KEPUNAHAN BAHASA - BAHASA DAERAH : FAKTOR PENYEBAB DAN IMPLIKASI ETNOLINGUISTIS
Abstract: This article tries
to explain the language extinction phenomena in Indonesia particularly in
accordance with factors that can cause the language extinction and its ethnolinguistic
implications. There are some factors that can be identified as the reasons so
that many languages are in the threshold of extinction. Those are the effects
of major language, bilingual or multilingual community, globalization, migration, intermarriage, natural
disaster, lack of appreciation towards ethnic language, lack
of communication intensity using ethnic language in many domains, economic, and
bahasa. Meanwhile, the language extinction can ethnolinguistically bring some
implications. By the extinction of a language it could be the loss of knowledge
on the internal aspects of it, that is, its structure. On the other side, it
can bring implications to a loss of local knowledge and other cultural wealth
of a certain ethnic using the language because they can only be known through
the language used by its community, unless the language has been documented and
revitalized.
