Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the factors that influence the maintenance of Javanese Krama language by native speakers of the Ampelgading village community which is located at the eastern end of the Blitar border. The method used in this research is qualitative, which is to provide an overview of a situation as clearly as possible without any treatment to the object under study. This research is based on this sociolinguistic study to obtain data on linguistic phenomena that exist in society. The result concludes that there are specifically five factors influencing the maintenance of Javanese Krama by Ampelgading community: the pride of having Javanese language as the mother tongue, the influence of age in mastering Javanese Krama, the fear of being considered arrogant, the courtesy in mastering Javanese Krama, and last but not least, the motivation for older generation to pass down the legacy of Javanese Krama to their children.
