<![CDATA[This study focuses on analyzing a presidential speech, Joko Widodo in his inauguration on October, 2014. In order to gain clear explanation about the transitivity and its modality also the ideology of Joko Widodo, Critical Discourse Analysis through functional linguistic analysis is employed. This metafunction analysis is based on Halliday & Matthiessen (2004) and Fairclough (1995). It is found that there are three processes used mainly by the speaker such material, mental and relational. The material process is utilized to state what happens, many linking verbs to state what is or should be and mental process to state what speaker thinks or feels about issue. Meanwhile, modality alludes to the point of view or conclusion of the speaker on the reality of a suggestion communicated in a sentence. Jointly, it expands their demeanor to a case or occasion that's characterized by a statement. Social cognition as the ideology of Joko Widodo shows the widespread use of non-public pronouns.

<![CDATA[This study explores the way male and female students use process types in recount texts to represent their experiences. To attain these goals, the qualitative design was employed and the main data were the students’ recount texts. The texts were then analysed using the transitivity framework, proposed by Halliday (1994), to unveil the representation of experiences by male and female students. The results indicate that the students from both genders have a quite identical way of representing their experiences. Both groups use a lot of Material, Mental and Relational-Attributive processes. The domination of these processes is high likely to be influenced by the social function and generic structure of Recount texts. Thus, in terms of process types, instead of gender, the genre has more influence on how students represent their experiences. ]]>
