Perpustakaan.Uns.Ac.Id Digilib.Uns.Ac.Id Commit to User 10 perpustakaan.uns.ac.id digilib.uns.ac.id CHAPTER II THEORETICAL REVIEW A. Sociolingusitics According to Hymes (1975), sociolinguistics could be taken to refer to the use of linguistic data and analysis in other disciplines dealing with social life, and conversely, to the use of social data and analysis in linguistics. He also states that sociolinguistics could also be taken to refer to correlation between language and societies and between particular linguistic and social phenomena. Then, sociolinguistics merits our attention just insofar as it signals an effort to change the practice of linguistics and other disciplines because their present practice perpetuates a fragmented, incomplete understanding of humanity. Sociolinguistics, so conceived, is an attempt to rethink received categories and assumptions as to the bases of linguistic work, and as to place of language in human life. Another definition also stated by Downes (1984: 15), “sociolinguistics is that branch of linguistics which studies just those properties of language and languages that require reference to social, including contextual, factors in explanation”. 10 commit to user perpustakaan.uns.ac.id digilib.uns.ac.id 11 In another point, Wardaugh (1986) states that sociolinguistics is the study of the relationship between the language and society with certain people use an appropriate language in order to carry out their daily activities. B. Ethnography of Communication Ethnography of communication is another approach to discourse that not purely linguistics. This approach is based on both anthropology and linguistics (Khader, n.d.). This approach related to both anthropology and linguistics because these two fields share an interest in ―communication‖. According to Schiffrin (as quoted in Khader, n.d.) explains that the main function of human language is communication, since linguistics is the science study of language, it goes that the study of communication is one of the major goals of linguistics. On the other hand, the understanding of communication is important for anthropologists because the way they communicate is part of cultural repertoire for making sense of-and interacting with- the world. Khader (n.d) also adds that ethnography focuses on a wide range of communicative behaviors. It seeks to discover the variety of forms and functions which are available for communication, to establish the way such forms and functions are part of different ways of life and to analyze patterns of communication as part of cultural knowledge and behavior. In the same notion, Bauman and Sherzer (1975) call ethnography of communication as ethnography of commit to user perpustakaan.uns.ac.id digilib.uns.ac.id 12 speaking. They state that it is part of linguistics anthropology, arising out of the traditional anthropological concern with the interrelationship among language, culture and society. The ethnography of speaking centers its attention upon an entirely new order of information, bridging the gap between what is conventionally found in grammars on the one hand and ethnographies on the other. Its subject matter is speaking, the use language in the conduct of social life (Bauman & Sherzer, 1975: 95). Ethnography of communication is the approach of sociolinguistics in which the use of language in general is related to social and cultural values. It concerns with the situations and uses, the patterns and functions, of speaking as an activity in its own right. It is also stated that ethnography of communication is the study of the organization of speaking as an activity in human society, the central concept is the speech community (http://www.gumonounib.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/the- ethnography-of-communication-an-introduction-third-edition-by-muriel-saville- troike.pdf.). B.1 Speech Community Hymes and Gumperz (1972: 53) describe speech as a surrogate for all forms of language, including writing, song, speech-derived whistling, drumming, horn calling, and the like. Speech community is a necessary, primary term in that it postulates the basis of description as a social rather than a linguistics entity. One starts with a social group and considers all the linguistics varieties present in it rather than starting with any one variety. commit to user perpustakaan.uns.ac.id digilib.uns.ac.id 13 Bloomfield (as quoted in Hymes & Gumperz, 1972: 54) defines speech community as a community sharing rules for the conduct and interpretation of speech and rules for the interpretation of at least one linguistics variety. He also states that those who speaking the same language (or same first language or standard language) are defined as members of the same speech community. Khader (n.d.) states that the notion of speech community has always been a central one in linguistics investigation. Lyons in 1970 (as quoted in Khader, n.d.) describes speech community as all the people who use a given