Banten Sundanese or Bantenese (Basa Sunda Banten or Basa Wewengkon Banten) is one of the Sundanese dialects spoken predominantly by the Bantenese — an indigenous ethnic group native to Banten — in the westernmost region of the island of Java, and in the western Bogor Regency (especially in Greater Jasinga,[2] covering the districts of Jasinga, Cigudeg, Tenjo, Nanggung, Parungpanjang, and Sukajaya; known as Jasinga Sundanese),[3] as well as the northwestern part of Sukabumi Regency. A variety of Bantenese is spoken by the Ciptagelar people in the Kasepuhan Ciptagelar traditional community in the Cisolok district and the Kasepuhan Banten Kidul traditional community in the Lebak Regency.[4]
The regional government of Banten is currently making a significant approach to preserve this dialect through a news program entitled Beja ti Lembur, which was aired by the regional CTV Banten network in Bantenese.[5]
Geographic distribution
Unlike most other language varieties in Java, Bantenese does not employ sociolinguistic register,[6][7] unlike the Priangan Sundanese spoken in the Parahyangan region which is known as the standard form of Sundanese used as a form of language of regional education.
Bantenese is classified either as a dialect of Sundanese, or a distinct language closely related to Sundanese.[8] This language is predominantly spoken in the southern region of Banten, which are Lebak, Pandeglang, dan part of the west, central, and south Tangerang Regency,[9] and a little in the western part of Tangerang City and South Tangerang City.[10][11] In the northern Serang Regency, this language is used daily by the people of Ciomas, Jawilan, Pabuaran, Padarincang, Cinangka, Baros, Petir, Cikeusal, Kopo, Cikande, Pamarayan, Kragilan, and parts of Anyar district.[7] The Banten Sundanese somehow also used by Bantenese transmigrants in Central Lampung Regency and South Lampung Regency, Lampung.[12]
