ABSTRACT
In Japanese speech levels a polite form
is known as Keego which consists of Sonkeigo, Kenjoogo and Teineigo. In
Javanese, such a form is called Undak-usuk. It consists of Ngoko (devided into Ngoko Lugu, Antya Basa, and
Basa Antya), Madya (devided into Madya Ngoko, Madyantara, and Madya Krama), and
Krama (devided into Mudha Krama, Kramantara, and Wreda Krama).
Based on the results of contrastive
analysis used in this paper, it was found out that there are similiarities as
well as differences between Keigo and Undak-usuk. Both of them have honorific
forms as well as a humble forms. The difference is that in Japanese there are
two concepts known as Uchi and Soto. This means that Japanese pay attention to
who a speaker is talking to and who is being discussed. Another difference is
that Ngoko can not be contrasted with Keigo. Krama Inggil and Krama Andhap do
not belong to speech levels. Both are lexicons giving varieties to the existing
speech levels, whereas Sonkeigo and Kenjoogo are parts of Keigo.
