Abstract

DKI Jakarta is an example of a migration phenomenon that has occurred continuously since the Dutch East Indies era, making it a metropolitan city with high cultural diversity. However, this migration raises various challenges, such as the public's lack of knowledge about the history of place names in Jakarta. Toponymy, a linguistic study examining the origins of place names, plays an important role in preserving cultural identity and local history. This research aims to describe the toponymic aspects and forms of language units in the names of subdistricts in DKI Jakarta Province. The research method used is descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques in the form of face-to-face, recording and note-taking techniques. Data analysis uses the referential matching method, which selects the determining elements, and the collection method, which is the technique of dividing the direct elements. The research results show that the total data is 33 subdistricts, classified based on toponymy and language unit form. The toponymic aspect includes two categories, namely the embodiment aspect and the social aspect. Furthermore, the form of subdistrict name language units includes monomorphemic forms with free morpheme patterns and polymorphemic forms with free morpheme + bound morpheme, bound morpheme + free morpheme, and free morpheme + free morpheme patterns.
