Summary
Berdasarkan kenyataan bahwa tuturan humor dapat berkorelasi positif dengan respon senyuman, tawaan, dan tepuk tangan audien maka tidaklah berlebihan apabila tuturan humor dalam acara MTGW merupakan “praktik baik” karena terlihat menghibur dan mendidik audien mitra tuturnya. Senyum atau tawa adalah reaksi mitra tutur terhadap kata, kalimat, dan gaya bahasa yang digunakan penutur dalam tuturan humor. Penggunaan kata, kalimat, dan gaya bahasa dalam kegiatanm komunikasi perlu memperhatikan keserasian dan kesesuaian dengan konteks pemakaiannya; jika tanpa mempedulikan keserasian tersebut dapat meninbulkan hal yang mengganggu keserasian hubungan. Demikian pula jika penutur menggunakan kata dan kalimat dalam ragam bahasa humor maka faktor waktu, tempat, situasi, faktor mitra atau audien petutunya akan ikut mempengaruhinya. Tuturan pembuka yang provokatif-metaforik, tanpa menyinggung, menyakiti, dan mengancam muka audien atau siapa pun karena pronomina kita dalam teks itu tidak menunjuk pada orang per orang, tetapi menunjuk pada semua manusia.Kesannya terasa menyamaratakan secara berlebihan (teknik humor exaggeration), tapi justru itulah yang menimbulkan efek jenaka dan tawa bagi audiennya. MT dalam acara MTGW di Metro TV relatif sering menyapa mitra tuturnya dengan kata anda
