Abstract

This study analyzes affective meaning in the comment sections of Indonesian TikTok news accounts using Leech's (1981) semantic theory and Ekman's (1992) framework of six basic emotions: happiness, sadness, anger, disgust, surprise, and fear. The research aims to identify how TikTok users express emotions and attitudes toward news content through linguistic choices and emoji usage. A qualitative content analysis approach was employed, wherein twenty-five comments were collected through purposive sampling from five official news accounts: Inilah.com, Kumparan, Kompas TV, CNN Indonesia, and Detik.com. Data collection occurred between June and November 2025, focusing on videos with a minimum of ten million views. From each account, five of the most-liked comments were selected for semantic analysis. Both researchers independently analyzed the comments and compared interpretations to ensure reliability. The findings show that anger appeared most frequently (7 instances), followed by fear (6), sadness (4), disgust (4), happiness (2), and surprise (2). These results indicate that emotional responses on TikTok are often dominated by negative or serious feelings, reflecting users' sensitivity toward issues such as injustice, danger, and tragedy. Overall, the study concludes that affective meaning in TikTok comment sections not only represents individual emotions but also reflects collective empathy and cultural values within Indonesian digital discourse.

Abstract

This research investigates the linguistic construction of feminist meanings in Ava Max's song "Kings & Queens," focusing on the restricted relevance of Sara Mills' feminist stylistics to current popular music lyrics. Instead of viewing empowerment as a thematic result, the research examines how particular linguistic selections convey gendered roles and power dynamics. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, the analysis implements Sara Mills' framework at three tiers: (1) word choice (e.g., gender-specific nouns and judgmental terms), (2) syntactic arrangements (e.g., distribution of agency and modality), and (3) discourse structures (e.g., placement of voice and intended audience). The results suggest that empowerment in the song is not only claimed but built through a deliberate redistribution of agency, with female references taking on roles usually designated for male authority. Moreover, metaphorical frameworks like monarchy ("queen," "throne") serve as both representations of authority and as rhetorical instruments that subvert traditional gender hierarchies. At the discourse level, the lyrics depict women as both narrators and collective subjects, thus complicating the binary of subject/object representation outlined in Mills' model. These findings indicate that modern pop lyrics can reshape feminist stylistic patterns by merging personal agency with group identity. The research enhances theoretical understanding by broadening feminist stylistics beyond conventional literary works and showing how popular music conversations address gender using complex linguistic techniques instead of explicit ideological assertions.
