Abstract

Language usage has functions to express ideas, and simultaneously can promote the speakers’ identities and social status. Identity markers such as race, gender, class and ethnicity have important roles to choose language used. This paper explores the correspondence between language, identity and social status as exposed in a classic film entitled “Guess who’s coming to dinner tonight” released in 1967. The utterance of the characters in the movie will be analyzed in order to illustrate the vital role of language as a part of promoting the speaker's identity and social status. The study also emphasizes language choice, such as specific vocabulary, and share attitude when discussing a sensitive topic. As a finding, there are significant points that language use inevitably promotes the speakers' social identity due to their academic backgrounds and beliefs.

Abstract

Women in media discourse are often marginalized, considered always wrong and given negative labels. The purpose of this study is to determine the representation of women in verbal texts and visual texts on the Instagram of the Magdalene Online Feminist Magazine. This study uses a qualitative method with a multimodal discourse analysis approach on the Instagram posts of the Magdalene Online Feminist Magazine. Verbal text analysis uses Halliday's Transitional Structure theory and visual text analysis uses Kress Leeuwen's Narrative Representation System. Data analysis is carried out through three stages including identification of processes, participants and circumstances, then multimodal interpretation and triangulation of findings. This study analyzes 42 illustrations from the Instagram account @magdaleneid selected using a purposive sampling technique from January to October 2024. The analysis is carried out in stages by identifying Halliday's transitivity structure in verbal texts and Kress Leeuwen's narrative representation system in visual texts, then interpreting the representational meaning of women based on the findings of both. The results of the study on verbal texts show that the dominant process is the material process, the dominant participants are actors and goals. The dominant circumstance is the cause circumstance. In the visual text, the most processes were action processes, the most participants were actors and goals, and the most circumstance was place circumstance. Verbal text analysis and visual text analysis show the representation of women in the Magdalene Online Feminist Magazine Instagram as active, dynamic subjects, and have important roles in various contexts. Verbal text analysis and visual text also have a complementary relationship and strengthen each other's meaning regarding the representation of women. This research adds to the literature on the analysis of transitivity structures, expands macrolinguistic studies, adds to media studies and gender studies.

Abstract

The aim of this activity is to educate and empower the community to actively participate in conservation efforts, which involves mangrove planting mutual cooperation activities, the formation of environmental awareness groups, and collaboration with NGOs, government, and academics. The activity methods used are providing education using lectures, educational videos, distributing flyers and posters and planting mangrove seedlings on the beach. To measure the success of education, pre tests and post tests were used to measure the level of community knowledge about mangrove forest conservation. The results of this activity increased community knowledge by 6.13, from 12.53 (before education) to 18.66 (after education). The T-test results obtained a p-value <0.001. That is, statistically it can be concluded that there is a significant average difference between community knowledge before and after education. The conclusion of this activity is that after being given education, the average community has increased knowledge about mangrove forest conservation as an effort to reduce disaster risk. It is hoped that the community and local government will be able to maintain and preserve mangrove forests in the Bosua Village area as a form of effort in disaster mitigation.

Abstract

This research is analysis of noun phrases (NPs) to find the deepest meaning, namely ideological reference that indicates speaker’s interest and purposes. In addition to being based on an integrated approach between analysis of form and function, the study departs from the insights that the statements about language is never only about language, and also it is never merely about statements. The research was conducted as a qualitative descriptive study. Therefore, the substance aspect of data is written language, namely a news report entitled “Quran expert says nonmarital sex is allowed in Islam”. The source of data was downloaded from www.thejakartapost.com. The term of population and sampel adheres to the information rich paradigm, so that the population is the entire clauses and the complement of preposition, while the samples are all NPs. The data collection was carried out by observational method, while the data collection technique was handled by reading and taking note. Method and technique of data analysis were operated through a layered model of NP structure that is proposed by Rijkhoff. In addition, NP classification related to ideological reference borrowed the Key Lingual Symbols (KLS) and ideology concepts that are extracted by Sawirman. Based on the analyzing of all data, this research found five key NPs that contain the spirit of discourse and represent the overall message that is conveyed by the author. Moreover, that five key NPs indicate the ideology reference, namely; the institutionalization ideology, the conflictual ideology, the praxis ideology, and the secondary ideology.

