Abstract

This study analyzes the theme of marriage delay in the novel Induk Gajah by Ira Gita Sembiring which reflects the conflict between tradition and modernity in Indonesian society. The novel depicts social pressures, individual choices, and changes in cultural values faced by unmarried women at a certain age. The main focus of this study is to identify factors that influence the decision to postpone marriage, such as family pressures, career priorities, emotional trauma, and incompatibility with potential partners. The results of the study show that the delay in marriage, as depicted in this novel, is not a failure but a form of awareness of individual needs and rights. This novel provides a critique of societal norms that often limit women, and emphasizes the importance of freedom to choose the path of life without judgment.

Abstract

The language used in online news media plays an important role in shaping public understanding of educational issues. This study aims to analyze the use of diction and figurative language in a Kompas.com news article entitled “Mengapa Kemampuan Literasi dan Numerasi Siswa Indonesia Masih Rendah?” published on December 6, 2023. This research employed a qualitative descriptive method using document analysis techniques. The data consisted of words, phrases, and sentences containing specific diction and language styles related to literacy and numeracy issues in Indonesia. The results indicate that the news article employs evaluative diction, factual diction, causal diction, and critical diction. In addition, several language styles were identified, including comparative-argumentative style, scientific expository style, conceptual metaphor, and direct criticism. These linguistic choices function to strengthen the credibility of information, construct public awareness, and emphasize the urgency of improving literacy and numeracy achievement among Indonesian students. The findings demonstrate that journalistic language serves not only as a medium of information delivery but also as a tool for shaping readers' perceptions regarding educational problems.
