Abstract

This article aims at proposing a way to identify polysemy ‘anding-andingen’ or proverb in bahasa karo. The writer has an interest to use proverb or anding-aningen in this study because in proverb contains a lot of semantic meaning. This study was conducted using the descriptive qualitative approach in nature; therefore it only describes the semantic knowledge theory. The results of this study indicate that the element DO may occur either with a subject (Actor) alone with a second (Patient) argument as well (in English, as DO TO). It opened the way for a new semantically-inspired approach to grammar constructions. An analysis of ‘X does this’ as ‘X can say this’ and of ‘A because B’ as if not B, the not A’, the writers admitted that both DO and BECAUSE into the stable of semantic primitives. A similar entailment-like relationship obtains between PEOPLE and SOMEONE, but there is at least one significant syntactic difference, namely, that PEOPLE cannot occur with quantifier ONE.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the significance of context in the 2024 Indonesian election campaign texts. The problem focuses on the role of pragmatic cyber context, which has shifted from direct speech contexts (face-to-face) to virtual contexts (face-to-face via technology), and is oriented towards the context of the situation. This study employs a descriptive research methodology with a qualitative pragmatic approach, using data from print media and social media collected between May 2023 and February 2024. The data sources consist of five social media platforms, WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram, and five online news media outlets: Detik.com, Kompas.com, Tribunnews.com, Liputan6.com, and kumparan.com. Each source contributed 20 data points, resulting in a total of 200 data points. The data analysis process comprises the following stages: data collection, selection, coding, analysis, interpretation, and conclusion. The study’s results found that the role of pragmatic cyber context has shifted from direct to indirect (virtual or hybrid). The meaning of context in cyber text as a medium in political campaigns is found to be significant: it clarifies or elaborates on the utterance’s intent, emphasizes its substance, provides background and supports its intent, and details its intent. The role of context in campaign texts is to clarify intent, emphasize background, and support the utterance’s meaning.
