Abstract:
The investigation was meticulously linked with language use, which is part of language variation linguistically. Since Sundanese is the main point of this analysis, the research place was one of regencies in West Java, e.g. Majalengka. Furthermore, the objects were teachers and students of elementary schools in seven rural villages in the urban village of Majalengka as one of urban villages in the regency of Majalengka. Moreover, the method was basically recording the learning and teaching process and outdoor living. Compared to the previous inquiry which stated that Sundanese spoken mostly in Majalengka is rude style of Sundanese, this study resulted in distinctive statement that Indonesian and polite and rude Sundanese were frequently uttered in elementary schools in Majalengka. The closer an area to city center, the more polite language style its society utter.
