Abstract

This study examines affective identity and relational asymmetry in contemporary Indonesian pop song lyrics from a discourse linguistic perspective. Drawing on Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), affective linguistics, and stance theory, the article analyzes Sedia Aku Sebelum Hujan by Idgitaf as a site of affective meaning-making in popular culture. Using qualitative discourse analysis, the study focuses on micro-linguistic features such as pronominal patterns, modalization, metaphorical framing, repetition, and narrative positioning. The findings show that affective identity is constructed through consistent first-person agency (aku) and anticipatory emotional readiness, while the addressee (kau) is positioned as passive. This configuration produces a structurally asymmetrical relational pattern. Metaphors of rain, preparation, and struggle frame emotional devotion as moral responsibility, whereas modal expressions normalize emotional sacrifice as inevitable rather than negotiable. Repetition functions as an affective anchoring strategy that stabilizes and legitimizes unequal emotional labor. This study contributes to linguistic scholarship by demonstrating how affect and power intersect in intimate, non-institutional discourse. By integrating affective linguistics with CDA and applying it to Indonesian popular music, the research highlights song lyrics as influential discursive sites where cultural norms of love, care, and sacrifice are produced and circulated.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to find a strategy for Indonesian humor material by Cak Lontong. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The data was collected using the method of referring to the basic tapping techniques and advanced note-taking techniques. Data analysis in this study uses a referential equivalent method with similar linking techniques to support codification, reduction, presentation, and interpretation under a qualitative research framework. The results of this study showed that Cak Lontong used eight humor strategies namely utilizing general truths that are clearly known to people, changing constituents with language experience, deliberately misplacing pronouns, conveying something that is incomplete, changing different languages, giving responses that are unrelated, utilizing language gaps to distort their meaning, and conveying unfair, absurd, or even controversial topic.

Abstract

This study examines the dialectal characteristics of Indonesian as spoken in Merauke, South Papua, a linguistically diverse region shaped by intense multilingual contact. While previous research has focused primarily on Papuan Malay and major urban varieties, Indonesian usage in Merauke remains under-documented. Using qualitative analysis of naturalistic spoken interactions, this study investigates phonological variation, lexical integration, and pragmatic patterns emerging from contact between Indonesian, indigenous Papuan languages, and migrant speech varieties. The findings reveal systematic phonological adaptations, including vowel lengthening and consonant simplification influenced by substrate languages; extensive lexical hybridization reflecting ecological and sociocultural realities; and pragmatic practices characterized by relational orientation, indirectness, and collectivist stance markers. Rather than representing deviations from standard Indonesian, these features form a stable regional variety shaped by sociocultural interaction. This study contributes empirical data to Indonesian dialectology and highlights the importance of integrating linguistic structure with cultural context in analyzing contact-induced language variation.

Abstract

This study explores the intersection of classical Islamic philosophical thought and modern environmental ethics to propose a Sharia-based eco-theology model for addressing global sustainability challenges. It investigates key Islamic environmental principles, such as khalifah (stewardship), amanah (trustworthiness), and mizan (balance), which emphasize humanity’s responsibility to protect and preserve the environment. These values, derived from Islamic teachings, offer a moral and spiritual framework for ecological stewardship, aligning closely with contemporary concerns like sustainability, biodiversity preservation, and climate change mitigation. The research integrates these Islamic principles with modern ecological ethics, including ecocentrism, deep ecology, and environmental justice, to construct a holistic eco-theological model. Through this framework, the study emphasizes the importance of balancing ecological, economic, and social factors to promote environmental justice. The findings suggest that Islamic eco-theology can play a significant role in fostering environmental responsibility within Muslim communities and beyond, contributing to global sustainability efforts. Practical applications of these principles are seen in educational initiatives, such as the incorporation of eco-theology into curricula at Islamic institutions, and in community-based environmental projects. The research also highlights the challenges and limitations of traditional interpretations of Islamic environmental ethics, suggesting the need for progressive and adaptive approaches in addressing modern environmental issues. Future research directions include exploring the integration of this eco-theology in policy-making, Islamic education, and cross-cultural applications, ensuring its relevance to diverse communities facing environmental challenges.

Abstract

This study investigates how psychological experience and subject positioning are constructed through the transitivity system within contemporary Indonesian pop song lyrics. Drawing on Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), the analysis examines the distribution and function of mental, relational, and material processes in Mangu by Fourtwnty, a song characterized by introspective and minimalist lyrical expression. Using qualitative clause-level analysis, the study identifies process types, participant roles, and experiential configurations to explore how agency and inner experience are grammatically realized. The findings reveal a dominant pattern of mental and relational processes, while material processes appear minimal and frequently negated or modalized. This distribution positions the lyrical subject primarily as a Senser and Carrier rather than an Actor, foregrounding internal reflection, relational tension, and constrained agency over physical action. The transitivity configuration constructs a linguistic representation of psychological suspension, where experience is internalized and action remains deferred. By extending previous SFL-based studies on Indonesian cultural texts, this research demonstrates how transitivity functions as a grammatical resource for encoding subjectivity and experiential meaning in non-institutional discourse. The study contributes to discourse stylistics and functional linguistic research by highlighting the role of process selection in shaping representations of emotional experience in contemporary popular music.
