Many Javanese are now worried about the future of Javanese language. The worrisome is based on the facts that - with the increasing use of the national language Bahasa Indonesia, and the introduction of English language as a local content at some primary schools, the number of Javanese children speaking fluent Javanese is decreasing. Linguistically, Javanese language is narrowing, so it is very necessary that efforts of maintaining it be taken (Purwoko, 2010). This study focused on the attitude of young Javaneses who were learning English at an English education department towards Javanese language as their mother tongue. It aims at finding out how actually these young Javaneses –while they are learning, using, and will be teaching English in the future which involves jobs such modeling, encouraging, and motivating students to learn and speak English- perceive their mother tongue. This is a descriptive research, which, following Gall & Borg (2005) aims at providing a clear, accurate description of individuals, events, or process. The samples were the students of English Education Department of College of Languages of Sultan Agung Islamic University (UNISSULA) Semarang who were selected randomly. The data were collected by questionnaire modified from Language Attitude Scale (LAS) focusing on 3 dimensions of attitude namely language loyalty, language pride and language norm. Despite the fact that they are proficient in English, learn and use English, and may work as English teachers someday, the finding shows that these Javaneses still have a positive attitude towards their mother tongue.
