Introduction The subgrouping of languages in Indonesia, including in Bima Regency West Nusa Tenggara, has not yet been entirely done. However, some isolects in the area have been determined as languages or dialects. Budasi's study, which involved six isolects; Taloweri, Mbojo, Bima, Sanggar and Kolo, for example, showed that among them, only Bima, Sanggar, and Kolo isolects were quantitatively determined as different languages of the same family based on Sawadesh' language classification (Budasi, Indriani, & Sudirman, 2017). Mbojo and Taloweri were determined as two different dialects of the Bima language. However, Sambori and Teta isolects were not involved in the study. The reason is that in the previous study, no information about their existence was found. Based on the researchers' preliminary observation in their study in 2019, Budasi and Indrani found that: 1) most people, including language teachers in Bima regency, said that Sambori and Teta isolects are two different languages spoken by their native speakers Lambitu District Bima Province. Their mutual intelligibility between Kolo, Sanggar, and bima Language speakers was so low. It means that they do not understand when they communicate with the speakers of the two dialects. Further, speakers of Sambori and Teta isolects were found to have high mutual intelligibility. So many of their vocabularies are mostly found the same and similar. So far, a study about Teta isollect and its kinship relation to Sambori Isolects has not been done. However, some studies connected to Sambori have been done by some researchers. Among others were Arafiq (2019), Rosadi and Ermanto (2018), and Yustra et al. (2016). There are still different opinions among the experts toward the status of the Sambory language classification. Arafiq (2019), for example, mentions that status of Sambori is as a language spoken in Lambitu Bima regency. This study focused on identifying the syntactic properties and distribution of personal pronouns in the language. In the conclusion section of their study, Yusra, Lestari, Ahmadi, Asyhar, and Soemerep (2016) stated that Sambori was the Bima language dialect. This language classification was done based on their lexicostatistic calculation. That is, Sambori and Bima language reached 61% dissimilarity in terms of their cognates. It means that their similarity is 39%. Based on language classification suggested by Swadesh (1972) in Aditi (2016), this figure exists between 36% and 81%. According to Swadesh, if two isolects' similarity is placed in this range (36% to 81%), the two's status should be two different languages of the same family. In other words, not as two dialects of the same language. 77 Copyright © 2020 ACADEMIA INDUSTRY NETWORKS. All rights reserved. Journal of Social Science Advanced Research eISSN: 2735-1874 | Vol. 1, No. 2, 76-86, 2020 http://myjms.mohe.gov.my/index.php/jossar On the other hand, a study by Rosadi, and Ermanto (2018) concludes that Sabori is a Bima language dialect. Sambori was said to possess language variations compared to the Bima language. The other study was done by Yustra et al. (2016). This study focuses on phonological, morphological, syntactical, and sociolinguistic aspects of the Sambori language. They found that the language and its cultures are in an endangered situation due to internal factors, such as mixed marriage and migration, and external factors, such as economic, demographic, and political pressures). They also did a lexicostatistical analysis between Sambori and Bima language. They declared that the Sambori language is a dialect of the Bima (61.2% dissimilarity) or 38,8 similarity). Based on Swadesh's language classification, 38.8% cognate similarity should be in the different language category (language family). All of the findings mentioned above can be summarized that the status of the language classification of Sambori isolect is not yet clear, and no study has been done about Teta Isolects and its language classification between Sambori and Teta isolects. Thus the objectives of this study are to 1) describe the status of Sambori and Teta language classification, 2) describe their uniting and differentiating phonological features, and 3) describe their uniting and differentiating lexical features. 2. Literature Review Historical comparative linguistics (HCL) is the linguistics branch that studies the two isolects' status in their language classification. According to Bynon (1979) and Fernandez (1996), the branch of linguistics which can be used to overcome the matter is historical-comparative linguistics (HCL). Concerning this, Bloomfield (1981) mentioned that the comparative method applied in doing kinship relatedness of the isolects being compared. According to Anceaux (1964) in Fernandes (1996), HCL is a study concerned with word retention. Experts in HCL normally use 200 Swadesh’ word list (the result of revision by Blush (1980) to be taken in the isolects being compared. These basic words have universal characteristics that are not easy to change. The research using the quantitative approach usually applies to lexicostatistics. It is a technique in subgrouping languages that tend to statistically examine lexicons, then determine the subgrouping language based on the cognate percentage of isolect being compared. The analysis in this approach uses basic words that are not easy to change: the ones related to the human body, pronounce, emotion and feeling, weather and nature, number, and words related to household tools. In this approach, the linguistic evidence is used as the basis for subgrouping isolects quantitatively. The assumption underlies the number of vocabularies in one language that can be differentiated into two big groups. The loan word is not considered in this approach. The next step is to count the separating period of two isolects or languages. By applying glottochronological statistics (Keraf, 1984). The assumption that based that calculation is a set of words with universal characteristics and remains constant along the years around (Dyen, 1975). 78 Copyright © 2020 ACADEMIA INDUSTRY NETWORKS.

