to convey Islamic values, establish emotional connections, and enhance the influencer’s religious persona. Beyond mere expression, these codes serve as an effective branding method to attract like-minded Muslim audiences. Complemented by visual cues such as syar'i attire and symbols of worship, sharenting becomes a performative medium for promoting religious narratives and generating social capital. This research provides critical insights into the evolving relationship between language, religion, and parenting in the social media era.

Abstract

Transboundary haze has gained critical attention from global scholars since its impacts on society, economics, and health are prevalent in mass media. This study aims to examine transboundary haze from an ecolinguistic viewpoint of Indonesian and Malaysian mainstream media. From the data collected, this study; 1) analyses the themes of transboundary haze news in Indonesian and Malaysian media and 2) interprets the themes represented in the discourse ecologically. Using corpus analytical tools provided by Sketch Engine, this study examined the corpuss keywords, collocations, and concordances. Findings show that, despite some identical themes, Indonesian mass media foreground the fires location, mitigation action, and non-human species impacted by the haze. In contrast, Malaysian mass media focuses on the affected areas and health issues. Both media involved similar strategies to frame the government as the responsible agent for mitigating the fires and haze. Ecologically, the discourse of transboundary haze in Indonesian and Malaysian mass media is ambivalent. In Indonesian media, transboundary haze is regarded as a disaster rather than a conflict due to human activities related to land clearings, whereas Malaysian media captures transboundary haze as a health and pollution issue. The ambivalent discourse is proven by the lack of human activities that cause transboundary haze, even though the media advocates for environmental and health issues as prevalent themes in news broadcasts. Ecologically, this study recommends mass media to emphasise the anthropocentric causes of transboundary haze to raise public awareness about human activities and their environmental consequences.

Abstract

Javanese culture is widely characterized as a high-context society that prioritizes indirect communication to maintain social harmony. This study empirically tests this long-held assumption by examining the pragmatic structure of directive speech acts in contemporary data. Data were drawn from twenty short films produced by the Provincial Government of the Special Region of Yogyakarta and analyzed using a qualitative-dominant mixed-methods approach. Contrary to the classical paradigm, the analysis reveals a prevalent use of head act-oriented structures, indicating a preference for direct communication. This directness is frequently strategically combined with mitigating adjuncts, while the use of aggravating adjuncts is rare. Furthermore, a tendency toward simple pragmatic structures highlights a cultural emphasis on clarity and efficiency. These findings challenge the notion that indirectness is a necessary component of politeness. Instead, they suggest that in modern Javanese communication, directness and politeness operate as complementary, rather than contradictory, goals. Concise and direct utterances are not inherently impolite but are interpreted within the governing sociocultural and hierarchical context. This finding also indicates a sociolinguistic shift towards more direct and effective communication due to modernization.
