KONJO-BUGINESE LANGUAGE ACCOMMODATION IN INTERACTION WITH THE IMMIGRANTS IN WEST SINJAI

This study aimed to identify the use of  Konjo-Buginese  language in West Sinjai, Sinjai Regency and the  Konjo-Buginese  language accommodation in interacting with the immigrants. This study employed the ethnography theory by Dell Hymes. The data were gathered using in-depth interview, observation, and documentation and analyzed using the communication accommodation theory by Howard Giles. The results showed that  Konjo-Buginese  language used in West Sinjai was adopted mostly from the  Konjo Mountains  language and the accommodation took the form of convergence. The divergent speech behavior was only performed by the elderly people and those who do not speak Indonesian.