Some experts believe that it has been very often happened that by using basic words inherited simultaneously from their proto-language, the subgrouping process often undergoes difficulties due to the number of similarities in meaning among languages being compared. A newer method, named the innovation method, was created to overcome the difficulties that may

  • The Syntax of Personal Pronouns in the Bima Language
    International Linguistics Research; Vol. 3, No. 2; 2020 ISSN 2576-2974 E-ISSN 2576-2982 https://doi.org/10.30560/ilr.v3n2p13 The Syntax of Personal Pronouns in the Bima Language Arafiq1 1 English Department, Mataram University, Mataram, Lombok, Indonesia Correspondence: Arafiq, English Department, Mataram University, Mataram, Lombok, Indonesia. E-mail: arafiq unram.ac.id Received: May 20, 2020; Accepted: June 1, 2020; Published: June 1, 2020 Abstract This article aims at describing the syntactic properties and distributions of Personal Pronouns in the Bima Language, a language spoken by approximately 9000 people who inhabit the eastern part of Sumbawa Island. This number of speakers does not include those who live in Reo Pota Manggarai, East Nusa Tenggara. The Bima Language is grouped into Sumba-Bima Subgroup of Central Malayo-Polynesian (CMP) branch of Austronesian Language. Data in this study are the linguistic units from morphems level to clausal level. The data were taken from conversations and monologues recorded in the real situations in which the Bima Language is used. The focus of this paper is to describe the personal pronoun system of the Bima Language, describing types of personal pronouns and their syntactic properties and distributions. Based on the analysis, the Bima Language has a set of morphologically independent personal pronouns (full pronouns) and a set of clitics. Both sets of personal pronouns show the same syntactic properties and distributions. These two sets of personal pronouns are able to occur as independent clausal arguments of both intransitive and transitive constructions. In addition to their distributions, these two sets of personal pronouns can occur with numerals, relatives, and NPs.

  • UNCORRECTED PROOFS © JOHN BENJAMINS PUBLISHING COMPANY 1St Proofs 224 Michael Cysouw
    Chapter 7 A typology of honorific uses of clusivity Michael Cysouw Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology In many languages, pronouns are used with special meanings in honorific contexts. The most widespread phenomenon cross-linguistically is the usage of a plural pronoun instead of a singular to mark respect. In this chapter, I will investigate the possibility of using clusivity in honorific contexts. This is a rare phenomenon, but a thorough investigation has resulted in a reasonably diverse set of examples, taken from languages all over the world. It turns out that there are many different honorific contexts in which an inclusive or exclusive pronoun can be used. The most commonly attested variant is the usage of an inclusive pronoun with a po- lite connotation, indicating social distance. Keywords: politeness, respect, syncretism, clusivity 1. Introduction In his study of the cross-linguistic variation of honorific reference, Head (1978: 178) claims that inclusive reference, when used honorifically, indicates less social dis- tance. However, he claims this on the basis of only two cases. In this chapter, a sur- vey will be presented of a large set of languages, in which an inclusive or exclusive marker is used in an honorific sense. It turns out that Head’s claim is not accurate. In contrast, it appears that inclusive marking is in many cases a sign of greater so- cial distance, although the variability of the possible honorific usages is larger than might have been expected. There are also cases in which an inclusive is used in an impolite fashion or cases in which an exclusive is used in a polite fashion.

Abstract This study examines the language maintenance model for a local language in another language community, specifically Sumbawanese language maintenance in the Balinese community. This study encompasses 1) the Sumbawanese speakers’ competence of Sumbawanese language, 2) Sumbawanese language use patterns in the Balinese community, 3) language attitudes of Sumbawanese speakers toward their language. This study focuses on Denpasar's several locations, where most of the language interaction occurred, and data were collected through observation, interviews, and questionnaires. The data were analyzed using a software program, namely an excel chart data series. The research subjects were both older and younger Sumbawanese speakers. An analysis of language attitudes also considered the roles of language choice and language change in maintaining cultural diversity and ethnic identity, which will psychologically provide a feeling of assurance in personal linguistic competence. With Sumbawanese speakers, the context of communicating in Balinese society will be thoroughly considered. The findings show that speakers of Sumbawa language have good competence towards Sumbawa language, rarely use Sumbawa language, and have more positive than negative attitudes towards their language.
