Abstract

The Landawe language belongs to the Austronesian language group. The phonological study of the Landawe language includes phonological analysis; they are sound inventory, phoneme identification, phoneme distribution, and phoneme distinguishing characteristics. Sound inventory includes vocoid and contoid sounds; phoneme identification includes identification of vowel and consonant phonemes; likewise, the distribution of phonemes includes the distribution of vowel and consonant phonemes and distinguishing characteristics adapted to conditions. The theory used in this study is that it does not experience obstacles when breathing and does not cause language sounds Pike, [1]. The language sounds are divided into two, namely segmental sounds and suprasegmental sounds. Segmental sounds are language sounds that can be broken or segmented in one segment or can be said to be independently generated and separable sounds, while suprasegmental sounds are the opposite of segmental sounds. Based on the results of the analysis, it was found that the vocoid sounds in the Landawe language are [a] [a.pi] ‘fire’, [ba.ho] ‘water’, [ga.ra] ‘salt’, [i] [i.ka] ‘ fish’, [mi.ya] ‘person’, [u] contained in data [u.le] ‘snake’, [wu.lu] ‘fur’, [e] contained in data [e.lo] ‘tongue’. [we.ya] ‘shoulder’, [o] contained in the data [o.le.yo] ‘day’, [po.le] ‘ split’ The collected data shows that the contoid sound in the Landawe language consists of 24 consonant segments they are/p, b, m, ^mb, ^mp, t, d, n, ⁿt, ⁿd, ⁿs, s, ⁿc, c, r, l, ^Nk, k, ^Ng, g, N, /, h, w.
