Abstract

Language represents the speaker’s identity due to the experiences stored in the mind that become mental lexicon used as expressions for communication. Fisherman children observing their fathers’ activities in fishing daily perceive what their parents do for their family. This article is aimed to describe the children’s feeling, experiences, and thought about fishermen through their words or expressions in their writing. To uncover the problems, I used observation method for collecting data; referential and inferential methods for analyzing data. I used elicitation technique to collect the data. The data were the words or expressions written by thirty seven fisherman children of SDN 01 API-API (elementary) SMP Fatkhul Qowim (junior secondary school), and MA Fatkhul Qowim (senior high school) in Wonokerto, Pekalongan, Indonesia. The results indicate that they use emotive vocabulary items which may result in their mental lexicon stored in the mind and fisherman vocabulary item preservation. Besides, they indicate fisherman habits, fishing trip duration, and natural challenges. The most prominent expressions are those referring to the main duties of fishing, natural challenges and hardship on the sea during fishing. Even the children have no direct experiences, they can perceive fisherman jobs quite well due to everyday observation.

The research data are in the form of a simple sentence, which contains adverb of time from a paper in the book Al-Arabiyah Baina Yadaik Volume 4a by Al-Fauzan, et al. (2014). The data collection was carried out using the observation method. The analysis of adverb of time in Arabic simple sentence was done by a tree diagram with the guidelines proposed by Chomsky (2002). The results showed that the adverb of time is inherent in verbs and was only found in the original verb and not a derivational verb. In addition, the sentence patterns of Arabic simple sentence attached by adverb of time consist of PS, SP, SPO, and PSO. The researchers also found the distribution of adverbs of time inside the predicate, behind the object, in front of the predicate, and behind the subject.

Abstract

Functional theory is a one of theories that are common used on the research of political debates in American campaign discourse. In the present article, Indonesian presidential debate is analyzed from the perspective of functional theory. The goal of this study is to analyze language function produced by candidates and to evaluate the applicability of functional theory in analyzing Indonesian presidential debate. The authors employ qualitative method in analyzing data. Supporting instruments in analyzing data were functional theory and political discourse analysis (PDA). PDA used in interpreting language function in political context. While, functional theory provides three functions, namely: attacks, defends, and acclaims. The finding shows that two different axioms are found. The first is the use of attack more than defense; it is line with the prediction of functional theory that has been tested in American political debate. Second, the use of acclaims less than attack, it differs in a way from the prediction of functional theory. Fundamentally, functional theory can be used as an instrument in analysis political debates in Indonesia even though the findings were not exactly consistence with the prediction. Thereby, the theory needs to be developed discursively.

Abstract

. [Editorial Cartoons Used to Present Implied Meaning Related to Hong Kong Extradition Bill Protests]. In communication, people may express their meaning implicitly. They use different forms of expressions but mean the same thing. The expressions used are not always vocal symbols or linguistic ones but also nonvocal symbols like cartoons. The cartoons can also be the context of the vocal symbols like in this study. This research aims to investigate the implied meaning (implicature) used in the editorial cartoons of the Hong Kong Extradition Bill. To study this, non-participant observation was used to collect the data. There were 12 editorial cartoons on the Taipei Times news website. Using Relevance Theory, the writers analyzed the data using referential, inferential, and pragmatic methods to uncover the implied meaning of the editorial cartoons. The results indicate that the journalist uses the implied meaning or implicature of the editorial cartoons to criticize, forewarn, and provide information. The meaning can be figured out since background knowledge can be used to decode the meaning transmitted. Besides, the context of the situation plays an important role to understand the meaning.
