An Analysis of Antonyms Classification in a Song by Pink Sweats Entitled “At My Worst”

Abstract

This article will look at how opposite meaning is classified, with a focus on Pink's original song "At My Worst." The goal of this research was to see what kind of classification of opposite meaning there was in the lyrics. This research is qualitative descriptive in nature. According to Sudaryanto in Sukma (2010), descriptive research describes how things are based on facts. Actually, C. J. Smith coined the term "antonymy" to describe the opposite of "synonymy" at the time. According to R Umagandhi and M Vinothini (2017), the term semantics was used to refer to the study of meaning in a broad sense. It was crucial to communication research. Lyons (1977) defines "antonym" as "opposite in meaning words" and "antonymy" as "oppositeness between words."
