This study aims to analyze the impact of the use of regional languages in daily life on Indonesian language learning at SMKN 1 Loksado. In a multilingual environment such as Loksado, where regional languages such as Meratus and Banjar are predominantly spoken, there is a shift in students' attitudes and understanding of Indonesian. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation.

Although regional languages enrich local culture, a balanced pedagogical approach is needed so that students are still able to master Indonesian properly and correctly
