  • The Importance of Teaching Slang in the Class of Indonesian As a Second Language
    Prosiding The 4th International Conference on Indonesian Studies: “Unity, Diversity and Future” THE IMPORTANCE OF TEACHING SLANG IN THE CLASS OF INDONESIAN AS A SECOND LANGUAGE Laura Zarbaliyeva, M.H. Department of Foreign Languages, Azerbaijan University of Languages [email protected] Abstract Slang is a controversial issue in teaching a second language since some teachers consider slang as a lower level of language while the others argue of its being an integral part of everyday language. Language purists choose not to use slang in the classroom because they associate it with vulgarity which would not be appropriate for academic environment. On the other hand, those who approve teaching slang believe that it is a key to a certain language speaking world. Indonesian slang that differs significantly from the standard language in both vocabulary and grammatical structure is used not only in everyday conversation but it also penetrated into popular media these days. This is the reason why an Indonesian language learner who has been taught only the proper version of the language faces difficulties in communicating with a native speaker or in fully understanding newspaper articles and TV programs. This paper suggests introducing slang in classes of Indonesian as a second language to increase confidence in students to interact actively with native speakers which can be realized via song lyrics, movies and role plays. Keywords: Indonesian as a second language, slang, second language teaching A. Introduction Based on the experience of teaching Indonesian as a second language for several years, the author supports teaching slang in the classroom for many reasons.

  • The Cultural Traffic of Classic Indonesian Exploitation Cinema
    The Cultural Traffic of Classic Indonesian Exploitation Cinema Ekky Imanjaya Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of Art, Media and American Studies December 2016 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. 1 Abstract Classic Indonesian exploitation films (originally produced, distributed, and exhibited in the New Order’s Indonesia from 1979 to 1995) are commonly negligible in both national and transnational cinema contexts, in the discourses of film criticism, journalism, and studies. Nonetheless, in the 2000s, there has been a global interest in re-circulating and consuming this kind of films. The films are internationally considered as “cult movies” and celebrated by global fans. This thesis will focus on the cultural traffic of the films, from late 1970s to early 2010s, from Indonesia to other countries. By analyzing the global flows of the films I will argue that despite the marginal status of the films, classic Indonesian exploitation films become the center of a taste battle among a variety of interest groups and agencies. The process will include challenging the official history of Indonesian cinema by investigating the framework of cultural traffic as well as politics of taste, and highlighting the significance of exploitation and B-films, paving the way into some findings that recommend accommodating the movies in serious discourses on cinema, nationally and globally.

(2021). Language identities of multilingual college English learners in Indonesia. Eurasian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 7(1), 316–337. Doi: 10.32601/ejal.911403 Abstract College learners with their youthfulness are in a crucial phase of transition, which is often associated with a search of identity. Since language is a fluid identity marker, an investigation of language use to represent identity is challenging, especially when the speakers are multilingual. This article explores the linguistic identities of English college learners in Indonesia and offers an approach of English instruction in its tertiary education context which can accommodate their language identity representation. Through observation, a survey of 173 students of the English Literature Study Program, and in-depth interview with 13 representatives selected by purposive convenience sampling technique, this study found that other than identities related to their language inheritance, their closeness to English as their major of study and to digital media bring out other forms of identity as English Department students, youth, and millennial generation. However, this variety confirms monocultural rather than multicultural identity since they are deeply rooted in their local culture.

  • Indonesian Slang: Colloquial Indonesian at Work Pdf, Epub, Ebook
    INDONESIAN SLANG: COLLOQUIAL INDONESIAN AT WORK PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Christopher Torchia | 288 pages | 10 Sep 2011 | Tuttle Publishing | 9780804842075 | English | Boston, United States Indonesian Slang - Blow Job Tutorial | Qindas Nanda In Yogyakarta, where I am — located in the centre of Java and the traditional heartland of Javanese culture — Javanese is commonly spoken, partly as a reflection of cultural pride. A food vendor who pushes his wooden cart along my street every morning selling soto ayam spicy chicken soup often breaks into Javanese, making our conversations difficult for me to follow. He recently asked me something three times before I understood. The question, when I got it, revealed a pride in his heritage: had I yet seen wayang kulit shadow puppet play , the quintessentially Javanese cultural performance? The country has close to the freest speech in Asia, and young Indonesians are fanatical fans of Twitter, Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram, using the platforms to evolve their own language with new and borrowed words. As Andini and I scrolled through Indonesian Twitter feeds during class one day, road-bumps of slang brought me to abrupt and frequent halts. Yet standard Indonesian — Bahasa Indonesia baku — remains the best way I have to communicate here, and for me, the language serves its original purpose. When someone speaks to me in a way I easily understand, I read significance into it, knowing they are likely tailoring it for me, adapting themselves, breaking things down as a conscious act of inclusion. This happened when I took a motorbike taxi home from class. I understood my young driver near-perfectly.

