The culmination of this research is examining various markers of lexical cohesion in the October 2021 issue of Intisari magazine. The various types of writings in the magazine have a mission to provide enlightening information for the readers. The coverage of Intisari magazine is quite broad and in-depth—covering history, geography, and tradition—allowing it to be more complete and interesting to study. Starting from aspects of form, vocabulary, sentences, inter-sentence connections, and sentence structure. This is the basis why researchers take the essence as the object of study. In his analysis, the researcher uses the Sumarlam concept as a reference for the classification of lexical cohesion markers in discourse. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with the October 2021 edition of Intisari magazine as the object of study. The data collection method used literature study with analytical descriptive technique as a data analysis technique. The results of the study showed various markers of lexical cohesion, including: (i) repetition, (ii) synonymy, (iii) antonymy, (iv) hyponymy, (v) collocation, and (vi) equivalence. Variations in the use of lexical cohesion in Intisari magazine are a form of applying the types of lexical cohesion markers in discourse.

Abstract

This study examines the distinctions between unabridged and abridged audiobooks within the context of narrative speech materials, with a focus on how textual completeness influences listener comprehension, engagement, and interpretive depth. Unabridged audiobooks preserve the full linguistic and stylistic features of the original text, offering a comprehensive narrative experience that supports detailed understanding and authorial intent. In contrast, abridged audiobooks condense content to prioritize brevity and accessibility, often modifying narrative structure, pacing, and emphasis. Using a mixed-methods approach, this research analyzes selected narrative recordings across both formats, incorporating listener response data and discourse analysis to evaluate differences in retention, emotional engagement, and narrative coherence. Findings suggest that while abridged versions enhance accessibility and time efficiency, they may reduce exposure to nuanced language patterns and character development. Conversely, unabridged audiobooks provide richer linguistic input but require greater listener investment. The study underscores the importance of aligning audiobook format with communicative goals in educational and applied linguistic contexts. In conclusion, by accentuating the trade-offs between completeness and concision, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of how narrative speech materials can be optimized for diverse audiences and listening purposes.
