PART III CLOSING Thanks for God to help me in arranged this project. In this project, I research sabu’s language. In this language, I found that sabu’s language was unique. I mean that, in some words, for example BADJU (T-SHIRT), the sound of DJU is almost same with DU, and there are many words more that same as those word in up. For example, DJUKA LODO (SINGING), and WUDJU ( CRAZY).
