ABSTRACT

Aisyah. Siti. 2019. The Portrayal of Gender Difference Toward Swear Word: An
Investigation of Words and Expression Used by Indonesian Students.
Thesis, English Education Department, STKIP PGRI Bangkalan.
Advisor I: Chairuddin M.Pd., Advisor II: Tera thena M.Pd.

Keywords: Swear Word, Word Choice, Gender, Students

The society in using language is susceptible to any type of word including


the expression of swear word. This research aims to determine of the types in
swear word use based on the gender of its use in communication. Descriptive
qualitative is used as a research approach and its application uses phenomenology
methods. The data are from male and female students by matching them to
Wardhaugh’s and Jay’s list of swear word. Students of elefth social three are
selected for this research. Analysis of the results of gender-based reviews shows
that men are stronger in the use of swear word forms. In contrast to women who
are more aggressive and talk much only in their groups. Sex, death, excretion,
bodily functions, religious matters, politics, mother-in-law, animals, nicknames
are more widely used by men. For the types of rude comments women use more.
This is indicated by their words and expressions that are more feminine and long-
winded. Finally, the swear word which is included in this taboo word is used
sometimes not the same for men and women.

siswa pria dan wanita dengan mencocokkan mereka dengan daftar kata-kata
makian Wardhaugh dan Jay. Siswa kelas XI IPS3 dipilih untuk penelitian ini.
Analisis hasil tinjauan berbasis gender menunjukkan bahwa pria lebih kuat dalam
penggunaan kata-kata makian. Berbeda dengan wanita yang lebih agresif dan
banyak bicara hanya dalam kelompoknya. Seks, kematian, ekskresi, fungsi tubuh,
masalah agama, politik, ibu mertua, hewan, nama panggilan lebih banyak
digunakan oleh pria. Untuk jenis komentar kasar lebih sering digunakan oleh
wanita. Hal ini ditunjukkan oleh kata-kata dan ekspresi mereka yang lebih feminin
dan bertele-tele. Akhirnya, kata bersumpah yang termasuk dalam kata tabu ini
digunakan kadang-kadang tidak sama oleh pria dan wanita.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

The discussion in this chapter are some aspect that are the basis for

analyzing the problem in this study including research, the background of the

research, the statement of the research problem, the purpose of the research, the

significance of the research, the scope and limitation, and definition on related

terms.

1.1 The Background of the Research

The definition of gender from several points of view. Gender is a

differentiator between men and women. Meyerhoff (2006: 202) argues that gender

is a cultural variation between men and women. Biologically determined

characteristics indicate that gender is interpreted as "sex". Furthermore, he argues

that sex is a biological category and gender is a cultural and social category. Sex

in something that belongs to, and can be defined in terms of objectivity, besides

that gender is a social property which is something that is obtained and built

through relationships with others through certain cultural norms and restrictions.

There are many cultural and social assumptions that are woven into gender

differences for example, social science. There is some debate about how reliable

biological criteria must be objective as a basis for dividing populations of

different sexes. Given the cultural assumptions underlying gender differences can

be changed. But cultural and biological differences, are still widely used today,

and are a goal and recognize gender differences. Sex and gender play a role in

interpreting differences. Differences are sometimes taken between exclusive and

1
2

pre-gender important features in language. The so-called exclusive

features are features that are only used by certain gender speakers. It can be

concluded that some aspects of kinship terminology are gender exclusive, so for

example Devina as a high school student tells the listener that the person you are

referring to is a man. The same applies to friends, groups and the community.

Those who tell you that the referral is male and female. On the other hand, the

term 'group' might refer to men and women. The term kinship that marks sex

references is different even in close relations of language and culture that have a

reciprocal relationship. While Holmes (2008: 157) considers that women are more

polite in the use of language than men and the behavior of masculine men and

feminine women. In Yule's book (2010: 275) it is mentioned that men and women

inherit gender culture in the process of sociolinguistic roles in learning social

gender in discussions divided into three parts including gender words, gender

speech, and gender interaction. in this case it was found that the language used by

high school students at a glance looks the same. When examined again in the use

of language by gender, there are significant differences.

There is a book written by Holmes (2008: 157) titled An Introduction to

Sociolinguistics. In this book Holmes says that naturally men and women are

different. The form of language used by men and women is contrast. Especially in

the use of language that contains swear words in the scope of the community.

Holmes also explained that sociolinguistics is the study of the relationship

between society and language. He argues that people who speak differently in

different social contexts can be understood by identifying how people use


3

language. The social function of using language to convey social meaning in

different social contexts. This provides a lot of understanding of how language

works and social relationships in a community. This includes the way people

show aspects of social identity through their language. Therefore, throughout this

study the term gender is used to review the use of language especially in swear

words entered in the daily conversations of male and female students within the

scope of the school.

The difference between men and women in the use of language, especially

in the use of swear words is the pressure that comes from the environment and

social (Guvendir, 2015). There is a book written by Sumarsono (2012: 106) titled

Sociolinguistics. In this book, Sumarsono said that the word taboo causes changes

in the meaning of the word. Taboo words are related to social behavior and

interaction because people who do not want to be considered rude will avoid

using certain words. Furthermore, Jay (2009: 153) said that swearing is a

linguistic activity that uses taboo in English. Taboo words are placed on sexual

references. Like (blow job, jancok), taboo is a disgusting language like (son of a

bitch, brash, bullshit), some animal names, vulgar language terms, and offensive

slang. Swear words are the use of language that refers to taboo and is used as an

expression of emotions or strengthens attitudes. In the use of language, especially

young people, this swear word has been widely used in social groups such as in

high schools, students, and juvenile delinquency. Sayings in curse words are

deliberate words to express the meaning of the level of emotional attitude towards

some objects. He also believes that using taboo or not words depends on the
4

reason and purpose of the speaker. Swear words are also used for anger and other

negative things that can be used to show a number of emotions (i.e. Anger,

excitement, jokes). This arrangement is for swearing from spontaneous forms (i.e.

obscene jokes), where the time to think about what to say is absent in other words

spontaneously. In its use students include swear words in their communication in

accordance with the social and cultural environment in the school and their

relationships. therefore, they consider swear words to be a common thing to use in

their conversations.

Language contact is a variation of language between individuals and

members of different groups (Meyerhoff, 2006). Moreover, Sumarsono (2012: 18)

claims that language is an instrument of students in expressing what they think

and feel. In other words, language is a tool for connecting and interacting. In

another perspective Joseph (2015: 300) argues that for language contact which has

influence between the language or more than various languages. Contact the

speaker for speakers who are characterized as language contacts and involve

dialects such as language variations. Thus, the use of language in contact between

speaker and speaker becomes different due to language differences. Language

contacts can appear in changes and loan languages. Two different language

groups can understand each other even though they use their own language. Like

the situation in high schools in Indonesia, Javanese students and Madura students

meet and carry out dialogue. When becoming Madurese students, Madurese

speaking students speak Madurese and Javanese students who speak Javanese,
5

they will be able to understand by identifying the language used by their

interlocutors.

Language style is a social feature of language use. The most fundamental

difference from the discussion style is the formal use which is careful in paying

attention and informally who is not careful in paying attention to the speaking

style (Yule, 2010). Whereas Meyerhoff (2006: 27) states that judgments made by

sociolinguistics about another people's speech are generally good and harmless.

