Perusahaan Traveloka

Seperti yang kita tahu traveloka adalah perusahaan yang menyediakan layanan pemesanan tiket pesawat,pemesanan hotel di dalam negeri maupun luar negeri.

Perusahaan ini didirikan oleh Ferry Unardi , Derianto Kusuma , dan Albert pada tahun 2012, dan mereka berasal dari Indonesia loh!

(Ferry Unardi)

Munculnya ide ini saat Ferry sering mengalami kesulitan saat membooking tiket pesawat , terutama saat dia ingin pulang ke padang dari Amerika Serikat.

Pada awalnya, konsep traveloka berfungsi sebagai mesin pencari untuk membandingkan harga tiket pesawat dari berbagai situs lainnya. Pada pertengahan tahun 2013, pengguna Traveloka bisa melakukan pemesanan disitus resminya. Pada bulan Juli 2014, jasa pemesanan hotel telah tersedia disitus Traveloka.

Pada tahun 2015, SimilarWeb mencatat bahwa jumlah pengunjung yang mengakses Traveloka melalui desktop diestimasi mencapai empat juta kunjungan. Angka ini merupakan yang tertinggi dibandingkan dengan online travel agent (OTA) lainnya di Indonesia.

Pencapaian ini juga tidak luput dari pantauan investor asing. Traveloka dipilih sebagai startup pertama di Asia yang menerima penanaman modal seri A dari Global Founders Capital (GFC). Sebagai informasi, GFC adalah firma permodalan yang dimiliki oleh Samwer bersaudara dari Rocket Internet. Ini membuktikan bahwa investor dunia melihat Traveloka memiliki potensi untuk menguasai pasar industri travel Asia Tenggara.

RAGAM & LARAS BAHASA

Hai haiii..

kali ini saya ingin berbagi ilmu yang baru aja saya dapat di kampus hehe...

• PERANAN BAHASA

          kalian pasti tahu kan peranan bahasa itu apa? yupp! peranannya adalah sebagai alat komuikasi antar manusia berupa bunyi dan simbol ( lambang ) dengan menggunakan alat ucap manusia.

• FUNGSI BAHASA

1. sebagai alat ekspresi diri
2. alat komunikasi
3. alat adaptasi sosial
4. alat kontrol sosial di masyarakat

• RAGAM BAHASA

          Jadi, variasi bahasa menurut pemakaiannya, yang berbeda - beda menurut topik yang dibicarakan, menurut hubungan pembicara, kawan bicara, orang yang dibicarakan, serta menurut medium pembicara ( Bachman,1990 ). Ragam bahasa yang oleh penuturnya dianggap sebagai ragam yang baik adalah ragam bahasa resmi. 

• LARAS BAHASA

          Laras bahasa adalah kesesuaian antara bahasa dan pemakaiannya. Macam -  macam laras yang saya dapatkan antara lain :

1. laras ilmiah              : bahasa yang digunakan dalam sebuah karya ilmiah 
2. laras ilmiah populer : sebuah tulisan yang brrsifat ilmiah, tetapi diungkapkan dengan cara         penuturan yang mudah dimengerti
3. laras feature             : bahasa yang digunakan dalam penulisan artikel di surat kabar
4. laras iklan                : bahasa yang digunakan dalam kegiatan promosi suatu produk

Sekian dan semoga bermanfaat :)
