Abstract

Corona and COVID-19 become the headline of almost all newspaper articles. It leads to a curiosity of its accordance to World Health Organization naming policy since those terms are relatively new for Indonesian people. Reading the newspaper becomes the solution for updating the condition of the pandemic. Unfortunately, some of the most-frequently-read newspaper seems inconsistent in giving the name that makes them have different references. This research is aimed to see the use of corona and COVID-19 in news articles to see its accordance with WHO naming policy. The analysis was done using AntCont software to see the collocation of corona and covid; besides that, the theory of discourse pragmatic is used to interpret each term's meaning. The analysis reveals that the meaning interpreted in those newspapers is inconsistent for its collocation, conjunction, and writing style. The analysis and its result are expected to evaluate the newsmaker or news writer about giving the reader accurate information. It is also expected to give the reader understanding of the proper meaning of corona and covid

Abstract

Jihadwatch.org is a website notorious for its anti-Islam news. However, no study focuses on how the website frames Islam itself. This study focuses on analyzing how Islam and Muslim the people who have Islam as their religion framed in the website. The Corpus approach is chosen in this research. It is chosen as it offers a quantitative approach to the data. This quantitative approach hopefully avoids subjectivity in the analysis. The data was taken in November 2017. Using collocation feature in corpus software, Islam is framed as a radical religion, trying to convert everybody, and the ideology is not suited in the west. Besides that, Muslims are framed as migrants, violent, and cannot accept the western lifestyle. Further research with more extensive data is required for further analysis. The next researcher can also analyze the website in the opposite extreme pro-Islam movement.

Abstract

Formula-E, which was successfully held in Jakarta, Indonesia, gave rise to various reports. This linguistics study aims to analyze the purpose of online media coverage about 'dukungan pemerintah' on the Formula-E event, which took place on Saturday, 4 June 2022. The data  were taken from online media portals Bisnis.com, CNN, Detik, Kompas, Pikiran Rakyat, and Tribunnews. There are 108 articles analyzed in this study. The articles were scrapped from the same day when the Formula E was held. The data that are sentences from the articles were analyzed using a corpus approach to find words 'dukungan’ (support) and 'pemerintah' (government) using concordances. The data discussed using Van Dijk's critical discourse analysis theory to reveal its meaning. The results found that the macrostructure is government support for the 2022 Formula-E. Then the superstructure of the six media uses a framework that matches the title and content. In the microstructure, 'dukungan' and 'pemerintah' concordances were found. Analysis of social cognition found that online media portals show partiality. The media that is most likely to support the government is CNN. It can be seen from the chosen language, which tends to provide evidence that the central government has supported this event. Meanwhile, the media that seemed to criticize the government's support was Tribunnews by presenting the figure of Joko Suranto as one of the Indonesian citizens who sponsored this event rather than central government. The social context to be achieved is that online media tend to show their side with the government by not choosing words that discredit the government.

Abstract

This study investigates how reviewers linguistically construct evaluations of high-end and budget smartphones through adjective usage in YouTube video reviews. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research analyzes English captions from ten review videos and processes them with AntConc to identify frequency patterns and discourse functions. The findings show clear lexical distinctions between the two categories. High-end smartphone reviews favor adjectives such as new, best, and better, emphasizing innovation, premium identity, and advanced features, including emerging AI-driven functions. In contrast, budget smartphone reviews rely heavily on adjectives like good, same, and little, framing these devices as practical, affordable, and often built upon recycled or minimally improved components. The analysis demonstrates how evaluative language shapes consumer perceptions by positioning flagship models as technologically progressive, while presenting budget devices as sufficient within financial constraints. The discussion connects these findings to existing literature on product discourse, innovation framing, and brand image formation. Overall, the study highlights how linguistic choices in reviews influence consumer expectations, particularly regarding AI advancements in high-end smartphones and camera performance across market tiers.

Abstract

This study looks at how people talk about blessings, using the lens of cognitive semantics and focusing on metaphors in religious language. The main goal is to pinpoint the key conceptual metaphors behind words related to “blessing,” and to show how these metaphors shape meaning in real contexts. To do this, data from religious texts and contemporary written sources in both Indonesian and English were gathered. Then, using qualitative descriptive methods and conceptual metaphor theory, we sorted out the metaphorical expressions, identified their source and target domains, and checked how often they popped up in different themes. The findings stand out: people often describe blessings using metaphors like wealth, abundance, journey, light, and divine gift. But the most common are BLESSING IS WEALTH and BLESSING IS ABUNDANCE, which tie spiritual value tightly to ideas of material gain or measurable benefit. The patterns aren’t just decorative language; they're fundamental frameworks that guide how believers think and talk about religious concepts. In short, the research shows that metaphor isn’t just fancy phrasing in religious language—it’s central to how people make sense of spiritual ideas, revealing deep, culturally rooted ways of seeing the world.
