What Narrative Text Is

Narrative text is a type of story writing (and also storytelling by word of mouth) that includes many kinds of stories, such as:

  • Fables / animal stories
  • Fairy tales (e.g., princess stories)
  • Imaginative stories (e.g., “tuyul”)
  • Stories from experiences written in story form

Purpose of Narrative Text

The purpose of narrative text is to entertain:

  • If presented as writing, it entertains the reader.
  • If presented as oral storytelling, it entertains the listener.

Generic Structure (How to Build a Narrative Text)

  1. Orientation
    • Introduces the story context, including when, where, and who the characters are.
  2. Complication / Conflict
    • The problems begin to appear, and characters face issues.
  3. Resolution
    • The problems are solved, showing the outcome of the conflict.
  4. Re-orientation / Ending
    • The story concludes, which may be a happy ending or possibly a sad ending.

Characteristics (Linguistic Features)

Narrative text commonly uses:

  • Simple Past Tense for past events/incidents.
  • Adverbs of time, such as:
    • “One day”
    • “Once upon a time / a long time ago”
    • “In the village …” (and similar time/location starters)

Examples Referenced
