Abstract

A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY OF CONJUNCTIONS IN KEKA DIALECT OF ROTE LANGUAGE focuses on conjunctions, which are words that function as linguistic bridges that connect words, phrases, or clauses in sentences. This research answers one main research question: what are the types of conjunctions found in Rote language Keka dialect? and The purpose of this research is to find out the types of conjunctions found in Rote language Keka dialect. To answer these questions, this research uses qualitative research methodology through interviews with 4 native speakers. The results show 2 main categories of conjunctions, namely coordinating and subordinating conjunctions. In the category of coordinating conjunctions, this study identified cumulative noo‘and’ with 5 examples, adversative tee huu‘but’ with 3 examples, alternative doo ‘or’ with 1 example, and illative huu‘so’ with 1 example. Meanwhile, subordinating conjunctions include reason te ‘because’ with 3 examples, time losa ‘till’ with 2 examples, condition kalo‘unless’ with 1 example, concession mae ‘eventhough’ with 2 examples, purpose fo‘so that’ with 4 examples, and manner leo ‘such as’ with 1 example. In conclusion, this study documented 10 different conjunctions with 23 instances in Rote language Keka dialect. Although the researchers acknowledge the limitations of this study, they hope that these findings can be a valuable reference for future research in this area. For future research, it is recommended to expand the scope by increasing the number of informants, examining the syntactic patterns of conjunction usage in a wider context, as well as conducting a comparative study between the Keka dialect and other dialects in Rote language to map linguistic variations more comprehensively.
