Ancaman diglosia
Pergeseran penggunaan bahasa Indonesia oleh generasi z sebagai pudarnya identitas bangsa
Abstract
This journal discusses how strengthening Pancasila as a philosophical foundation can enrich the enforcement of human rights, ensuring inclusive and sustainable justice amidst the dynamics of globalization. This study examines the phenomenon of diglossia due to the shift in language use in Generation Z, particularly when Indonesian begins to be marginalized by slang and foreign language elements in the digital space and everyday communication. Generation Z uses a mixed language variety with high intensity, resulting in a functional gap between the "official" language (standard Indonesian) and "informal" language (slang/foreign language). Through a qualitative approach with literature review analysis, this study explores driving factors, such as the influence of social media, popular culture, and social prestige attached to the use of foreign languages. The study findings indicate that this shift has the potential to weaken the national linguistic identity because Indonesian no longer functions optimally as a means of unification, education, and marker of national identity. In addition, the study emphasizes that strengthening linguistic literacy and context-based learning strategies are key to maintaining the balance of language use.
