Multibahasa di Dunia Global: Dampak Sosial dari Penggunaan Beberapa Bahasa

2025-12-23T02:42:21+00:00

Penggunaan bahasa dalam kehidupan sehari-hari memiliki peranan penting dalam membentuk pola interaksi sosial antarmanusia. Kajian sosiolinguistik memandang bahasa sebagai fenomena sosial yang tidak dapat dipisahkan dari masyarakat penuturnya. Salah satu fenomena kebahasaan yang berkembang pesat di era globalisasi adalah multibahasa, yaitu penggunaan lebih dari satu bahasa dalam aktivitas komunikasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan fenomena multibahasa di dunia global serta mengkaji dampak sosial yang ditimbulkan akibat penggunaan beberapa bahasa. Metode yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data berupa kajian pustaka, simak bebas libat cakap, dan teknik catat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan multibahasa memberikan dampak sosial yang beragam, baik positif maupun negatif. Multibahasa berperan penting dalam memperlancar interaksi lintas budaya, namun juga berpotensi menimbulkan permasalahan kebahasaan apabila tidak digunakan secara bijaksana.

Klasifikasi Bunyi Bahasa Bali

2025-12-23T11:48:35+00:00

Bahasa merupakan sistem tanda bunyi yang kompleks, tersusun atas aturan tertentu yang disepakati oleh penuturnya, serta berfungsi tidak hanya sebagai alat komunikasi, tetapi juga sebagai simbol identitas dan warisan budaya. Artikel ini menelaah fonetik dan fonologi bahasa Bali sebagai salah satu bahasa daerah di Indonesia yang hingga kini masih dipertahankan di tengah arus globalisasi. Penelitian difokuskan pada klasifikasi bunyi vokal, diftong, dan konsonan bahasa Bali serta keterkaitannya dengan aspek sosial-budaya masyarakat penuturnya. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif dengan observasi alami terhadap tuturan keluarga dan masyarakat Bali, disertai refleksi diri peneliti sebagai bagian dari pengalaman langsung dalam penggunaan bahasa. Analisis fonetik dilakukan untuk memahami aspek fisik produksi bunyi, sementara analisis fonologi digunakan untuk melihat fungsi bunyi dalam membedakan makna dan keteraturannya dalam sistem bahasa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa bahasa Bali memiliki inventaris vokal yang cukup kaya, yaitu terdiri dari 12 vokal dengan distribusi yang fleksibel pada posisi awal, tengah, dan akhir kata. Keberadaan vokal [e] dan [ɛ], misalnya, berperan penting dalam membedakan makna leksikal. Selain itu, ditemukan pula diftong yang terbagi menjadi tiga diftong naik dan delapan diftong turun. Diftong ini tidak hanya memperkaya struktur suku kata, tetapi juga memberikan variasi prosodi dalam tuturan seharihari. Sistem konsonan bahasa Bali berjumlah sekitar 20 fonem, dengan sebaran di hampir semua titik artikulasi, seperti bilabial, alveolar, palatal, velar, hingga laringal. Konsonan seperti [ɲ] dan [ŋ] menandai ciri khas Austronesia, sedangkan bunyi seperti [f], [v], [z], dan [ʃ] relatif jarang muncul, menunjukkan keterbatasan serapan dalam kosakata dasar. Distribusi vokal, diftong, dan konsonan tersebut menunjukkan keteraturan fonologis yang kuat sekaligus berfungsi sebagai pembeda makna dalam bahasa Bali. Lebih jauh, penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa sistem bunyi bahasa Bali tidak dapat dilepaskan dari konteks sosial dan budaya masyarakat penuturnya. Kehadiran tingkatan bahasa (alus, madya, kasar) menunjukkan bahwa pilihan bunyi dalam kosakata tidak hanya bersifat linguistik, melainkan juga sarat dengan makna sosial, etika, serta hierarki dalam komunikasi. Fenomena ini memperlihatkan bahwa bahasa Bali bukan hanya sistem fonologis yang kompleks, tetapi juga instrumen budaya yang menjaga nilai sopan santun dan identitas kolektif masyarakat Bali. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa kekayaan fonetik dan fonologis bahasa Bali menjadi bukti vitalitasnya sebagai bahasa daerah yang masih hidup dan berkembang. Keberagaman bunyi tidak hanya memperkaya sistem linguistik, tetapi juga memperkokoh kedudukan bahasa Bali sebagai warisan budaya yang harus dilestarikan. Di tengah tantangan globalisasi, penggunaan bahasa Bali dalam kehidupan sehari-hari menjadi strategi utama dalam menjaga eksistensinya. Oleh karena itu, upaya dokumentasi, penelitian, serta kebijakan pendidikan dan budaya yang mendukung pelestarian bahasa Bali sangat diperlukan agar bahasa ini tetap bertahan dan diwariskan kepada generasi berikutnya

2025-12-23T12:02:13+00:00

Penelitian ini mengkaji pemanfaatan metafora konseptual dalam lirik lagu Garam dan Madu (Sakit Dadaku) karya Tenxi, Naykilla, dan Jemsii melalui perspektif semantik kognitif. Analisis difokuskan pada relasi antara domain sumber dan domain sasaran untuk menjelaskan bagaimana pengalaman emosional dipahami serta diungkapkan melalui bahasa metaforis. Metode yang diterapkan adalah kualitatif deskriptif dengan mengacu pada teori metafora konseptual Lakoff dan Johnson. Data berupa penggalan lirik dipilih dan dianalisis untuk mengidentifikasi metafora struktural, ontologis, dan orientasional. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa metafora seperti cinta sebagai rasa, rasa sakit sebagai beban fisik, dan perpisahan sebagai kematian mendominasi lirik lagu tersebut. Metafora-metafora ini memperlihatkan bagaimana pengalaman emosional dikonstruksi melalui citra sensorik, khususnya rasa asin dan manis, sebagai representasi kognitif dari dinamika cinta dan kehilangan.

