Problematika Penggunaan Bahasa Indonesia di Pasar Kamal Kabupaten Bangkalan

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the problems of using Indonesian in public spaces, specifically in the Kamal market, Bangkalan district. The research method used is a qualitative method. Research data is presented by researchers descriptively, systematically and factually. The data in this research includes the use of language that is not in accordance with Enhanced Spelling, namely the use of foreign languages, the use of regional languages and the use of non-standard languages in public spaces. Researchers found 16 problematic data on the use of Indonesian in the Kamal market, Bangkalan district which did not comply with Indonesian language guidelines, namely Enhanced Spelling (EYD). Of the 16 data, 9 data use foreign languages, 3 data use regional languages, and 4 data use non-standard languages. Based on this data, it is concluded that the use of foreign languages is the highest problematic language use that occurs in the Kamal market, Bangkalan district, as a public space that is often accessed by the public. One of the factors causing the use of foreign languages in public spaces is the influence of foreign languages, especially English which is commonly used by society in general in the current era of modernization and globalization. So this habit results in a lack of awareness among Indonesian people to prioritize the use of Indonesian over foreign languages in public spaces, one of which is in the Kamal market, Bangkalan district.
