Summary of Deixis by Fatihurrahman


The term deiktikos,  firstly comes from Yunani, means that “thing that directly point out”. Then it has been taken and reformed into an English word as Deixis. In English, The term deixis applies to the use of expressions in which the meaning can be traced directly to features of the act of utterance--when and where it takes place, and who is involved as speaker and as addressee. In their primary meaning, for example, now and here are used deictically to refer respectively to the time and place of the utterance. Similarly, this country is likely to be interpreted deictically as the country in which the utterance takes place.

Deixis means of an expression whose interpretation is relative to the  extralinguistic context of the utterance, such as who is speaking the time or place of speaking, the gestures of the speaker, or the current location in the discourse. Here are examples of deictic expressions: I, You, Now, There, That, The following, Tenses. In the other word, we say it is a word or phrase (such as this, that, these, those, now, then) that points to the time, place, or situation in which the speaker is speaking.Top of Form
The are three types of Deixis, they are: personal deixis, in which related to the pronoun of the speaker whose utterence belong to, or the first person and one for addresessee or we know as the second person. For example, shows below;
Ahmad      : Hari ini saya akan pergi ke Surabaya. Kalau kamu?
Fatih          Saya santai di rumah.
In that examples above, the use of pronoun “SAYA” can belong to both  speakers, the first SAYA refers to Ahmad, and the second refers to Fatih. So, we can infer that the pronoun “SAYA” has reference meaning which depends on the situation and condition when the untterence is used. This call the Deixis, when the pronoun can be used and moved depending on the the situation when and where probably the utterence spoken.
            The words like this and that and here and there belong to a system of spatial deixis. The here/there distinction is also found in pairs of verbs such as come/go and bring/take. . . .for more example:
Ahmad : I will go that city someday, will you go there either?
Fatih    : O.K. I will meet you there.
There is also temporal deixis found in words like now, then, yesterday, and tomorrow, and in phrases such as last month and next year." The use now, tomorrow etc. Do not indicate that the time Now and Tomorrow are used at the same time of the day when the utterence used. For instance, “tomorrow i am going to marry you” this not indicate that tomorrow on June, 2015 the merriage between you and me probably accure. It depends on when the utterence is used by the speakers. There always probability in temporal deixis, the utterence may happend in 1998, 2005 atc. It also has the same case with the use of Now.
