Abstract

A pair of a word can have similar denotative meanings but it does not mean their meaning are identically the same. In a certain tendency, such as emotion, technique, or situation, they are possibly different. So, the meaning can be different. The type of difference is called connotative meaning.  The understanding of connotative meaning is remarkable since choosing inappropriate words leads to ineffective communication. This study examines the connotative meaning of words in Lampungnese, a language that has contact with other languages in a culturally diverse region, Lampung province. By this study, Lampungnese speakers, both native and non-native can choose the word accurately to then effective communication can be achieved. In this study, data were taken from a direct observation of Lampungnese natural interaction among the natives by the researcher. Next, the researcher applied interviews with twenty 50 years old Lampungnese natives to find out the specific tendency of each datum. After that, a natural social experiment is conducted to reach the respond of Lampungnese while listening to the word given so then the finding will be more accurate. From the efforts mentioned, it was found some pairs of words are denotatively the same and connotatively different. As additional information, they exist in various contexts of communication, such as intelligent quality, feeling, situation, politeness, and activities.

Abstract

The study of politeness strategy in various cultures needs to be explored more since contact among the communities cannot be avoided today while each culture has its standard of the point. Thus, analyses of the discussion are urgently important to be conducted to present theories of politeness so then people can understand, adapt or apply others' strategies when the context is changed to avoid conflict; misinterpretation, and culture shock between speakers. For this reason, this research analyzed the politeness strategy of Lampungnese, a local ethnicity in Lampung province, a transmigrated target area that has multiple ethnicities whom they contact. Next, the data of this research were a recording of natural communication collected by direct observation in the community and a list of Lampungnese values of politeness obtained by interviews with Lampungnese scholars and culturalists. Having abundant data, a comprehensive analysis was qualitatively done by the researcher in order to answer the research question, what are Lampungnese politeness strategies? Finally, it was reached seven strategies based on the result of the analysis. In accordance, five of them are common strategies as Leech (2014) proposed in his theory, while the rest are local strategies that are possibly not found in other ethnicities.
