The Perception of Acehnese on Hadih Maja in the Formation of Children’s Character Values in Aceh

Abstract

The process of character building which emphasizes the use of the expression hadih maja is intended to instill in the younger generation the ability to master the Indatu language which is currently being lost with time and even today it is still declining. As a result, we want to find out how the Acehnese people perceive hadih maja in the character building process for children throughout the city of Banda Aceh. To obtain findings, researchers used a qualitative approach that is descriptive. From the author's presentation of these findings, it can be seen that the people of Aceh have not lived up to the researchers' expectations, on average the community has never disclosed Hadih Maja in coaching. In the process of forming student character, unfortunately, many people don't even recognize Hadih Maja. then on this basis it must be learned by the community, especially parents so that this language really does not disappear with time.
