Etymology

[edit]

According to Za'aba, the word is thought to evolve from the Malay word sepantun (Jawi: سڤنتون) meaning 'same as'.[1][2]

Anther theory suggests that the word originated from penuntun (guider),[3][4] from noun-building prefix peng- and the verb tuntun (to guide).[5] Alternatively, Brandstetter suggested that the word originates from Malay tun and its similar sounding variants in Austronesian languages, with multiple meanings; Kapampangan tuntun (well organized), Tagalog tonton (skillful arrangement), Old Javanese tuntun (thread), atuntun (well arranged), matuntun (to lead), and Toba Batak pantun (polite; worthy of respect). Winstedt supported this opinion, noting that in many Austronesian languages, words which suggest 'something set out in rows' gradually gain the new meaning of 'well-arranged words', in prose or in poetry.[6] Ari Welianto suggested that the word is originated from Minangkabau patuntun (guide).[7] Compare with Acehnese pantôn.
