CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of Study Communication is an activity of sending and receiving information or messages between two or more people in an effective way, so that the messages are understandable. In society, people always communicate to establish a relationship. Without communication, people cannot understand each other. In order to have good communication in society, people need a media which can be used to express their ideas or feeling. One of the media which can launch communication is language. Language is a communication tool for people to interact with other humans. Therefore, human can express their ideas, emotions, feelings and can exchange information about anything. The world has a thousand of languages. Even language has been an identity of a nation. Different country has different languages. Though not all the languages are different but only a few languages are same and not entirely have the same pronunciation. Language is not only different in each country, even in one country there are many languages of the region, or commonly called the local language. Indonesia is a rich country. It has many ethnics, culture and local languages. Every region in Indonesia has its own local language. Every local language has its own dialect. Dialect itself is a part of language, which is spoken by a group of community and understood by others. Though in one regional, there are many dialects. For instance in East Java, Madiun dialect is different from Banyuwangi dialect. The same case occurs in Sidoarjo and Tulungagung, in spite of in one regional, sidoarjo and Tulungagung have many vocabulary and sound pattern differences. There are two types of dialects. The first is regional dialect. Regional dialect has a characteristic that is restricted by area. People who come from outside area have small

possibility to understand the dialect. The second is social dialect. Social dialect is a dialect which is used by a certain social community. For instance, people from keraton (palace) are have different dialect with people are not from keraton. In this study, the writer prefers to choose Sidoarjo and Tulungagung because when the writer talked to her friend who comes from Tulungagung, the writer found the vocabulary differences that cannot be understood by the writer. Moreover, these cities are located in one regional or province, that is East Java, but they have some differences of vocabularies and sound patterns. Therefore, the writer chooses this title as a material of the research. This title is chosen because there is no researcher did this research in the previous time. Actually many researcher conducted the same field, such as Elpa Nauli Raila (2007) who studied about dialect differences between Banjarmasin and Amuntai of Banjrese and Nurul Qadryanti (2006) who studied about dialect varieties used by Sumenep people in Maduranese regional language.

CHAPTER II REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

In this chapter, the writer presents reviews of related literature. Various kinds of theories will be explained. The writer needs to choose the appropriate theory in order to have a clear understanding on how the data will be analyze. Theories are needed because they will be used as the basic foundation in conducting the analysis the data. This study is divided into three main headings. They are as follows: 2.1 Sociolinguistics Sociolinguistic is a study of language in relation to its sociocultural context. According to Trudgill (1990), sociolinguistics is the part of linguistics, which concern with language as an interaction in social and cultural phenomenon. While Trask (1999) says sociolinguistics is the branch of linguistics which studies the relation between language and society. Hudson (1996) says that sociolinguistics is the study of language in relation to society. In sociolinguistics, we study language and society in order to find out as much as we can about what kind of thing language is From those definition, it means that every aspects of language in the society can be scientifically studied, and not only learn about language, but also learn about ourselves, people who use it, live with it and live in it.

2.2 Language Varieties People do not always speak in exactly the same way. They can speak very formally or informally. Sometimes they speak in different pronunciation. Some of them speak in high tone, and some of them speak in low tone. Some are speaking in either fast or slow intonation.

Indonesia has a large number of languages. According to Prof. Dr. Krisyani, M. Hum. In her blog (http://blog.elearning.unesa.ac.id/kisyani/multi-sub-dialek-jawa-di-jawa-timur-danpengaruhnya-terhadap-mata-pelajaran-bahasa-jawa-di-sekolah), downloaded on March 26th 2012, at 20.15, says that Indonesia ranks in second position in terms of the number of languages. In the first position is Papua New Guinea which has 867 languages, while Indonesia has 731 languages. This case causes emergence various dialect. Those diversities are known as language varieties. Many people think that varieties of language are just incorrect ways of speaking, but actually they are not, they are just different. The varieties have their own ways of pronouncing words, their own special vocabulary and even their own grammatical rules.

2.3 Dialect Dialect is a variety of a language used by people from a particular geographic area. Trask (1999) said that dialect is a more or less identifiable regional or social variety of a language. It statement means that diversity of dialect can be identified by looking at the social side and regional side. 2.3.1 Regiolect (Regional Dialect) Regiolect or regional dialect is a variety of a language spoken by a certain regional. Regiolect is not a distinct language but a variety of a language spoken in a particular area of a country. Some regional dialects have been given traditional names which mark them out as being significantly different from standard varieties spoken in the same place. In regiolect, the varieties are shown from the pronunciation, choice of words, and syntax. For example, Kediri and Lumajang located in one area or one regional, that is East Java, but some their dialects are different. When people in Kediri want to say Besok (in Bahasa) or tomorrow (in English), they will say sesok, in the other hand, Lumajang will say kesok.

2.3.2 Sociolect (Social Dialect) According to Yule (1996), social dialect is varieties of languages used by group defined according to class, education, age, sex, and a number of other social parameters. From the definition above, we can conclude that sociolect or social dialect is a variety of a language spoken by a certain social class.
