Finding the Truth Behind The Language
Abstract
Finding the truth of the behavior expressed through language is
not easy. It is due to the meaningless expression that the speaker
tends to use. It often appears irrelevant as the first intention was A,
but the meaning then referred to B, C, D or even E. Both spoken
and written languages sometimes do not reflect the actions being
done as in debate, interview, advertisement, and poster, the
content does not match what the speaker tried to deliver. In other
words, the meaning expressed or written is uncertain. Through the
phenomenological research, it is found to be a problematic
language. Through the act of understanding the meaning and its
connection to people in certain situations, they could try to
express a variety of language. Through the observation, interview
and documentation, the data was found as (1) "Although this
movie was produced based on a request, G30S / PKI betrayal film
is not a cheap work. The film has a structured dramatism that
combined the documentary and theatrical aspects. "(2)"
Unrevealing the G30S / PKI Film Controversy in 1965, and 3
Eternal Facts "(3)" Which means that every person is able to talk
about the 1965 incident and to make their own version of the
story” said Seno. The word “order”, “controversy” and “version”
indicated as formal markers that those statements pointed to the
G30S / PKI film which is doubted in term of its value (thematic
domain {Spradley's term}). The data analysis in which
strengthened by the language functions can be used to hide certain
behaviors that someone did. In this context the search for the
ultimate truth hidden behind the language is not sufficiently
supported by oral, written, and drawing / photograph, but it is
important to have people who were as the perpetrators, witnesses,
or victims’ family. This statement is also considered as a criticism
and suggestion to avoid the bias appearedin the language.
