Proceeding The 3rd International Seminar on Linguistics (ISOL-3): Language and Social Change

It is undeniable that, like human being, language also changes. The lexicon once used in a language may no longer be used in the next few years. In contrast, a lexicon that did  not  exist  before  appeared  and  was  widely  used  in  the  next  period.  The pronunciation of a word may change from time to time.

Social change in a society is triggered by various factors. In Indonesia, reform is one of  the  causes  of  change  in  various  aspects  of  social  life,  including  government, politics,  economy  and  culture.  All  these  changes  are  recorded  by  or  reflected  in language.