language or dialect. Thus Crystal in 1992 (as quoted in Khader, n.d.) explains that speech community is a regionally or socially definable human group, identified by the use of shared spoken language or language variety. Labov in 1972 (as quoted in Khader, n.d.) also states that speech community can not be conceived as a group of speakers who use all the same forms; it is best defined as a group of speakers who share the same norms in regard with language. B,2 Speech Situation Speech situation is situation associated with or marked by the absecnce of speech. Such contexts of situation will often be naturally described as ceremonies, fights, hunts, meals, lovemaking and the like (Hymes & Gumperz, 1972: 56). They also state that in a sociolinguistics description, it is necessary to deal with activities which are bounded or integral. From the standpoint of general social description, commit to user perpustakaan.uns.ac.id digilib.uns.ac.id 14 they may be registered as ceremonies, fishing trips and the like but from particular stand point they may be regarded as political, esthetic, etc., activity. From the sociolinguistics standpoint, they may be regarded as speech situation. Speech situation is not purely communicative; it may be composed of both communicative and other kinds of events. It is not subject to rules of speaking but can be referred to by rules of speaking as contexts (http://www.gumonounib.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/the-ethnography-of communication-an-introduction-third-edition-by-muriel-saville-troike.pdf.). B.3 Speech Event According to Hymes and Gumperz (1972: 56), speech event is aspect of activities which is directly governed by rules or norms for the use of speech. A speech event takes place within a speech situation and consists of one or more speech acts. For example, a joke might be a speech act that is part of conversation (speech event) which takes place at a party (speech situation). It is also possible for a speech act to be the entire speech event which might be the only event in a speech situation (http://www.gumonounib.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/the-ethnography-of- communication-an-introduction-third-edition-by-muriel-saville-troike.pdf.). In another point, Khader (n.d.) also states that speech event is a basic unit of conversation which can be bound by change of scene, or by the exits or entrances of characters, or by the shift in topic, change of concern or focus. He adds that speech commit to user perpustakaan.uns.ac.id digilib.uns.ac.id 15 event can be defined by a unified set of components throughout same purpose of communication, same topic, same participants and same language variety. Another definition from Bauman and Sherzer (1975) find that speech event is the central to ethnography of communication as empirical contexts within which speech activity is situated and acquires meaning. B.4 Speech Act Speech act is the minimal term of the set of speech situation and speech event. It indicates remarks in speech event. It represents a level distinct from the sentence and not identifiable with any single portion of other levels of grammar. The level of speech act mediates immediately between the usual levels of grammar and the rest of a speech event or situation in that it implicates both linguistics forms and social norms (Hymes & Gumperz, 1972: 57) B.5 Components of Speech Hymes and Gumperz analyze components of speech as various components which include in a comprehensive ethnographic description of the act of speaking. It is a descriptive theory which requires some schema of the components of speech acts (1972: 58). At first, there are sixteen or seventeen components that should be distinguished. No rule has been found that requires specification of all commit to user perpustakaan.uns.ac.id digilib.uns.ac.id 16 simultaneously. But ther are always redundancies. According to Miller in 1956 (as quoted by Hymes & Gumperz, 1972: 59) psycholinguistic work has indicated that human memory works best with classifications of the magnitude of seven, plus or minus two. To make the set of components mnemonically convenient at least in English, Hymes uses the letters of the term SPEAKING. The components can be grouped together in relation to the eight letters without great difficulty. Clearly, the use of SPEAKING as a mnemonic code word has nothing to do with the form of an eventual model and theory and here they are (Hymes & Gumperz, 1972: 59): 1. Message form. The form of the message is fundamental. The most common, and most serious, defect in most reports of speaking probably is that the message form and the rules governing it cannot be recaptured. It can be concluded that message form is the form of the message content (how something is said) whether in sequence dialogue, song, order of speech or even in rhythmical beats of music. 2. Message content. One context for distinguishing message form from message content would be: "He prayed, saying '.

