CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of Study
Language is what the members of a particular society speak. When to or
more people communicate with each other in speech, we can call the system of
communication that they employ a code. In most cases that code will be

something we may also want to call a language (Wardhaugh, 2006). It can show
that language is not only as a tool in the society that can help people to interact
each other but also can help us to communicate, share ideas and transfer
knowledge or get some information.
Sociolinguistics is concerned with investigating the relationship between
language and society with the goal of a better understanding of the structure of
language and how language functions in communication (Wardhaugh, 2006).
Sociolinguistics is the field that studies the relation between language and society,
between the uses of language and the social structures in which the users of
language live (Spolsky, 2003). It means that when we study about
sociolinguistics, we study the relationship between language and society. Society
develops the language.
The development of language is influenced by the society itself; they
create new varieties of language. They have purpose to make the language more
interesting and easier. One of those varieties is register. Yule (2010) says that

1

jargon is special technical vocabulary associated with a specific area of work or
interest. Certain group of people uses jargon. It is related to a sector and used by

the profession group. Among profession and social group there are lots of jargons
used by language community, such as in computer, internet etc. When jargon is
used in public area or society, which has many kinds of community, it will cause
misunderstanding except certain terms that have been known by the public.
Based on the background above, the researcher is interested in analyzing
jargon used by INKADO. INKADO is one of an association of karate in
Indonesia. Karate-Do is a martial art that places weight upon spiritual rather than
physical matters (Shotokan Karate-Do International Federation, 2012). In
University of Muhammadiyah Malang, Karate-Do is a student’s extracurricular
activity. The member of INKADO consists of coach and participant. The coach is
a member of INKADO in University of Muhammadiyah Malang who has
qualification as a member who at least has achieved DAN 1(black belt).
Basically, the jargon that is used by INKADO is taken from Japanese
language. By having understanding about jargon of INKADO, it will give
contribution to enrich the utterance in sociolinguistics. It is because the students
will know there are so many varieties of language especially jargon in society. It
can increase their knowledge about jargon especially jargon used by INKADO.
