Abstract

This research aims to find out the Balinese language evolution in the lexicology field. The Balinese language has grown and improved since the Old Bali, Middle Bali, and New Bali periods. Within the period, the Balinese language absorbed vocabularies from other languages, particularly Javanese, such as Old Javanese (kawi) and Middle Javanese. By using the linguistic framework of historical comparison, it is found that the number of the vocabularies absorbed gained one-third of the dictionary vocabularies - Anggah Ungguling Basa Bali dictionary. It is about 2.500 vocabularies [1]. The absorption period started happening in the XII century when the Bali conquest occurred by the Majapahit troops. While Bali was occupied by the Majapahit people, the Bali social-cultural life was automatically based on the Majapahit kingdom. Since then, a new social system was issued, which is the presence of caste, colour, or dynasty system known as four castes consisting of Brahmana, Ksatria, Waisya, and Sudra. The social stratification affects the system of Balinese language which is the existence of Unda Usuk Bahasa Bali system. The unda usuk Bahasa Bali contains (1) bahasa alus (Singgih, Madya, Sor), and (2) vocabulary (Alus, Mider, Kepara). This language is used by Bali Dataran society (Majapahit people), meanwhile, Bali Aga (native) society do not know the system. The examples of the language are the words ‘funeral’: aben (andap), aben (alus sor), lebon (alus singgih) or ‘father’: bapa (andap), bapa (alus sor), aji, agug (alus singgih). The form and meaning similarity in the language aims to provide references about social stratification in the system of culture.
