Abstract

This paper sheds light on investigating the lexical cohesion on an Indonesian singer song entitled Coke Bottle by Agnez Mo. Lexical cohesion constitutes linguistic devices that help to create cohesiveness of the text. Lexical cohesion occurs when two words or more in a text are semantically related somehow – in other words, they are related in terms of their meaning. This study's design was a descriptive qualitative that attempted to elaborate the discourse analysis about lexical cohesion in Coke Bottle song by Agnez Mo. Some steps were conducted to collect the data, firstly, the lyrics that become the documentation were collected by the researcher from lyrics.com, secondly the researcher read the lyrics to understand the text. Thirdly, marking some words included as lexical cohesions in which they will be the real data of this study. The findings revealed that reiteration and collocation are found in the song, but the antonym that is part of reiteration is absent. Above all, repetition is the most commonly used in this song, especially the word I. This seems to indicate that the songwriter tried to make the song's lyrics match the music's beat, so the song became easy listening, and the listeners can enjoy the music.

Abstract

This research aimed to describe the use of Coherence in the thesis abstracts of the graduate program of the English Education Department of UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta. The descriptive qualitative analysis was used as the methodological design of this research that attempted to describe the phenomenon of discourse analysis, especially about coherence in the abstracts of the graduate program of the English Education Department of UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta. Some steps were conducted to collect the data, in which ten chosen abstracts were collected from the repository of UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta and analyzed to examine the types of Coherence proposed by Kehler (2002), the topical subject and the topical progression to see how they build coherence in the abstracts. This research shows that four out of eleven types of Coherence proposed by Kehler (2002) are used in twenty abstracts, including Parallel, Contrast, Generalization, and Explanation. Meanwhile, the topical subject shows mood as the dominant topical subject with a 91.74% percentage. In Addition, Sequential progression is a dominant Type of Topical Progression. Furthermore, Discourse Topic is hard to analyze because the abstracts only have one paragraph, so the discourse topic is analyzed based on the terms that frequently emerge to interpret the discourse topic. Finally, this study is expected to contribute to the development of language study, especially for Discourse Analysis, and it is also hoped to contribute to the education field, especially for university students, to improve the quality of English writing in abstracts of their research papers.         Â
