Language is very important in people daily life because they use language every time in their daily activity to communicate with each other. To communicate means to understand and to express any information, thought, feelings, culture and technology. Thousand of language is spoken in this world one of that is English language, English language important to be learn especially to students because English can improve the quality of social life.

As a foreign language learner it is not possible to speak English with a proper sound. But Indonesian people always try to learn about English language because Indonesian people realize that how important English in their life. One of the problems for a foreign language learner is that how to accurately utter the speech sound of language main purpose of speaking a language is to communicate with others.

  • The Position of Enggano Within Austronesian

Such questions have been largely based on Enggano’s lexicon, which shows little trace of an Austronesian heritage. In this paper, I examine a wider range of evidence and show that Enggano is clearly an Austronesian language of the Malayo-Polynesian (MP) subgroup. This is achieved through the establishment of regular sound correspondences between Enggano and Proto‒Malayo-Polynesian reconstructions in both the bound morphology and lexicon. I conclude by examining the possible relations of Enggano within MP and show that there is no good evidence of innovations shared between Enggano and any other MP language or subgroup. In the absence of such shared innovations, Enggano should be considered one of several primary branches of MP. 1. INTRODUCTION.1 Enggano is an Austronesian language spoken on the southernmost of the Barrier Islands off the west coast of the island of Sumatra in Indo- nesia; its location is marked by an arrow on map 1. The genetic position of Enggano has remained controversial and unresolved to this day. Two proposals regarding the genetic classification of Enggano have been made: 1.

This study aims to describe the meaning of people's names in the Revised: 01/05/2020 Karo Batak community in Juhar District, Karo Regency, which are the terms of giving Accepted: 01/06/2020 names, types of people's names, categorization of meanings of people's names and Available online: 30/06/2020 cultural values in people's names in the Karo Batak community. This research uses the anthropoliguistic approach (cultural liguistic) put forward by Kridalaksana and Beratha which states that cultural linguistics is a study of the position and function of language in a broader social and cultural context which has a role in shaping and maintaining cultural practices and social structures of society. This study also uses the onomastic theory which states that semantics is the study of the relationship between linguistic signs and the things they sign. From the results of the data assessment, it can be concluded that the naming of people in the Batak Karo community in Juhar sub-district is done by means of custom in giving names.

  • Batak Toba Language Structure As Inverted Language
    Running Head: BATAK TOBA LANGUAGE STRUCTURE AS INVERTED LANGUAGE 9 ICLEHI 2018-051 Paska Loren Simanjuntak Batak Toba Language Structure as Inverted Language Paska Loren Simanjuntak Department of Linguistics, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Bulaksumur, Yogyakarta, Indonesia [email protected] Abstract Batak Toba Language (BTL) structure dominantly begins with predicate that is why BTL is called as inverted language. This research is descriptive-qualitative research. The data are taken from Batak’s tales book written by Manguji Nababan titled “Torsatorsa Hombung - Turiturian ni Halak Batak” and from daily conversation. The data which consist of sentences are taken randomly and analysed based on its structure. From the research done, there are found that: (1) BTL uses some markers, like “si” (to mark subject if subject is the name of a person), “do” (to mark predicate), “ma” (to mark predicate); (2) there are two types of structure used in BTL, they are VOS (Verb - Object - Subject) and VSO (Verb - Subject - Object) type. In declarative sentence of BTL, VSO type is used in both active and passive voice but VOS is used in active voice. This research is aimed to describe the structure of BTL and globally help learners to learn basic structure of BTL easily. Keywords: Batak Toba language (BTL), inverted language, language structure Introduction Batak Toba Language (BTL) is one from hundreds local languages in Indonesia. BTL is used by Bataknese in North Sumatra. Bataknese itself has six different local language, they are Batak Toba Language, Batak Karo Language, Batak Mandailing Language, Batak Pakpak Language, Batak Angkola Language and Batak Simalungun Language.

  • Changing Language Loyalty and Identity: an Ethnographic
    Changing Language Loyalty and Identity: An Ethnographic Inquiry of Societal Transformation among the Javanese People in Yogyakarta, Indonesia by Lusia Marliana Nurani A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved August 2015 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Teresa L. McCarty, Co-Chair Mary Eunice Romero-Little, Co-Chair Aya Matsuda ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2015 ABSTRACT This study examines changing language loyalties of the sociopolitically most dominant ethnic group in Indonesia, the Javanese. Although Javanese language has the largest number of speakers, within the last five decades the language is gradually losing its speakers who prioritize the national language, Indonesian. This phenomenon led me to inquire into the extent to which their native language matters for their Javanese identity and how the language planning and policy (LPP) mechanism works to foster Javanese language. To collect data, I conducted a six-month ethnographic research project in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The findings show that Javanese language shift occurs because of strong supports from the government toward Indonesian by emphasizing its role as a symbol to unify all ethnic groups in Indonesia into one nation. Consequently, interference in intergenerational language transmission, a limited scope of Javanese use, decrease language competence, and negative attitude toward Javanese are evident. Although Javanese language is still perceived as the most profound marker of Javanese identity, it is now challenging to maintain it because of its limited role in most domains. The study also indicates that the Javanese people are now strongly inclined to Islam reflected by their piety to Islamic rules such as positive attitude to learn liturgic Arabic, to leave behind Javanese tradition not in line with Islam, and to view religion as a panacea to heal social problems.

  • Geographical Origins of Language Structures∗
    Geographical Origins of Language Structures∗ Oded Galor,y Omer¨ Ozak¨ ,z and Assaf Saridx January 5, 2018 Abstract This research explores the geographical origins of the coevolution of cultural and linguistic traits in the course of human history, relating the geographical roots of long-term orientation to the struc- ture of the future tense, the agricultural determinants of gender bias to the presence of sex-based grammatical gender, and the ecological origins of hierarchical orientation to the existence of polite- ness distinctions. The study advances the hypothesis and establishes empirically that: (i) variations in geographical characteristics that were conducive to higher natural return to agricultural invest- ment contributed to the existing cross-language variations in the structure of the future tense, (ii) the agricultural determinants of gender gap in agricultural productivity fostered the existence of sex-based grammatical gender, and (iii) the ecological origins of hierarchical societies triggered the emergence of politeness distinctions.