Abstract

In this research, the authors compared the framing strategy used by the ANTARA media and TEMPO media for the issue of the ratification of the Omnibus Law on Job Creation. This research was conducted descriptively with comparative qualitative approach. A qualitative document procedure was applied in collecting the data. Fairclough's framework of Critical Discourse Analysis and the framing analysis model by Pan and Kosicki (1993) were combined to analyze the data. The result of the data analysis is presented in the table and the interpretation form. The result shows that TEMPO's framing strategy is more clearly defined, while ANTARA's strategy is less clear. In building a negative or positive representation, TEMPO Media tries to present information supported by many sources. Then, the use of images in TEMPO news supports the truth of information, while the use of images in ANTARA media improves the quality of information sources. The five news stories from ANTARA media selected in this study always use the face image of the selected informant as a source of news information. AbstrakPada penelitian ini, penulis membandingkan strategi pembingkaian yang digunakan media ANTARA dan TEMPO dalam membingkai isu pengesahan Omnibus Law Cipta Kerja. Penelitian ini dilakukan secara deskriptif dengan pendekatan komparatif kualitiatif. Prosedur dokumen kualitatif diterapkan dalam pengumpulan data. Kerangka analisis wacana kritis Fairclough dan model analisis pembingkaian oleh Pan dan Kosicki (1993) digabungkan untuk menganalisis data. Hasil analisis data disajikan dalam bentuk tabel dan interpretasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa strategi pembingkaian TEMPO lebih jelas, sedangkan strategi ANTARA kurang jelas. Dalam membangun representasi negatif atau positif, TEMPO mencoba menghadirkan informasi yang didukung oleh banyak sumber.

Abstract

This research was aimed to reveal and explain the violations conducted by Google to its user privacy which is implied through its Privacy Policy Agreement statement by analyzing it with Theme and Rheme proposed by Halliday. This qualitative research was done by applying the documentation recording method in collecting data and the Halliday’s Systemic Functional Linguistics as the basic theory. The result of the data was presented in the table analysis and in the form of descriptive interpretation. The result showed that Google build its clauses with the 4 types of theme construction. From the analyzed clauses, the dominantly built clause is the single constituent with marked theme where “We” is the mostly occurred subject. Yet, Google applied unmarked theme mosty in their clauses. With this dominant occurences of “We”, Google construe its existence as the authority holders of the w hole agreement. The researchers found that similar finite predicator appeared repeatedly such “collect” and “use” in building its clauses. These constitute Google’s strategy in order to force the user’s permission to let Google freely access their privacy. In addition, the operation of the conjunction “and”, extention, expansion and exemplificatory constituents represent the plentiful request of Google related to its user’s information. Those summarized the violation conducted by Google to its user’s privacy. Keywords: clause, forensic-linguistics, misleading-statement, privacy, violation.

Abstract

Language choices in news titles are never neutral. They systematically construct how readers understand who acts and who is affected. This study examines the transitivity structure in CNN news titles on the Israel-Palestine conflict following the ceasefire announced on January 19, 2025, using Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) as its theoretical framework. Data consist of 322 titles (669 clauses) published between January 19 and July 24, 2025, collected from CNN’s Middle East section via the Internet Archive and annotated using UAM Corpus Tool 6. The analysis identifies the distribution of Process types, Participant functions, and Circumstantial elements across the corpus. Results show that Material Processes dominate CNN’s titles construction (62.93%), followed by Verbal Processes (20.48%). In terms of Participant functions, Actor (30.93%) and Goal (27.79%) are the most frequent, yet CNN consistently employs ambiguous pronouns (‘it’, ‘they’) and passive constructions without explicit agents, reducing the identifiability of causal actors. Verbal processes frequently position Western and Israeli officials as primary Sayers, reflecting an editorial tendency toward diplomatic and institutional framing. Circumstantial elements are limited, with Location dominant (70.76%). These patterns indicate that CNN frames the conflict through procedural language in which events are reported without consistently traceable agents or explicit causal context.
