Abstract

This research is entitled “The Vitality of the Malayu Language on the Island of Lombok”. This research generally aims to provide an overview of the vitality of the Malayu language on the island of Lombok. The Malayu language on the island of Lombok is one of the minority languages on the island of Lombok. This research only focused on Melayu Bangsal and Melayu Tengah. The issue that stands out in this research is how the Malayu ethnic, as an ethnic minority on the island of Lombok, maintains their native language in competition with the majority language. This research applies sociolinguistics. The sociolinguistic theory is used to analyze the status and percentage of vitality, as well as the causes of vitality. The results of the study of the vitality of the Malayu language are expected to be the basis for making a map of the vitality of the language and efforts to protect the language. The results of the study and the language vitality map are essentially used to monitor the status of language vitality as well as to provide information to the general public that every language has a level of vitality (from safe status to extinct).
