Abstract

Penelitian ini mengkaji peran gereja, Romo (imam Katolik) dan umat Katolik dalam pemertahanan bahasa dan budaya Jawa dalam ranah kegerejaan, dengan menempatkan misa berbahasa Jawa sebagai ranah penggunaan bahasa (Fishman, 1965) dan wadah pembentukan register atau ‘enregisterment’ kombinasi semiotik yang mengindeks identitas Katolik Jawa (Agha, 2003). Tujuan utama riset ini adalah untuk mengeksplorasi bagaimana misa berbahasa Jawa dipertahankan dan mengapa hal ini terus dilakukan di tengah penurunan penggunaan bahasa Jawa, khususnya untuk generasi muda. Data penelitian diperoleh dari wawancara dan Diskusi Kelompok Terpumpun (DKT) bersama beberapa Romo serta umat di beberapa paroki urban di Yogyakarta. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa keberlangsungan misa berbahasa Jawa merupakan hasil investasi berbagai pihak – baik dari segi administratif, pelatihan, maupun penyediaan teks. Hal ini didasari kebijakan kelembagaan gereja yang didukung oleh komitmen filosofis untuk nguri-uri (melestarikan) budaya Jawa dari berbagai pemangku kepentingan di lingkungan gereja. Kedua hal ini menegaskan pentingnya peran penutur bahasa dalam memelihara praktik kebahasaan yang mendukung pembentukan identitas kultural mereka.

Abstract

Penelitian ini membahas konstruksi kausatif morfologis bahasa Indonesia yang ditandai dengan sufiks {-kan}. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengklasifikasikan tipe semantis konstruksi kausatif morfologis {-kan} berdasarkan prototipe ketransitifan dan perilaku sintaktisnya.  Data diambil dari korpus berita Indonesia tahun 2024 (Leipzig Corpora Collection) dengan total lebih dari 21 juta token, kemudian dijaring menggunakan perangkat AntConc. Analisis dilakukan dengan kerangka teori Hopper & Thompson (1980, 2025) dan pengembangan teori tersebut oleh Croft (2003, 2012). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya dua tipe utama konstruksi kausatif morfologis: (1) tipe prototipikal, yang sesuai dengan definisi kausativisasi universal, ditandai dengan peningkatan valensi dari klausa intransitif menjadi transitif; dan (2) tipe kurang prototipikal, yang memperlihatkan ciri keadaan, agen non-insani, serta keterkenaan objek yang rendah. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa sufiks{-kan}dalam bahasa Indonesia memiliki fungsi yang lebih kompleks daripada sekadar penanda kausativisasi, karena juga berperan dalam proses aplikatif. Penelitian ini memperluas pemahaman tentang hubungan antara morfologi, sintaksis, dan semantik dalam konstruksi kausatif bahasa Indonesia, serta memberikan kontribusi pada kajian tipologi lintas bahasa.

Abstract

This study examines ellipsis in the opening segments (hooks) of TikTok cooking videos by @devina.hermawan and its role in attracting audience attention. Using a mixed-method exploratory sequential design, 17 hooks with ellipsis from videos uploaded during school holidays (2022–2025) were analyzed, followed by a survey of 103 respondents. Ellipsis frequently occurs in declarative sentences with verbal predicates and in complex and compound-complex sentences, making hooks concise and direct. It streamlines utterances while enhancing communicative effects by providing context, emphasizing benefits, and encouraging engagement. Politeness principles, particularly the tact and generosity maxims, dominate, fostering supportive and inclusive interactions. Quantitative analysis confirms that hooks significantly influence audience attraction, though other factors also play a role. This study contributes to understanding ellipsis as a communication strategy in digital culinary content and provides practical insights for designing effective hooks.

Abstract

The etyma group was used to study lexical variation in the Lampung Cikoneng language. This study focused on the distribution of etyma based on 52 body part vocabulary words and 25 kinship vocabulary words. Data collection techniques used purposive sampling, namely 15 informants from 15 observation points. This study used interview techniques. The results of the study show that there is high lexical variation in the Lampung Cikoneng language. Lexical variation in body part vocabulary shows a varied distribution of etyma of 1-7, with the group of 2 etyma being the most numerous. Meanwhile, kinship vocabulary shows a variation of one to five etyma, with three etyma as the most dominant pattern. The variations found include lexical and phonological differences and reflect the intensive influence of contact between the Lampung language and the Javanese and Sundanese languages. These findings confirm the existence of strong internal differentiation and enrich the study of dialectology and the dynamics of change in the Lampung language in the context of a multilingual society.

