Abstract

This study investigates the linguistic register used in TikTok Shop, focusing on how language varies in online commerce compared to everyday communication. This study aims to identify both the linguistic forms and meanings of registers commonly used in this context. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected from TikTok Shop interactions, including product listings, status updates, and comments. The analysis revealed various linguistic forms, such as nouns (eight items), verbs (five items), adjectives (two items), compound words (five items), abbreviations (five items), and phrases (five items). In terms of semantics, this study identified 11 examples of lexical meaning and 19 examples of contextual meaning. The findings highlight how specific linguistic features of online shop discourse reflect the dynamic and adaptive nature of language on digital marketing platforms.

Abstract

Discourse analysis of popular news is a crucial step in understanding the comprehensibility of information in mass media. This study analyzes the formal and semantic aspects of a news article titled "Komdigi Peringatkan TikTok dan Roblox untuk Segera Batasi Akun Anak di Bawah 16 Tahun" (Komdigi Warns TikTok and Roblox to Immediately Limit Accounts for Children Under 16) published on Kompas.com. Utilizing the theories of Halliday and Hasan as well as Renkema, this research identifies various lingual units that function as discourse markers. The research findings reveal a dominance of grammatical cohesion, specifically references and conjunctions, which serve to connect sentences. Furthermore, the use of collocation and hyponymy was found to strengthen the lexical aspects of the text. The presence of contrastive and additive semantic relationships ensures that the discourse remains coherent. The study concludes that the appropriate use of linguistic devices significantly determines the readability of public policy news. Keywords: discourse analysis, grammatical cohesion, lexical cohesion, Kompas.com

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the use of cohesive devices in undergraduate thesis abstracts by English Department students in Indonesia through the Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) approach. The data consist of 20 thesis abstracts selected from three public and private universities and were analyzed qualitatively focusing on grammatical cohesion (reference, substitution, ellipsis, conjunction) and lexical cohesion (repetition, synonym, antonym, collocation). The findings reveal that reference and conjunction are the most dominant grammatical cohesive devices; however, errors such as ambiguous references and illogical conjunction usage are frequently found. On the lexical level, repetition serves as the main strategy, while the use of synonyms and collocations remains limited, reducing lexical variety and the clarity of arguments. These findings underscore the importance of integrating SFL into academic writing instruction to improve students’ cohesion competence.

Abstract

This study analyzes interpersonal metaphors—mood and modality transformations—in three stories from Eka Kurniawan’s Kitchen Curse: Stories using a qualitative data condensation method. The results show that mood metaphors make up (30%) of the total, while modality metaphors account for (70%). Among mood metaphors, questions expressed as declaratives are the most common at (33.3%), followed by statements expressed as interrogatives at (30%). Modality metaphors are divided into modalization (68.6%) and modulation (31.4%). Within modalization, probability is the most frequent at (65.7%), and usuality is rare at (2.9%). In modulation, obligation and inclination each occur at (15.7%). Text 3 (Auntie) has the highest proportion of modality metaphors (40%), Text 2 (Caronang) follows with (32.9%), and Text 1 (Easing into a Long Sleep) has the least at (27.1%). Text 1 shows the highest use of mood metaphors (53.4%), linked to its focus on family interactions. These findings demonstrate how interpersonal metaphors influence narrative meaning and character relationships through shifts in mood and modality.

Abstract

This study examines how Al Jazeera English (AJE) and The New York Times (TNYT) represent humanitarian actors in their online coverage of the 2025 Gaza Freedom Flotilla, focusing on the textual dimension of Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis as operationalized through Halliday and Matthiessen’s transitivity system. Rather than pursuing Fairclough’s full three-dimensional model, the analysis is delimited to the lexicogrammatical level, treating participant roles, process types, and circumstantial elements as the primary evidence of ideological positioning. Using a qualitative descriptive design, four online news reports (two per outlet, published May–October 2025) were analyzed at clause level. The findings show that AJE assigns humanitarian actors as the Actor role in 41.3% of clauses, embeds them predominantly in material processes (64.5%), and frames their action through circumstances of Purpose and Means, constructing them as deliberate, self-directed agents. TNYT instead assigns the Goal role most frequently (36.4%), relies more heavily on verbal processes (29.4% versus 13.8% in AJE), and foregrounds circumstances of Place marking displacement rather than intention, constructing humanitarian actors as participants who are acted upon rather than agents who act and speak for themselves. These patterns show that ideology here is not asserted through explicit commentary but built cumulatively through recurring, consistent grammatical choices, and the study makes explicit the interpretive steps by which such patterns can be read as ideological rather than incidental.

Abstract

Public discussions of global conflict turned out not only to be stages for information exchange but also as arenas for negotiating agreement, direction, evaluation, and participation. In podcast settings, guests typically serve as information providers, which may obscure the interpersonal significance of their grammatical choices given the predominance of declarative statements. This review assesses the effects of disruptions in the conventional relationship between grammatical mood and speech function. Drawing on Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), the analysis inspects 484 guest clauses from three English-language episodes of the YouTube series PowerfulJRE that address the Russia-Ukraine War. The data were coded for mood, speech function, congruence, and tenor, integrating frequency analysis with contextual interpretation. While declarative statements structure most of the discourse, 37 clauses (7.6%) deviate from expected mood-function correspondences. These incongruities are unevenly distributed. Instances include questions functioning as statements, statements serving as questions or commands, and commands realized as statements or questions. Contextual analysis shows that those changes facilitate confirmation-seeking, alignment-building, directive mitigation, rhetorical engagement, narrative presentation, and discourse organization. The result shows that the interpersonal meaning of podcast discourse does not emerge only from leading grammatical patterns but also from speakers’ purposeful use of the relationship between grammar and function. Incongruent mood therefore functions as a resource that enables primarily informational discourse to achieve greater flexibility and interactivity
