Abstract

Religious terms are the terms and expressions whose source is obtained anddominated by the book of one religion or more. This research aims at exploring the religious terms and expressions found in the book of "Islam: A Short History", their types, meanings, and examples of religious term and expression. This article is qualitative research in which the researcher explains the types and examples of the religious terms found in the book. There are 14 religious terms (10 from Newmark, 1 from Alghamdy, and 3 from Yulianita) that have been found in previous studies, but those (14) above have not covered all the religious terms in the book. After researching the book of Islam: A Short History, the researcher found 1 (one) new term needed to be included in order to accommodate all religious expressions, so it’s 15 after all. This 1 new religious term (owner of the religion) is the split from the previous term (supernatural being). It is separated because of the mismatch between the type and example. Moreover, after the research, religious terms are classified into two, namely Arabic and non-Arabic. They are classified based on how much impact of the Arabic gives to the religious term.

This research is aimed to analyze the translation of Processes in the Expository Texts of `Ask Barbara: The 100 Most-Asked Questions about Love, Sex and Relationships`. Translation is expressing ideas in one language into another. In Systemic Functional Linguistics perspective,representation of ideas into language is part of the Ideational Meaning which focuses on the Process (verbal phrase) as the core of the clause. The SFL approach to translation studies should provide the technical terms as the linguistic evidence to account for the equivalence in the syntactical elements of the clause. The research question is: what are the Processes in the Expository Texts in Ask Barbara: `The 100 Most-Asked Questions about Love, Sex and Relationships`? The objective of this research is to find out the types of Process in the Source language (English) and those in the Target language (Indonesian).

Abstract

This paper explores swearing utterances in English language use, the hearers referred to, and the functions the utterances imply.  Accounts on the issue are taken from the English-language-affiliated Websites in the Internet. This research is a literature review with interpretative techniques and employs a coding analysis with three proposed premises. As the findings, swearing utterances belong to informal English with notorious, casual, heteregeneous, inconsistent, irregular, and speaker-dependent aspects. Swearing utterances have elaborated literal meaning and creative meaning to various contexts, which are personal and private. Swearing utterances to others are rude, offensive, profane, or obscene, as expressions of anger; however, when adjusted to the context of hearer, the meanings or functions vary. Swearing utterances to others create rude and offensive situations. However, swearing utterances to close people through jokes and possitive connotations may instill solidarity or confirm camaraderie. Swearing utterances concerning internal expressions or expletives function to intensify the messages.
