Language Function

1. Registers function as a transmitter of meanLanguage is a tool for communicating. Communicating is basically point across. The mean divided  two that are instinctively and that is human. Communication is instinctively like animals that run, which usually are emotive (crying, complaining, expressed a sense of relief, barking orders or prohibitions, speech or human voice , dissatisfaction groans, long sigh, scream or groan in pain, snoring when the was asleep, the sound of people who are (hiccup) marks a glut, and others. while the intention or will of the group). While that is human communication is in the form of asking, answering, tell, responded. 
Language is the medium of communication between people. Communicate itself is easily understood as the intent or will attempt delivery man, using language as a tool anyway. In other words, the figure of the language that is essentially a device that conveys the intent or will of its own. In linguistic repertoire was found that the intent and will of the human being communicated may consist of some kind, there are some that are instingsif noninstingtif. Noninstingtif characterized human nature, which is used by the insane reasoning and logic.In the Javanese speech community, for example, can be found a lot of variety or variation of language, which each have a role and a different function. There is a variation of the so-called figure of speech level (speech level), which serves as both a transmitter device conveys intent and respect for the dialogue partners or other  said.
2. Variety as a transmitter of taste manneredPeople who only have one language using a variety said to distinguish situations official, unofficial, beautiful, and sacred. Variety used informally during a relaxed state. Variety used during the formal official. While the situation wonderfully romantic, literary variety is more widely used. In addition a variety of situations using sacral sacral anyway. Variety formal often shaped similar to what is called the standard language or variety of language standards. Variety informal sometimes consist of the same dialect, but that is not raw. Sometimes, too, it consists of a variety of informal "penyantaian" the standard language.
The use of words that are not pronounced in full, the syntax rules are not strict, technical words are replaced with the words of a general nature (Poedjo soedarmo, 1978). Sensitizing the community members in the use of each of these variations reflect sensitivity to the rules of society manners. Variety says that its form is determined by the events of the conversation, otherwise the members of the public to pay attention to it and pay attention to the use of a wide variety of events says different.
Consider how to make use of diverse members of the community said sensitized to the situation talk different. In other words, the existence of this diverse community said sensitized and are forced to obey the rules of good manners. Society should not use their own way in a variety of speech carry a variety of situations and events in conversation. Language and culture in a particular society is always used in accordance with the circumstances, conditions, and its specific needs as well. Intents and purposes a language usage can also be seen as one of the decisive figures or a wide variety of languages.
Community language only has one kind of language just use the figure of the language in anekan usage and needs.  feel the need for beauty, the color reveal the need for sanctity, and the need to express formality, all of them can only be represented by a single figure in the community language only non lingual.
If circumstances require user and fantastic forms and romantic, literary language diversity, language diversity literature, literary language diversity, or variety of beautiful would be more widely used. Wonderful variety of language or style language this so much characterized by a number of linguistic deviation, but it was done for the purpose of diversion of beauty and grace in relation to certain civility in communication within the community.
3. Speech level as a transmitter of respectRelationship to one another in the community is needed. In relationships, people are required to determine its attitude, which opponents said would regard as a person who needs to be respected or not. Others it needs to be ascertained in relation to the speaker network. Languages ​​usually have the means to express respect or disrespect to others.

 
There are people who think is enough to convey the respect it in a way that is related, but there are other people who claimed the respectful relationship with language specific code. First speak in ordinary language, while the second requires honorific terms (respect) to convey the feeling of respect.
4. Idiolek as a marker of identityUse of language speakers indicate social identity. Social identities of speakers can be seen through the question what and who the speaker is and how it relates to the opponent he said. Identity of the speaker can be a family member (father, mother, brother, uncle, grandfather, grandmother, cousin, and so on). Their level of use of the various languages ​​which is the identity of the speakers as well as various social styles in one hand and ways to use the language on the other.
The special characteristic utterance person or group of people can be an indicator of their social status. Use of language variation as a result of the factors of socio cultural does not mean freedom violated rules of language. Variety is the diversity of languages ​​that use a type adapted to function and situation. Each person, because of the physical and mental state of a unique language, the language has its own idiolec. Although the rules of syntax, morphology, phonology and the uniform, but everyone has their style of speech.
Everyone has their own tendencies in selecting and using various means pronounce sounds. Every person has his own peculiarities in the way of forming words and sentences, how to comply with the language and manners choose the variety and level of speech, how to refer to people who by communication, how to organize discourse, a way to channel his mental contents.
In each individual is influenced by other language be his idol. Idiolek was trying to imitate idiolek-idiolek others. However, no matter what it is he's a unique person so in the end it was idiolek other intangibles from the other. The abnormality may lie only on the colors as one voice and speech habits sound / r / her, or how to connect a conditional sentence, or in a set way of submitting a request.
Differences between individuals that may involve differences in the habit of wearing some aspects of language as well. However, in reality, every person on this earth has a way of personality usually slightly divergent from each other. If it is reversed it can be said that the divergent idiolek was actually owned by private divergent anyway.
In other words, the divergent idiolek that it can be used to identify the person that is divergent as well. In other words, something that language variation can be used to mark an individual. If an individual is patient, then the patient will tercerminlah in idioleknya. If the individual was gentle, it will be in the hospitality tercerminlah idioleknya. If the individual was courageous, it will be reflected in the way the nature of courage bicaranyalah it. Therefore idiolek tercerim of the nature of the speakers.
5. Dialect as a transmitter of a sense of solidarityIn a society where a person's individual identity is characterized by idiolek, then the identity of the members of a particular group is characterized by dialect. In bilingual or multilingual society, the group was in fact marked by language. Languages ​​or dialects can indeed be used to indicate which a person belongs.
In terms of how to pronounce the sounds of vowels or consonants or intonation sentence. May also be differences in the form of words and terms used. There are also differences in idiom or specific phrases. Or differences in strategy talk in its entirety. Except as a marker of a person's origin, dialect or language can also be used to get a sense of solidarity, a sense of kinship and sepenanggungan by users in the presence of people from other communities.
Community members not only collectively using the dialect or language, but also produce innovations together and forget the things that do not need to be shared. Dialect was caused by waxing and waning with the whole community, and use it only be enjoyed by all members of the community.

