Abstract

There are many different ways to approach the problems of meaning, since meaning is related to many different functions of language. The meanings of words in a language are interrelated and they are defined in part by their relations with other words in the language. Analyzed in the same semantic domain, words can be classified according to shared and differentiating features. Breaking down the sense of a word into its minimal distinctive features, componential analysis of meaning can be a useful approach in the study of meaning, particularly in determining the meaning of a lexeme. Although componential analysis has some difficulties and limitations in its application, it is still used in modern linguistics.

Abstract

Taking the principles of critical discourse analysis favoring issues on unequal power relations, this discourse study attempts to disclose the manifestation of privilege in government regulations. To do so, it combines the principles of Systemic Functional Grammar and CDA by explicating the results of transitivity analysis on the legal text within relevant socio-political context. The data were the clauses in Circular Letter No. 26/2021 enacted by the Indonesian government on Health Protocols for International Travel during the COVID-19 Pandemic. The results show that, in terms of transitivity, the circular letter includes material, relational, verbal, and mental process, which serve to show the details on health protocols to be adhered by travelers, to describe the criteria of travelers who are given special provisions and of the countries being temporarily banned from entering Indonesia, to report the health condition of travelers, and to show the need of medical assistance. The material and relational processes demonstrate the form of privileges, namely dispensation from quarantine implementation and the exemption from Indonesia travel restriction. The relational process shows the particular privileged groups, including the state officials, delegates of economic cooperation, and well-known figures. It is embedded in the circular letter that what are deemed beneficial for the political elites and the country's economic are somehow not in line with the public interest.

Abstract

DPAD DIY Library Service Center (Balaiyanpus), which provides resources for disseminating knowledge and information, always needs to introduce to the public its three units: Grhatama Pustaka Library, Jogja Library Center, and Modern Learning House. Unfortunately, its promotional materials were limited. To optimize its promotion, the English Literature Study Program of UNY conducted a Community Service (PkM) aiming to develop information technology-based promotional media through creating contents for social media and translating its leaflets from Bahasa Indonesia into English. During preparation, the PkM team conducted a needs analysis and field survey. In development stage, the promotional media were designed by the team, given feedback by Balaiyanpus DPAD DIY, and revised. Afterwards, the translated promotional leaflets were posted on its website and 30 digital contents were broadcast via its Instagram and Tiktok accounts. Evaluation was received from respondents and Balaiyanpus DPAD DIY. The promotional contents were considered informative, interesting, understandable, fairly easy to remember, and appropriate for the social media. An assessment from Balaiyanpus DPAD DIY shows that those contents received a positive response from the public.
