Pantek is one of the many insults that are often uttered when someone is emotional, angry, or frustrated. Like other insults, pantek has a negative meaning.
Various sources mention that, as an insult, the word pantek primarily comes from the Minang language. In its original language, the meaning of pantek is a word or term commonly used to refer to the female genitalia. Therefore, the word is considered rude and inappropriate to be uttered in public.
However, the fact is that the word pantek can be found not only in the Minang language. In other regional languages, there is also the word pantek with different meanings. One of them is in the Madurese language. Not much different from the Minang language, in Madurese, the meaning of pantek is also negative and often used as an insult. In Madura, pantek or often pronounced as pate' means 'dog'.
Meanwhile, another meaning of the word pantek can also be found in the Batak language. However, unlike the Minang and Madurese languages, the word pantek in the Batak language is far from negative connotations. In the Batak language, pantek means 'spark' or 'ignite'.
As mentioned earlier, in addition to being used in regional languages, the word 'pantek' can also be found in the Indonesian language. In fact, the word 'pantek' itself has been standardized, so the meaning of 'pantek' can be found in the Great Dictionary of the Indonesian Language (KBBI). Unfortunately, the meaning of 'pantek' in this KBBI seems to be less popular compared to its meaning as an expletive.
According to the KBBI, 'pantek' is a noun. Meanwhile, the meaning of 'pantek' itself is peg or nail. Furthermore, the word 'pantek' also has derived words, namely 'memantek' and 'terpantek'. Still according to the KBBI, the meaning of 'memantek' is to attach (wood, bamboo, etc.) with a peg. On the other hand, 'terpantek' means to be stuck (e.g. with a knife, nail, etc.).
Based on the meaning in the dictionary, the word 'pantek' should still be able to be used in daily life in a positive sense. The words 'pantek', 'memantek', and 'terpantek' can still be used, especially in the field of carpentry or construction. So, the use of this word is not just limited to being an expletive or insult.
