KARANGAN : Aktiviti 5 - WATAK


WATAK

Dalam sesebuah cerita, harus ada watak-watak yang tertentu. Watak-watak ialah manusia, binatang atau apa saja objek yang digunakan sebagai ‘pelakon’ dalam cerita anda.

Jika diambil contoh di atas, terdapat tiga watak iaitu:

1. Saya
2. Azman (kawan saya)
3. Penyelamat (pemuda Cina)


Watak UTAMA

Setiap cerita mempunyai seorang watak utama, di mana peristiwa-peristiwa dalam cerita tersebut berpusat kepada watak itu.

Bagi contoh yang diberikan, watak utama ialah Saya.

Watak SAMPINGAN

Terdapat pula seorang atau lebih untuk dijadikan watak sampingan. Anda dinasihatkan supaya tidak menggunakan terlalu ramai watak sampingan yang akan mengelirukan pembaca.

Bagi contoh yang diberikan, watak sampingan ialah Azman dan pemuda Cina.

Penggambaran watak-watak anda amat penting untuk menghidupkan mereka. Ertinya apabila dibaca, pembaca seakan dapat melihat watak itu dalam fikiran mereka. Untuk melakukan ini, anda sebagai penulis harus terlebih dahulu membayangkan watak-watak anda.

Apa yang boleh digambarkan?

SIFAT

1. Fizikal
Muka, badan, rambut, ketinggian, janggut, cermin mata, misai, tahi lalat dan sebagainya.

2. Pakaian
Kemas, compang-camping, bersih, kotor, berseluar panjang, berbaju kurung, bertali leher, berkasut hitam, membawa tas tangan dan sebagainya.

SIKAP

1. Baik
Jujur, pemurah, penyayang, peramah, suka membantu dan sebagainya.

2. Jahat
Dengki, garang, tidak sopan, suka mengganggu, pengotor dan sebagainya.

Untuk menambahkan daya tarikan dalam karangan anda, cubalah teknik ini:

1. Ketinggian Azman setakat mencecah paras bahu saya sahaja.

Penulis tidak mengatakan Azman lebih pendek daripadanya tetapi membandingkan ketinggian mereka berdua agar pembaca dapat menggambarkan mereka.

2. Dua kali Azman dipanggil guru besar kerana ada aduan dari para pelajar yang pernah diganggunya.

Penulis tidak mengatakan Azman suka mengganggu. Sebaliknya, penulis menunjukkan sejauh mana Azman suka mengganggu di sekolah sehinggakan dipanggil guru besar.

3. Dada ayah turun naik dan matanya pula merah menyala ketika merenung diri saya.

Penulis tidak mengatakan ayah terlalu merah. Cuba bayangkan sejauh mana ayah penulis sedang marah sehinggakan matanya menyala.

Cari dan gambarkan sifat dan sikap watak-watak yang tertentu dengan cara yang lebih kreatif. Caranya amat mudah. Cuba cara-cara berikut:

- Terangkan apa yang ingin digambarkan.
Ayah sangat marah.

- Kemudian gunakan kreativiti anda dengan menggambarkan keadaan orang yang sangat marah.

- Lihat tangannya.
Menghentak-hentak, menuding-nuding, menghayun-hayun, mencekak pinggang..

- Dengar suaranya.
Gegak-gempita, kuat, lantang, memekik-mekik.

- Lihat raut wajahnya.
Warna kulit bertukar, kulit berkerut, mata terbeliak.

Contoh lukisan watak

- Seorang gadis comel berbaju kelabu sedondong, bertopi mengkuang caping keliling lebar, menghampiri kereta lama yang enjinnya masih mengaum-ngaum kerana eksleretornya ditekan-tekan Salam.- Engkau Tidak Tahu, Muhammad Ariff Ahmad

- Aku bayangkan perangai abangku. Pasti dia terlalu moden kini. Agaknya bercakap cara Barat. Makan cara Barat. Lagak Barat. Semuanya kebarat-baratan. Aku bayangkan rupa abangku. Kulitnya mesti sudah kemerah-merahan. Kulit Jawa bercampur Inggeris. Hebat sungguh! – Nostalgia Yang Hilang, Mohamed Latiff Mohamed

- Aku memeluk abang. Badannya kental dan tegap. Tidak nampak usia abang telah menjangkau ke-58 tahun. Abang kulihat seperti baru berusia 45 tahun. Wajah abang bersih. Pipinya tembam berisi. Matanya jernih bersinar-sinar. Sementara bibir abang kelihatan sentiasa basah. – Nostalgia Yang Hilang, Mohamed Latiff Mohamed

- Masing-masing bersetuju dengan kata-kata Kojek yang botak licin kepalanya itu, bersinar bak bulan purnama. Di belakang kepalanya terdapat tatu Red Hot Chilli Peppers. Dialah kepala kumpulan The Dirty Dozen itu. – Sulaiman Slyman, Mohammed Thamrin Kamsan

- Pakaian kita hampir seragam walaupun di luar padang bola. Jeans button fly steamer, tiga suku atau tight-fit merupakan satu kemestian, dengan jersi bolasepak dipakai sama setiap kali ada perjumpaan. – Sulaiman Slyman, Mohammed Thamrin Kamsan

- Tak tahan rasanya melihat Saleha berpakaian begitu, dengan baju yang tak berlengan, bertengkuk lebar hingga mendedahkan dadanya dan hampir setengah belakangnya ditambah pula dengan skirt denim hingga ke paras atas lutut. – Saleha Binti Salleh, R. Azmann A. Rahman
