- Abstract
Oral traditions, as discourses told or passed down from generation to generation, include oral and written, all of which are passed on orally. Aparaja is a form of oral tradition of the Lio ethnic community that needs revival. Aparaja is part of oral tradition in the form of traditional questions in the form of riddles. Currently, the Lio language puzzle is never spoken by a parent or child, by the Lio community. This is evident when people are asked questions about Aparaja in general, no one knows; some parents say they heard it but could not talk about it properly. This paper aims to explain the form and function of Aparaja as the cultural wealth of the Lio ethnic community in two villages located on the south coast of Ende Regency, namely Wolotopo and Ngalupolo villages. The approach used is qualitative. Data collection techniques consist of interview techniques, recording techniques, listening-engagement techniques, and note-taking techniques. The theories used are those of oral literature and those of reception.
