Abstract

Sebagai homo socius, manusia menggunakan bahasa untuk berinteraksi (Ilmiyati, 2011, para.7). Ada dua tipe utama variasi dalam bahasa. Pertama berdasarkan pengguna bahasa, sedangkan yang lainnya didasarkan pada penggunaan bahasa. Dalam bidang ini, register merujuk pada variasi bahasa menurut penggunaan bahasa. Di dalam berkomunikasi orang-orang terkadang menggunakan istilah-istilah khusus atau register yang dimengerti oleh komunitas mereka sendiri dan istilah–istilah tersebut justu terkadang menimbulkan perbedaan persepsi bagi orang yang bukan termasuk dalam komunitas. Perbedaan persepsi ini timbul dari faktor-faktor situasional yang berdasarkan medan, sarana, dan pelibat dalam pembicaraan. Salah satu sarana adalah buku atau teks tertulis. Penelitian ini menganalisis register yang digunakan oleh para komunitas prostitusi di dalam buku Surabaya Double Cover Sex in the City disusun oleh para reporter Jawa Poss Press yang telah melakukan interview langsung ke banyak tempat lokalisasi di Surabaya. Ada dua rumusan masalah yang dikemukakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu (1) register apa sajakah yang digunakan oleh para komunitas prostitusi di dalam buku Surabaya Double Cover Sex in the City? dan (2) Bagaimanakah variabel register yang terdapat dalam buku Surabaya Double Cover Sex in the City? Pendekatan kualitatif digunakan agar fenomena yang dianalisis dapat dikaji secara jelas dan sistematis. Ada 15 bab yang diambil dari novel ini, dengan data sebanyak 48 kalimat dalam Bahasa Indonesia. Analisa konten atau dokumen digunakan sebagai jenis penelitian dengan tujuan untuk mengidentifikasi karakteristik tertentu dari subyek penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ada 48 register yang ditemukan di dalam buku Surabaya Double Cover Sex in The City dan faktor-faktor situasional seperti medan, sarana, dan pelibat adalah elemen penentu dalam memahami arti dari register tersebut agar tidak menimbulkan perbedaan persepsi lagi.
