Abstract

Badui people came from the old Sundanese Kingdom which is the Pajajaran Kingdom who was hiding when the kingdom started to collapse at the early of the 17th century following the rise of Islamic teachings by the Banten Kingdom. The Badui was the people of the Pajajaran Kingdom who fled to Lebak district and settled there. After settling down, they still apply the traditional life customs that being inherited from generation to generation. Therefore, there is a possibility the Badui people inherited some Sundanese archaic words. This study attempts to answer whether there are any Sundanese archaic words in the Inner and Outer Badui areas. The goal of this research is to inventory Sundanese archaic words in the Inner and Outer Badui areas. The data were collected by interviewing informants in 14 villages with listening, observing, and writing informants’ utterance. The methods used in this research are checking the words and compare it to the dictionary of Sundanese archaic words. The results show that there are 633 words used by the Badui people and as many as 47 words (7,42%) of it are Sundanese archaic words that are not used anymore in Bandung, but still used in Badui area. Moreover, the archaic vocabularies are not only found in Inner Badui area, which is considered more exclusive due to the strict application of customary rules but also found in Outer Badui area that is considered to be contaminated by the outermost areas because the application of customary rules is laxer.