Some sociologists explain what features represent the accents or dialects of

speakers from various regions and then identify the origin of speakers from the

way they speak. When linguists talk about accents, they only refer to how the

speaker speaks words, while they use dialects to refer to the characteristics of

pronunciation and vocabulary as well as sentence structure. In this case, the

relationship between language style and swear words lies in the way students pay

attention to the language style of their interlocutors. People who are careful in

paying attention to the style of other people's language will be more easily

offended if given swear words. Different from informal people, someone who is

not careful with language style and will be indifferent. Gender-based students use

swear words freely to anyone except certain people. They do not use swear words

in the person they are afraid of.

Based on Yule (2010: 135) language at the level of politeness enters two

parts, positive and negative faces. In the study of linguistic courtesy, the most

relevant view is "face". The face is a person's public self-image. These are the

emotional and social feelings that everyone has. Humility can be defined as
6

showing the awareness and consideration of the faces of others. You could say

something that is a threat to the self-image of others, it is called an act of

threatening the face. For example, if you use the act of direct speech to get

someone to do something (kammah pen? Ngenjhemmah!), You behave as if you

have greater social strength than others and that is a negative face of politeness. If

you don't really have that social power, then you have a threatening face. Indirect

speech acts, in the form related to the question (crank olle ngenjhem pulpenah

yeh?), Eliminate the assumption of social power. High school students will use

words that indicate negative faces and positive faces as languages based on their

intended use. In this case they do not care about the expression used in

communication because all they know is about who they are talking to. This

research was conducted when teaching practice in high school where students tend

to use swear words in their conversations.

The researcher has taken as four previous studies titled “The Use of Swear

Words in Four Brothers Movie”, “Why Are Males Inclined to Use Strong Swear

Words more than Females? An Evolutionary Explanation Based on Male

Intergroup Aggressiveness”, “The Use of Swear Words and its Relationship with

Taboo Words in Crank”, “Men and Women Differences in Using Language: A

Case Study of Students in STAIN Kudus”. This research is related to the use of

swear words. Researchers focus on using language as a medium to communicate

with people to understand each other. Based on this research, swear word as one

of the research materials in understanding language is changed from its true

meaning. Based on its scope, male and female students feel normal in using swear
7

words. In this study what is interesting is the use of Indonesian and Madurese in

the swear word pronunciation used by students based on gender in high school as

an object.

This research focuses on words and expressions. Researchers analyzed

swear words based on male and female pronunciation that looked the same and

there were no differences. Researchers focus on the objects and languages they

use. In this study the object chosen in Bangkalan Madura, especially in SMAN 4

Bangkalan, class 11th grade social 3 is addressed to certain places during breaks

and several opportunities for data collection. Researchers focus on swear words

that slip in students' conversations. There is a uniqueness in this research and the

use of swear words in Indonesian and Madura by high school students. The use of

swear words will be adjusted to Wardhaugh's (2006) list of swear words and Jay's

list of taboo word.

1.2 The Statement of the Research Problem


Based on the background of study, researcher found research question. As

follow:

1.2.1 What types the swear words based on the gender?

1.2.2 How is the students swear words based on the gender?

1.2.3 How is the forms used by the students?

1.2.4 How is the swear words function to their communication?

1.3 The Purpose of the Research

Related to the statements of the problem, this research aim


8

1.3.1 To find out the types of swear words based on the gender.

1.3.2 To find out the students swear words based on the gender.

1.3.3 To find out the forms used by the students.

1.3.4 To find out the swear words function to their communication.

1.4 The Significance of the Research

Hopefully this thesis can be a reference for other studies related to

sociolinguistics, gender, and language variations. In addition, this thesis can be an

inspiration and discussion material for similar research.

1.5 The Scope and Limitation

The scope and limitation of this study is in the language of gender and is

limited to swear words used by students in high schools in Indonesia at SMAN 4

Bangkalan especially the 11th class of IPS3 in Bangkalan Madura. In collecting

and selecting data, this study does not observe the user's cultural settings for swear

words. So, the selection of this research data depends on observing swear words

used by students in schools, especially in certain places that have the potential to

issue swear words as in the classroom when not learning activities, in the

classroom and its surroundings. That is in accordance with Wardhaugh's (2006)

list of swear words and Jay’s list of taboo words, and thus becomes the scope and

limitations of this study.

1.6 Definition on Related Terms

To avoid misinterpretation and misunderstanding about the use of some

key words used in this research, below are some definitions on related terms.
9

1.6.1 Gender

Gender is a biological characteristic of gender that distinguishes

between men and women based on socio-cultural behavior and speech.

Furthermore, male and female speech styles are contrasting. In any

community men and women cannot talk to each other exactly, they have

significant differences. The concept of gender shows that after all this

discussion was carried out to describe the behavior of men and women.

Therefore, by looking at the socio-cultural aspects and speeches to define

gender, language styles in men and women have different characteristics

and differences that are of concern to researchers.

1.6.2 Swear Word

Swear words are verbal expressions that are included in taboo

words. This word is a word that contains many elements which include

expressions of happy expressions, jokes, insults, harsh comments. The

word curse is usually used to express strong pressure that comes from

within. The use of the word oath highlights situation choices, the

distribution of attention, word changes, expressions and responses. As the

source explanation obtained there are many factors in the use of swear

words, although usually these words are only used and expressed when

emotions increase. Swear words are used by people who freely speak

unlimited harsh words in their pronunciation.


CHAPTER II

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

Reviewed in this chapter are some theories of related to the topic,

sociolinguistics, pragmatics, language variation, swear words, and previous study.

Hopefully, these theories help construct better understanding of how male and

female become different regarding the language they use both in utterances as

well as in written forms.

2.1 Theoretical Framework

2.1.1 Sociolinguistics

As a branch of sociolinguistics, sociolinguistics discusses language

use in social context. Jendra (2010: 9) assume that sociolinguistics is the

object of study from the linguistic branch of language. Usually distinguished

by looking at various uses of syntax, semantics, morphology, and phonology.

This field is the analysis of language as part of social property. This study

explores the functions and varieties of languages, contact between different

languages, people’s attitudes towards language and user use, language

changes, and language plans. The term sociolinguistics refers more to

language studies in relation to society. Quite similar to Jendra’s definition

Hudson (2018: 1) simply stated that sociolinguistics is a part of language

studies in relation to society.

Wardhaugh (2006: 13) stated that sociolinguistics is a matter that is

focused on the investigation of relations between languages and the

10
11

community with the aim of becoming a better understanding of language

structure and how the language functions in communication; the equivalent

goal in the sociology of language is trying to find out how social structures

can be found and understood better through language studies, like, how

certain linguistic features which has function to characterize certain social

settings. In another statement, based on Hudson in Wardhaugh (2006: 13)

sociolinguistics is the study of language is the study of society in relation to it

to language.

Other linguist, Bloomfield in the Sumarsono’s book (2010: 18) argues

that language is the sound of an arbitrary symbol system that is used by the

community to interact and be interconnected. He also explained that language

is a system that has rules and interdependence containing elements in the

form of structures that can be analyzed separately. Linguists by and large

simply the see in terms of the structure of the language without seeing the

meaning in the language. In addition, sociolinguistics in Gray’s view (2009:

107) is linguistic related to explaining the patterns and structures of humans

in using language uniquely. When language is used in social context related

to the users, there will arise some variations as it is known that societies as

the language users will create language based on the context.

