Abstract

The Javanese Krama Inggil language is currently rarely used. Students at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah prefer neutral Javanese and ngoko innocent rather than Javanese Krama Inggil. The reason they prefer ngoko plain is because it is easier to pronounce and easier to understand. This research aims to describe the Javanese language skills of Krama English students at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah. This research was designed using a qualitative phenomenological approach. The object studied was students' ability to speak Javanese Krama Inggil and the subjects of this research were students at one of the private Madrasah Ibtidaiyah in Lamongan. This research uses qualitative methods to collect observation, interview, and documentation data. The data analysis technique used is phenomenology data analysis, which prioritizes data analysis through experienced phenomena. The research results show that some students still have minimal Javanese language skills and are not yet in accordance with the rules. However, students' Javanese language skills will increase substantially as time goes by. Learners often feel imperfections in their understanding of the language, and they believe that some aspects of the language can be changed to make it more interesting and easier to pronounce.

Review

This paper addresses a highly relevant sociolinguistic issue: the declining use of Javanese Krama Inggil among younger generations, specifically within Madrasah Ibtidaiyah students. The abstract effectively highlights the observed preference for simpler linguistic registers like neutral Javanese and Ngoko, attributing this to perceived ease of pronunciation and comprehension. The research aims to describe the Krama Inggil language skills of these students, a clear and focused objective that is timely and contributes significantly to discussions surrounding language preservation and intergenerational linguistic transmission within Javanese culture. Methodologically, the study adopts a qualitative phenomenological approach, which is well-suited for exploring the intricate dynamics of language acquisition and use, as well as the subjective experiences of learners. The research design benefits from a triangulation of data collection methods—observation, interviews, and documentation—which enhances the robustness of the findings regarding students' Krama Inggil abilities within a specific private Madrasah Ibtidaiyah in Lamongan. While the abstract consistently uses "Krama English," it is understood that "Krama Inggil" is the intended term, a minor editorial point for the full manuscript. The application of "phenomenology data analysis" prioritizing experienced phenomena aligns appropriately with the chosen research paradigm. The preliminary findings indicate a varied proficiency among students, with some demonstrating minimal Krama Inggil skills that do not fully conform to established linguistic rules, although an improvement in skills is noted over time. A particularly compelling insight is the students' perception of "imperfections" in the language and their belief that certain aspects could be modified for greater interest and ease of pronunciation. This finding is critical, as it opens a discourse on language evolution, pedagogical strategies, and the agency of learners in adapting linguistic norms. The full paper would benefit greatly from a detailed exploration of these perceived "imperfections" and proposed changes, offering concrete recommendations for educators and policymakers tasked with preserving and revitalizing Javanese Krama Inggil instruction.
