Abstract

Taboo language and euphemism are quite unique and interesting linguistic phenomena to study and examine. Euphemism is the use of euphemistic expressions to replace taboo language. This euphemism grows as a form of need for words, expressions that are considered taboo in society. We also often encounter this euphemism in writing, one of which is a novel. Based on this, the problem described in this study is to examine the formation of euphemisms and the benefits of euphemisms contained in the Putus Layangan Novel by Mommy Asf by using the theory put forward by Sutratman (2017). The focus of the problem in this research examines the science of semantics, one of which is the formation and benefits of euphemisms. The technique used is the Hermeneutic technique. This research uses a descriptive method. The data used in this study are words or phrases that contain euphemisms. Furthermore, the data source used in this study is the entire contents of the Novel Layangan Putus Karya Mommy Asf.: Malang, 2020, the seventh printing consisting of 16 parts and 144 pages. The results of the study showed that there were five formations of euphemisms, namely 5 data of abbreviation used, 19 data of borrowed word euphemism, 25 data of foreign term euphemism, 7 data of metaphor use, and 4 data of euphemism of periphrasis. The form that is most often found by researchers is the euphemism of using foreign terms because, in the novel there are still many sentences containing terms that generally readers do not understand the meaning of these foreign terms.
