Abstract

This study aims to explore the function and semantic role of interrogative expressions in Yusuf Idris’s short story Mahfazhah, through the lens of Michael Riffaterre’s semiotic theory. The research investigates how these linguistic tools shift from simple interrogatives into rhetorical devices that convey psychological, social, and philosophical dimensions, thereby deepening textual interpretation and revealing hidden meanings. A qualitative descriptive method is employed, specifically content analysis. Interrogative sentences are extracted and categorized according to their types, then analyzed using Riffaterre’s semiotic concepts to uncover the subtextual meanings embedded within the narrative structure and cultural context. The findings reveal that interrogatives such as “mā” and “limādhā” reflect internal confusion; “hal” and the hamzah interrogative express existential alienation; “kayfa” and “ayna” portray economic hardship; while “man” and “ayy” articulate identity struggles and individual-society tension. Thus, interrogatives in the text become central rhetorical elements charged with symbolic and interpretive depth. This research contributes to the applied understanding of Riffaterre’s semiotics and offers an analytical model for interpreting short stories through a semiotic perspective. It supports scholars and students of Arabic literature in uncovering deeper textual meanings within a rigorous scientific framework.

Abstract

Going concern is an assumption of company establishment but some companies go bankrupt. Fraud can be a cause of bankruptcy, used to hide bankruptcy, and can occur due to bankruptcy. Potential fraud can occur in every main activity of a curator in resolving bankruptcy cases so the curator requires forensic accounting. The purpose of this study was to determine the importance of forensic accounting in bankruptcy cases resolved by a curator and exploring the model of the relationship between bankruptcy and forensic accounting. This study used a qualitative approach with semi-structured interviews. The respondents’ criteria were curators who had practiced for at least three years and had experiences in resolving bankruptcy assets. The data analysis was a content analysis, namely a relational analysis, with software Nvivo 11. The results of this study showed that, in carrying out their duties, there are obstacles that are commonly encountered by currators. Forensic accounting is important and helpful for curators’ work, especially related to fraud or verification of the accuracy of bankruptcy asset transactions and the process of valuing bankruptcy assets. However, not all curators understand forensic accounting
