Abstract

This study addresses three main inquiries: 1) How to effectively classify Indonesian words based on frequency? 2) What are the distinctive characteristics of words across various proficiency levels? 3) How is vocabulary utilized in BIPA teaching materials? The article aims to create a graded vocabulary list to assess lexical complexity by examining word distribution in texts. Using a quantitative descriptive method, high-frequency words are chosen from eight widely-used Chinese BIPA language sources and categorized into frequency tiers using the %WF>=P method. The graded word list is then applied to BIPA textbooks to assess discourse difficulty. A total of 5,700 word families are organized into five proficiency grades based on cumulative frequencies. Analysis reveals that high-frequency words show a balanced distribution across materials, with a prevalence of polysemous words and concentrated word lengths. Low-frequency words are more domain-specific, emphasizing specific meanings and displaying a broader range of lengths. Examining word usage in different texts indicates alignment between Indonesian teaching materials, academic journals, newspapers, and audio-visual materials with BIPA textbooks. Speech scripts and public documents are more suitable for advanced teaching, while social media language differs notably from BIPA textbooks.

Abstract

Indonesia, as a multicultural country with a wide diversity of cultures, religions, and ethnicities, emphasizes the importance of promoting inclusivity and preserving local identity through education. This study aims to evaluate the suitability of multicultural themes and representations of West Javanese cultural contexts in 1,000 books donated by the National Library to 10,000 community reading parks in 2024. This study is a qualitative descriptive study using the content analysis method. The population in this study was books obtained from Librarians at the National Library, while the sample was selected using a purposive sampling technique, which came from 1000 books with a multicultural context and representation of the West Java cultural context. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis techniques were carried out using content analysis. The results showed that 35.19% of the books evaluated discussed multicultural themes. This theme was more common at the intermediate and advanced reader levels (B3 and C) than at the beginner level (A). Books specifically themed around West Java only represented 4.81% of the collection, highlighting the limitations of local cultural narratives. This study concludes that there is great potential to strengthen regional identity, foster pride in cultural heritage, and provide insight into traditional values through the provision of books on cultural heritage.