Abstract

This study analyzes the lexical similarity of ten regional languages in Indonesia, namely Jambi Malay (jax), Kerinci (kvr), Minangkabau (min), Banjar (bjn), Mentawai (mwv), Sasak (sas), Javanese (jav), Toba (tob), Angkola (akb), and Mandailing (btm), along with Indonesian (ind) as a lingua franca; the genetic status of the regional languages; and the separation times among the regional languages. Data were collected through field observations at ten locations, with three informants per language, gathering 257 glosses from core (L1), nature (L2), general (L3), and cultural (L4) vocabulary. The analysis was conducted in three stages: first, synchronic lexical similarity was calculated using the Jaccard method; second, genetic relationships were analyzed through lexicostatistics based on L1 and L2; third, glottochronology was used to estimate language separation times among the regional languages. The results indicate that no language pairs share high similarity; most fall into the low-to-moderate similarity category. Lexicostatistical analysis reveals that core languages (jax, kvr, min, and bjn) and peripheral languages (tob, akb, and btm) form distinct genetic families, while mwv is the most lexically isolated language. Estimates of separation times indicate that core languages have a more recent lineage, while other languages such as mwv, jav, and tob show earlier divergence periods. These findings confirm that geographic proximity does not always correlate with linguistic relationships and suggest the need to revise the classification of Indonesian languages available in online databases, particularly the position of mwv, which should be reclassified as part of the Barrier Island language group rather than part of the Sumatran group. This study also highlights the importance of using primary data in language documentation to provide a more accurate map of linguistic evolution for regional languages in the archipelago.

Abstract

This study investigates the linguistic landscape of the Indonesian National Shipping Company (PELNI) vessels, focusing on signage related to navigation, facilities, safety, and behavioral regulation. Data were collected through systematic documentation of room labels, prohibition signs, facility information, safety instructions, and general notices, and were supplemented by participatory observation and informal interviews with passengers and crew. The analysis reveals that the linguistic landscape is dominated by top-down signage produced by institutional authorities, with Indonesian consistently occupying the primary position, while English appears selectively as a supplementary language. Drawing on Landry and Bourhis’s (1997) framework, the study demonstrates that signage on PELNI ships serves both informational and symbolic functions: guiding spatial navigation and ensuring passenger safety, while simultaneously communicating institutional authority and reinforcing national identity. The results indicate that multilingual signage effectively coordinates safety procedures and administrative compliance, establishing the ship as a site of state authority. Ultimately, this research clarifies how the physical arrangement of signs on the Surabaya-Jayapura route manages passenger movement and enforces institutional rules within a confined maritime setting.

Abstract

Kata ‘sayang’ dalam bahasa Indonesia bersifat polisemi atau memiliki lebih dari satu makna sehingga dapat menimbulkan ambiguitas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk: (1) mendeskripsikan bentuk kolokasi yang muncul bersama kata sayang dalam korpus LCC Indonesia 2023; (2) mendeskripsikan makna polisemi kata ‘sayang’ berdasarkan kolokasi korpus LCC Indonesia 2023; dan (3) mengetahui bentuk prosodi semantik yang terbentuk dari pola kolokasi kata ‘sayang’ dalam korpus LCC Indonesia 2023. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif dengan pendekatan semantik disertai data kuantitatif pendukung berupa frekuensi munculnya kata ‘sayang’ dalam korpus. Data penelitian berupa 100 kata teratas dalam kolokasi dengan pengaturan L3-R3 Dice coefficient. Data tersebut kemudian dikelompokkan untuk mengetahui distribusi kelas kata dan dominasi makna. Penelitian ini dibatasi pada kata ‘sayang’ yang bermakna afektif dan evaluatif. Berdasarkan analisis distribusi kelas kata, diketahui bahwa kata ‘sayang’ paling dominan berkolokasi dengan nomina, kemudian diikuti verba, dan adverbia. Selain itu, kata ‘sayang’ yang bermakna afektif cenderung merepresentasikan prosodi positif, sedangkan yang bermakna evaluatif merepresentasikan prosodi negatif.

