International Journal of Linguistics and Indigenous Culture (IJLIC) explores and contributes to the field of linguistics, with a specific emphasis on indigenous languages and cultures worldwide. The journal aims to publish research articles, scholarly papers, and studies that delve into various aspects of linguistics, including language structure, phonetics, syntax, semantics, Pragmatics, sociolinguistics, language preservation, language revitalization, and language policies, all within the context of indigenous cultures. It serves as a platform for researchers, linguists, anthropologists, and experts to share insights, knowledge, and findings related to the intricate relationships between language, culture, and society, particularly about indigenous communities. The journal seeks to promote cross-cultural understanding, celebrate linguistic diversity, and contribute to preserving and appreciating indigenous languages and cultures worldwide through its diverse range of contributions. The International Journal of Linguistics and Indigenous Culture (IJLIC) is an open-access scholarly publication committed to advancing the exploration and comprehension of linguistics within the global context of indigenous cultures.

Abstract

This study investigates the indigeneity of the seven tribes of Bukidnon province through the Kaamulan Festival 2025. The festive celebration brings not only entertainment but also an exploration to know about the indigenous people and their culture. To carrried out the study, the researcher employed the ethnographic research method to describe the observed activities. A casual interview was done to few locals encountered. The immersion involved the use of field notes, cameras, and audio/video records. The findings discovered the participation from the seven tribes gathering in Malaybalay City is equally given importance in the celebration. Their presence through showcasing their practices, rituals, dances, and songs through performances helped to understand the Kaamulan festival. The festival is comprised of various events and exhibitions signifying unity. Primarily, the highlights of the Kaamulan is centered to ‘piniliyapan’, ‘pamalabag’, ‘pangampo’, etc. in branding its event. Authentic experience is engrained in the performances due to the real members of the indigenous people. They are performing their usual daily activities back home in their village. However, the authenticity of few and well-choreographed movements might eradicate the original and naturalness of particular cultural performance. This implies a delimma on authenticity. Hence to explore this, it is recommended to fully validate movements and actions to the people themselves. Their authority entails respect and establishing orientation to the multiple stakeholders who organize the Kaamulan.

Abstract

Ayoreo, a Zamucoan language of the Gran Chaco, lacks a formal word class for articles, presenting a significant challenge for understanding how universal functional domains of reference are realized in languages with limited descriptions. This research addresses a notable lacuna in the literature regarding a systematic analysis of the grammatical encoding of definiteness in Ayoreo. The primary objective is to characterize the diverse morphosyntactic and discursive mechanisms—including nominal suffixes, possessive prefixes, and demonstratives—that manage identifiability, familiarity, and uniqueness. Employing a mixed onomasiological and semasiological approach, the study analyzes a first-hand corpus collected between 2011 and 2022, supplemented by secondary sources and controlled elicitation. Previous studies reveal a specialized triple nominal marking system: the "full form" serves as the primary vehicle for definite reference, while the "indeterminate form" marks referential but non-specific entities. Additionally, a complex three-degree demonstrative system and possessive prefixes provide essential situational, anaphoric, and associative anchoring. Semantic mapping confirms that proper names and personal pronouns inherently encode uniqueness and familiarity. The study shows that although Ayoreo lacks independent articles, its robust suffixal and pronominal strategies satisfy cross-linguistic criteria for article-like functions. These results contribute essential data to the description of Chaco languages and facilitate broader typological comparisons of referential systems, suggesting that definiteness can be effectively realized through fusional morphology rather than independent word classes.

Abstract

Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) is widely recognized as an important factor contributing to students’ academic success, particularly in online and technology-enhanced learning environments. This study examined the role of demographic factors in students’ use of SRL strategies in higher education. A quantitative survey design was employed involving 236 university students from public and private universities on Lombok Island, Indonesia. Data were collected using the Indonesian adaptation of the Online SRL Questionnaire (OSLQ). Independent-samples t-tests and one-way analyses of variance (ANOVA) were conducted to examine differences in SRL strategies based on gender, age group, field of specialization, and year level. The findings revealed no statistically significant differences in SRL strategies between male and female students, t(94.41) = 0.55, p = .587. Similarly, no significant differences were found across age groups, F(3, 232) = 2.36, p = .073, fields of specialization, F(4, 231) = 1.11, p = .352, or year levels, F(2, 233) = 2.63, p = .075. The effect sizes for all analyses were small, indicating that demographic characteristics explained little variation in students’ SRL strategies. The findings suggest that SRL may be influenced more by psychological, instructional, and environmental factors than by demographic characteristics. Implications for higher education practice and future research are discussed.

Abstract

The Baram–Tinjar region of northern Sarawak is among Borneo's most linguistically diverse areas, yet it remains severely under-documented in comparative linguistics, despite sporadic scholarly attention since the mid-nineteenth century. This study explores how reflexive, ethnographically grounded fieldwork practices influence the quality, reliability, and comparative value of phonological and lexical data collected from severely underdocumented minority languages. The data presented from doctoral fieldwork conducted among minority languages in north Sarawak, including Narum, Kayan, Kiput, Miriek, Berawan, Bakong, and Tireng, documenting phonological systems, lexical inventories, and narrative data through ethnographic engagement. Framed as a comparative-historical linguistic study, the article examines fieldwork methodology, researcher positionality, relationship-building, and the social conditions of data collection as variables that directly affect data quality and historical-linguistic findings. Findings show that sustained, relationship-based fieldwork (rather than single-visit elicitation) yields more naturalistic and reliable comparative data, and that researcher reflexivity functions as a methodological control, not merely an ethical disclosure. Building on these findings, the study discusses how the resulting documentation can also support community-oriented revitalisation outputs, including pedagogical materials and local archives, as applications of documentation rather than the study's primary research aim. Overall, the study demonstrates that integrating comparative linguistics with reflexive fieldwork yields more defensible historical-linguistic data and generates practical resources for the documented communities.
