<![CDATA[This study describes discursive and social practices in Instagram captions used by celebrity endorsers in promoting cosmetic products. This study employed a qualitative descriptive design in order to describe a critical discourse analysis. As the participants in this study, three celebrity endorsers are randomly selected based on their verified Instagram account, and they used Instagram actively for business and product promotion purposes. The data were obtained from Instagram captions of three celebrity endorsers. Additionally, this study's analysis technique is a descriptive-analytic method through the process of collecting and compiling data analysis. The data is then analyzed using a critical discourse analysis method based on Norman Fairclough’s, such as discursive practice analysis and social practice analysis. The results reveal that discursive practices applied by celebrity endorsers are utilized to motivate consumers to buy and use the products. The strategies used by celebrity endorsers are real testimonials, clinical evidence, and inspiring words. Besides, the social practice of products promoted by celebrity endorsers can have the power over society because the language used in promoting cosmetic products can trigger people’s desire to become consumers of those products. Therefore, the existence of celebrity endorsers who are healthy, beautiful, attractive, and charming can feel an emotion in the ability to control people in the beauty perspective among them. ]]>

<![CDATA[This paper is the result of meta-lingual research on the application of Haley's metaphor theory. The research objective is to analyze and evaluate whether Haley's metaphorical theory concept is appropriately used and applied in the research data. The research design is qualitative with analytical-descriptive, conceptual-empirical, and literature methods. The data source is in the form of six scientific articles that apply Haley's metaphorical theory and have been published in six different scientific journals in Indonesia. The research data consists of two types of data, namely (i) main data in the form of meta-lingual data and (ii) auxiliary data in the form of object language data. The results of data analysis and discussion indicate that there are conceptual errors in the application of Haley's metaphorical theory in the six data sources. Generally, these mistakes can be grouped into three categories, namely errors in understanding (i) Haley's definition of metaphor, (ii) hierarchical terms of perceptual space, and (iii) application of the hierarchical concept of Haley's perceptual space in the analysis of metaphorical expressions. The main cause of these errors is that (i) Haley's theory is not referenced directly from Haley and (ii) only one of Haley's writings is referred to. Thus, the research results in that data source eventually become questions.]]>

<![CDATA[Metaphors are generally used as a way to construct an abstract or difficult-to-understand concept in a human's mind. However, the metaphor of sexuality tends to disguise or cover one thing with another. This phenomenon is easily found in the comment section of women's Instagram account. This research combined the semantic and pragmatic perspectives in critical metaphor analysis and implemented qualitative methods to reveal the language attitudes and social elements that underlie the metaphor of sexuality. The research questions are (1) how is the conceptual mapping between the source and target domain of sexuality metaphors, (2) what types of metaphors are found, and (3) how are language attitudes and social elements that trigger the production of metaphors. The results showed that metaphors are widely used to refer to female breasts as inanimate objects. On the other hand, men's sex organs, men's thoughts, and men's gazes are described as animate objects. This shows how women on social media are seen as objects that can trigger and satisfy men's desires.]]>
