An accent is a way of pronouncing something unique in a particular language, and specific to a country, region, or social class. Recently, the 'Javanese accent' trend has been buzzing on social media. The viral Java accent began when a content creator from Surabaya, East Java, made a video that featured Javanese accents in several words. This research investigates the phenomenon of Javenglish which occurs when Javanese people speak English with a Javanese accent in Instagram Reels @natkenira. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach. The analysis shows that 60 English words from 7 Reels videos are pronounced with a Javanese accent. Indonesian speakers of English can be influenced by the accent/dialect of their mother tongue when speaking English. This causes variations of letter sounds, both consonants and vowels. Javanese style in speaking English is sometimes related to the “medok” accent as the most recognizable characteristic of the Javanese language. This character may be difficult to remove because of genetic inheritance. An accent is a characteristic form distinctive by pronunciation, style, and features of a certain language often linked with certain social groups, usually, people hope members and groups of this social language use style or speech characteristics.

“…Several prior researchers have examined the correlation between dialect and English pronunciation by conducting studies regionally in certain areas of Indonesia. Among them were, Dewi (2017) from the results of her research revealed that the Brebes Javanese dialect gave a negative transfer to the vowel sound [ɪ], and diphthongs [eɪ], [aɪ], [ɔɪ], and [ɪə] and gave a positive transfer to the final consonant sound [ b], end [d], and end [g]. However, it did not provide any transfers to the English initial cluster /st/, /spr/, and /str/.…”

“…Dalton and Seidlhofer (1995) divide pronunciation as the production and reception of sound and as the act of speaking. According to Dewi (2017) pronunciation is the way a word is spoken by the speaker in the form of sound to make meaning. From the various definitions above, the researcher concludes that pronunciation is one of the sub-language skills in learning a language.…”

This paper presents descriptive quantitative research investigating how the Kadatua dialect can influence the English pronunciation of second-grade students of SMPN 1 Maginti. The subjects of this study were 8 second-grade students at SMPN 1 Maginti with Kadatua ethnic background. The research instrument used was an interview and a test. The test was done by asking students to read a list of several English words to record and analyse their pronunciation. The results show that Kadatua dialect influenced students’ pronunciation of the following sounds: /?/, /æ/, /??/, /??/, /a?/, /??/, /e?/, /??/, /ð/, /?/, and /?/. Although some sounds cannot be pronounced correctly, it does not mean they are affected because these sounds do not exist in the Kadatua dialect alone. This would mean that the Kadatua dialect does not affect the overall students' English pronunciation. Some of the sounds that are not influenced by the Kadatua dialect are as follow: /?/, /?/, /i?/, /u?/, /??/, /??/ /e/, /e?/, /a?/, /??/, /p/, /b/, /t/, /d/, /k/, /g/, /t?/,/d?/, /f/, /s/, /z/, /?/, /h/, /m/, /n/, /?/, /l/, /r/, /j/, and /w/. Although these sounds can be pronounced properly and correctly, it does not mean that all these sounds are only found in the Kadatua dialect. This ease of pronunciation is identified because of the dialect features similarity of Kadatua with English language.

“…The positive transfer occurs when there is no sound that changes when pronouncing /d/at the ending of English words. The negative transfer occurs when there is a sound that changes when pronouncing /d/at the ending of English words, /d/ is pronounced into /t/ (Dewi: 2017. ).…”
