The Different Types of Words Meaning in Minangkabau Proverbs: A Stylistics Approach

Language is the ability possessed by humans to communicate with other humans using signs, such as words and movements. Scientific studies of language are called linguistics. It is estimated of the number of languages in the world vary between 6,000 -7,000. Because of its diverse types too, language has become an important means of connecting between human beings. Therefore, language can be said to be mandatory and important in terms of communication. According to Kazeem (2020) Language is an integral part of culture, a reflection of many features of a given culture. Thus, like culture itself, language is a learned behaviour, which can be enhanced through direct or indirect contact. As a dynamic element, language is always analyzed and studied with various approaches, among others through the meaning approach, while semantics is a component of language that cannot be released in linguistic speech. Without discussing the meaning, the discussion of linguistics has not been considered complete because the act of language is actually nothing but trying to convey the meanings. Speeches that are meaningless have no meaning at all (Parera, 2004: 17). Giving new meaning to what has been experienced or will be experienced in a way that is more than habitual, may make us realize that this is what the poet or novelist is meant to be in certain parts of which we have not yet fully understood (Srinarwati, 2018). Meaning is denotation, while meaning is connotation. Sometimes Abstract

"meaning" is in harmony with "meaning" and sometimes not in harmony. If the meaning of something is the same as the meaning of something, then the meaning is called the Meaning of the Barrel (Explicit Meaning). If the meaning is not in harmony with the "meaning", then something is called having the meaning of the content (Implicit Meaning) or the Meaning of Prevalent (Necessary Meaning).
Meaning is the relationship between form and reference. In general linguistics assumed that must have a list of all the words in the language. So as a language observer must be able to interpret the words correctly in accordance with the context of each sentence.The way of writing an utterance in the language can create the varieties of language and values of art. The style of particular option used by person and social group in their use of language could give a specific stylistic in the use of language. Stylistic is applied to restate the impressionism and subjectively of standard language with a scientific objective analysis of literary text. It can state different taste of thought in writing and various expression of a text. stylistic applies linguistic features, norms and way of expression. It also has the characteristics of particular verbal in text.
In order to finish the study, the researcher used five articles from previous studies to help analyzing the data. The articles are (1)

