Abstract

This study aims to describe the variations in the use of the word "keadaan" ("state") in news about the DPR's demands demonstration and to map its meaning categories based on the Natural Semantic Metalanguage (MSA) approach. This study uses a qualitative method with documentation techniques on online news texts containing the word "keadaan" ("state") and collected from various national news portals during the period of August–September 2025. The analysis was carried out in three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions based on the Natural Semantic Metalanguage theory of Wierzbicka and Goddard (2014). The results of the study found 20 words variations that represent five main categories of meaning of "keadaan" ("state"): stable and positive states, negative and chaotic states, states of density/mobility, psychological/emotional states, and uncertain states. The dominant semantic primes are PEOPLE, HAPPEN, and GOOD/BAD. This study confirms that the MSA approach is effective in explaining the meaning of state words in a simple but profound way, while at the same time shows that media language shapes socio political perceptions through lexical choices

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the language development of 18-month-old children with a focus on the Mean Length of Utterance (MLU) based on the frequency of social interactions and responses to gadgets. This study adopts a psycholinguistic approach, particularly Emergentist Approach (2022), to explain how competing language cues from social interaction and gadgets shape children's utterance development. Data were obtained from transcripts of children's utterances in the context of daily interactions with parents and when dealing with gadgets using a mixed-methods descriptive approach. The analysis was carried out by grouping word types using Kridalaksana's (2005) morphology theory and calculating the length of the number of morphemes per utterance, then averaging them to obtain the MLU value using Brown's (1973) theory. The research results show that six types of words were used during social interactions: nouns, verbs, numerals, adjectives, adverbs, interjection and variations of foreign languages were also found. Meanwhile, the responses to the gadgets only used two types of words: nouns and interjections. Furthermore, the development results the total MLU of children is at 1.64, which is included in the normal development stage according to the age range of 12–26 months according to Brown’s Stages of Language Development. If reviewed based on context, MLU in social interactions reaches 1.8, whereas MLU response to device is only 1.0. This shows that children are more capable of producing long, varied, and complex utterances when interacting with their parents or their environment, while responses to gadgets tend to be limited to single-word utterances or non-lexical vocalizations.
