7 Language Acquisition There are two board perspective on language development The psycholinguistic approach : Early utterances –protowords (the forerunners of words) and words themselves – ara based on a child’s personalized understanding of the world The sociolinguistic approach : language is learned through social interaction and is a means for accomodating the demands of social life

17 Premis tradisi ini adalah ketika orang berbicara, mereka sesungguhnya sedang memproduksi dan memproduksi kembali budaya. Sebagian besar dari kita beranggapan bahwa kata-kata mencerminkan apa yang sebenarnya terjadi. Pandangan kita tentang realitas dibentuk oleh bahasa yang telah kita gunakan sejak lahir. Ahli bahasa Universitas Chicago, Edwar Sapir dan Benyamin Lee Whorf adalah pelopor tradisi sosio cultural. Hipotesis yang diusungnya adalah struktur bahasa suatu budaya menentukan apa yang orang pikirkan dan lakukan. Dapat dibayangkan bagaimana seseorang menyesuaikan dirinya dengan realitas tanpa menggunakan bahasa, dan bahwa bahasa hanya semata-mata

18 Bagaimana manusia belajar bahasa?
Menurut pandangan Psikologi ( teori belajar dari aliran behaviorisme ) dan teori nativisme dari Noam Chomsky. Menurut teori belajar anak – anak memperoleh pengetahuan bahasa melalui tiga proses : Asosiasi : melazimkan suatu bunyi dengan obyek tertentu Imitasi ; menirukan pengucapan dan struktur kalimat yang didengarnya Peneguhan : ungkapan kegembiraan yg dinyatakan ketika anak mengucapkan kata – kata dengan benar

19 Fungsi Bahasa Penamaan ( naming/labelling): mengidentifikasi obyek, tindakan, orang dengan menyebut nama Interaksi : berbagi gagasan, emosi Transmisi informasi : penyampaian informasi ( Larry L. Barker) Alat bantu memori Mengabstraksikan pengalaman

20 Keterbatasan Bahasa Verbal
Bahasa terbatas dalam menggambarkan realitas : Bahasa statis, realitas dinamis Bahasa terbatas, realitas relatif tak terbatas Bahasa abstrak, realitas nyata. Kata – kata bersifat ambigu dan kontekstual Kata – kata mengandung bias budaya Pencampradukan fakta, penafsiran dan penilaian

21 Hal –hal yg perlu dihindari dalam pemakaian bahasa
Abstraksi kaku Identifikasi yg tidak layak Penilaian hanya dengan memakai dua nilai Mengacaukan kata dengan rujukan

22 Masalah bahasa Bahasa abstrak
Inferensi : suatu kesimpulan/penilaian yg diperoleh dari bukti/asumsi Dikotomi : kata – kata yg bertolak belakang ( popular words) Eufimisme : penggantian istilah yg lugas dengan yg agak halus Bahasa equivokal : memiliki dua tau lebih interpretasi

23 Simbol dan referen Simbol : sesuatu yg dipandang sebagai wakil sesuatu lainnya. Kata merupakan simbol verbal bagi obyek yg dinyatakan

24 Makna Makna muncul ketika sign yg mengacu pada obyek dipakai pengguna sign ( Fiske 1980) Makna muncul tatkala suatu simbol yg mengacu pada suatu obyek mengenai pikiran seseorang ( Odgen & I.A. Richard )

25 TEORI MAKNA Charles S.Pierce Odgen & I.A. Richard

26 Tiga dimensi makna Dimensi referential : kata, simbol yg digunakan untuk menunjukkan obyek, situasi, kondisi, pernyataan. Dimensi eksperential : makna merupakan bagian terbesar dari pengalaman obyek Dimensi purpossive :dipakainya simbol karena ada tujuan yg hendak dicapai oleh simbol ( Little John)

27 MAKNA Kata bisa bermakna setelah diasosiasikan dengan referen.
Manusia memberi makna pada kata. Makna tidak melekat pada kata – kata, tetapi kata – kata membangkitkan makna dalam pikiran seseorang. Makna bergantung pada konteks ruang dan waktu

28 Denotasi & Konotasi Denotasi ; asosiasi primer yg dimiliki sebuah kata bagi seorang/anggota masyarakat. Konotasi ; asosiasi sekunder yg dimiliki sebuah kata

29 High –Low Context Culture
Budaya konteks – rendah –----> komunikasi konteks rendah : pesan verbal & eksplisit, gaya bicara langsung, lugas, terus terang. Sifat komunikasi : cepat, mudah berubah, tidak menyatukan kelompok. Budaya konteks – tinggi > komunikasi konteks tinggi : pesan bersifat implisit, tidak langsung, tidak terus terang. Sifat Komunikasi : tahan lama, lamban berubah, mengikat kelompok