It can be concluded from the exposure conform to experts who

explained that sociolinguistics is a theory that discusses the language use in

the society. As already discussed, sociolinguistics with various uses such as

syntax, semantic, morphology, and phonology. Linguistics is related to


12

exposure to the use of language in human structures. The use of language in

these societies find out how social structures can be understood. This can

characterize social arrangements in the study of languages related to society.

2.1.2 Pragmatics

There is a book written by George Yule (2010: 127) entitled The

Study of Language. Pragmatics is a communication in understanding about

recognizing the meaning of words in speech and know what speakers mean

by what they say. The meaning of this pragmatic explains what the sense of

the word. Further, he argues that many ways, speech is a meaning that is not

visible and is interpreted as a pragmatic which can be seen from how to know

what is meant. the speaker can depend on many assumptions when they try to

communicate. Investigating these assumptions and expectations provides

some insight into how they are communicated. He also explained in

pragmatics there are many words and meanings that must be interpreted as in

the context. In a word must use the meaning of the word and connect it in the

context in which they appear. Pragmatic also leads to a reasonable

interpretation of what the speaker wants to say. The speaker interpretation of

“meaning” is not solely based on words but must lead to what is meant in

communication. Therefore, the speaker and listener or information provider

and recipient are actively involved in creating interpretations of what is seen

or heard.

Jendra (2010: 179) in his book also states that pragmatics and

sociolinguistics are basically sustainable because both of these theories


13

emphasize the importance of contextual meaning. The meaning implied in

speech, i.e. speech act there is found primarily through an analysis of the

social context in which the conversation takes place. Social meanings can

also be concluded in language choices, mixing code that is analyzed only by

conversation analysis. The division between micro and macro of

sociolinguistics which reflects quite a bit of the relationship between

pragmatics and sociolinguistics that is related. Holmes (2008: 357) also

quoted about pragmatics. He assumes that pragmatics are sentences that have

meaning and can be clearly interpreted with sense. By understanding this

theory, its point is much more dependent on who says it and the person who

captures or receives from what is said pragmatic broadens the analysis the

meaning outside the grammar and the value of words so that language and

significance have many views and lead to questionable situations. So, he

thinks that pragmatics is related to the analysis of words and their meanings.

From some of the above meanings it can be concluded that

pragmatics is an understanding of the meaning of words in from of speech

or writing. Both of them recognize the meaning of words and speech and

know what is meant. There are many sayings whose words are abstract.

Abstract-looking words can be interpreted using pragmatic theory

understanding. This is an analysis of the social context and conversation

that takes place with an understanding of the meaning of words and

utterances.
14

2.1.3 Language Variation

Variation of language is created by the users (society). This creation is

based on social context such as producing many words or registers to use in

communication. Other than that language variation is also observed in

relation to gender, i.e. there is language variation between male and female

speakers. This is the speaker’s social context as sociolinguistics. Samara

(2017: 86) argues that existence of sociolinguistic variations also plays a role

in the language of adults, children are able to respond to variations in socially

conditioned languages such as children taking different facts from native

speakers and using them with different language variations. There is a book

written by Jendra (2010: 28) entitled Sociolinguistics the Study of Societies’

Languages. In this book he said that use of language is a classification of

language variations. There are two types of language variations, namely

individuals and varieties of social languages. Sociolinguists have further

classified social varieties according to social perspectives, for instance the

area in which the language is used and when it is used. In relation to the

varieties of different languages including the way there are used, and various

professional fields which are usually related in the language itself. The

method of use such as, gender which is the language and differentiated into

variations of male and female languages. Similarly, in ethnic references using

language. There are various variations of ethnic languages. The fields with

language lexicons that are usually associated, there can be many variations of

language, such as variations in language within the scope of education.


15

In Spolsky’s view (2003: 33) language variety is a third set of

variations concerning the special variety (register) which is marked by a

special vocabulary (technical terminology) associated with a profession or

occupation or other defined social group and forming part of its jargon or in

group variety. Another Spolsky’s statement about language variety, i.e.

dialects, styles, and registers as mentioned before are ways of language

varieties. Concerning language varieties in gender, Spolsky’s (2003: 36)

clearly stated that is was ethnography who first draw attention to distinguish

between male and female varieties of language, often which clear differences

occur in vocabulary. Therefore, it is absolutely clear that those variations may

arise in both male and female pronouns like taboo words, the so called swear

words.

Agree with some experts who have explained variations in language,

it can be concluded that the variation of language is made by the user

(society). Based on the social context the language can produce many words

used in communication. The language can be socially conditioned like

children who take the words or languages from native speakers and use them

with different language variations. Therefore, the use of language is a

classification of language variations social. As explained if the language is

distinguished between male or female, a clear difference occurs in the

vocabulary.

2.1.4 Politeness

Holmes (2008: 270) note that pronunciation of appropriate language

to be used in politeness language. Language is determined by the culture of

communication in a speaking community that is certainly different and

emphasizes different functions and expressions. Holmesh also explains the

concept of politeness which is divided into two, namely positive and negative

politeness. Based on ideas in expressing modesty, being polite is complicated

if you don’t understand the language. Difficult to know because one must

understand the social and cultural values of the community. This tends to be

ignored because the majority of people who only understand and think of

modesty are just words of “help” and “thank you” in the true place. This is

superficial thinking because positive politeness is oriented towards soidarity

and emphasizes the attitude as well as the value of togetherness. Whereas the

negative politeness which is self-expression is appropriate in terms of social

distance and respects status differences such as using titles for superiors. So,

there is a difference between superiors and subordinates. Being polite is also a

dimension of formality. Formal language is used to respect social and culture

in society usually this language is used for things that are official. While,

informal is a language used in daily conversation.

However, Yule (2010: 135) discuss in general, politeness is identical

to being wise, humble and kind to others. In linguistic politeness, the most

relevant concept is “face”. Face is a person’s self-image in public. This

includes emotional and social feelings from everyone. By definition the


17

politeness shows the awareness and consideration of other people’s faces.

There are positive and negative face a part of facial expressions. Positive face

will show a solidarity and attract attention to achieve the common goal (i.e.

let’s cooperate for....). Negative face is liberation from coercion and pressure

that is appropriate to one’s own need to be connected and interwoven well

when interacting in a group or community. Negative faces will show an

emphasis that forces (i.e. I know you can’t be bothered, but....).

The construct from the explanation of several theories above is

politeness is the pronunciation of the right language to be use in the sense of

language that contains polite nature. In this case the language used is

determined by culture and community in the use of the language. Modesty

here emphasizes various function and effects of expression. Politeness is

usually seen through the image “face”. Politeness is divided into two, namely

positive face and negative face. Positive face is showing a solidarity and

attract attention whereas negative face is liberation from coercion and

pressure.

2.1.5 Swear Words

Swear words are part of taboo words, most of them used to swear but

not all taboo words are swearing words [ CITATION Ban14 \l 1057 ]. Further,

Popusoi (2018: 133) state that the swear words is a mechanism that does not

necessarily mean an anger. The swear word not only verbal expressions can

also be a way to overcome anger. The role of thinning info in uncovering

anger combined with expressions to better understand user behavior in


18

possible situations is frustrating. Similarly, Jay (2009: 159) claim that swear

as a catharsis action that frees a person from feelings of anger or frustration.

