In the multilingual society of Indonesia, communication in agricultural settings is affected by variation in regional languages. This study used the methods of dialectology, isoglosses, and dialectometry to establish language boundaries and document variants of agricultural terms in three widely spoken languages in the Karawang Regency in West Java: Sundanese, Javanese, and Betawi Malay. The study addressed the challenge faced by agricultural advisors in the field of the communication gap between advisors and farmers. The advisors use Indonesian variants of agricultural terms, but farmers are familiar with terms in one of the other languages spoken in the area. This study detailed what languages are used in each village and illustrates a wealth of information on multiple variants in various languages for any particular agricultural term in Indonesian. The results will be of use to support improved yields in rice production.

This article examines the effects of age and gender on perceptions that speakers of Qassimi Arabic, a variety of Najdi Arabic spoken in central Saudi Arabia, have of the placement and extent of dialect areas marked on hand-drawn maps representing variation within their own dialect. Analysis of composite maps of respondents’ perceptions using a GIS mapping program (ArcGIS) reveals that both age and gender have an effect on respondents’ perceptions of linguistic landscape. Specifically, men tend to distinguish more linguistic variation by identifying more dialect areas than women do. As for age differences, middle-aged respondents identified more dialect areas with higher agreement levels than both younger and older respondents. These patterns of variation among age and gender groups can be attributed to differences in the local traditional society in terms of contact and geographic mobility, particularly following the socioeconomic changes that Saudi Arabia has experienced in the past half-century.

The aims of this study are to describe and to determine the percentage of lexical variations in the Javanese used by the transmigrants in Dharmasraya Regency. The data were collected using the observational and conversational method. Identity and dialectometry method was used to analyse the data. The results showed that Javanese in Dharmasraya Regency can be divided into four dialects, they are: Tebing Tinggi, Koto Laweh, Kurnia Koto Salak and Sitiung dialect. The Sitiung dialect can be divided into two subdialects, namely Sitiung and Pulau Mainan subdialect. These differences of dialects are caused by geographical factor, the distance between the points of observation, transportation, and communication. Javanese used in the daily conversation is different from Javanese used in the homeland or in Java Island, which does not have language level as known as unggah-ungguh . It happens due to the lack of mastery and understanding of the speakers about the concept.

This paper presents a corpus study of the phrase llevar a cuestas and its variants. An initial list of variants of this phrase was obtained from the ALPI . These variants were then searched for in a number of corpora ( COSER , CORPES XXI , Corpus del Español and Google). The study showed that many of the variants from the ALPI list were not present in any of the corpora. Others are just found only in lexicographic repertoires and in scientific and academic works. A third group of phraseological units was found to appear only in non-specialized texts. In addition, only a minimal part of the expressions appears in the Diccionario de la lengua española ( DLE ) by the RAE. This paper provides possible explanations for the findings of the study and concludes that phraseology is one of the clearest exponents of diachronic and diatopic variation.
本文对“吃瓜瓜”及其变体进行了语料库研究。从ALPI获得了这个短语的初始变体列表。然后在多个语料库(COSER、CORPES XXI、Corpus del Español和谷歌)中搜索这些变体。研究表明,ALPI列表中的许多变体在任何语料库中都不存在。其他的则只能在词典汇编和科学和学术著作中找到。第三组短语单位被发现只出现在非专业文本中。此外,只有极小部分的表达式出现在RAE的语言词典española (DLE)中。本文为研究结果提供了可能的解释,并得出结论:短语是历时性和历时性变化的最清晰的指数之一。

It has long been a prevalent idea in the history of Spanish that the surge of literary monuments in the 13 th led to the implantation of a solid standard superimposed on neighboring varieties as Castile expanded southwards. Recent research, however, has stressed the transfer of both Western and Eastern dialectal solutions into literary texts throughout the Middle Ages. A few key examples are offered here (mostly from the Early Modern period, whose morphosyntax has received far less attention) to show the importance of considering dialectal complexity in understanding syntactic innovation and diffusion in Spanish even far beyond the threshold of the Renaissance

The study is aimed at examining gender variation in the construction of noun phrases in an English essay quiz written by SDA College of Education students. The research design adopted was the quantitative content analysis with specific reference to descriptive design. Data were derived from 300 quiz scripts of SDA College of Education students who did English language studies in the 2015/2016 academic year (1 st -3 rd year). Chi-square analysis was used to find out whether or not there were gender differences in the use of noun phrases in sentence construction and whether they were more or less significant and meaningful. The findings revealed that the female students used more complex noun phrases but they had single modifiers. The male students on the other hand used fewer complex noun phrases but with multiple modifiers.

The use of linguistic atlases to document and study language change is still a new practice in Romance language studies. Despite the existence of material gathered in the framework of language geography projects in different domains and timeframes, few studies have used this material to analyse changes that occurred in language structures since the beginning of the 20th century. Geolinguistic information allows studying the repercussions that significant social, economic, and cultural transformations have had on rural varieties of European languages. This paper aims to show the results of research on language change in the Galician spoken in rural areas in the past century parting from information in two language atlases compiled in two different moments ( ALPI and ALGa ). We analyse perfect tense variables documented in places from the Galician language domain. The results prove the importance of geolinguistic material for understanding recent language change.
