"pantun" meaning in Malay

See pantun in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Forms: ڤنتون [Jawi], pantun-pantun [plural], pantunku [first-person, informal, possessive], pantunmu [possessive, second-person], pantunnya [possessive, third-person]
Rhymes: -un Etymology: 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.