When a person faces a threat or problem that he is facing, it may be believed

that a rude or aggressive speech will greatly enhance his ability to control the

threat or problem. The catharsis effect can also explain why swearing might

be an alternative to physical aggression. By releasing steam through

swearing, feelings of anger and frustration can be reduced, so that the

probability physical aggression is clearer.

Jay is right, in line with his opinion (2009: 153) defines that the swear

words is a prohibited word that is reaffirmed in educational practice. Native

speaker get knowledge of swear words, but do not have the complexity

required by psychology to understand swearing. Misperception still exists in

psychology and in the wider community about how often people swear or

what it means when they do it. Words define general events of swearing.

Swear word is negatively correlated with agreement, accuracy, religiosity,

and sexual anxiety. Unique human facilities for swearing evolve and continue

because swear words can communicate emotional information (anger,

frustration) easier than non-swearwords, allowing speakers to achieve a

variety of personal and social goals.

2.1.5.1 Types of Swear Words

Based on Wardhaugh (2006: 239) there are languages that are

avoided and not to say. It is called swear word are part of the taboo

word. This word is word that is avoided because taboo is a behavior


19

that is prohibited and avoided in society and taboo is a very strong

courtesy obstacle, this can be said if it refers to certain circumstances

for example by certain people and only if needed to be spoken. Taboo

is those who free themselves in speaking. There are 7 (seven)

variations of swear words, it covers: sex; death; excretion; bodily

functions; religious matters; and politics. 3 (three) of which are swear

words that must be careful in their use, it covers: mother-in-law,

animals, and use of your left hand. There are types of swear word that

have been described by [ CITATION Ban14 \l 1057 ].

1. Sex: this term is refers to sexual activity. These sex-related SW are

usually used by adults who understand the meaning of sex, (fuck,

blow job, menta jata, jancok, and etc...)

2. Death: this term is refers to do something that makes others afraid.

This SW is related to a thing in the form of a threat, (go to hell,

mateyah, mati saja kamu, and etc...)

3. Excretion: this term is related to excretory of human to express an

insult and disturbance. This form of SW this used to give a term

and mention for things that you dislike, (damn, shit, brengsek,

bangsat, korang ajar, and etc...)

4. Bodily functions: this term is refers to human sex organ. Usually

this word is used in matters relating to intimate devices on the

human body, (nipples, penis, cetakkeh, matanah, seenak jidat,

tongkeng, and etc...)


20

5. Religious matters: this term is related with god or religion. This

word can be used as a curse word because it contains a mystical

element, (devil, gosh, jerengkong, setan, and etc...)

6. Politics: this term refers to the comforter. A person who high

position can easily to demean others under him, (black campaign,

dasar koruptor, tokang korupsi, and etc...)

7. Mother-in-law: this term is refers to insult. Mocking and making

fun of older people, (motherfucker, tua bangka, and etc...)

8. Animals: this term is dealing with animals and animal behavior.

Usually animals that like to attact and have cold blood, (dog, pick,

crocodile, wolf in sheep’s clothing, moseng, patek, cerek, monyet,

and etc...)

9. Left hand: this term is refers to indicating (middle finger). This is

SW by giving sign language

Based on the kinds of swear words above, each type has

various forms of invective words and contains different meanings in

each pronunciation. Popusoi (2018) state that swear words include to

verbal expression. This word of the master is conformed as needed as

the need for user pressure. Usually they use it has a purpose to reveal

some circumstances. It covers, sad, depression, even to show their

happiness. The swear words is included in the type of taboo word that

have the same meaning, although not all taboo words mean swear

word because this harsh word is prohibited in its use. The use of
21

gender-based swear words that investigate words and expressions by

men and women shows a significant difference. In word pronunciation

and verbal expression, men are stronger when using invective words

than women. This is further explained by Guvendir (2015) stated their

have different levels of aggressiveness. Women are more able to

control their emotions by noticing when they say these invective

words. Unlike men who are more indifferent to their use. In issuing

the taboo words Jay (2009) argues that the reason they use this word is

to use the express themselves with their peers such as giving

nicknames or just habitual epithets.

2.1.5.2 The Reason of Swearing

The reason for using or not swear words from the statement Jay

(2009: 155) have shown that depends on the main purpose of the

speaker. Pronunciation the swear words signifies a number of

emotions such as excitement, anger, frustration, and surprise. Control

of oaths is in spontaneous forms such as the example of nickname and

habits of epithets, where we seem to have little control, to form

reflective meaning new obscene joke from Lacker’s argument in Jay,

that taboo words can be used to achieve a variety of personal and

interpersonal results that may be negative and in significant in terms

of impact on others, although some might argue that all use of swear

words is dangerous. More than just saying swearing, there is a

category in the use of swear words. Like literal usage (we fucked), the
22

use of swear words can occur with nicknames or as insults directed at

others.

Similarly, Jay (2009: 155) argues that nickname is an offensive

burst of emotions from single words or phrase facilitators that are used

to express the speaker’s hatred, and anger such as (Holy shit!fuck me).

Jay also stated that the form of taboo use includes calling names and

dropping sanctions and cursing or hoping to harm someone, i.e.

making love, dying. The swear words is a feature that defines sexual

abuse, blasphemy, obscene phone calls, discrimination, hate speech,

and verbal abuse categories. He added that positive social outcomes

are achieved by using swear words in jokes and humor, social

commentary like a rude comment, sex talk, storytelling, in-group

slang, and self-deprecation or ironic sarcasm in order to promote

social harmony or cohesion.

In some phenomena there are differences in the language of

men and women in their use. Women tend to speak more than men,

Wahyuningsih (2018) states that this is due to the character possessed

by women more polite and expressive. This shows that women use

more words and movements that use their feelings and thoughts based

on psychological and sensitive emotional states. Unlike men when

using language, especially in the use of swear words, in their speech

they are more directed and to the point.


23

Concur with some experts it can be concluded that swear words are

part of taboo words. There are nine types of SW it covers: sex, death,

excretion, bodily function, religious matters, politics, mother-in-law,

animal, left hand. The reason someone uses S.W is usually those

whose emotion increase, humor, and lose control. Although some

might state that someone use SW its mean dangerous. The use of SW

can occur with nicknames directed at others. In some situations, it is

also explained that women tend to talk more than men due to

psychological and emotional conditions to show their feelings.

2.1.6 Previous Study

In order to conduct research, the author has explored the results of

previous studies so that the research conducted by the author shows the

continuity of the issue. Search results research more leads to research that

is almost the same as the research that the author did. The research that the

author did with the title “The Portrayal of Gender Difference Toward

Swear Word: An Investigation of Words and Expression Used by

Indonesian Students” has never been done by another author. To make it

easier to find out the previous study and the research that the author will

do, its correlation with the results of previous studies.