  • Street Soccer
    STREET SOCCER Street soccer, pick-up game, sandlot soccer or a kick-about whatever title you give to the format the idea is to give the game of soccer back to the players. Past generations learned to play the game on their own with other kids in the neighborhood or at school in these kid organized games. Today youth sports are overly adult controlled and influenced. It’s difficult today for youngsters to have a pick-up game since the streets have too many cars, the sandlot now has a mini- mall on it and parents are reluctant, with good cause, to let their child go blocks away from home on Saturday to play in a game on his or her own. Street soccer is a way for soccer clubs to give the game back to the players in the community. Once a week, or whatever frequency fits the circumstances the best, a club can have organized spontaneity. The club will provide the fields and supervision. Adults will be on site for safety and general supervision, but otherwise it is all up to the players to organize the games. The adults should NOT coach, cheer, criticize, referee or in any other way involve themselves in the game. The best bet for parents is to drop off their child, go run some errands, and then come back to pick up your child an hour or two latter. The coaches are on site NOT to coach, but to supervise, be on hand for any serious injuries and any severe discipline problems. Additionally the coaches are there to provide the game equipment and to let the players know when each game segment starts and stops.

  • Class 7 (English) 4. Game on Sec. 1 Hop, Skip and Jump
    Class 7 (English) 4. Game On Sec. 1 Hop, Skip and Jump Summary:- This section is about a street game called Hopscotch in English. This game played on the streets is usually a simple playtime activity that children do in their neighbourhood. This game is played all over India and is known by many names such as stapu, ekhat-dukhat, kith-kith, kunte bille, paandi, tokkudu billa and khane. To play the game, the player draws a grid of 8 squares on the ground with numbers from 1 to 8. The player tosses a marker into the first square and hops till the eighth square. Here the player turns around and hops back till the second square to pick up the marker from the first square and steps out. The player again tosses the marker into the second square and the game continues until all the squares have been played. There are certain rules and variations that add to the fun and difficulty level of the game. A player is considered out if the marker does not land in the right square, touches the borders of the grid or if the player touches the borders accidentally. Hopscotch is not only played in India but it is also a popular game with different names across the world. It is known as laylay in Persian, escargot in French and himmel und holle in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. There is another version of this game called Number Hopscotch. Here there is no need of tossing a marker. All they need is to just keep hopping on one foot without stepping on the wrong square.

  • Send North America: Philadelphia Children’S Games
    Send North America: Philadelphia Children’s Games Let Freedom Ring Items Needed: • Large play area with places to hide • Bell Goal: This game resembles team “Hide and Seek.” The goal of the seeking team is to catch and imprison every member of the hiding team. The goal of the hiding team is not to get caught and if caught, to be freed by a teammate into religious freedom. Play: Gather a minimum of eight people and choose teams. Make sure the teams are even and fair. Choose a spot to be the prison with space to hold everyone on a team and easy ways in and out. Designate a similar area to be religious freedom. Establish boundaries for the hiding area, but make sure they are widespread. Have the hiding team also hide their bell in a safe spot. Decide which team will hide and which team will seek first. The seeking team will cover their eyes and wait 1–2 minutes in the prison. While the seeking team is counting or waiting, the hiding team will scatter and hide within the boundaries. When the seeking team is finished counting, they will all run out and search for hiding play- ers. If they find a hidden player they have to catch him or her, but the hiding player is al- lowed to run. To catch the hiding player, they must hold on to the player and say, “1-2-3, you are my prisoner!” When caught, the hiding players must walk to prison. The only way for them to get out is to be rescued by someone else on their team or for a player of the hiding team who has not been sent to prison to ring the bell and yell, “Let freedom ring!” At that point everyone in the prison is then set free and can enter religious freedom.

  • Traditional Games in the Philippines
    Traditional games in the Philippines These are games commonly played by children, usually using native materials or instruments. In the Philippines, due to limited resources of toys of Filipino children, they usually come up on inventing games without the need of anything but the players themselves. With the flexibility of a real human to think and act makes the game more interesting and challenging. Because it is a tradition for Filipinos to play in a bigger and spacious area, most games are usually played outside the house. Some games are played or held during town fiestas in the provinces. These games of Filipino children include the following: Agawan Base There are two teams with two bases. How many players on each team depends on the players. There are two bases which each team claims as their own. The goal is to tag the other team's base without getting tagged. If you're tagged, you're transferred to the other team and must be rescued. There are several variations in which the rules are changed, in some, you can connect other items on the base so you can easily touch the base.There are usually set points, such as first team to tag the other team 5 times wins. You can tag other people who has touched their base before you and are on the opposite team. If they've touched their base after you've touched your base, they can tag you, and you can't tag them. Agawang sulok - catch and own a corner - The it or tagger stands in the middle of the ground.

    Month of May brings long hot days, And now we have our summer holidays. Little home work, easy to be done, Lots of activities full of fun. Dear Parents, “It’s summer time again! Time to relax, unwind and indulge in fun filled activities.” Children are reservoirs of potential which needs to be tapped and channelized in diverse ways. We at MJKPS feel that it is very important to fire their imagination and foster an outlook that helps them explore and discover. Summer vacation is the best and fruitful time for learning and for nurturing creativity. It is the time when you can connect with your child in many ways. The Holidays Homework designed would not only enhance achievements of your child but also help to enhance family relationships. Let’s stress on building healthy relationships with kids, inculcating good habits, reviving old childhood games. It’s a small effort from our end to facilitate as well as fulfill these objectives together: Building Social Skills 1. Educate your child to avoid wasting food. Teach them to take smaller portions instead of over loading their plates with food. 2. Foster gratitude in your child by educating them about the dignity of labour. Provide them with the opportunities to do their chores on their own. 3. Get involved with your child in non-fire cooking at home under your supervision. 4. Encourage them to interview their grandparents/neighbours to develop their social/emotional skills. Spending More Time Together 5. Practice your origami skills and make objects to hang from the ceiling. 6.
