Qualitative and quantitative methods were applied to analyze the result of the findings. English Grammar competence test (IELTS model test) was given to determine the subjects of the research Grammar competence. The English pragmatic test was given to determine the subject of the research competence on English pragmatic. The subjects of the research were grouped into 3 (three) categories; group A which consist of subjects whose English Grammar competence are at basic level (IELTS score 5 to 6), group B consists of subjects whose English Grammar competence are at intermediate level (IELTS score 6 – 7) and group C consists of subjects whose English Grammar competence are at Advance level (IELTS score above 7). Each group consists of 5 individuals, who have no prior information of the test model and the aims of the research.

The students’ diary can be defined as a brief narrative text created by students that might be a brief summary of what they have learnt, teachers’ feedback and evaluation, or even a general impression about their writing process. It aims to naturally encourage students to conduct a comprehensive reflection on their progress in EFL writing through “a diary” in each writing class they have.

The researcher tried to investigate how the typical of student’s diary for learning reflection is, how the real implementation of student’s diary is conducted in EFL learners’ learning process, and to what extent it can be effective related to the strengths and weaknesses involved in the implementation process. Advisory and suggestion on giving corrective feedback regarding linguistic aspects in students’ writing in the use of student’s diary as well is presented as the implication of this research for further related studies

It is the syllabus of Same-Sex Marriage in the United States that become the object of the research. This research aims to identify the engagement devices and examines how engagement system in the syllabus of same-sex marriage legal document of the United States that indicates the meaning and relation with the readers. The theory proposed by Martin and White of engagement system (2005) based on appraisal system is used to support the analysis. From the analysis, the researcher found there are 116 heteroglossic and 37 monoglossic types from 153 clauses. The presence of heteroglossic as the most type indicates that the petitioners not only made themselves as references or data sources, but also they tried to add many references and other brackets as data and facts that strengthen their statements. In addition, the presence of 'pronounce' type as the most type in heteroglossic as contract shows that the petitioners made many straightforward and assertive statements. These statements are representative of the assured feeling of the petitioners after seeing the fact that the same-sex marriage was discriminated. The presence of 'entertain' type as the most type in heteroglossic as expand shows us that the petitioners support same-sex marriages so that their rights can be recognized in the United States. Petitioners attest the ideals life of same-sex marriages who will be peaceful and prosperous like the hetero-sex marriages. Because they believe that marriage is fundamental right for all citizen.

Abstract

Online media or digital media is an internet based communication technology to share and to exchange the latest information throughout the world. This study aims to investigate the lexical diversity of editorials section published in English online media from across ten countries; Egypt, UK, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Russia, USA, Pakistan, Singapore and Nigeria. By using a batch mode of web-based interface to the lexical calculation proposed by Laufer and Nation (1995), namely Second Language Lexical Frequency Profile (L2LFP), this paper focused on the production of tokens, types, type-token ratio (TTR) and academic words of ten online English newspaper editorials from two native English countries and eight non-native English countries. The results show that an editorial published in The Today Online newspaper from Singapore consists the highest score of tokens (987), types (431) and academic words (52), but the least score of TTR (0.44). Nevertheless, the highest score of TTR is not produced by The Today Online. The highest score of TTR (0.60) is gained by The Pakistan Today, even though The Pakistan Today only consists 273 tokens, 223 types and 38 academic words. Despite of Laufer and Nation’s (1995) argumentation that native writer has higher TTR’s score than non-native writer, this paper showed different results. The native online newspaper: The Guardian from U.K and The New York Times from USA has TTR’s score of 0.48 and 0.47. Meanwhile, most of non-native online newspapers has higher TTR’s scores.
