Abstract

This study conducts a semiotic analysis of the signs embedded in Tingkuluak Koto Gadang, a traditional headpiece worn by Minangkabau women in Indonesia. Employing Charles Sanders Peirce's triadic model of semiotics, the research examines how motifs, colors, and ornaments function as signs to convey cultural meanings. The qualitative case study approach involved direct observation, visual documentation, and interviews with cultural experts to identify and interpret the semiotic elements in Tingkuluak Koto Gadang. The analysis revealed ten signs categorized into six types: Sinsign, Legisign, Icon, Index, Symbol, and Decisign. Among these, Icon and Decisign were the most dominant, with three occurrences each. For instance, the color red and gold serve as Icons, symbolizing courage and prosperity, while floral motifs like Bunga and Akar Daun function as Decisigns, representing harmony and resilience. Other signs, such as the Padi motif (Symbol) and Rumbai Kotak (Index), reflect agricultural heritage and structured societal values, respectively. The findings underscore that Tingkuluak Koto Gadang is not merely decorative but a rich semiotic system encoding Minangkabau identity, social norms, and philosophical values. However, the study highlights a growing disconnect among younger generations, who increasingly perceive these garments as aesthetic rather than symbolic. This research contributes to cultural preservation by decoding the hidden meanings of traditional attire, emphasizing the need for educational initiatives to sustain this intangible heritage. It also demonstrates the efficacy of Peirce’s semiotic framework in analyzing non-verbal cultural texts, offering a model for future studies on traditional clothing and material culture

Abstract

This study investigates the evaluative language used by Donald Trump in his speech concerning Harvard University’s treatment of foreign students, employing the Attitude system from Appraisal Theory. Focusing on three subsystems such as Affect, Judgement, and Appreciation. This study analyzes how Trump constructs his political persona, positions ideological others, and frames educational policy within nationalist discourse. The data were drawn from transcribed segments of a publicly available speech and analyzed qualitatively using Appraisal Theory as the primary analytical framework. The findings reveal that Judgement was the most dominant Attitude type (44.29%), followed by Appreciation (35.71%) and Affect (20%). Most evaluations (58.57%) were directed toward others (especially institutions and political actors), while the remaining 41.43% targeted the speaker himself. The overall evaluative polarity was predominantly negative (61.43%), with positive evaluations accounting for 38.57% of the data. Trump frequently praised his own leadership capacity while expressing dissatisfaction or moral condemnation toward elite institutions. Notably, this study highlights a rarely examined theme in Trump’s discourse: education policy. By framing foreign students as victims and elite universities as ideologically flawed, Trump repositions the education sector as a site of political contestation. This study contributes to the growing body of literature on political discourse by extending Appraisal analysis into the educational domain, revealing how evaluative meanings shape public narratives beyond traditional themes like war and immigration.
