Abstract

The advancement of science and technology (scien-tech) is always accompanied by creation of novel terminologies. The more a language is used as a means of conveying information on new findings the more the language is enriched with new meaning, be it represented in a form of borrowing, new invention, blend, coinage, or common words with new meaning. This has necessitated scien-tech stakeholders to face the challenge of whether to borrow through transliteration or to adopt as well as adapt such terminologies for the benefit of utilizing information to flow effectively. A problem that appears is how to provide counterparts of such terminologies considering that the supply of scien-tech terminologies in Bahasa is relatively limited compared to that in English while borrowing can be inappropriate or even misleading. This paper intends to explain a number of ways in which endeavors to provide tentative supplies of terminologies through domestication strategy have always been made for scien-tech adoption as well as adaptation to proceed appropriately while enhancing the role of Bahasa in maintaining its function to deal with scien-tech undertaking.

Abstract

The “f” word (fuck) cannot be separated from its taboo nature. This can reveal more deeply about its use which can be found every day that the “f” word is not always used in negative terms and may be useful to enrich the knowledge about the characteristics of the “f” word and to reduce the stigma about it that it has more than negative purpose in expressing emotions. This research would also clarify the reasons for the versatility of the “f” word itself because of the kind that can be used to convey the sense of a specific emotional situation. This study was created because of the shortcomings that the previous study had; Horvat (2016), Jay and Janschewitz (2008), and Pluszczyk (2015) who have not studied the function of the “f” word in detail. So the motivation is created with documentation technique and applying the framework of Shiedlower (1999) and Wang (2013) to further discuss that the “f” word can be flexible in terms of word elements and their function in this study. The results have 6 different types of word element and 4 functions of “f” word swearing
