Abstract

Oral literature is a cultural expression that verbally transmits values from one generation to the next among the community supporters. This oral literature research aims at (1) presenting the stories' plots through the research's primary goal, 2) introducing the characters that appear in the story, (3) outlining the characters in the stories, (4) recognizing and explaining the settings of the stories, and 5) recognizing and defining symbols in the stories based on Yektingtyas's points of view (2016). The approach in this research incorporates literary criticism into secondary and primary qualitative data combined throughout the data collection process. The primary data were analyzed thoroughly, while the secondary data were utilized as references to analyze the primary data. The results show that Ilik was born to a mother under the shade without a father. Initially, the narrative focused solely on the character's day-to-day activities. The folks washing the pig gut rope cast away and flung the dog with the stone when he tried to devour the remaining portion. The pregnant woman and her children arrived in the village the following day to cook the raw pork they had managed to rescue. The portrait of this literary work depicts the characters’ lives and social harmony, allowing them to nurture indigenous values while learning to explore more life lessons from society.

Abstract

The Indonesian Island of Irian Jaya, home to the Papuan people, is distinguished by its extensive linguistic diversity, featuring more than 300 indigenous languages, such as Dani, Lani, and Yali. This study examines the structural changes in these languages, specifically regarding their use of the Simple Present Tense. The study aims to investigate the function of grammatical structures in Dani, Lani, and Yali and to understand the implications of these changes for the respective linguistic communities. The study employed a rigorous methodology involving observations, interviews, and recording sessions with tribal leaders and key community stakeholders to systematically gather data from the relevant language groups. The findings provide substantial insights into the grammatical alterations in these languages, enhancing understanding of the linguistic dynamics in Papua. This research aids in preserving linguistic heritage and enhances educational methodologies on the island. This work highlights the importance of preserving Papua's distinctive linguistic diversity and enhancing our understanding of its complex grammatical transformations through the documentation and analysis of these under-researched languages.
