Abstract

This study examines the phonetic changes that occur in the Indonesian language among Indonesian speakers. The aim of this study is to provide a comprehensive analysis of Bahasa using the framework of Optimality Theory. The primary objective of this study is to provide a comprehensive description of the facts and give a theoretical framework for the alteration of phonemes in Bahasa. Additionally, it aims to examine how native speakers pronounce and utilise these phonemes in communication. Phonemic intervention gives rise to various issues, such as assimilation. One potential way to address this issue is the use of Optimality Theory. This study focuses on analysing the diphthong /ai/ in Bahasa Indonesia and its interaction with other phonemes using the framework of Optimality Theory. The study of optimality theory and assimilation in diphthongs enhances our comprehension in specific words of Bahasa Indonesia phonology. Additionally, evidence highlights the significant presence of implicit figures in recent advancements in Optimality Theory.

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.
