- Abstract
This article aims at describing the co-occurrence use of animals and its representation found in Indonesian proverbs. By using Indonesian proverb collection book as the main source of data, it is found that the co-occurrence can be between or among animals of belonging to the same as well as different species. There are no significant differences between the two types of combination. Both combinations will be between or among animals of having different physical size, characteristics (behavior, skin motive, tusk, sound, etc.), predator and its prey, habitue and habitat, competing animals, and animal and its fodder. Generally, the representation will follow natural rules. However, for giving advice to the speech community members for always be careful and not arrogant because the natural rules can change the other way around unpredictably, the language speakers also create proverbs that describe these realities.
