Abstract

DKI Jakarta as the capital city of Indonesia bears in very complex problems. The problems are not only related to the economy but also social aspects. One of them is the violation toward women. Among many kinds of violation toward women, verbal one is very hard to be identified since it left nothing physically. This article is aimed at describing the verbal violation experienced by women in DKI Jakarta. The research is conducted in three areas in Jakarta, Jakarta Timur, Jakarta Selatan, and Jakarta Barat. There are 50 wives and widow as the victims of violation to be the respondents. The data are any utterances uttered by (ex) husbands categorized as a violation. Note-taking, recording, and interviewing is done to collect the data. Referential and pragmatic identity method related to the concept of proposed by Smith (2012) is used to analyze the data. The result of the analysis is presented narratively and descriptively. Having analyzed the data, it is found that there are two general forms of verbal violation suffered by women in DKI Jakarta. They are 1) verbal action --(a) intimidation and (b)being called by indecent addressee and 2) non-verbal action--(a)being isolated from friends, family, and society; (b)being gazed at; (c) being ignored.
