According to Za'aba, the word is thought to evolve from the Malay word sepantun (Jawi: سڤنتون) meaning 'same as'.
Another theory suggests that the word originated from penuntun (“guider”), from noun-building prefix peng- and the verb tuntun (“to guide”). 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. Ari Welianto suggested that the word is originated from Minangkabau patuntun (“guide”). Compare with Acehnese pantôn.
