In the context of Sarawak, there are some majority languages which are dominant such as the Sarawak Malay dialect, Iban, Malay and the English language. The status, position and influence of these languages have influenced the society’s language choice in Sarawak. The Kedayan language is one of the minority language that is present in Bekenu, Sarawak exposed to the clash with the majority’s languages. The findings based on observation of the vocabulary knowledge found there is a lack of examinations done of the Kedayan ethnic minorities from the sociolinguistic standpoint.
