VERBAL COMMUNICATION MALAY DIALECT JUGRA

This paper discusses one of the Malay Jugra Dialect variants (DMJ) found in Jugra, Varian Kelanang (VKLNG) and Bandar (VBDR). This dialect is said to be an almost dying dialect. Therefore, this study generally wants to collect data that is getting lost its use. The data collected could be reassessed the phonological aspects which have yet to be clarified on some of the DMJ studies especially in determining the amount of phoneme inventory and variation determination in the DMJ. Therefore, this study aimed to affect aspects of phonetics and phonology to describe how the phonological system VKLNG and VBDR with displays spread vowel, diphthong and see the presence of alternation. The approach used to achieve the objectives of this study is the structural approach. The results prove that the VKLNG has 8 vowel phonemes /i, u, e, o, ε, Ɔ, Ə, a/, two diphthongs /-aw, -aj/ and VBDR has 6 vowel phonemes /i, u, e, o, Ə, a/ two diphthongs /-aw, -aj/ used in their daily speech. Therefore, it is hoped that this study will solve all the problems that have arisen in the past studies and to preserve the identity of the Jugra Malay heritage through language.