Abstract

Effective orthographic systems are essential for language documentation and revitalization. This study examines the orthographic transparency of six Rote speech varieties—Dela, Dengka, Tii, Lole, Termanu, and Rikou—focusing on the consistency of sound–symbol correspondences and their implications for language learning. Data were collected from published materials, field observations, and interviews with native speakers. The findings reveal inconsistencies in the representation of implosive consonants (/ɓ/, /ɗ/), the glottal stop (/ʔ/), and double vowels. These inconsistencies reduce orthographic transparency, hinder learnability, and disrupt grapheme–phoneme correspondences. The study highlights the importance of transparent and consistent orthographic representation for literacy development and language revitalization. It proposes recommendations for improving orthographic transparency across Rote speech varieties.

Abstract

Penelitian ini mengkaji metafora pada leksem ‘bunga’ dalam bahasa Indonesia dengan menggunakan metodologi linguistik korpus berlandaskan teori metafora. Data penelitian bersumber dari Korpus Leipzig Corpora Collection Indonesian 2022 dan dianalisis melalui distribusi frekuensi serta analisis konkordansi menggunakan CQPweb. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ‘bunga’ merupakan leksem yang sangat produktif secara metaforis dan berfungsi sebagai sarana kognitif untuk memahami konsep-konsep abstrak melalui pengalaman konkret. Berdasarkan klasifikasi bidang, metafora ‘bunga’ paling dominan muncul dalam ranah ekonomi, misalnya ‘suku bunga’, ‘bunga kredit’, dan ‘bunga bank’, yang memetakan keuntungan finansial sebagai proses pertumbuhan alami. Berdasarkan frasa, metafora struktural mendominasi data, sedangkan berdasarkan konteks, metafora orientasional lebih menonjol melalui orientasi spasial tinggi–rendah dan naik–turun. Metafora ontologis muncul dalam jumlah lebih terbatas dan berfungsi untuk mengobjektifikasi konsep abstrak dalam kerangka sosial dan institusional. Penelitian ini menawarkan kebaruan melalui pemetaan metafora ‘bunga’ berbasis data korpus, serta menegaskan bahwa metafora tersebut bersifat konvensional, stabil, dan berakar kuat dalam sistem kognitif bahasa Indonesia kontemporer.

Abstract

This study investigates translanguaging practices and linguistic creativity in trilingual Indonesian–English–Javanese Instagram videos by Vincanyoo, an Indonesian influencer. It aims to examine how translanguaging is manifested through verbal and multimodal resources and how these practices construct humor, linguistic creativity, and digital identity. Using a qualitative multimodal discourse analysis, this study analyzes seven Instagram videos uploaded in 2025, supported by an interview with the content creator. The data include spoken utterances, captions, hashtags, gestures, gaze, facial expressions, costumes, props, settings, and interview responses. ELAN-assisted transcription was used to organize the data into time-based analytical tiers, enabling the researcher to connect verbal language with embodied and visual resources. The findings show that Vincanyoo’s translanguaging practices are realized through Indonesian–English translanguaging, Indonesian–Javanese translanguaging, persona-based translanguaging, lexical borrowing, cultural translanguaging, prosodic exaggeration, and multimodal translanguaging. Indonesian functions as an accessibility bridge for wider audiences, English indexes coolness, modernity, and global identity, while Javanese indexes local intimacy, emotional intensity, domestic authority, and humor. The study also reveals that humor and creativity are constructed through contrasting personas such as Ibu Barat ‘Western Mom’, Ibu Jawa ‘Javanese Mom’, Istri Barat ‘Western Wife’, and Istri Jawa ‘Javanese Wife’, supported by gestures, costumes, props, and digital framing. This study contributes to translanguaging and digital sociolinguistic research by showing that regional languages such as Javanese can function as central resources for humor, identity construction, and multimodal creativity in Indonesian social media discourse.
