- Abstract
Bali is one of the islands in the tropics with a wide variety of plant species, including fruit-producing plants. One of the fruits that can be easily found in Bali is bananas. Bananas in Balinese are called Biu, a fruit that has a vital role for the people of Bali, where most of the population is Hindu. Almost every day, Hindus in Bali need bananas for religious ceremonies. In addition, bananas are a fruit that is easy to find, easy to cultivate and has various benefits for the body. This research aims to describe description of the survival of ke-biu-an lexicon in balinese society. The research design will be carried out using a qualitative approach. This research begins with determining the topic, reviewing the literature, formulating problems and objectives, studying concepts and theories, determining research methods and determining research time. The research data were obtained from interviews with informants and the public, which were then classified and studied based on ecolinguistic and semantic theory. Based on the results and discussion above, the persistence of the blue lexicon among Balinese people is still relatively high, of which 68% of the 65 lexicons are still used, and 24% are often used. The Tabanan people rarely use only 8%. Of the 65 bluish lexicons, it can be seen that there are 16 surviving lexicons, 44 surviving lexicons, and five endangered lexicons.
