Abstract

The use of meta-discourse in academic spoken or written texts has been widely investigated. However, the existence of meta-discourse as a meaning-making in informal contexts such as gossip pages remains unaddressed. This present study investigates the frequency of word classes and the use of meta-discourse markers as the meaning-making practices in the gossip columns of Insert Live and Lambe Turah. The selection of these two online media platforms is grounded in their pragmatics and national coverage. The data collection of this research utilizes the corpus method. Data were gathered from Insert Live and Lambe Turah gossip columns.  In accordance with Hyland's theory (2005), the focus of this study is on comparing the word list frequency and functions of meta-discourse markers in the gossip columns in online media. The finding reveals that Insert Live tends to emphasize object-related elements, while Lambe Turah tends to underscore event-related aspects in gossip reporting. Besides, Insert Live tends to use meta-discourse markers in gossip columns to provide clarifications derived from informants, while Lambe Turah employs meta-discourse markers to steer readers’ opinions toward believing a particular issue by producing accusations using speculative language.

Abstract

Braga Street, Bandung serves as a public space with multilingual activity namely language contestation, showcasing the intersection of historical, cultural, and modern linguistic influences. This study examines the dynamics of language use on Braga Street, where Sundanese, Indonesian, and English coexist and compete in public signage, business communication, and cultural expressions. The method used is the mixed method called explanatory sequential design method with photograph data collecting method and interviews done with five shopkeepers. The result shows that English domination in sign is unbearable although the law regulates the language used in public space. English serves the purpose as a common language and a global language, supported by shopkeepers' statements using English made it easier for customers to locate their stores. As a result, Westernization has been a significant driving force behind the signs. This research highlights how language act as a tool for preserving local wisdom and embracing modernization.

Abstract

Kadyatmikan, a core aspect of Balinese spiritual teachings, is a secondary modeling system that offers guidance toward spiritual balance and moksa (liberation) through practices such as self-control, meditation, and harmony with nature. This study investigates the meaning of Kadyatmikan in the Tutur Tegesing Wisik Warah text, through Yuri Lotman's (1990) cultural semiotics framework. Using a descriptive qualitative method, this research identified and analyzed the symbolic elements and spiritual codes within the text. A heuristic reading method was applied to uncover surface-level meanings, such as narrative structures and linguistic features, and connotative reading to explore deeper symbolic and cultural interpretations. The analysis focused on the interaction of these elements with the Balinese cultural semiosphere. The findings highlight the symbolic relevance of teachings like Sad Ripu and Yoga (meditative practices), demonstrating their role in fostering self-realization and cultural identity. Discussion emphasizes the dual function of these teachings: preserving Balinese spiritual values and addressing contemporary challenges through cultural adaptability. The research contributes to empirical studies of cultural semiotics and conceptual explorations of traditional wisdom in modern contexts

Abstract

Greetings serve as a means of expressing the identity of a region. Adat greetings have been preserved within tribes or small community groups, stemming from ancestors' lives in each area. The Wemale and Alune tribes hold significant positions and have played a crucial role in disseminating the Maluku language. This study aims to explore adat greetings through the lens of language structure. Employing a qualitative research methodology with an ethnographic approach, the research was conducted across eight sub-districts in the Western Seram Regency (SBB). Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and Focus Group Discussions (FGD). The data were analyzed using the four phases of the Spradley Model, which encompasses descriptive, structural, and contrastive analysis, and thematic analysis to understand the nuances of language structure at both macro and micro levels. The findings revealed that the indigenous people of SBB possess at least 20 adat greetings. Eleven of these have been proposed as conventional greetings for official occasions, while six are recommended for use as conventional adat greetings during adat ceremonies or official events. These adat greetings are intended to signify a significant milestone in the renewal and sustainability of the languages of both tribes in a regenerative and sustainable manner.

Abstract

Translation of legalese archaisms considered as a bedrock on comprehending the content of deed agreement in legal documents. Since society has been so close to digitalization, they often use machine translation and artificial intelligence as a tool assisted on translation, resulting in discrepancies of the meaning and nuance contained in the archaisms of source language. Departing from this, this research aims to describe the common inclination used on the translation technique of legalese archaisms in legal documents and its implication. This research uses a qualitative descriptive approach. The data of this research are obtained from three legal documents; Power of Attorney, Deed of Termination, and Memorandum of Understanding. The data collected by using the close observation techniques. Afterwards, the data will be analyzed using the translation techniques by Molina and Albir (2002), and the translation designation theory by Lawrence Venuti (1995) to find out the common inclination on the translation results of these three variables. After conducting a thorough analysis on the translation techniques, the researchers concluded that the translation of the legalese archaisms by machine power and artificial intelligence applied foreignization as the common inclination on the translation process. On the contrary, the translation result of human expertise applied domestication as the common inclination.
