- Abstract
This article studies criticism response in the Javanese Mataram cultural community. Its goal is to understand the forms of response and semantic formulas used to express criticism response. The data was collected through a Discourse Completion Task and questionnaires. The results of the dataanalysis show that criticism response in the Javanese Mataram cultural community can be categorized into three forms: (a) total acceptance, (b) total resistance, and (c) partial resistance/acceptance. However, because the meaning of criticism in the Javanese Mataram cultural community is currently undergoing a process of pejoration, the most common form of response expressed is total resistance. The semantic formulas used to express total resistance may be in the form of (a) disagreement, (b) return of criticism, (c) justification, and (d) seeking evidence. The semantic formulas used to express total acceptance may be in the form of (a) agreement, (b) promise of repair, and (c) asking for advice. The semantic formulas for expressing partial acceptance/resistance usually consist of two different types of semantic formula – agreement and disagreement.
