Abstract

Through the study of Virtual Linguistic Landscape (LLV), this descriptive qualitative research aims to explore the contestation of Indonesian language in a virtual multilingual space with Indonesian people as the majority, namely the r/Indonesia subreddit community, within a social media site dominated by English speakers, Reddit. Each of the top-down contents made by the community moderators and bottom-ups made by the community members is observed. The analysis consists of the identification of the language dominance as well as the informational and symbolic functions behind the use of the languages in both types of content to further elaborate the significance of the dynamic. The research found that although members of the community are mostly Indonesian, English dominates all top-down contents. This domination functions informationally as a form of language accommodation while symbolically signifying that positive attitude is more assigned to English than Indonesian language as a status symbol. However, both English and Indonesian language dominate various different bottom-up contents. While the use of both languages also functions informationally as a form of language accommodation, the symbolic functions are more significant. That is, English as a marker of competence within the space designed for niche discussions and Indonesian language as a form of closeness and solidarity among members. Additionally, the use of English in the semi-formal bottom-up content indicates an influence of language choice by the top-down contents.

Abstract

In multilingual societies of former Western colonies, modernism is often pinned on English as the international lingua franca, thus shifting the mother tongue/regional language which is considered of lower value. In the discussion of post-structuralism, language use contributes to identity construction, one of which is gender identity. Inequality of gendered cultural expectations in multilingualism is problematic as it reasons gender disparities in the workforce, among many others. Using a mixed method of quantitative and qualitative study, this research investigates patterns of language dominance on public signs belonging to space with the concept of gender segregation, specifically salons/barber shops, in the urban area of Jombang Regency, that is Jombang sub-district, through a Linguistic Landscape (LL) study. In result, all signs with the target market of women, men, and both display the call for modernism through constant use of English and Indonesian language, which notably overrides Javanese as the mother tongue and everyday language of the people. However, multilingualism in women exhibits the “new economic pattern” where education and work opportunities are equal/almost equal. Even so, there appears to be an indication of higher expectations for men to be capable of understanding English than women through significant use of monolingual English signs.