The Use of Swear Words in “Four Brothers” Movie was the first

previous study compiled by Bangun Purwa Aji in 2014. This source was

obtained from a thesis made by Faculty of Letters and Humanities State

Islamic University UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya as a final project. This


24

study uses a descriptive qualitative method. The results of this study are

the swear words which often appears in four brother films. There are seven

types of swear words that are found in the Four Brother movie. It covers,

sex term (fuck), excretion term (shit), body function (tits), death (damn),

mother in law terms (bitch), animal term (dog) and religion matter (ghost).

The results of this study also show that there are several reasons why

speakers say the swear words as a pain reliever, power, control, humor,

and non-violence.

The second previous study is “Why Are Males Inclined to Use

Strong Swear Words more than Females? An Evolutionary Explanation

Based on Male Intergroup Aggressiveness”. This research was taken from

Journal of Elsevier and uploaded in 2015, created by Emre Guvendir. This

study shows that the use of swear words men are more aggressive than

women because male do not have the potential to control emotions that

increase. Women are more able to hold themselves back, from the

explanation of evolution and the theory of the sexual selection and the

selection of sentences, explaining that boy show more when their emotions

and rising. That men are early hominids who are involved in violent

behavior and are more aggressive than girl. This for the sake of investment

parent’s “offspring” causes the female brain to have a larger orbital frontal

cortex that modulates the anger produced by the amygdala. On the

contrary, the male brain does not need it. Research shows the role of sex in

the environment has a big effect on brain biology. Hence the men brain
25

does not feel any environmental impulse to change its structure and

develop a larger orbital frontal cortex to control anger and aggressiveness.

The previous study was taken from a thesis created by Nurhayati in

2007 entitled “The Use of Swear Words and its Relationship with Taboo

Words in Crank”. Conclusions from the results of the study show that

based on the analysis that has been made made results that swear words

are used by people to express emotions. Swear words used by characters

are very strong. In the results of the analysis the character has expressed it

in a state of irritation, surprise, indifference, insult, and rejection. Some of

these swear words are included in taboo theory because they refer to

sexual activity, body term, and religion. After completing the study, the

author knew a lot about the S.W and its relation to the taboo word. The

S.W is usually used as a daily conversation. So, the S.W is part of taboo

words but be interpreted as swear words.

The last previous study is “Men and Women Differences in Using

Language: A Case Study of Students at STAIN Kudus”. This research was

taken from Journal of English Education, Literature, and Culture (EduLite)

and uploaded in 2018, created by Sri Wahyuningsih. This study shows that

the use of swear words male are more directive and tend to use simple

words whereas the female who are expressive. So, in talking women are

wordy. They show differences in using language and this study uses a

descriptive qualitative method. The results of this study that male and

female students show differences in their forms, contents, and uses.


CHAPTER III

METHOD OF RESEARCH

This chapter describes the method of the research. Research methods are

an important part of a research, it covers: research design, data collection, setting

of the research, and the data analysis.

3.1 Research Design

This research is naturally descriptive qualitative. This means that this

research analyses the data by describing the data in details. At the same time, this

research is qualitative because the data analyzed are not in the forms of numbers

(or numeric) but they are in the forms of words, phrases, or utterances or

sentences. Taguchi (2018: 3) states that using a qualitative approach is an open

approach and exploration that can be done by researchers in committing to gain an

understanding of the reasons behind a phenomenon or event. Data can be obtained

through interviews, observations, and field notes that produce abundant

information about behavior, views, and mind. Data lies in a naturalistic context by

analyzing related to the holistic context, researchers can express the reciprocal

relationship between contexts learner equality and characteristics, and form

development dynamically.

Based on that theories, it can be concluded that qualitative research is data

that is taken in detail and requires analysis of in-depth data. This data is used to

find answer to questions and get understanding and problem solving from a

26
27

phenomenon that is sought. This qualitative data is original because of taking the

data can be in the form of observation, interviews, and field note.

Quoted from Ary (2010: 29) qualitative research methodology can take the

forms of basic case study, ethnography, grounded theory, phenomenological

study. The brief explanations of them are as follows.

(1) Case study: this method of qualitative study is a focus on the single unit.

An in-depth study a specific individual or phenomena in its existing

context.

(2) Ethnography: behavior that occurs naturally in a culture. The study of

human interaction and communication through direct participation and

observation within the community to be studied

(3) Grounded theory: the purpose of grounded theory is to develop theory

based on the data collected. It looks at specific information and derives

theories and reasons for the phenomena.

(4) Phenomenology: is the study of the subjective experiences of others. It

researches the world through the eyes of another person by discovering

how they interpret their experiences.

This research then uses the phenomenology method because the data are

subjective experience of others (students) which are researched to discover how

their experience is interpreted. It is why the qualitative method is obviously

appropriate to be applied to analyze the swear words used by Indonesian students

especially at senior high school.


28

3.2 Data Collection

There are several methods of collecting data that can be used to do

qualitative research as suggested by Denzin in Flick’s book (2009: 226).

3.2.1 Observation

This study uses observation as a data collection tool defined by

Denzin in the book Flick (2009: 226) stating that observation is a field

direct that observes members' perspectives and influences what is

observed. This observation begins with the random collection of male and

female students in the form of sound recordings. All of these data were

observed to see whether or not they matched the categories of swear words

suggested by Ronald Wardhaugh in his book "An Introduction to

Sociolinguistics" published in Blackwell (2006: 239). This study focuses

on Indonesian high school students in Bangkalan especially SMAN 4

BANGKALAN, 11th grade IPS3. Researchers will visit places that are

usually visited by high school students and make it possible to take swear

words, such as in classroom area when there are no lessons in class.

Researcher sit around them and will record their conversations and retrieve

data in the form of oath words they say. Field notes which are processes of

observation are important things that publish by the researcher from an

information and answer to a research question [ CITATION Uwe09 \l 1057 ].

Participants and researchers repeatedly monitored and recorded also

recorded during the observation process. The researcher stayed in the area
29

of SMAN 4 BANGKALAN students especially in class 11 th IPS3 and

record their conversations while making notes on the field.

3.2.2 Questionnaires

In starting a qualitative study, the first step that must be taken is to

determine the questions in the study. This question aims to solve the

problem of the research questions. Research questions in the form of

developing ideas. Research questions are located in the personal biography

of the researcher. The social context that shown on the subject who receive

the question must also be considered [ CITATION Uwe09 \l 1057 ] . Before

that researchers have prepared the appropriate and determined questions.

Then give questions to the subject (students) so that they can answer as

with the experience of invective words they have said.

3.2.3 Interview

In a focused interview to interpret statistically significant findings.

The stimulus presented is content that has been analyzed previously. In the

interview process that uses the non-direction, specificity, range, and

personal context indicated by the person interviewed. In the interview

must issue specific elements so that it can provide encouragement to the

interviewer to remember certain situations. Determining explicit questions

is important to help the subject in connecting his responses [ CITATION

Uwe09 \l 1057 ]. The researcher conduct interviews with the Indonesian

students as society especially in Bangkalan Madura by asking them to

answer questions given by the researcher with the aim of getting


30

information from the target. The researcher used the interview because he

wanted to know a significant difference in the use of swear words about

gender.

3.2.4 Recording data

In qualitative research Flick (2009: 294) argues that recording is

one way of collecting data. The use of recording devices such as (MP3s,

mini-discs, and recorders) is one of the ingredients of data collection. In

everyday the active school during recess the researcher will start

observation and recording depending on its use. Usually the tool used is a

gadget because it allows several formations. In the recording process to get

data. The researcher stay around the students which makes it possible to

take swear words or in groups of students who are joking, or fighting.