A Study on Translation Shift in English into Indonesian in the Movie Entitled Soul by Disney

2025-12-23T12:20:26+00:00

This research aims to identify shifts and the most common types found in the Englishto-Indonesian subtitles of Soul by Disney. The qualitative research method was applied in this study. After discovering the data, the researcher found that there are three types of translation shifts that are found in the Soul by Disney movie. The types of shifts found are level shift, structure and intra-system shift as shown in 9 data. The level shift shows 2 data. A level shift happens when an SL (source language) item has an equivalent in a TL (target language) translation at various language levels, such as grammatical or lexical. The structure shift shows a total of 3 data. Structure shift refers to changes in the grammatical patterns of linguistic items in the source language as they are translated into the target language. It is the shifting of modifiers and head words in the translation. The intra-system shift shows a total of 4 data. When plural linguistic items in the source language are translated into single items in the destination language, intrasystem shift occurs, or vice versa. It demonstrates that the most prevalent sort of change in the Soul by Disney movie subtitle is the intra-system shift.

Jacques Derrida dan Teori Dekonstruksi: Membongkar Stabilitas Makna dalam Bahasa

2025-12-23T15:45:57+00:00

Jacques Derrida merupakan salah satu tokoh terkemuka dalam tradisi post-strukturalisme. Gagasannya tentang dekonstruksi menjadi pendekatan filosofis dan metode pembacaan kritis terhadap teks yang menantang keyakinan tentang makna yang stabil. Melalui konsep-konsep seperti différance, kritik terhadap logosentrisme, dan ungkapan "tidak ada di luar teks", Derrida menunjukkan bahwa bahasa adalah sistem yang tak pernah selesai, di mana makna selalu tertunda dan bergantung pada konteks. Esai ini membahas secara sistematis teori dekonstruksi Derrida dan kontribusinya dalam filsafat bahasa serta implikasinya dalam ilmu humaniora kontemporer.

Threats and Preservation Efforts of Local Languages in a Heterogeneous City: A Case Study of Medan, North Sumatra

2025-12-23T15:56:54+00:00

This study investigates the threats and preservation efforts concerning local languages in Medan, North Sumatra, a city characterized by its rich cultural and ethnic heterogeneity. The research employs a qualitative design with a case study approach, utilizing in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis as primary data collection instruments. The findings reveal that despite their crucial role as markers of ethnic identity and social cohesion , regional languages in Medan face significant pressure from globalization and urbanization. Factors such as the dominance of Indonesian in formal education and media , coupled with high social and economic mobility , contribute to a notable linguistic shift among the younger generation. While youth generally acknowledge the importance of local languages, their active use remains low, often due to a perceived lack of prestige or relevance in modern urban contexts. Various preservation efforts by government bodies and local communities are underway, succeeding in raising awareness and fostering pride. However, these initiatives face challenges in consistently increasing active daily use and sustained youth engagement. The study concludes that the long-term sustainability of Medan's regional languages necessitates a holistic and coordinated approach that extends beyond instruction to create functional environments for their authentic use, actively engaging younger generations.

Reframing Authenticity in ESP: Vocational Students’ Perceptions in Engineering-Focused English Courses

2025-12-23T16:13:00+00:00

English for Specific Purposes (ESP) has evolved to meet the dynamic demands of globalized industries by fostering learners’ ability to use English in discipline-specific contexts. In vocational education, particularly for engineering students, the authenticity of learning materials and tasks is crucial in bridging classroom instruction with real-world professional communication. While existing studies have examined authenticity broadly in ESP, limited research has focused on students' lived experiences within technical vocational settings at the secondary level. This study investigates the perceptions of authenticity among Grade 12 engineering students in an ESP course at a private vocational high school in Indonesia. Employing an explanatory sequential mixed-method design, quantitative data were first collected via an online questionnaire administered to 259 students across various engineering majors. Subsequently, qualitative insights were obtained through semi-structured interviews with five students representing different engineering disciplines. The quantitative data were analysed using descriptive statistics and the Level of Respondent Achievement (LRA), while qualitative data were interpreted through Miles, Huberman, and Saldana’s (2014) analytical framework encompassing data condensation, display, and conclusion drawing. Findings revealed an average LRA of 71.4%, suggesting a moderate perception of authenticity. However, qualitative analysis surfaced significant gaps, including minimal integration of workplace-relevant content, lack of alignment between classroom tasks and professional practices, and absence of authentic assessment strategies. These findings underscore a misalignment between pedagogical design and students' future professional realities. This study contributes to the growing discourse on authenticity in ESP by emphasizing the need for contextualized material development and outcome-based curriculum design tailored to specific vocational fields. Implications are discussed for ESP practitioners, curriculum developers, and policy-makers in aligning ESP instruction with the competencies demanded by 21st-century technical professions.
