4. DIAGLOSSIA
What is Diaglossia?
Diglossia is a language situation
in which there is a functional
division of language variations or
languages that exist in society.
What is meant is that there is a
difference between formal or
official and informal or non-
formal varieties
For example, In the diglossia situation,
we will find that there are levels of
language in several regional
languages in Indonesia, such as
Javanese, Sundanese, Balinese,
Madurese, each of which has a name.
In Javanese, for example, krama inggil
is used for literature , while ngoko is
used for everyday conversation .
Likewise in Sundanese, when a child
talks to a teacher, they cannot use
Loma language, but must use the
Lemes language.

5. BILLINGUALISM
Bilingualism means to have the ability to communicate in two languages. For
example, a person could communicate in French and Spanish or English and
American Sign Language. A person could become bilingual because they are
raised in a dual-language household or because they learn a second language
later in life.
for example, are native Indonesians who can speak English fluently so that it
can be said to be an event of bilingualism.

6. MONOLINGUALISM
Th ability to speak or understand only one language or the regular use of only one language is called
monolingualism.
● Concept Monolingualism the state of understanding or having the knowledge to speak or write in only
one language.
MULTILINGUALISM
Multilingualism is the ability of an individual speaker or a community of speakers to communicate effectively in
three or more languages. Contrast with monolingualism, the ability to use only one language. A person who can
speak multiple languages is known as a polyglot or a multilingual.
● An English-speaking father married to a Mandarin Chinese speaking mother with the family living in
Hong Kong, where the community language (and primary language of education) is Cantonese. If the
child goes to a Cantonese medium school from a young age, then trilingualism will be the result.
