Abstract

This study aimed to describe the forms of social stratification in Arundhati Roy’s novel The God of Small Things. The object of the study was the novel written by Arundhati Roy. The analysis focused on the depiction of social hierarchy and inequality among the characters in the story. The study applied a sociological approach using the theory by (Zahara & Anwar, 2021:24), which stated that there were three dimensions of social stratification in society: wealth (economic class), prestige (social status), and power. The research method used was descriptive qualitative, with data collected in the form of words, phrases, and sentences found in the novel. The results of the study showed that wealth was reflected through differences in the economic background of the characters, prestige was portrayed through caste position and family reputation, while power appeared in the form of authority, influence, and control exercised by certain characters over others. These three dimensions interacted to form a complex picture of social inequality that affected the relationships, lives, and conflicts of the characters in the novel. The findings emphasized that social stratification was not only a background element of the story but also a key factor driving the dynamics of conflict and the development of the plot in The God of Small Things.

Abstract

Analyzing the meaning of sign on a traditional house is essential as language is part of the semiotic system in society. It is also an effort to preserve the local cultural values. This research investigates the meaning of the sign on the Saga traditional house. The methodology employed is descriptive qualitative that aims to explore, understand, and interpret the meaning of each sign associated with complex human experience, behaviors, cultures, and social phenomena. The principal finding of this research is that the meaning of signs is related to social protection, leadership, authority, ownership, social welfare, women's preservation and beauty, cultural strength, resilience, and defensiveness. Moreover, this research demonstrated that the preservation of the meaning of the signs becomes the medium of social communication between the local community and the ancestors. This research recommends that to improve the comprehension of language meaning, it is crucial to incorporate the conceptual understanding of semiotic meaning on social and cultural features into the linguistics courses.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the form, meaning and function of indigenous languages in the Teing Hang Empo ceremony which was carried out in Compang Wunis Village, East Manggarai regency, East Nusa Tenggara province. In particular, this research focuses on the language expressed used in this traditional ceremony, namely kepok and torok. In analyzing the form, meaning and function of the two ritual expressions mentioned above, the author uses a qualitative method by referring to the theory of form, the meaning of the language of ritual Palmer 1996; Sharifian 2017 and the function of Language by Hudson, 1986. The results of data analysis show two forms of customary language or ritual language, namely the form of parallelism and the form of metaphor. Similarly, from the meaning of ritual language there are three meanings, namely collective meaning, hope for success and religious meaning. The function of ritual language has three functions, namely the poetic function, the conative function and the emotive function or expressive function.

Abstract

he objective of this study is to analyze the language development of a 1-year-7-month-old child named Ary, with a focus on phonological and semantic aspects. The research was conducted through a three-month observation period, during which interactions between Ary and his surroundings, particularly his mother, were meticulously documented.The findings indicate that, in the phonological aspect, Ary has demonstrated the ability to produce various words, although there are pronunciation errors such as with the letters "L" and "R" (puyang for ennen, kokok for rokok). These errors are typical and reflect the articulation development process at his age. In the semantic aspect, the child has begun to demonstrate an understanding and use of words with more complex meanings, such as api for "hot" and amen for "prayer."The study also found that communication strategies such as motherese, recasting, echoing, and expanding play a crucial role in supporting the child's language development. These strategies provide linguistic stimulation that helps the child enrich his vocabulary, improve his pronunciation, and build simple sentence structures. The study's findings underscore the pivotal role of social interaction, particularly that of parents, in facilitating children's language development.These findings resonate with the theories propounded by Vygotsky and Brunner, which accentuate the significance of environmental support and the sociocultural context in attaining optimal language development.
