Abstract

The Sasak people recognize the concept of gender deixis in the sociocultural context of daily life. In daily interactions, the Sasak people need gender deixis in the context of kinship life, traditional life such as traditional rituals, and matters related to their livelihoods. The purpose of this study is to describe the form and meaning of gender deixis in the Sasak language in the sociocultural context of the life of the Sasak people in the context of their traditional traditions and livelihoods. The theory used in this research is the theory of McConnell-Ginet (1987) which reveals that in the lingual elements of language there is a realization of a gender perspective which shows and is embedded in the elements of self-concept, perception and outlook on life of men and women. This study uses a qualitative method with structured and unstructured participatory observation techniques, in-depth interviews with informants. The results of this study indicate that in the context of the socio-cultural life of the community, especially in traditional rituals and livelihoods, it is full of gender deixis which is realized in its lingual forms. Meaningfully, the lingual forms of gender deixis in the Sasak language refer to the sociocultural concepts and perspectives of men and women in Sasak society which reflect on the principles of kinship and respect, responsibility, deliberation and consensus and romanticism, strength and refinement.
