Abstract

The use of 'cleaning with water' lexeme has high frequency since the outbreak of covid-19 in Indonesia. However, not all lexemes are included in both Javanese and Indonesian dictionary. The result shows that the lexemeconcepts of 'cleaning with water' are amounted to approximately 23 units. The theory in this study is structural semantics with an intentional approach. The meaning components of the lexeme can be seen from six dimensions: ACTOR, MEDIA, OBJECT, GOAL, TOOL, and MEAN. Based on the vertical-horizontal procedure, the set of lexemes can be divided into seven groups. The results of this study are useful for the development of semantic theories of languages in the archipelago and the development of entries as well as their refinement of explanations in dictionary.
