One of the topic that the writer when these utterances are interpreted with concern is in the sub-field of linguistics reference to the context, including the called pragmatics. According to setting, speakers, background knowledge, Wardhaugh & Fuller (2015), pragmatics and so on, this falls into the realm of looks at meanings of utterances in context, pragmatics. and it is often discussed in contrast with the Pragmatics, so this argument goes, is sub-filed called semantics, which is the perceived as being distinct from study of meaning as part of the language sociolinguistics, but there is some overlap, system.

Blum-Kulka (1987), based on interaction that occurs in concrete experimental research in which research situations; this means that from a participants rated the politeness of requests, sociolinguistic approach the language is argues that on-record, conventionally studied in context socio-cultural and indirect requests are considered more situations of use (Suwito, 1985: 5).

Using the methodology of qualitative field research conducted by interviewing local stakeholders and by both participation in, and observation of, local community life, the paper proposes that all of the marriage rituals are necessary to ensure a legitimate relationship between the two parties involved and that procreation is necessary to maintain and transform social relations between and within clans, and to create harmony between the two worlds – of the living and the dead. This proposition is explained throughout the paper by first examining the concepts of marriage and ritual, followed by analysis of the stages of the rites and their meanings. By including some further reflection beyond ethnological boundaries, the paper hopes to contribute to a broader understanding of, and discourse on, the theme of traditions and philosophies in Asia. An endeavour to preserve traditions of marriage and ritual are philosophically necessary for the future prosperity of family and society, social structure and relations, as well as to give a sense of meaning, belonging and identity.

Wurm and Hattori (1981, 1983) distinguish just under 500 languages within the borders of Indonesia, but the information on which their findings are based is heterogeneous, and for some areas nearly nonexistent. The criteria they use to distinguish dialects from languages are not always explicit and in some respects problematic. Particularly for varieties of Malay that are spoken in pockets throughout eastern Indonesia and in discontinuous chains of dialects throughout Sumatra, mainland Malaysia and Kalimantan, it is difficult to ascertain whether they represent different languages, and if so, to establish their boundaries. If different criteria than those of Wurm and Hattori are used for defining a language, the number of languages may increase dramatically.1 Whereas Wurm and Hattori (1983:map 40) classify Lamaholot as one language, spoken in eastern Flores and on the islands east of Flores, Keraf (1978:299) concludes on lexicostatistical grounds that the 33 varieties of Lamaholot he investigated (he did not include the Lamaholot pockets on the islands of Pantar and Alor; see also Stokhof 1975:8-10, 43-4) should be classified as 17 different languages.

It aims to transfer “Lohidu” to be written into English as part of repositioning local language and culture into global culture. Lohidu is an oral traditional song of Gorontalo. It is sung and transferred orally through generation. It is believed that the oral culture is easily faded than written culture. Thus, it is important to transfer the oral culture into written culture in order to preserve the tradition. Nowadays, Gorontalo culture and language begin to extinct. The young generation of Gorontalo tend to love modern culture rather than their traditional culture. The written manuscript of Lohidu can be used later to trace the culture and to analyse the local wisdom in it. The data of the research were collected through recording; audio and video when the singer of Lohidu sang. Furthermore, the recording of Lohidu in Gorontalo language was transferred into English Language by firstly translated it into Indonesian language. In the first year, the output of the research was the book of Lohidu in 3 (three) languages; Gorontalo language, Indonesian language and English language.