Researcher always record each situation gradually. Researcher stop record

after that gets valid data, the researcher analyze and choose the data

needed.

3.3 Setting of the Research

3.3.1 Place

This study conducts at SMAN 4 Bangkalan High School, 11 th

grade IPS3 at a place that has the potential to use swear words such as, in

the classroom area even in class when they are free and canteen. The

location is in Bangkalan-Madura, East Java.


31

3.3.2 Time

The period start from March to May 2019. This time vulnerable

includes preparation for making instruments, completing research licenses,

trying instruments, revising proposals, conducting research, analyzing

data, and making results from research.

3.4 The Data Analysis

Data analysis is complex data from qualitative research. Creswell (2012:

129) assume that the main component of research questions and objectives in

qualitative research are the main phenomena explored in qualitative research. For

example, as a concept in the form of speaking style in Indonesian and Madurese

language as the process. in other cases the process of interaction in daily life in the

scope of education takes into account the use of students' words and expressions

in their conversations. Ary (2010: 481) states that qualitative research is data

analysis is a process that takes time because researchers must understand elements

such as field notes, interview transcripts, recordings, information from documents.

All results of the data must be interpreted and examined. Qualitatively, data

analysis is often carried out together with data collection through this repetitive

process. Different from quantitative research where the writing of the report does

not occur in the same steps.

Data is taken from the recording of the sounds of Indonesian students,

especially groups and also communities within the scope of senior high school.

The researcher listens to conversations within a group as well as communities and

transcribe conversations. After that the author listens and understands


32

conversations from students that contain swear words. After the author gets swear

words, the world in transcribed. This data collection is done by underlining swear

words. After getting the data, the author starts analyzing. The first is, researcher

classify conversations that contain swear words for various types of swear words

and provide a description of those words. After that begin to explain each

conversation that has been classified. The researcher listens to the conversation in

making conclusions from the complete analysis and explain it. For different types

of swear words and reasons for swearing. After that begin to explain each

conversation that has been classified. Then, the author makes conclusions from

the completed analysis.

3.4.1 Coding the data

The coding system in this observation is used to facilitate specific

behaviors that have been determined before the research [ CITATION

Don10 \l 1057 ]. The researcher not only identifies whether phenomena of

student behavior occur as with the theory because this use agreed upon

codes to record actual events. While the results scale can be completed

after the observation period and the coding is completed when the

observer sees the behavior. This analysis is strengthened by Creswell

(2012: 261) says that the main analysis of qualitative data consists of

encoding data. This analysis process is one of reducing text or image

databases to descriptions and themes of people, places, or events. This

involves checking the text database line by line, asking yourself what the
33

participant said, and then labeling the code. Here is the data that is

attached using the code:

Types Coding
Coding
Sex S
Death D
Excretion E
Bodily function Bf
Religious matters Rm
Politics P
Mother-in-law Min
Types
Animals a
Nickname n
Rude comment rc
Joke j
Sex talk st
Anger a
Habitual epithets he

3.4.2 Reducing the data

In this data processing process, qualitatively data collection is often

carried out simultaneously with data analysis. Therefore, in the reduction

of the important data taken and the non-important data discarded. After

that the researcher prefers to analyze the results of the data and focus on

the data to be taken [ CITATION Don10 \l 1057 ].

3.4.3 Presenting the data

The mean of presenting the data is presenting detailed

observations. In this study the researcher described the relationship


34

between events and objects. In qualitative reports, it is present in

accordance with the delivery of thoughts, feelings of objects, and

experiences in their own words. After receiving data, the researcher

analyzes the results of the data obtained [ CITATION Don10 \l 1057 ].

3.4.4 Drawing conclusion

In this research, conclusions in the drawing are to determine a

number of samples available. This study selected several samples

needed. Researchers tend to interpret the observations obtained from

research conducted as he goes along. Collecting this data through

observation and field notes [ CITATION Don10 \l 1057 ].

CHAPTER IV

RESEARCH FINDINGS AND DISCUSSION

This chapter presents data analysis and research findings. This chapter

describes the results of the research. It discusses the swear words. There are three

main findings, it covers; (1) the types of swear words based on gender, (2) the

students swear words based on the gender, (3) the forms of swear word used by

the students, and (4) the swear words function to their communication.

4.1 Research Findings

In this part, explain of the findings is divided on the statement of the

problems in Chapter I, those are: what types of swear word, what swear word are

used by students based on the gender, what forms of swear word and expression

are used by students, and swear word have a function to student’s communication

of SMAN 4 BANGKALAN especially the 11 th grade IPS3. The data of this

research are then matched with Wardhaugh’s list of swear words and Jay’s list of

taboo words.

4.1.1 The Types of Swear Word Based on Gender

In this part, gender differences in swear words here after SW are

used by students at SMAN 4 BANGKALAN in XIth grade IPS3, which the

amounts was twenty five students consisting of fifteen male students and

ten female students. It was found that the use of SW in men and women

chose words that were different in expressing their speech or language.

The matching data by Wardhaugh’s list of SW (2006) and Jay’s list of


37

taboo words (2009) that divided under the label 'men' and 'women' to see if

there are differences between the SW spoken by male and female of

students. from observations in the form of questionnaires, researcher found

that gender has the possibility to choose different words in expressing their

words. In this section, researcher have classified words that are sweat

words based on the gender. The findings shown in the following table.

Table 4.1.1 Types of Swear Words Based on The Gender

No. Swear Words Male Female


1 Sex  
2 Death  
3 Excretion  
4 Bodily functions  
5 Religious matters  
6 Politics  
7 Mother-in-law  
8 Animals  
9 Left hand - -
10 Nickname  
11 Rude comment  

As explained in Chapter 2, there are eleven types of swear words.

This research focuses on words and expressions used by students based on

gender. Based on the results of the research findings found ten types of

swear words. It covers: 1) gender, 2) death, 3) excretion, 4) bodily

functions, 5) religious issues, 6) politics, 7) mother-in-law, 8) animals, 9)

nicknames and 10) rude comments (see Wardhaugh, 2006; Jay, 2009). As

for the taboo words said by Jay's list, continue the list of SW types from

wardhaugh. The following is based on existing data analyzed for this type.
38

The results of this data analysis serve as a start for the next form and

function.

In more detailed, any findings associated with the kinds of swear

words those are described in the following discussions.

1. Sex

Sex occurs in sexual activity and refers to couples who have sex,

this word is usually used as a SW for partners or sex of the opposite sex.

Researchers took data from questionnaires which showed that men had

used more words for sex than women. Based on the calculation of the

questionnaire, there were nine men and five women who used sex-related

invective words.

2. Death

Death refers to the second column used by fourteen men and seven

women based on the questionnaire. men say more swear words that lead to

death than women. This SW is an expression of words that make other

people afraid and feel threatened by something or this is more often used

to express hatred. based on the results of data in the form of recordings and

field notes taken, researchers did not find the conversation of women who

say 'death'. Researchers get data from questionaire and found the result

which includes fourteen men ever use it and seven female for ever said

about ‘death’.

