Abstract

The applied research entitled ”A Study of Javanese Krama Speech to the Young Generation of Java in Surakarta city (Sociolinguistic Studies)” aimed to describe: (1) The form, function, and prospect of Javanese Krama Speech in the young generation of Java in Surakarta city, (2) The cause of miss understanding in the use of Javanese Krama, (3) The Javanese young generation’s etiquette due to the existence and implementation of Javanese Krama speech. The research findings are as follows: 1) Mudha Krama was frequently used by the young generation of Java. There were code– switching, code- mixing, Indonesian language’s interference, and improper Javanese Krama Inggil lexicon happened while they were using it. It also has an interpersonal function and the language prospect is stable, 2) Because of the transferring process, the misusing of Javanese Krama frequently happened. The lack of reference books in undha usuk (speech level) Javanese language was also one of the triggering factor, 3) Young generation’s etiquette was 90% Positive and 10 % negative, 4) There were some preventive steps, namely: developing the use of Javanese language in family, providing reference books in Javanese language book., and holding the education from kindergarten until university level, and workshop speech level periodically or incidentally.
