Consonant Changes in Loanwords Borrowed from Indonesian into Dialects of Acehnese

Acehnese, like other regional languages throughout Indonesia, is in constant and intense contact with the Indonesian standard language, bahasa Indonesia. Not surprisingly, a great many Indonesian loanwords are flooding into Acehnese. Some interesting sound changes have affected various aspects pf the consonants, vowels, phonotactics, and stress, and so forth. The sound changes affecting the vowels and, to a lesser extent, the consonants of Indonesian loanwords, appear in most unusual ways. This paper explores this topic in detail, drawing on data from a range of sources. We compiled a list of 285 loanwords, which we recorded when read by native speakers of each of four main Acehnese dialects. The Acehnese language consultants to this study were all either academics or postgraduate students in Aceh, and hence fluent bilingual speakers of both Acehnese and Indonesian. We compared phonemic transcriptions of these recordings with their Indonesian correspondences. This paper is the second such paper emerging from this investigation, where the first focused on the behaviour of the vowels. As such, this paper concerns the behaviour of the consonants in Indonesian loanwords migrating into Acehnese dialects. The study evidences the fact that consonant changes do not always constitute a simple case of phonological assimilation, as usually occurs in loanword phonology. Consequently, some consonant changes during the migration of loanwords expose the phenomenon of loanwords becoming an expression of Acehnese identity.

The politeness strategy was utilized when the participants wanted to express their view to classmates or lecturers. The students performed the strategy because they wanted to support their beliefs or statements unswervingly. Male students used more positive politeness and expresses ideas more directly than female students. ConclusionThe study concluded that both male and female students at the Department of English Language Education, UIN Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh exercised all varieties of politeness strategies. The most applied approaches were positive politeness strategy, followed by the negative politeness strategy, off-record and eventually bald on record as the least frequent politeness strategy.

EXPLORING TEACHER’S AND STUDENTS’ BELIEFS CONCERNING HIGHER ORDER THINKING IN MATHEMATICS


 
 
 
 Teacher beliefs play a fundamental role in mathematics teaching and learning, as they will ultimately influence the teacher's classroom practices. Student beliefs on a subject matter also hold equal importance as they will be reflected in how the students approach the learning and related issues to the subject. The importance of research on teachers' beliefs stems from the possible relationship between teacher beliefs and student beliefs. This descriptive quantitative study aimed to measure the degree of conformity between teacher and student beliefs concerning mathematics related to Higher Order Thinking (HOT) and Lower Order Thinking (LOT). The population was all Year 9 students in Aceh, Indonesia, and the samples were 1135 Year 9 students and 46 Year 9 mathematics teachers from 25 schools selected through stratified random sampling. Data collection was obtained through teacher and student questionnaires, and data were analyzed descriptively by SPSS 20. The finding of this study revealed that teacher beliefs concerning mathematics related to HOT were highly positive (83%). While the percentage of students who hold highly positive beliefs concerning mathematics related to HOT was just over 50%, indicating the discrepancy between teacher and student beliefs. However, regarding the beliefs concerning mathematics related to LOT, teacher and student beliefs conformed; they had somewhat positive beliefs (68% and 71.30%, respectively). This study implies that teachers need to promote HOTS in mathematics teaching at schools to foster students’ positive beliefs toward HOT.
 
 
 

THE INSPECTION OF LABORIOUS MECHANICAL ASPECTS FOR EFL READERS
