“…Therefore, this study tries to fill in the gaps of previous research. This is possible because the location, object, and scope of this research are different from previous studies (Barus, 2018); (Sunandar et al, 2018); (Junaidi & Wardani, 2019).…”

“…On the other hand, research from Sunandar (2018) about taboos in the Bekaeh Dayak language is classified into several groups, namely the taboo on parents' names, taboo on the name of relatives, taboo on the name of the deceased, taboo on animal names, taboo on certain words, and taboo on sexual activity. It seems that Sunandar's research ( 2018) is similar to taboo research in the Acehnese language, only the difference is that Sunandar's research (2018) classified taboos more, namely taboos related to professions, taboos on bodily functions, taboos on mentioning spirits, taboos based on objects and circumstances, taboos the name of the disease, the taboo on asking activities, and the taboo on people's names referring to animals (Sunandar et al, 2018).…”

“…For example, the prohibition of mentioning sexual activity, animal names, and spirits. On the other hand, research results of Barus (2018); Sunandar (2018); and Junaidi (2019) also stated that taboo languages are actually functioned to educate, maintain good relations, and create peace by choosing the right language. Therefore, this study tries to fill in the gaps of previous research.…”
