    Passage2015, 3(2), 64-76 Language Interference of Batak Angkola-Mandailing Language to Indonesian: A Case Study Lita Rizki Fauziah English Language and Literature Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia [email protected] ABSTRACT This research aims to investigate the common characteristics of Indonesian pronunciation deviations made by undergraduate college students from Batak Angkola and to observe the factors that contribute to the interference. The participants are two female Batak Angkola undergraduate students who have been living in Bandung for four years and are active speakers of Bahasa Indonesia and Batak Angkola-Mandailing language. To compare the results, four other participants who come from Jakarta and Bandung, have the same age and gender, and are not active speakers of any Indonesian local languages are also recruited. Based on the pilot test conducted prior to the research, the phonemes that are investigated are /e/, /ə/ and plosives (/b/, /d/, /g/, /k/, /t/, /p/). The data are collected through two types of assessment, which are a reading task, and pronunciation tests in the form of three word lists. By using software Praat, the deviations analysis and a further acoustic phonetic analysis of vowel and consonant duration are conducted. In general, there are two types of pronunciations deviations made by the participants: devoicing and allophonic shift that occurs between /ə/ into /e/ and /e/ into /ə/. The factors that contribute to the interference are speaker bilingualism background, language distant, anxiety, empathy and group solidarity. Keywords: Language interference, pronunciations, acoustic phonetics, Batak Angkola-Mandailing language. 64 Lita Rizki Fauziah Language Interference of Batak Angkola-Mandailing Language to Indonesian: A Case Study INTRODUCTION speakers, for example, are often Indonesia is a complex multilingual called ‘ndeso’ (‘villagers’) or and multicultural nation in which ‘medok’, which have unpleasant several languages coexist and often connotations, when they speak influence each other.

  • The Language Attitudes of Madurese People and the Prospects of Madura Language Akhmad Sofyan Department of Humanities, University of Jember, Jember, Indonesia
    The International Journal of Social Sciences and Humanities Invention 4(9): 3934-3938, 2017 DOI: 10.18535/ijsshi/v4i9.06 ICV 2015:45.28 ISSN: 2349-2031 © 2017, THEIJSSHI Research Article The Language Attitudes of Madurese People and the Prospects of Madura Language Akhmad Sofyan Department of Humanities, University of Jember, Jember, Indonesia Abstract: Due to Madurese language behavior that does not have a positive attitude towards the language, Madurese has changed a lot. Many of the uniqueness of Madura language that is not used in the speech, replaced with the Indonesian language. Recently, in Madura language communication, it is found the use of lexical elements that are not in accordance with the phonological rules of Madura Language. Consequently, in the future, Madura language will increasingly lose its uniqueness as a language, instead it will appear more as a dialect of the Indonesian language. Nowadays, the insecurity of Madura language has begun to appear with the shrinking use of this language in communication. Therefore, if there is no a very serious and planned effort, Madura language will be extinct soon; No longer claimed as language, but will only become one of the dialects of the Indonesian language. Keywords: language change, uniqueness, dialectic, speech level, development. INTRODUCTION enjâ'-iyâ (the same type of ngoko speech in Javanese), Madura language is a local language that is used as a medium engghi-enten (The same type of krama madya in Javanese), of daily communication by Madurese people, both for those and èngghi-bhunten (the same type of krama inggil in who live in Madura Island and small islands around it and Javanese); Which Madurese people call ta’ abhâsa, bhâsa those who live in overseas.

Native and non-native listeners perceptual judgement of english accentedness, intelligibility, and acceptability of indonesian speakers. Lingua Cultura, 13(1), 39-44. https://doi.org/10.21512/lc.v13i1.5362 ABSTRACT This research aimed at investigating the extent of accentedness and intelligibility as well as the acceptability of Indonesian foreign-accented speech perceived by native and non-native listeners, as well as finding their correlation to each other. It used qualitative research. The participant of the research was selected using purposive sampling. The participants were divided into speakers and listeners. There are six speakers and four listeners selected. The four listeners were native and non- native listeners who rated and transcribed six recorded reading of Indonesian speakers by means of SPIN (Speech Perception in Noise) test. The results show that native listeners rate the speech almost the same way as non-native listeners do. The speeches with clear and accurate pronunciation are rated highly accepted and fully intelligible, regardless of having a very strong accent. In contrast, less clear and accurate pronunciations, as well as a very strong accent of the speeches, are rated unacceptable and still reasonably intelligible.

  • 96 Minorities and Minority Policy in Singapore John Clammer
    96 Minorities and Minority Policy in Singapore John Clammer Singapore Institute of Mareagement Introduction . Seen from the outside, Singapore society appears to fall fairly neatly into its three major segments: the Chinese majority, the substantial Malay minority and the smaller but very visible Indian community. And tacked on at the end are what are usually called the "others", in particular the Eurasian community. This picture of Singapore has given rise to what is often called the "CIMO" model - "Chinese-Indian-Malay-Other". But on closer analysis, this picture of the society as comprising three or four major blocs, set against one another (not in a confrontational sense, but as contrasting and mutually exclusive entities), becomes more and more inaccurate. Actually, Singapore is a society of minorities: either minorities within the bigger ethnic blocs and often concealed from view by their being lumped together within a single gross category, or minorities actually distinguished from other communities by religion, culture, origin and even occupation. ' The Cultural Mosaic This can be illustrated by looking at examples of these two types. Within the "Chinese" category one major and dominant group, defined by dialect and place of origin, can be easily recognized - the Hokkiens. But even then numerous sub-groups based upon specific town or country of origin occur within the Hokkien group. The same is true of the other large Chinese speech groups - the Teochews, Cantonese, Hainanese and Hakkas. Each is internally subdivided into numerous smaller groups differentiated by minor linguistic differences, place from which the first migrants came and questions of cultural detail, such as in cooking, religious or marriage observances.

