Abstract

This research discusses the representation of turn-taking strategies in the 2022 election debate of Australian Prime Minister. Therefore, the purposes of this research are to identify the types of turn-taking strategies, to find out the dominant type of turn-taking strategies, and to investigate the non-verbal signals of turn-taking strategies in the 2022 election debate of Australian Prime Minister. In doing this research, the writers used a descriptive qualitative method to analyze the selected data which are taken from three YouTube channels of Australia, and the data were classified based on the theory of turn-taking by Stenstrom (1994) and the theory of non-verbal signals by Yang (2011). As a result, the writers found 299 utterances containing turn-taking. The writers found that the debaters used all kinds of turn-taking strategy in their utterances. But, the most dominant turn-taking strategy used is holding the turn (178 utterances), followed by taking the turn (108 utterances), and yielding the turn (13 utterances). The debate is dominated by holding the turn strategy because the debaters were always trying to hold their turn to express their points of view. In order to hold the turn to speak, the debaters mostly used verbal fillers (124 utterances)—can be seen in appendix A—which gives the biggest contribution to the percentage. The rest are not give as big contribution as verbal fillers. And there are 5 situations where the debaters are noticed using non-verbal signals such as body movement, hand gestures, head movement, and facial expression, in order to take, to hold, and to yield their turn.

Abstract

This research is entitled "Figurative Languages Used in Paulo Coelho's Novel 'The Alchemist'." This study aims to analyze the types of figurative language in the novel "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho using Perrine's theory (1977). The analysis method used refers to the semantic approach by considering Leech's (1969) theory to explore the meaning in various types of figurative language. The research data were obtained from the extraction of 92 figurative language sentences consisting of simile (24), metaphor (36), personification (27), hyperbole (1), antithesis (2), parallelism (1), idiom (1), metonymy (2), and paradox (1). The analysis also identified two main categories of meaning that are frequently used, namely associative meaning and connotative meaning. The findings provide deep insight into how Coelho utilizes different types of figurative language to enrich the reader's experience and convey profound messages in "The Alchemist". This research is expected to contribute to the understanding of literature and the use of figurative language in modern literary works.

Abstract

The purpose of this study, which focused on the novel Percy Jackson & the Olympians: the lightning thief by Rick Riordan, was to examine the many types of signs used in the novel that focused on the object, namely icon, index, and symbol it contains. This study used a descriptive qualitative methodology and Pierce's semiotic theory as its theoretical framework. Using note-taking as the primary research instrument, the data for this study were gathered from the novel Percy Jackson & the Olympians: the lightning thief by Rick Riordan. The analysis's results showed that Pierce's semiotic theory can be used to understand the meaning of these three sign components, especially as it relates to the relationship between their object, representamen, and interpretant. For example, the visual of big marble frieze in the novel is the icon of Greek gods; the blood that comes out is an index of a scar; and a black-and-white bull’s horn is a symbol of Minotour.
