  • Navigating the Field: Fieldwork Strategies in Observation in Brunei Darussalam and Indonesia*

    Navigating the Field: Fieldwork Strategies in Observation in Brunei Darussalam and Indonesia*

    Navigating the Field: Fieldwork Strategies in Observation in Brunei Darussalam and Indonesia* Azizi Fakhri and Farah Purwaningrum Abstract The paper examines the kinds of fieldwork strategies in observation that can be mobilised to reduce time and secure access to the field, yet at the same time keeping depth and breadth in ethnographic research. Observation, as a research method, has been one of the ‘core techniques’ profoundly used by sociologists particularly in ‘focused ethnography’ (Knoblauch, 2005). The ‘inside-outside’ (Merton 1972, as cited in Laberee, 2002: 100) and ‘emic-ethic’ dichotomies have always been associated with observation. However, issues like ‘cultural disparity’ (Ezeh, 2003), ‘accessibility’ (Brown-Saracino, 2014); ‘dual-identity’ (Watts, 2011) and ‘local languages’ (Shtaltova and Purwaningrum, 2016) would have limited one’s observation in his/her fieldwork. To date, literature on the issue of time-restriction is under- researched. Thus, the focus of this paper is two-fold; first, it examines how observation and its related fieldwork strategies were used in fieldworks conducted by the authors in two Southeast Asian countries: Tutong, Brunei Darussalam in 2014-2015 and Bekasi, Indonesia in 2010-2011. The paper also examines how observation can be utilised to gain an in-depth understanding in an emic research. Based on our study, we contend that observation holds key importance in an ethnographic research. Although a researcher has an emic standpoint, due to his or her ethnicity or nationality, accessibility is not automatic. As a method, observation needs to be used altogether with other methods, such as audio-visual, drawing being made by respondents, pictures or visuals.

  • Social Variation of Malay Language in Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia: a Study on Accent, Identity and Integration

    Social Variation of Malay Language in Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia: a Study on Accent, Identity and Integration

    GEMA Online Journal of Language Studies 63 Volume 9(1) 2009 Social Variation Of Malay Language In Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia: A Study On Accent, Identity And Integration Idris Aman [email protected] Rosniah Mustaffa [email protected] Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Abstract Language variation is conveyed through its regional or social dimension. In line with that proposition, this paper discusses the social variation of Malay language spoken in Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia focussing on their accents. As part of the Malay language society, the Malays of Kuching have their own accent which is different from other Malay accents or the standard national accent. This paper analyzes the status of national standard accent and non-standard accent among the Malay informants in the city of Kuching. The discussion is based on a sociological urban dialectology research. For the analysis, five phonological variables are chosen. They are open-ended vowels (a), such as kita ‘we’ , close-ended (i), such bilik ‘room’, close-ended (u), such as masuk ‘enter’, initial (r) or (r) 1, such as rumah ‘home’, and final (r) or (r) 2, such as pasar ‘market’ . Issues on accents are studied through four different degree of formality of speech styles, namely reading word list style (WLS), reading passage style (PS), conversational style (CS) and story-telling style (STS). Three social contextual variables - socio-economic status, sex, and age groups of the informants will be considered in the analysis. The use of national standard accent compared with the non-standard accent will be linked to issues of identity and integration.

  • HOW UNIVERSAL IS AGENT-FIRST? EVIDENCE from SYMMETRICAL VOICE LANGUAGES Sonja Riesberg Kurt Malcher Nikolaus P

    HOW UNIVERSAL IS AGENT-FIRST? EVIDENCE from SYMMETRICAL VOICE LANGUAGES Sonja Riesberg Kurt Malcher Nikolaus P