Stylistic Devices
Stylistic devices based on different types of word meaning is a part of lexicophraseological stylistic devices. stylistic devices based on different types of word meaning has three types of word meaning: 1) stylistic devices based on the interaction of lexical and contextual meaning, 2) stylistic devices based on the interrelation of denotation and emotional meaning, and 3) stylistic devices based on interaction of principal and secondary (including figurative) meaning. (Lethsalu, Liiv, & Mut, 1973).
a. The first types of stylistics devices based on the interaction of lexical and contextual meaning consist of metaphor, metonymy, antonomasia, and irony. 1. Metaphor (Gr. Meta 'change' and phor 'bear') is replace a word with another word which draws a comparison based on similarity of the meaning between two different things. The function of metaphor is to denoting an object and give some expressive characteristics. Thus a metaphor can be considered as a disguised comparison, a foolish person, for example, is referred to as an ass, a spiteful woman may be called a cat, etc. 2. Metonymy (Gr. Metonymy 'changing of name') is a transfer of meaning based upon the association of contiguity. It means that metonymy is a figure of speech which draws a thing with other thing which is a unity of a word itself. The use of metonymy is influenced by culture which means not all words used can be universally understood. For instance, mini 4D changed with Tamiya, mineral water changed to be Aqua, Cigarette changed to 3. be Gudang Garam (one of the types of cigarette), etc. There is another figure of speech that related to metonymy and often included under it, Synecdoche. Synecdoche (Gr. Synecdoche 'receiving together), a figure of speech by which a part is used for a whole or a whole for a part, the singular for the plural or the plural for the singular, the special for the general or vice versa. 4. Antonomasia has a close relationship with metaphors and metonymy. Similar to metonymy, antonomasia uses right name to express a general idea or the nickname change to the right name. The difference with metonymy, antonomasia can be recognized in general without having to know the culture or background of a country or place. The use of this antonomasia is replaced by a common name or general thing that all corners of the world understand (universally understood) e.g. When it becomes necessary to kick John Bull out of America, Mr. Washington stepped forward, and performed that job with satisfaction; (Thackeray, BS) (John Bull = the English people or the typical Englishman); It satisfied the police and Mrs. Grundy; (Galsworthy, B) (Mrs. Grundy = society in regard to its censorship of personal conduct). Names taken from ancient history, mythology or the Bible are also frequent, e.g. With only a stepmother -closely related to Jezebel; (Galsworthy, L) (Jezebel = the wife of Ahab, king of Israel, notorious for her conduct); Tripping airily into its office, she laid a scrap of paper before a lovely Hebe who was typing there; (Coppard, FF) (Hebe = in Greek mythology the goddess of youth and spring) 5. Irony (Gr. Eironeia 'simulated') is a figure of speech in which the literal meaning of the lexical unit is the opposite of the truth. So, the utterance is different from the intended. Irony draws a negative situation with a positive response or reaction, e.g. when a man laughs when others are in bad luck, or when someone laughs at himself when having bad luck, and the butter is as soft as a slab of marble. The word "as soft as" is the irony, positive response to describe the bad butter.
b. Stylistics devices based on the interrelation of denotation and emotional meaning as the second types of stylistics devices based on different types of word meaning consist of epithet, oxymoron, hyperbole, and meiosis 1. Epithet (Gr. epitheton 'addition') is a figure of speech which shows a permanent or temporary quality of person, thing, idea or phenomenon in subjective perception as the point of view in characterizing it. An epithet has always an emotional meaning which accompany the denotation meaning or it may exist independently or connotation. Epithets established in the language are often based on a permanent feature or a notion. Wordcombinations like 'true love *. * green wood*, * merry maid', 'lady gay', 'merry old England 'bonny ship'. etc., and frequent in popular ballads or their imitations, e.g. Since my true love has forsaken me, Marti'mas wind, when wilt thou blaw And shake the green leaves aff the tree? (WalyWaly) 2. Oxymoron (Gr. Oxys 'sharp' + moron 'stupid') is a figure of speech that combines the use of an epithet or attributive phrases that is contradictory with one another. In short, oxymoron is a contradiction in terms. An oxymoron is used to provide figurative characterization of ideas and reveal the intricate nature of the mind. And serves to show the permanent or temporary features of an idea e.g. it was with an almost cruel joy and perhaps in nearly every joy, as certainly in every pleasure cruelty has its place -that he used to read the latter part of the book; (Wilde, PDG), with a purely emotional meaning, such as 'it's awfully nice of you', 'I'm terribly glad', etc. Sometimes it is not the attribute that changes its meaning in an oxymoron, but the head-noun, e.g. In Norman's brain there was a silent scream of triumph; (Steinbeck, WB).
3. Hyperbole (Gr. Hyper 'beyond' + balle in 'to throw') is a redundant transfer of meaning that is not meant to be taken literally. It means, hyperbole is used to strengthen an impression by exaggerating. The purpose of hyperbole is to show the expression of the speaker's emotional attitude towards the thing being discussed. Hyperbole level is based on the interaction of emotional meaning and the meaning of a word. However, not every exaggeration can be considered a stylistics device. The results of hyperbole that exaggerate often make sentences read or sound funny or do not need to be taken seriously, "big deal", or so on. It causes hyperbole as rhetorical devices, e.g. "Haven't seen you for ages!" (Galsworthy, Ch) "I'm dying to see what my second one is,*' cried Gudrun, (Lawrence, WL); (Cronin, C) My mother was shocked to the marrow of her bones by the thought that I should become for years what seemed to her nothing but a manual worker. Hyperbole is of very common occurrence in poetry, e.g. Dissolve, thick cloud, and rain; that I say.
The gods themselves do weep! (Shakespeare, AC) 4. Meiosis (Gr. meiõsis (meioõ 'lessen' f. meion 'less')) or understatement is a statement which is not representing with completeness all the aspects of the case. In other words, Meiosis is a figure of speech that minimizes the importance of something through euphemism. Meiosis is an attempt to underestimate the significance or size of an unpleasant thing, although not all examples of meiosis refer to something negative, e.g. imperial fiddlestick!" said the King, rubbing his nose, which had been hurt by the fall. He had a right to be a little annoyed with the Queen, for he was covered with ashes from head to foot; (Carroll, TLG) They would not remember the simple rules their friends had taught them that ... a red-hot poker will burn you if you hold it too Ions; and that if you cut your finger very deeply with a knife, it usually bleeds; and she had never forgotten that if you drink too ä much from a bottle marked 'poison', it is almost certain to disagree with you sooner or later. (Carroll, AAWL) c. And based on different types of meaning, stylistic devices based on interaction of principal and secondary (including figurative) meaning is the last types which has zeugma as the one and only of the body 1. Zeugma (Gr. zeugnunai 'to yoke, join') is a figure of speech based on the interaction of different denotation meanings. Zeugma uses the illogical word and ungrammatical in the structure of the second syntactic construction. The effect is rise the complex sentence (the sentence feels confused). For instance, I need to tell you, my grandmother is a friendly and angry person.

Proverb

V. Conclusion
After having the calculated data of this research, the result can be shown in this following diagram From the results of this study, there are several different types of word meaning in Minangkabau Proverbs found namely Metaphor 68% , Metonymy 6%, Irony 8%, Epithet 2%, Hyperbole 6 %, and Zuegma 10 %. However, the use of metaphors in the Minangkabau proverb was the most. This relates to the habits of the Minangkabau people who always use decorated language that uses nature as its object. The elements or objects related to nature are always used in the Minangkabau proverb to indicate the nature, characteristics or conditions of something. This is also closely related to the philosophical principle of the Minangkabau people that "Alam takambang manjadi guru." From nature, Minangkabau people learn about life, the process of something becoming something better, the function of how life really is and the usefulness of something to the Minangkabau community and the interaction of people and nature in the Minangkabau community. The use of Minangkabau proverbs of metaphors, this is also influenced by the customs of the Minangkabau people who must uphold good attitudes and treatment called Attitude in communication. Because of Attitude in socializing and communicating is very important to keep up harmonious relationships each other. Attitude in communication that always smooths the language used in a way of decorating, so that many Minangkabau proverbs have a figurative connotation of something. This is also to smooth the language itself so that others are respectful and the language is beautiful and pleasant to hear that can give good interaction between fellows of Minangkabau people in order to let the harmony occur in communication.
