Cross-Cultural Communication of Foreign Students in the Indonesian Language Regarding Cultural Expressions
Full text linkUnderstanding cross-cultural communication is an important aspect of determining the success of communication. Understanding cross-cultural communication is the key to the success of communication (Griffin, 2010). Differences in cultural value orientation also cause differences in cross-cultural communication. What is considered good or bad behaviour, appropriate or inappropriate, polite or impolite in one culture is often perceived as different or contradictory to other cultures. This paper discusses cross-cultural understanding for international students regarding salutations and cultural expressions in the Indonesian language from a sociolinguistics point of view. This research uses a descriptive method. The data collection technique was done virtually by interviewing and filling out questionnaires. By applying the theory of Gudykunst (2003) and Gudykunst and Ting-Toomey (in Jati, 2013), this study quantitatively tested the impact of culture on direct and indirect communication. There are so many theories that discuss the differentiating factors in the emergence of cross-cultural communication. (Liliweri, 2009) explains that several systems cause differences in cross-cultural communication. The study results reveal that cultural expressions should consider cultural aspects in addressing people in certain cultures. The aspects emerge in the stratification of people in society by politely addressing them for those who are respected. They can give titles when addressing them in their equality, the same status, the same position, and other cultural perspectives. The use of the title Bapak/Pak, Ibu/Bu, Mbak, Mas, Adik/Dik, and Kakak/Kak need the students' cultural knowledge. Moreover, the study indicates how international students in Indonesian academic settings should understand implicit cultural expressions such as mau ke mana, dari mana, and apa kabar. Those expressions tend to be understood not only linguistically but also culturally
Interpretation of Literature Piracy in Tere Liye's Novel Title "Selamat Tinggal" A Study of Literature Sociology
Full text linkSociology of literature is like an imitation, to see the real situation and social phenomena that occur. in the imaginative world, there are always events in the real world that then become part of the storytelling. Literature then blends and blends between real events and fictional events. With existing innovations, hidden realities can be brought back. The object of this research is a novel entitled "Selamat Tinggal”. This novel tells about Sintong, a student who works as a keeper of a pirated bookstore: "Berkah". Sintong is a graduate student from the faculty of literature. Ideally, he does not agree with his work as a mediator for pirated books to be sold. But conditionally, only selling pirated books, Sintong can continue her studies. Understandably, he is an overseas child who has not received any money from his parents. Even guarding a bootleg shop next to the station, because the owner of the blessing shop is his own Paklik. This research method is a qualitative research method. According to Moleong, for this qualitative research to understand the phenomena of what is experienced by the research subject, for example, perceptual behavior, motivation, action and others holistically, and by way of description in the form of words and language, in a special context that is natural and by utilizing various natural methods. With this the data presented in this study are in the form of words, phrases, sentences, and the context of the story in the novel. This qualitative descriptive research is descriptive and analyzes the problems contained in the novel objectively. This study is to compare the fictional events in the novel with the reality that occurs in the real world. One example that is closest to us is students who prefer to buy pirated books rather than original books. Of course, the advantage of pirated books is that they are much cheaper than original books. The student's mediocre economic situation supports this. Sintong even when selling pirated books, has a lot of subscribers who are among students. The name of the pirated bookstore is "Berkah". This becomes a kind of satire by the author towards the world of piracy. The word blessing has a positive connotation, meaning "a lot of good". This is because the market share of pirated books is the weak economy. The goal is that ordinary people can get a lot of good from reading pirated books. Of course, the hijacked books are the “best sellers”, which have a lot of good in them. But this is actually satire. Sintong himself realized that "there is no blessing in stealing". Sintong is well aware that book piracy is a crime that is prohibited by law. But until now, the law that was at the beginning of the book has only been a decoration because no one has ever been prosecuted for pirating a book. Sintong himself is a writer. He wrote his thoughts in the mass media. He knows very well that pirated books are stealing the writer's fortune. The writer does not get a penny of money from the results of his hard work writing. The ones who get a lot of material benefits from pirated books are the producers. He simply reproduced what was already there, without ever paying for writers, cover designs, editors, lay outs, distributors and others. Just simply copy what is already there, then sell it for less than half the price of the original book. Of course that was enough profit
