Abstract

This Research Aimed To See The Analysis Of Illocutial Speech Act On Instagram Posts And Comments Of Third Semester English Education Students At Hkbp Nommensen. After analyzing the illocutionary acts in the Instagram posts and comments of third-semester English Education students at Nommensen HKBP University, the following conclusions can be drawn: The illocutionary speech acts found in the data include assertives, directives, and expressives. The data was collected from the Instagram accounts of third-semester English Education students, that is, @Icaafrianisitorus, @givalentine_, @novia.as.564, and @cristina_nelvana. Each account focused on different topics. For example, one account focused on emotional expression and social identity, while another emphasized self-confidence and self-validation. Students use assertive acts to express their thoughts, present factual information, and share personal perspectives. Directive acts are employed to influence others' behavior, such as offering advice, making invitations, and encouraging participation in activities. Expressive acts reflect the speaker's emotional state and are used to convey feelings such as gratitude, encouragement, congratulations, and welcome. No commissive or declarative speech acts were found in the data.The most dominant type of illocutionary act found in the data is expressive. This type of speech act is used the most frequently, indicating that students primarily use Instagram for emotional expression, maintaining social connections, and strengthening interpersonal relationships. The prevalence of expressive acts emphasizes the affective nature of their digital communication, focusing on emotional support, social bonding, and self-expression. The absence of commissive and declarative speech acts is likely due to Instagram’s informal and personal nature as a platform, which does not require formal commitments or declarations.In conclusion, this study demonstrates that social media serves as more than just an information-sharing tool; it is a dynamic space for self- expression, emotional connection, and identity formation. The students’ linguistic choices reflect their inclination toward fostering interpersonal relationships, strengthening social bonds, and engaging in meaningful interactions rather than simply exchanging factual content. This highlights the evolving nature of digital communication, where social media platforms facilitate both personal expression and community engagement.

Abstract

Gender is a significant social construct that influences various aspects of life, including education and media representation. This study investigates gender representation in the New Frontiers 2 English textbook for Grade 8 students at SMP Swasta Methodist Tanjung Morawa. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method. Using Logsdon’s (1985) framework, which identifies six aspects of gender representation, the study analyzes the prevalence and portrayal of male and female characters in terms of pictures, mentions, roles, games, role models, and naming patterns. The findings reveal imbalances in representation, with males dominating leadership and technical roles, while females are more often linked to descriptive or emotional contexts. This highlights the need for equitable gender portrayals in textbooks to foster inclusive and unbiased learning environments. The study emphasizes the importance of critically evaluating educational materials to ensure they promote gender equality, aligning with Indonesia’s commitment to creating equitable learning opportunities.