 
On the one hand, dialects or languages ​​can be equated with biological children, and members of the public as husband and wife. Dialect or language that is "the work of" those who become members of the community. Therefore, dialect or language that may be binding solidarity of people in that group. This solidarity appears strong at the time was dealing with people outside the group.
6. Standardization as a crutch sense of independenceClosely related to its function as an enricher of solidarity, language can also be used as a means of supporting the nation's sense of independence. A nation usually have their own language to express himself without dictated by other nations. Language is treated separately, because the people usually have aspects of life specifically, which is not owned by another nation.
The nation may have its own governance system; may have different customs with any other nation; may have religious and artistic life typical; may have ways of completing the other cases, and so on. All that is symbol-the symbol itself. Because of this, it is usually its language other than the language of the other.
Sense of independence is usually determined by the possession of a language that has its own standards. If the language of a nation that has a high standing in his own country, and the people usually feel a master in his own country. However, if the language he uses is just a dialect of another language, and the people often feel dependent on a nation that has no standard language was. Nation was less self-sufficient in many aspects of life. The nation can boast about his own accomplishments.
Something that is important in the sense of independence it is the nation's freedom in determining the standard language, the system he wrote, sentence grammar, idiom-idiom, the values ​​of decency and beauty in the language, and can then use it in natural language to express themselves and create what they want to create without oriented to any nation.
Therefore, it may be cognate language with language that is owned by another nation. However, so long as the nation free to determine anything else, then it is its own language was sufficient as a means to sustain a sense of freedom. However, conversely, if the grammatical rules of the language are determined by other nations, because it was his native language is other people's property, then the sense of freedom that did not exist. If the rules and the values ​​determined by other nations, the sense of self by itself does not exist.

7. Genre as a safety psychiatricThrough a variety of forms that match the color of a person's feelings that exist in the individual, language can also be used to channel mental stress. In his life, a person afflicted individuals often feel heavy, deep thoughts, as well as the desire to do something hard.When that language can be spoken in accordance with the thoughts or feelings, then the speech had been carrying out its function as a channel feelings and thoughts itu.Apabila things that infest it can be expressed then was relieved. Feeling the pressure and the other was to be reduced. But conversely, if it does not say to others, simply detained just inside yourself, loud burst of emotion that can be incurred.
8. Language as a mirror of cultureLanguage is part of a cultural community. The point is that there is a public perception of the categories will be realized in the form of language. There appear to be a wealth of language language concepts to provide categories that captured the public perception. In the end, taking into account characteristic of language, characteristic of a society will be recognized. Additionally, the language also has the function to develop and pass on other cultural forms. Without any language, can be ascertained very difficult to develop the culture of the community.
Variety said the nation reflects customary courtesy in connection with his attitudes toward a variety of events and situations speak. Dialect reflects the communities that make up the nation. Speech level reflects customary courtesy in relation to different social status held by members of the community.
 Format reflects the way tells the various facilities owned by the nation speech. Furthermore, the genre that usually reflect a variety of emotions emanating from the speakers themselves. By observing the language used by the community, usually can we describe how the development of civilization was the owner of the nation.
Accordance Malay proverb that says language suggests the nation. That is, among others, is that politeness is contained in the language often reflects a high level of civilization of a nation, or the high dignity people.
