Abstract


This study aims to examine the absorption of Arabic and its phonetic adaptations in the cultural context and tourism development of Karimun Java, an archipelago rich in historical and cultural heritage. The spread of Islam by Arab scholars and traders since the 13th century has significantly influenced the local language. Through an ethnographic approach, this research documents and analyzes Arabic loanwords used in the daily language of the Karimun Java community and the phonological adaptations that occur. The findings reveal that many Arabic loanwords have undergone sound changes to adapt to the Javanese phonological system, including the substitution of consonants and vowels and the adjustment of word structures. Additionally, the absorption of Arabic plays a crucial role in the social and cultural interactions of the local community, including in religious practices and daily life. In the tourism sector, the use of Arabic terms enhances the comfort and experience of Muslim tourists, both domestic and international. This research demonstrates that the integration of Arabic not only enriches the Javanese vocabulary but also enhances Karimun Java's cultural identity and tourist appeal through harmonious cultural integration. The study contributes to a deeper understanding of the influence of Arabic on local culture and its implications for the development of inclusive and culturally-based tourism strategies. The results are expected to support the preservation of local cultural heritage and improve the overall tourist experience in Karimun Java.
