Abstract

This study investigates semantic shifts in contemporary Indonesian as observed in social media platforms. With the rapid growth of digital communication, language use has become increasingly dynamic, leading to notable changes in word meanings. The research aims to identify common lexical items that have undergone semantic change, classify the types of shifts (e.g., broadening, narrowing, amelioration, pejoration, and metaphorical extension), and analyze the sociolinguistic factors influencing these changes. Data were collected from Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok through purposive sampling of posts from 2020 to 2024. Qualitative analysis was conducted using a descriptive-semantic approach. The findings reveal that semantic change in Indonesian on social media is driven by youth subcultures, pop culture references, meme culture, and the need for concise and expressive communication. This study contributes to the understanding of contemporary language dynamics and highlights the role of social media as a catalyst for linguistic innovation in Indonesian.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of regional language interference on the sentence structure of the Indonesian language. Language interference, particularly from regional or local languages, is a common phenomenon in multilingual societies such as Indonesia. The research aims to identify patterns of syntactic interference that emerge when speakers use Indonesian influenced by their native regional languages. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through interviews, written texts, and recordings of daily conversations among bilingual speakers. The findings reveal that interference occurs in several aspects of sentence structure, including word order, subject-predicate agreement, and the use of conjunctions. Such interference can lead to deviations from standard Indonesian grammar, potentially affecting clarity and mutual understanding. This study highlights the need for increased awareness in both educational and communicative contexts to promote the correct use of standard Indonesian while respecting linguistic diversity.

Abstract

Language education in secondary schools often focuses on grammar and vocabulary, frequently neglecting the social contexts in which language is used. Sociolinguistics, as a discipline that examines language within its social context, offers a powerful framework for enriching language learning. This paper explores the application of a sociolinguistic approach to language instruction in Indonesian secondary schools. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive method supported by literature review and classroom observations, the study identifies various classroom strategies such as role-play, real-life simulations, and community-based language projects that align with sociolinguistic principles. Findings reveal that incorporating sociolinguistic elements into language teaching improves students’ communicative competence, especially in terms of pragmatic awareness and adaptability in diverse social interactions. Students also demonstrated increased motivation and engagement when learning was connected to their real-life experiences. The study concludes that a sociolinguistic approach not only enhances linguistic proficiency but also cultivates learners’ sociocultural awareness, preparing them for effective communication in a multilingual and multicultural society.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital technology has transformed the landscape of language education, including the teaching of Indonesian as a Foreign Language (BIPA). This study explores the effectiveness of digital media in facilitating the acquisition of the Indonesian language by foreign learners. The purpose of this research is to investigate how digital platforms—such as learning management systems, mobile applications, video conferencing tools, and interactive content—enhance the linguistic and communicative competence of BIPA students. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, using literature review as the main approach to synthesize findings from previous studies. Data were collected from scholarly articles, academic books, and reports relevant to the topic. The findings indicate that the use of digital media significantly improves student engagement, motivation, and understanding of linguistic structures and sociocultural contexts. Moreover, digital tools allow for more personalized learning experiences and real-time interaction with native speakers. However, the study also identifies challenges such as digital literacy gaps, infrastructure limitations, and the risk of cultural disconnection. In conclusion, digital media, when effectively integrated, can serve as a powerful means to enhance BIPA instruction, provided it is supported by pedagogical strategies and adequate teacher training.

Abstract

Language plays a fundamental role in shaping students' character, particularly at the primary education level where moral and social values begin to form. This study explores how language is used as a medium for character education at SDN 2 Berangah, focusing on everyday interactions between teachers and students, classroom discourse, and school programs that integrate character-building values. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that language is not only a tool for communication but also a key instrument in instilling values such as honesty, respect, responsibility, and cooperation. Teachers consciously use positive and directive language to model good behavior and reinforce desirable attitudes. Additionally, structured language-based activities such as storytelling, reflective dialogue, and moral-themed discussions are found to significantly contribute to students’ moral development. The study concludes that a strategic and consistent use of language within the school environment plays a critical role in developing the students’ character, and suggests that language-focused character education should be strengthened across all subjects and learning contexts.
