Abstract

Kya Kya, known as Kembang Jepun, has transitioned from a predominantly Chinese cultural hub to a diverse economic and social space reflecting Indonesia's multicultural identity. Using data collected from 130 signs across the district, combined with interview, this research examines language usage categorized as monolingual, bilingual, and multilingual, shedding light on the motives behind language selection. As a result, Indonesian emerges as the dominant language across all categories, reflecting its role as the national language. However, other languages such as Chinese, English, Dutch, and Javanese contribute to the district's linguistic diversity. Bilingual signage highlights the coexistence of globalization and the enduring presence of the Chinese community, while multilingual signs underline the area's multicultural identity. This study demonstrates how language in public spaces reflects Kya Kya’s evolving identity, shaped by historical legacies, cultural interactions, and social transformations. The findings provide valuable insights into the linguistic landscape of Surabaya and its relevance to broader discussions on language, culture, and urban identity in Indonesia.

Abstract

 Abstract: Nowadays, mass shootings have become a major problem in the United States. The media, especially CNN, plays an important role in shaping ideologies and perceptions of this case. This study aims to analyze CNN's role in representing shooting incidents in the United States from October to November 2023. This research applied a descriptive qualitative method, focusing on corpus-based Critical Discourse Analysis using Fairclough’s (2013) theory. The results found that the collocation and concordance of the word “Shooting” are often associated with verbs and adjectives with negative connotations. Discourse practice analysis indicates CNN’s tendency as a “left-wing” media. Furthermore, socio-cultural practice analysis shows that the shooting incident is related to the international political situation and poor government response. In addition, social factors reflect the ideology, culture, politics, and economic aspects of this shooting case. Thus, CNN’s ideology aligns with the left-wing groups, or liberals, in reporting mass shooting cases in the United States. Keywords: Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), Corpus, Shooting, CNN

Abstract

This research aims to analyze The New York Times’s role in representing the #MeToo movement from 2017 to 2023. The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach with a Corpus-Based Critical Discourse Analysis (CBCDA) framework using Fairclough’s (2013) theory. The data were collected from 108 The New York Times articles containing the keyword “#MeToo” and compiled into a corpus using AntConc 3.4.4w. The analysis involved interpreting verbs and adjectives of collocation and concordance, followed by discourse practice and socio-cultural practice analysis. The findings reveal that the collocation of “#MeToo” is associated with verbs and adjectives that carry both positive and negative connotations. At the discourse practice level, The New York Times tends to portray women in the context of power inequality. Furthermore, the socio-cultural practice analysis indicates that the #MeToo movement reflects broader economic, political, and cultural dimensions. Overall, the results show that The New York Times embeds its ideology in representing the #MeToo movement. In conclusion, the study demonstrates that The New York Times not only reports on the #MeToo movement but actively participates in shaping its public meaning.
