WHAT DOES SASTERA MEAN IN MALAY?

Literature

Kesusasteraan

Literature refers to artwork delivered through language. In terms of the letter, the literary word means "a collection of beautiful and well-written books." In a broader sense, literature can be meant for all the wonderful pronunciation, whether it is written or not. Literature on its outward form exists in human society through the form of writing and also in oral form. In everyday life, both forms of literature are not separate from us. For example, we will hear music that contains lyrics of songs that are literary. And we ourselves will use a variety of idiosyncrasies and proverbs that are literally literary. In conclusion, literature is part of human culture. It is the human self expression and also the human aesthetic manifestation of the language spoken by themselves.

Kesusasteraan merujuk kepada hasil seni yang disampaikan melalui bahasa. Dari segi hurufiahnya, perkataan kesusasteraan bermaksud "kumpulan buku-buku yang indah bahasanya dan baik isinya." Pada erti kata yang lebih luas, kesusasteraan boleh dimaksudkan sebagai segala pengucapan yang indah-indah, sama ada ia tertulis atau tidak. Kesusasteraan pada lahiriahnya wujud dalam masyarakat manusia melalui bentuk tulisan dan juga wujud dalam bentuk lisan. Dalam kehidupan sehari-harian, kedua-dua bentuk kesusasteraan sememangnya tidak terpisah daripada kita. Misalnya, kita akan mendengar muzik yang mengandungi lirik lagu yang merupakan hasil sastera. Dan kita sendiri pula akan menggunakan pelbagai peribahasa dan pepatah yang indah-indah yang sebenarnya juga merupakan kesusasteraan. Pada kesimpulannya, kesusasteraan merupakan sebahagian daripada budaya manusia. Ia adalah ekspresi diri manusia dan juga manifestasi estetik manusia terhadap bahasa yang dipertuturkan oleh mereka sendiri.
