External Innovation in Javanese Vocabulary of Banten Dialect (A Study of Dialect Geography)

<p>This research is aimed to describe and to explain external innovation in the variant categories of word classes found in the usage of Banten dialect of Javanese language at the border of Serang Regency, Banten Province. The research problem formulation in this research was the external innovation and categories found in the usage of the Banten dialect of Javanese language at the border of Serang Regency, Banten Province. This research used a qualitative descriptive of observation method with the techniques of engaging in conversation and contact or mutual conversation with the technique of simultaneous conversation. This technique was then followed by note-taking, both from the interlocutors and language assistants. The research was conducted in eight villages in the districts of Pamarayan, Pontang, Tanara, and Anyer. The sample informants in each village consisted of 2 native speakers of the Banten dialect of Javanese language. The research instrument used for interviewing was a list of 314 questions. The findings of this research indicate that each region exhibited symptoms of external innovation, namely the loanwords from the contact with other language at the border of Serang Regency, such as the loanwords of Sundanese, Javanese, Betawi, and Lampung vocabulary. Variant categories of word classes are also found, such as nouns, adjectives, verbs, directional words, conjunctions, agreement words, and question words. Suggestions that could be considered in this research include creating an etymology dictionary or a dialect dictionary. Those two dictionaries are considered necessary because currently, the influence of other language might lead to convergence, and therefore documentation is needed for further study or the preservation of the language in the future</p>

Sociopragmatic Study of Javanese Oral Discourse in Big City Communities as an Effort to Maintain Indigenous Language

This research delves into the sociopragmatic intricacies of Javanese oral discourse within urban communities, focusing on the role of language in preserving the indigenous Javanese language amidst the pressures of urbanization and language shift. As urbanization accelerates, traditional languages like Javanese face the risk of diminishing usage and cultural significance. This study aims to elucidate how urban Javanese speakers employ their native language in various communicative contexts, examining the sociopragmatic factors that influence language choice and language use patterns. The findings of this research contribute to the fields of sociolinguistics, linguistic anthropology, and language preservation. By shedding light on the sociopragmatic dimensions of language use, the study provides a nuanced understanding of how urban Javanese speakers navigate linguistic diversity and negotiate their cultural identity. This research emphasizes recognizing and supporting indigenous languages within urban settings as communication vehicles and cultural heritage and identity repositories. Ultimately, the study's outcomes can inform language revitalization initiatives and policy-making efforts to foster the enduring presence of Javanese within the rapidly changing landscape of urban communities.

Desain E-modul Mata Kuliah Seni Tembang Macapat bagi Mahasiswa MBKM Lintas Program Studi

Cross-study courses are one of the programs of the Independent Campus Free Learning Curriculum. One of the courses offered across study programs by the Javanese Language and Literature Education Study program is the Macapat Song Arts Course. As a beginner learner in a song course, students will of course experience several problems, namely:1) The tone in the song is different from the tone of modern music (diatonic) which is usually heard and sung. Songs use pentatonic, so adjustments need to be made. 2) There are two types of tunings that students must also master, namely pelog and slendro with a different tone too. 3) Men's and women's voices have different ranges so they require different treatment. 4) the types of cengkok/types of songs in Macapat vary greatly, making it more difficult to memorize. In effort to ensure that students outside the Javanese Language and Literature Education study program need special treatment so that it is easier for them to take courses. Researchers in this case will design an Electronic Module for the Song Arts Course so that it can help students outside the Java study program learn Macapat songs. This research using the R&D Level 1 model, namely researching, producing designs, but not testing and producing them. Validation carried out by Javanese language material experts with a score of 3.7 and validation by design experts received a score of 3.78.

Assessing code readability in Python programming courses using eye‐tracking

AbstractCode readability models are typically based on the code's structural and textual features, considering code readability as an objective category. However, readability is inherently subjective and dependent on the knowledge and experience of the reader analyzing the code. This paper assesses the readability of Python code statements commonly used in undergraduate programming courses. Our readability model is based on tracking the reader's eye movement during the while‐read phase. It uses machine learning (ML) techniques and relies on a novel set of features—observational features—that capture how the readers read the code. We experimented by tracking the eye movement of 90 undergraduate students while assessing the readability of 48 Python code snippets. We trained an ML model that predicts readability based on the collected observational data and the code snippet's structural and textual features. In our experiments, the XGBoost classifier trained using observational features exclusively achieved the best results (0.85 F‐measure). Using correlation analysis, we identified Python statements most affecting readability for undergraduate students and proposed implications for teaching Python programming. In line with findings for Java language, we found that constructs related to the code's size and complexity hurt the code's readability. Numerous comments also hindered readability, potentially due to their association with less readable code. Some Python‐specific statements (list comprehension, lambda function, and dictionary comprehension) harmed code readability, even though they were part of the curriculum. Tracking students' gaze indicated some additional factors, most notably nonlinearity introduced by if, for, while, try, and function call statements.

The Family Language Policy of Javanese Multilingual Families

Javanese is one of the regional languages with a relatively large number of speakers, around 68 million. This significant number of speakers is essential for the Javanese language to survive. Even so, the popularity of the Javanese language tends to decrease, especially among young people. This decline is influenced by various factors. One of them is that young families no longer introduce Javanese as the primary means of communication within the family. This study is interested in identifying the language attitudes of parents in Javanese families who are bilingual towards Indonesian, English, and Javanese. Furthermore, this study aims to analyze how the language policy is implemented in the family. This study combines quantitative and qualitative approaches using data collection techniques through questionnaires, interviews, and participatory observation. Data analysis shows that parents have positive language attitudes towards Indonesian and English. However, their language attitude towards Javanese is not as positive as Indonesian and English. This language attitude is reflected in the implementation of language policies in families where parents prefer to apply mixed language policies.

TOPONIM WILAYAH KOTA PEKANBARU: ETNISITAS, PENGGUNAAN BAHASA, DAN CAMPUR KODE

Urban areas have developed rapidly in terms of demography and culture. This is because urban areas attract people who are searching for higher income and a better life than those in rural areas. Demographical and cultural development in urban areas often affects local culture. One example can be found in Pekanbaru City, Riau Province, Indonesia. The Riau Malays, the city’s native ethnic group, no longer dominates the city’s demographical landscape. In fact, the Minangkabaus as a migrant ethnic group actually dominate Pekanbaru City. However, there is still a limited body of documentation of and research on the language and culture in Pekanbaru City. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the toponyms of various areas in Pekanbaru City. This research is also intended to reveal the meaning of less popular local toponyms to provide valuable information for the general public. This research used the qualitative method with the toponymic approach. Data consist of all sub-district names in Pekanbaru City. Analysis was conducted to classify those names based on their basic toponymy, focusing on their lexico-semantic aspects. The meaning of those toponyms was obtained from interviews with selected respondents. In addition, this study also connects toponymy with various sociolinguistic aspects, especially ethnicity, language use, and code-mixing. Results show that most local toponyms in Pekanbaru City refer to certain geographical conditions, trees, hopes, and rivers. Furthermore, most local toponyms contain roots which originated from Indonesian, Riau Malay, and Javanese languages. In terms of ethnicity, Pekanbaru City is dominated by the Minangkabaus, Riau Malays, and Javanese. The dominant languages in Pekanbaru City are Indonesian, Minang, and Riau Malay. Code- mixing in local toponyms mostly occur between Indonesian and Javanese. However, not all sub-district names have identifiable toponymic meaning, so further research is needed to complement the existing results.