    HOW UNIVERSAL IS AGENT-FIRST? EVIDENCE FROM SYMMETRICAL VOICE LANGUAGES Sonja Riesberg Kurt Malcher Nikolaus P. Himmelmann Universität zu Köln and Universität zu Köln Universität zu Köln The Australian National University Agents have been claimed to be universally more prominent than verbal arguments with other thematic roles. Perhaps the strongest claim in this regard is that agents have a privileged role in language processing, specifically that there is a universal bias for the first unmarked argument in an utterance to be interpreted as an agent. Symmetrical voice languages such as many western Austronesian languages challenge claims about agent prominence in various ways. Inter alia, most of these languages allow for both ‘agent-first’ and ‘undergoer-first’ orders in basic transitive con - structions. We argue, however, that they still provide evidence for a universal ‘agent-first’ princi - ple. Inasmuch as these languages allow for word-order variation beyond the basic set of default patterns, such variation will always result in an agent-first order. Variation options in which un - dergoers are in first position are not attested. The fact that not all transitive constructions are agent-first is due to the fact that there are competing ordering biases, such as the principles dictat - ing that word order follows constituency or the person hierarchy, as also illustrated with Aus - tronesian data.* Keywords : agent prominence, person prominence, word order, symmetrical voice, western Aus - tronesian 1. Introduction. Natural languages show a strong tendency to place agent argu - ments before other verbal arguments, as seen, inter alia, in the strong predominance of word-order types in which S is placed before O (SOV, SVO, and VSO account for more than 80% of the basic word orders attested in the languages of the world; see Dryer 2013).

    Language Use and Attitudes As Indicators of Subjective Vitality: the Iban of Sarawak, Malaysia

    Vol. 15 (2021), pp. 190–218 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc http://hdl.handle.net/10125/24973 Revised Version Received: 1 Dec 2020 Language use and attitudes as indicators of subjective vitality: The Iban of Sarawak, Malaysia Su-Hie Ting Universiti Malaysia Sarawak Andyson Tinggang Universiti Malaysia Sarawak Lilly Metom Universiti Teknologi of MARA The study examined the subjective ethnolinguistic vitality of an Iban community in Sarawak, Malaysia based on their language use and attitudes. A survey of 200 respondents in the Song district was conducted. To determine the objective eth- nolinguistic vitality, a structural analysis was performed on their sociolinguistic backgrounds. The results show the Iban language dominates in family, friend- ship, transactions, religious, employment, and education domains. The language use patterns show functional differentiation into the Iban language as the “low language” and Malay as the “high language”. The respondents have positive at- titudes towards the Iban language. The dimensions of language attitudes that are strongly positive are use of the Iban language, Iban identity, and intergenera- tional transmission of the Iban language. The marginally positive dimensions are instrumental use of the Iban language, social status of Iban speakers, and prestige value of the Iban language. Inferential statistical tests show that language atti- tudes are influenced by education level. However, language attitudes and useof the Iban language are not significantly correlated. By viewing language use and attitudes from the perspective of ethnolinguistic vitality, this study has revealed that a numerically dominant group assumed to be safe from language shift has only medium vitality, based on both objective and subjective evaluation.

    Oral and Written Traditions of Buginese: Interpretation Writing Using the Buginese Language in South Sulawesi

    Volume-23 Issue-4 ORAL AND WRITTEN TRADITIONS OF BUGINESE: INTERPRETATION WRITING USING THE BUGINESE LANGUAGE IN SOUTH SULAWESI 1Muhammad Yusuf, 2Ismail Suardi Wekke Abstract---The uniqueness of the Buginese tribe is in the form of its oral and written traditions that go hand in hand. Oral tradition is supported by the Lontarak Manuscript which consists of Lontarak Pasang, Attoriolong, and Pau-pau ri Kadong. On the other hand, the Buginese society has the Lontarak script, which supports the written tradition. Both of them support the transmission of the knowledge of the Buginese scholars orally and in writing. This study would review the written tradition of Buginese scholars who produce works in the forms of interpretations using the Buginese language. They have many works in bequeathing their knowledge, which is loaded with local characters, including the substance and medium of the language. The embryonic interpretation began with the translation works and rubrics. Its development can be divided based on the characteristics and the period of its emergence. The First Period (1945 – 1960s) was marked by copying interpretations from the results of scholars’ reading. The Second Period (the mid-1960s – 1980s) was marked by the presence of footnotes as needed, translations per word, simple indexes, and complete interpretations with translations and comments. The Third Period (the 1980s – 2000s) started by the use of Indonesian and Arabic languages and the maintenance and development of local interpretations in Buginese, Makassarese, Tator, and Mandar. The scholar adapts this development while maintaining local treasures. Keywords---Tradition, Buginese, Scholar, Interpretation, Lontarak I.