  • TITOLO Anna and the King REGIA Andy Tennant INTERPRETI Jodie Foster, Yun-Fat Chow, Ling Bai, Tom Felton, Keith Chin, Syed Alwi GENERE Romantico DURATA 140 Min
    TITOLO Anna and the King REGIA Andy Tennant INTERPRETI Jodie Foster, Yun-Fat Chow, Ling Bai, Tom Felton, Keith Chin, Syed Alwi GENERE Romantico DURATA 140 min. - Colore PRODUZIONE USA - 1999 Nel 1862 Anna Leonowens, insegnante inglese da poco vedova, arriva nel Siam insieme al figlio adolescente. A Bangkok accetta di fare da precettrice ai 58 figli di re Mongkut, alla moglie ufficiale, alle concubine. “Quando una donna che ha cosi tanto da dire tace, il suo silenzio puo' essere assordante” Siamo in piena epoca vittoriana: l'insegnante inglese Anna Leonowens (il premio Oscar Jodie Foster, vista di recente in "Contact") viene chiamata dal re del Siam Mongkut (Chow Yun Fat, visto in "The corruptor" e "Costretti ad uccidere") ad istruire i suoi cinquantotto figli. Anna sa ben poco di questo sovrano, a parte il fatto che il popolo lo venera come un dio; giunta in Siam con una serie di preconcetti sul mondo orientale, si dovrà scontrare con Mongkut, che disapprova l'occidente e soprattutto questa impertinente inglese. Ma con il passare del tempo Anna e il Re cominciano a trovare diversi punti in comune. Lei capisce che Mongkut è un uomo di grandi ideali che agisce solo nell'interesse del suo paese affinché il Siam possa trovare la giusta collocazione nel mondo moderno, ed il re non fatica a capire che Anna brilla di una luce che illumina non solo lui e la sua famiglia, ma l'intera nazione. Girato in Malesia (il Governo tailandese non ha concesso alla produzione di girare entro i confini) dal regista Andy Tennant (autore di "La leggenda di un amore: Cinderella") il film è tratto da una storia vera ed è stato fatto con dovizia di particolari.

And a lot of people are quarantined. A lot of people on their ranches and in the mountains Ever After the Internet's not great. So I was just kinda like, what could I think of? And it was just like, I love Dr. I just think the dude is hysterical. And so Audio Up reached out and he was like, now I got an idea on how to even flip it even better. I'm going to write it right now. It has to have been your decision to have been in the business, even at a young, young age. White initially conceived Ever Ever After as a TV show, and Ever After shot a pilot for it, but had to rethink everything once the pandemic hit. A producer on the project suggested it be redeveloped as a podcast, and the result has been more fruitful conversations than White had initially imagined. And a lot of people like to create clickbait headlines. Instead, White and his fellow former child stars first give credit to the hard, complicated work they did at the beginning of their careers. So I don't think people realize just how many hours we put in. Ever After being on a set, or being Ever After front of the camera, behind the camera, on a promotions trail We're all so used to that.

  • 'Towards a History, and an Understanding of Indonesian Slang'
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Prometheus-Academic Collections Towards a history, and an understanding of Indonesian slang John BOWDEN Jakarta Field Station Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology and Institute for the Languages and Cultures of Asia and Africa Tokyo University of Foreign Studies In this paper, I sketch out a brief history of Indonesian slang and make some comparisons with slang in some other languages in order to locate Indonesian slang in its wider multilingual context. By its nature, slang is often ephemeral and it is usually confined to spoken genres of language. Thus, it can be difficult to find records of older slang, and any history of slang is certain to be incomplete. Slang is often confined to particular subgroups within a society and it is often used to conceal its meaning from members of other subgroups in society. It is no coincidence that some of the first dictionaries of, for example, English slang were collections of the language of criminals and sailors. Indonesian slang is no different, so in this paper I will look at the slang of two subgroups in particular: preman (or gangsters) and gay men. 1. Introduction – what is slang? Slang is a phenomenon that is found in many languages, and it is a phenomenon that people in contemporary Indonesia recognise very well too. As in many places, some Indonesians express angst at the ‘withering away of linguistic standards’ that the use of slang entails for them. University student Novi A, for example is quoted in the Jakarta Post of 11 September 2009 as saying that using slang was detrimental to the national language.