3. Excretion
39

Excretion occurs in expressions that insult and annoy others. Based

on the questionnaires, this type of SW is used by fourteen male students

and six female students. This data can be obtained from class during

observations when students of class XI IPS3 did terrace ‘male’ and math

tasks ‘female’.

4. Bodily function

Bodily function that is used for students who understand body parts

which are a kind of SW. This type of swear word are spoken by men and

occur during recess at the place of selling meatballs. Based on the

questionnaires data there were fourteen men and seven women who used

the type SW 'bodily function'.

5. Religious matters

Based on the table above swear words have complex functions for the

reason they use them to vent various conditions. The results show that the reason

people use swear words depends on the speaker's circumstances such as the

pressure applied. In this case the pressure defines the function of using SW in

student communication which includes various expressions. based on data that has

been taken shows that swear words can make self-satisfaction, used as identity

and characteristics in several groups. Usually students who use these words swear

by using them as their daily communication. Therefore, these swear words can be

used with pronunciation to express increased emotion without direct physical


77

violence. The findings of this data were confirmed by the results of interviews as

transcript interview (TI) based on three men and three women.

The same thing with men's answers. women also assume that the swear
word is a form of words that is considered to vent their anger. In this case, the
swear word is used to express self-expression. In addition, observations show that
there are several functions of the swear word.

4.2 Discussion

This section, discusses the findings of swear words based on the gender,

forms of SW, and function for communication. The findings related to the swear

words used by Indonesian students especially in SMAN 4 BANGKALAN at XI th

graders IPS.

4.2.1 The Types of Swear Words Based on The Gender

The researcher classified the finding of swear words used by students

male and female in clas XIth IPS3 based on specific information. It was

about kinds of swear words. The first, discussed the kinds of swear words

based on gender. this section is related to the theory in chapter two, the

researcher matched the type of SW from Wardhaugh and Jay. The

identified the following kinds: 1) sex, 2) death, 3) excretion, 4) bodily

functions, 5) religious matters, 6) politics, 7) mother-in-law, 8) animals, 9)

left hand, 10) nickname and 11) rude comment. From the kinds of swear

words based on the research findings, swear words based on Wardhaugh

(2006) list are left hand, this term comes from western culture which
79

shows the middle finger to give the SW and challenge someone to fight.

Based on the data taken from the results of observations in the form of

field notes, recordings, interviews, and questionnaires to students no one

uses this word.

In these kinds of swear words, these words are included in student

conversations that lead to internal pressure. What happens in student

conversations is clearly explained. Wardhaugh (2006) and Jay (2009) state

that the type of swear word is based on student conversation at XI th IPS3

Swear words in a group used by students occur in class XI IPS3 using their

native language 'Madurese and Indonesian language' which the type of

swear words based on Wardhaugh (2006) and Jay (2009). The use of

swear words occurs in certain situations with a purpose and meaning based

on the words and expressions used. In this case the use of swear words

based on gender has distinctive characteristics in their use.

Guvendir (2015) states that men are stronger than women when

using invective words. Furthermore, men are considered more aggressive

in behavior. In the use of invective words spoken by high school students,

researchers pay attention to the words and expressions they use. Women

use more words when they are in a group themselves, while men have the

potential to use invective words wherever they are. This is related to the

statement of Holmes (2008) that women are more feminine and masculine

men. This shows that women are gentle and can maintain their attitude

when talking to other people. Women also often speak used pragmatics, in
80

contrast to men who are more to the point. The invective word used by

students is the insertion of words from a sentence that has different

meanings in their use. The type of invective words applied by students to

convey expressions conveyed to the interlocutors each of which has a form

and function in its use.

4.2.2 The Students Swear Words Based on The Gender

The next discussion is about the forms of swear words used the

Indonesian students in Madura at SMAN 4 BANGKALAN, XI th social

three. From the finding that the forms of distribution questionnaires and

classified from the same swear word used by the gender. This data based

on the students in the class area of XIth IPS3 and canteen related to the

Jancok, Bangsat/Bengkes, Gileh/Gila, Taeh/Mancok, Cetakkeh,

Dut/Lempo/Rajeh, Congorrah/Bibir/Caca/Colok, Setan, Patek/Anjing,

Cong, Mad, Nyenget , Cerreng/Cempreng, Alay/Lebay. These Swear

words of taken from the kind of same pronounciation of swear words

based on the theories of Wardhaugh (2006) and Jay (2009). From each of

the swear words used by students related to a more detailed explanation of

the types of use of SW to Senior High School.

Based on the results of the study, the form of swear words in

women's pronunciation is more dominant, the word SW is repeated in

student conversations based on gender. This is because women talk more.

different from the dominant man who is lazy to beat around the bush.

Based on the swear word calculation that appears on gender jancok


81

pronunciation appears once in the pronunciation of women and once in the

pronunciation of men. Bangsat/Bengkes that men and women each agree

with the swear word once, Gileh/Gila there is one male pronunciation and

nine times a female pronunciation , Taeh/Mancok there are eleven times

the form of this word is spoken by men and twenty-six times spoken by

women, Cetakkeh shows that the result form of words is pronounced by

men and women with the same amount which is twice the pronunciation,

Dut/Lempo/Rajeh is a word that is said five times by men and three times

by women, Congorrah/Bibir/Caca/Colok is a form of words that are often

spoken by women because they say it fourteen times while men only once,

Setan spoken three times by men and twice by women. men say this form

of word is stronger than women, Patek/Anjing is the word also appears

more often in the pronunciation of women twenty-seven times while men

only five times , Cong is the word appears more often in the pronunciation

of women forty-two times while men are nineteen times. this is because

men are rarely in the class, Mad appears seven times in male pronunciation

and only three times in female pronunciation., Nyenget is a form of word

that are two spoken by male and three spoken by female,

Cerreng/Cempreng appears once spoken by men and four times spoken by

women, Alay/Lebay is the word also appears two times said male and once

said by female.
82

4.2.3 The Forms Used by Students

Menta jata and Jancok are curse words based on the type of 'sex'.

In conversation students show that the word menta jata is included in

swear words and is considered taboo because these words should not be

said. this word is considered common among students used for the correct

context because this discussion is carried out in women's groups that lead

to repetition of stories. While jancok from Javanese, which means

intercourse Putra, (2012). This form of swear word is the same as Madura,

namely ancok which has the same meaning. students use this word form

based on context, different from the word jancok which shows an

expression of hatred towards his friend. Of these two words, they discuss

the same type and different contexts. The context is analyzed based on the

words and expressions of the user.

Mateyah is a form of word that refers to the type of 'death'. based

on the statement Wardhaugh (2006) explains that the word oath is used to

scare others and threaten the intended person. Students use this word are

angry and do not like the attitude of their friends. This word comes out

when the speaker wants the intruder to go and thinks he doesn't want to see

it anymore because the speaker feels they are bullies who don't deserve to

be in that area. this presumption and situation show that speakers have the

potential to show more anger when the expression of previous anger is out

of control.
83

Bangsat/bengkes, kurang ajar, mengkhianati, gileh/gila,

taeh/mancok, dan gendeng, those are forms of the 'excretion' type of words

which lead to an expression in the form of disturbances and insults

experienced by someone. In the context, students use this word in various

situations. From the classification that has been done students use this

word when they experience a disturbance from someone else. When

students accept the disturbance, they issue this form of invective words.

