“…(3) in the theory of Natural Semantic Metalanguage the explication of meaning is framed in a metalanguage that originates from natural language. This explication can be understood by all native speakers of the language concerned (Swarniti, 2021;Acquaviva 2022). Natural Semantic Metalanguage examines the smallest components of each language, which consists of 65 semantic primes and more than 50 semantic molecules that are universal (Goddard and Wierzbicka, 2014).…”

The study of regional languages is a critical component of a nation's cultural and linguistic heritage. As such, it is imperative to conduct in-depth research into the meanings and nuances of regional languages. In this study, the Bima language (ngahi mbojo), which belongs to the Bima-Sumba language family and is widely spoken in the Bima and Dompu districts, was examined to map and explicate verbs with the concept of 'lean'. To gather the necessary data, oral and written sources were used, including storybooks in the Bima language. The research methodology utilized a combination of interviews and literature review, while the verification method was employed to collect and analyze the data. The method, which involves the alteration of form and the use of paraphrasing techniques, was utilized to determine the original meaning of the verb and its explication, resulting in 65 points of analysis. The study revealed that Bima language verbs with 'lean' can be mapped to entities, processes, tools, and results. Specifically, the lexicon used to express the concept of 'leaning' includes maru (sleeping), santengi (leaning), doho (sitting), oko (squatting), kidi (standing), and tu'u (getting up).

“…Being an area that is visited by many people from other regions and even foreign countries, Balinese culture is heavily influenced by foreign culture, including its language (Giri, 2017;Putri & Nurita, 2021). This is further strengthened by statement of previous study which states that the Balinese language as an ethnic language also has the chance to "die" in 2041 (Swarniti, 2021). In fact, as an area very famous for its culture, Bali must not make its language extinct.…”
