초록
Malay language has had a long history with the Indian world, historically through trade and migration. As in many languages, Malay sees a semantic change in its loan words throughout time. Social change is evidenced in the shift of meaning of words as a result of the meeting of the two cultures. This study will investigate the changing faces of selected words of Indian origins in Malay which have undergone transformation through the social mileu in Malaysia. Authentic samples from classical and contemporary Malay texts will be used in tracing the etymology of these words while news and reports will be utilised to provide the reasons behind the change in meaning.
Abstract
Malay language has had a long history with the Indian world, historically through trade and migration. As in many languages, Malay sees a semantic change in its loan words throughout time. Social change is evidenced in the shift of meaning of words as a result of the meeting of the two cultures. This study will investigate the changing faces of selected words of Indian origins in Malay which have undergone transformation through the social mileu in Malaysia. Authentic samples from classical and contemporary Malay texts will be used in tracing the etymology of these words while news and reports will be utilised to provide the reasons behind the change in meaning.
