1. Language Development in Modern Era
In everyday life every people can not be separated from the use of language. With
language someone can expresses ideas, thoughts, and desires in expression and
information. Have you ever heard a strange language that is often asked in this era,
especially among the youth? They have spoken using the slang language, better known
bahasa gaul. As the development of slang in this era, making Indonesia language
eroded its position among teenagers. This makes the experts began to fret be fading of
Indonesia language. Alarming the erosion of Indonesia language and right in the midst
of globalization. The tendency of the community or the students use the language in
everyday speech higher. And the more severe the growing slang that confuses the local
language, Indonesian, and English, Ismail Kusmayadi (Pikiran Rakyat, 2006) said.
I have done some research that teenagers tend to create their own language. In this case,
they have been influenced by the presence of a vibrant film published by using slang,
and from the novel was read, so that they were emulating even they embellished and
practice it. Using slang language also as a symbol of closeness. Some examples as a
symbol of closeness are berow, are you going to the party? and bi, have you eaten?.
Both examples based of my experience when I was talking with my best friends. Berow
and bi as a symbol how close our best friend relationship.
However, many of those who oppose this language which is popular among teenagers.
Head of East Java Language Department of National Education (MONE) RI, Amir
Mahmud, in Jakarta, stated that as a lingua franca, slang development was very rapid. It
is feared it adversely affected the Indonesian. Slang grows and develops in accordance
with the socio-cultural background of the wearer. "This is the behavior and language is

2. universal," he added. Slang language also resulted in fading local languages that exist in
each region. Teens felt ashamed when they have to speak using their local language, just
because they think that now is the modern era, they competed in giving themselves in
slang language. This is an important concern for the government to Indonesian defense.
One of the sites I have found, was introduced watch Wayang in Indonesia language.
Wayang already famous in Indonesia, and we have known that wayang delivered by
Java language. In my view, aired wayang in Indonesia language is incredible and
strenghthen the use of Indonesia language for our daily life. There are a negative and
positive impact about the growing languange. The negative impact is fading Indonesian
regional language especially among teens, while the positive impact is that there are
variations in the language (Tami Saosang, 20 years in age, one of the instructure in My
Liberty Course Gorontalo).
The usage of Indonesia language in daily life began to shift replaced by the use of
language, known as teen slang. Interference slang sometimes arise in the use of the
Indonesian language in official circumstances which resulted in the use of language that
is not good and not right. Meanwhile, slang language as a creativity in language among
teens. As revealed by Oemarjati that as a source of enrichment Indonesian (within the
meaning of new vocabulary), teen slang obviously more creative, more agile and
pleasant than outright borrowing foreign terms.
