Abstract

This research was motivated by the convergence phenomenon carried out by comedian Megi Irawan when he was a guest star on the PWK podcast hosted by Praz Teguh. Language convergence is an individual's strategy for adapting to the communicative behavior of the interlocutor. This research focused on the Indonesian-Minangkabau language variations used by Megi Irawan when converging on Praz Teguh. The data was obtained from two episodes of the PWK podcast featuring Megi Irawan as a guest star. This research used a descriptive qualitative approach to identify language features, convergence strategies, and social correlations. The findings showed that Megi Irawan converged using variations of the Indonesian-Minangkabau language. In the intrasystemic (internal) aspect of language, three types of Indonesian-Minangkabau language variations were found, namely phonological variations, morphological variations, and semantic variations. The convergence strategies used by Megi Irawan are code-switching, code-mixing, and interference. The findings offer significant insights into broader sociolinguistic themes. First, the research emphasizes how language variations, particularly between Indonesian and Minangkabau, reflect the identities of speakers. This aligns with sociolinguistic studies that explore how language serves as a marker of social identity and cultural belonging. Second, the findings reveal that language serves not only as a means of communication but also as a tool for building social solidarity and navigating social relationships. Third, the research contributes to ethnographic approaches in sociolinguistics by examining how language variations are tied to cultural practices and social interactions.

Abstract

The presence of Israeli propaganda has made it difficult for Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif to report what is happening in Palestine. To ensure that Anas's news can reach the global community, Anas uses social media, especially X, to disseminate information more widely. To gain public sympathy and attention, Anas uses expressive language to encourage the global community by sharing his feelings regarding the conflict he experienced in Palestine. Therefore, this study will discuss the types of expressive speech acts in social media tweets by Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif. This qualitative study aims to describe the expressive speech acts used in social media X by Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif. The data collection method used was note-taking and documentation. The analysis stage used the pragmatic matching method.  The results of this study found the function of expressive speech acts that show speech functions, namely (1) determination, (2) anger, (3) frustration, (4) gratitude, (5) complaints, (6) misery, and (7) expressions of sadness. The expressive speech acts found in Anas Al-Sharif's tweets demonstrate subjectivity, which in this case is not considered a violation of journalistic ethics, but rather a way out to seek public sympathy amidst limitations in accessing the outside world and the unbalanced bias carried out by Western media against Israel.