They cannot, as yet, be substituted by AI. During the Professor Emeritus Tan Sri Dato Sri COVID-19 crisis, AI accelerates due to changes and Dr. Dzulkifli Abdul Razak threats to human society. At the same time, the Rector of International Islamic pandemic crisis forces people to stay at home and University Malaysia (IIUM), Malaysia observes physical distancing in order to minimise contact and contain the spread of infection without sacrificing social solidarity. In reality, however, these are behavioural translations that are grounded on the discipline of social sciences to result in a new type of “contactless” society that is taking roots and becoming a new normal as it gets more pervasive socially worldwide. In other words, the pandemic is reinforcing the relevance of social sciences in its application when it comes to dealing with the coronavirus crisis. The presentation will elaborate on this point of view.

  • Of ODOARDOBECCARI Dedication
    1864 1906 1918 Dedicated to the memory of ODOARDOBECCARI Dedication A dedication to ODOARDO BECCARI, the greatest botanist ever to study in Malesia, is long overdue. Although best known as a plant taxonomist, his versatile genius extended far beyond the basic field ofthis branch ofBotany, his wide interest leading him to investigate the laws ofevolution, the interrelations between plants and animals, the connection between vegetation and environ- cultivated ment, plant distribution, the and useful plants of Malesia and many other problems of life. plant But, even if he devoted his studies to plants, in the depth of his mind he was primarily a naturalist, and in his long, lonely and dangerousexplorations in Malesia he was attracted to all aspects ofnature and human life, assembling, besides plants, an incredibly large number of collec- tions and an invaluable wealth ofdrawings and observations in zoology, anthropologyand ethnol- He ogy. was indeed a naturalist, and one of the greatest of his time; but never in his mind were the knowledge and beauty of Nature disjoined, and, as he was a true and complete naturalist, he the time was at same a poet and an artist. His Nelleforestedi Borneo, Viaggi ericerche di un mturalista(1902), excellently translatedinto English (in a somewhatabbreviated form) by Prof. E. GioLiouandrevised and edited by F.H.H. Guillemardas Wanderingsin the great forests of Borneo (1904), is a treasure in tropical botany; it is in fact an unrivalledintroductionto tropical plant lifeand animals, man included. It is a most readable book touching on all sorts of topics and we advise it to be studied by all young people whose ambition it is to devote their life to tropical research.

  • The Malayic-Speaking Orang Laut Dialects and Directions for Research
    KARLWacana ANDERBECK Vol. 14 No., The 2 Malayic-speaking(October 2012): 265–312Orang Laut 265 The Malayic-speaking Orang Laut Dialects and directions for research KARL ANDERBECK Abstract Southeast Asia is home to many distinct groups of sea nomads, some of which are known collectively as Orang (Suku) Laut. Those located between Sumatra and the Malay Peninsula are all Malayic-speaking. Information about their speech is paltry and scattered; while starting points are provided in publications such as Skeat and Blagden (1906), Kähler (1946a, b, 1960), Sopher (1977: 178–180), Kadir et al. (1986), Stokhof (1987), and Collins (1988, 1995), a comprehensive account and description of Malayic Sea Tribe lects has not been provided to date. This study brings together disparate sources, including a bit of original research, to sketch a unified linguistic picture and point the way for further investigation. While much is still unknown, this paper demonstrates relationships within and between individual Sea Tribe varieties and neighbouring canonical Malay lects. It is proposed that Sea Tribe lects can be assigned to four groupings: Kedah, Riau Islands, Duano, and Sekak. Keywords Malay, Malayic, Orang Laut, Suku Laut, Sea Tribes, sea nomads, dialectology, historical linguistics, language vitality, endangerment, Skeat and Blagden, Holle. 1 Introduction Sometime in the tenth century AD, a pair of ships follows the monsoons to the southeast coast of Sumatra. Their desire: to trade for its famed aromatic resins and gold. Threading their way through the numerous straits, the ships’ path is a dangerous one, filled with rocky shoals and lurking raiders. Only one vessel reaches its destination.

It addresses four issues:(1) how specific languages, in all their varieties, are typically used to convey general information through various r;poken and written channels to children in schools, and how they are susceptible to change;(2) how students' language proficiency, as indilriduals and as groups, affect acquisition of other knowledge and skills, and vice versa, in a typical school;(3) options available to language specialists in relating the monolingual, bilingual, or multilingual curriculum to language syllabi, tests, and instructional sequences in language courses; and (4)in cases where choice of language media and language subjects has not ben dictated by educational policy, or is otherwise subject to change, what the most important considerations are in determining the kind of language to be used for each type and level of instruction, in both language and general curriculum.