This word is commonly used by students to express their frustration.

Holmes, (2008: 157) argued that differences in the use of swear word in

this type based on gender that in their use women are more polite than

men. This theory is corroborated by Sumarsono, (2012: 102) state that

male voice volume is relatively greater than that of female. Therefore

women have softer voices than men’s voices.

Pokeh, sosoh, selangkangan, pala’, tongkeng, cetakkeh, dut

/lempo/rajeh, semok, kurus/koros, congor/bibir/caca/colok, matanah,

poking, burik that word form that refers to the type of word' bodily

function'. This word is said by students in some circumstances depending

on the context in question. From the results of the data that have been used

to comment, topics in discussions, insults, jokes, and expressions of

hatred. Swear words used in various words and circumstances are

expressions of attitude based on certain expressions.

Setan is a taboo word form that can be a swear word because of

different usage functions. This word is a type of "religious problem"


84

because it contains mystical and frightening elements. in their use students

use this word to express their increased emotions and only as a topic for

their jokes. the words used by students are rarely used because the

situation is not right so students almost never use this word form in the

scope of the school or class.

Aneh is an example of the word form of type 'mother-in-law'. This

word is usually used in the scope of insult and disturbance to parents. As

for the word guru aneh self-batten which is an example of the form of

invective words that belong to the type ‘mother-in-law ' There are just one

students use it.

Patek/anjing, and cerek is a form of invective words that refer to

type ‘animals. The use of this taboo word is a word that can be used as an

invective word because it can lead to an insult to others. Students use this

word in various situations and conditions such as anger and joking

according to the context. This word is a word commonly used by students

of class XI IPS3 at SMAN 4 BANGKALAN. The selection of animal

names as invective words is usually seen from the type of animal and is

related to human behavior.

Cong, teh, cok, mad, uhuy, gedeng included in the 'nickname' type.

Jay (2009) states that this called name is something commonly used by

students but not every day. Usually this nickname will be used by students

according to the context of the interlocutor. The student gives a friend a


85

nickname suddenly. This nickname can contain insulting words to other

people as jokes.

Nyenget and a nyeng gleknyeng, nganyeng, a kotangan,

cempreng/cerreng, kang tekang, mokong, alay/lebay, nungging, sombong

leads to the type of swear words ‘rude comments. This form of word is

used against people who are not liked about giving comments. Students

use this word when they don't like someone's attitude and then give rude

comments about someone they don't like.

Based on the form of swear words that have been adjusted to the

type of each shows that students in their use have different contexts and

objectives in expressing swear words. In this case male and female

students have certain characteristics in using swear words as explained in

chapter 2. In theory Wahyuningsih (2018: 79) argues that women in their

narratives are softer and expressive to show their feelings caused by

psychological and emotional upsurge. Quite similar to Holmes (2008: 157)

that gender in distinguishing between male and female characteristics that

emphasize masculine male and feminine female. This shows that women

are tender in their speech act than men who have a greater volume tan

women (Sumarsono, 2012).

4.2.4 The Swear Words Function to Students Communications

The last discussed about the function, from the results of research

in the form of field observation exposing the function of the used swear
86

words based on students related to the words and expressions their used. It

covers, joke, rude comment, sex talk, anger, nickname, and habitual

epithets.

In joke, researchers focus on the words and expressions students

used on their communication. During conducting research at school,

researchers found a function based on the purpose of students using

invective words that were made into a joke. Jay (2009) says that explained

that taboo words come from the interaction of someone in their

environment. This word is formed from the results of socialization in

society through conversations in certain groups so as to create oral

knowledge that contains its own meaning. He also explained that this

invective word was formed by itself and used in certain circumstances. In

a community especially students in the scope of the school the use of SW

often appears. They use it with a variety of different word forms and goals.

One function of invective words in their communication is to form a

humor and familiarity from several individuals to others. This states that

this invective word is a use based on its function so that this SW is

considered valid in the conversation used by students because its purpose

is clear and does not violate the rules. Based on the research findings there

are thirteen times spoken by male and thirty-one time is spoken by female.

In rude comments, swear words are included in taboo words, used

by someone to judge others. Jay (2009: 154) states that it is a type of word

that insults someone. In its context students use these words when they
87

feel they don't like others. The calculation shows that six times spoken by

male and twenty-four spoken times by female. They will assume that the

people they see are very annoying and students have the potential to put

out a harsh word in the form of comments.

In sex talk, is a dirty and rude word that can be interpreted in some

attitudes adapted to certain situations and contexts. There were once men

and twice by female use it. This word is a taboo word which is prohibited

in its use. This word is permitted if spoken according to their needs. The

function of talking about sex is to express feelings that are passionate

about a partner. Another function in talking about sex is to simply share

information from a particular topic. In its context students use this word to

share information with same-sex about matters related to sex.

In anger, leads to feeling pressure arising from a non-physical

impulse. This is an emotional increase in the speaker's words and

expressions in a state of irritation and uncontrollable. Disclosure of this

word serves as an emotional overload for other people so that the speaker

feels relieved. Another function in using 'anger' is to express themselves so

that all resentment is released. In the classification of students when angry,

they use more invective words that are shown to their friends. When

expressing themselves, they produce many types of taboo invective words

that make others feel disturbed. Based on the results of field note there

were fourteen times spoken by male and fourty-one times spoken by


88

female. This anger has the function of expressing itself non-physical, this

expression only through narrative and expression.

In nickname, based on the interaction and communication used by

students in the scope of the school, the use of this nickname works in two

ways, that is, it can be in the direction of familiarity and can be directed

towards humiliation. The use of this nickname is a nickname of their real

name given by someone else. Based on the results of eleven times used by

male and four times spoken by female. Not everyone always uses

nicknames in their daily lives because based on the expressions and words

used by students at school, they assume that this nickname is not needed in

a conversation. This word usually functions as a disclosure of insults such

as giving a nickname 'cong' which leads to a large body shape. The next

function of using this word is to show anger by giving them a bad

nickname. Students also use this nickname as a joke by tucking this word

into their conversation.

In habitual epithets, given a habitual epithets by changing this

original name serves as familiarity within a group. This called name

becomes a habit that is used by students in all circumstances such as being

joked, angry, even occasionally they will use certain nicknames to discuss

simple topics. The use of habitual epithets based on students is what they

used to use in everyday life in the scope of the school because there they

met their peers. The use of this habitual epithets functions as a bond of

intimacy in an interaction. To give a positive impression and recognition


89

from others so that those who use this nickname feel comfortable in

communicating, this is indicated by the expressions and words they use.

The called of this habit is considered taboo by people who do not

understand the meaning of the nickname, for some circumstances and

which has become a habit of giving habitual epithets considered to have

many functions. Based on the field note during observation this function

are the spoken twelve times by male and seventeen times by female.

Researcher analyze data from the functions of swear words used by

students in their communication. Based on the results of interviews which

relatively have the same meaning shows that swear words function as

expressions of frustration and pressure that comes out.

This shows that expressions are used by men and women to

communicate with emphasis on emotions. Similarity, Jay (2009: 155)

argues that this type of taboo in the use of vows is for emotional. While the

disclosure shows the state of one's feelings. The conclusion is a function of

swear words to express themselves to feel relieved.
