Abstract

This research aimed to identify appraisal system in tourism editorial texts in SINDOnews.com news portal, particularly to identify attitude, graduation, and engagement as well as to know how the writer positions himself in his writing and public response on the issue. This research applied Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) theories and is designed with an embedded case study. The data were taken from a tourism editorial text in SINDOnews.com with the total number of 70 out of 30 sentences. The data were then analyzed with appraisal system theory proposed by Martin & White (2005). The result shows the existence of attitude (affect positive/negative), judgement (social esteem positive/negative: normality, capacity, and tenacity; social sanctions positive/negative: veracity and propriety), appreciation (reaction, composition, and valuation positive/negative), graduation (force: Intensifier, attitudinal lexis, metaphor and focus: sharpen and soften) and engagement (monogloss and heterogloss). The data mostly found are graduation which consists of force (8 intensifiers, 6 metaphor, and 2 qttitudinal lexes) and focus (6 sharpen and 8 soften). The texts themselves emphasize values, public opinions, author’s attitude, and show the beautiful and the selling point of tourist destinations in Bali. It means that the writer shows the positive perception subjectively whereas the society shows the positive and negative perception objectively in the texts.

Abstract

This study discusses representative speech acts in digital comic discourse created by Mohammed Arif Vakil and Mohammed Ali Vakil reflecting the religious moderation among societies. The comic discourse campaigns for the importance of tolerance between human beings. The analysis focuses on the reflection of religious moderation in one chapter entitled ‘Ethic’ which describes the relation among human beings. The chapter is chosen due to its message which focuses on relation among people. The data of this research were obtained from the whole texts and pictures in the chapter. The texts in the comic became the main data whereas the images were put as secondary data. These data were then processed and classified into several speech act classifications proposed by Searle. The result shows that the most dominant speech act performed by the comic maker is representative speech acts. Meanwhile the directive speech acts are commonly used to give the direct moral lessons. The chapter reflects religious moderation in three points i.e. (1) applying good attitudes to others; (2) reflecting the moral value; (3) helping others without hurting the feelings by applying the representative and directive speech acts to convey the religious moderation. The representative speech acts function as the utterances of giving statement and admitting about something related with good deeds and never hurting others while the directive speech acts functions as the utterances of requesting, asking, and recommending certain things. The directive speech acts take the roles as the directive meanings on moral values.

Abstract

This linguistic research adopted a descriptive qualitative approach that focuses on the syntactic structure of sarcasm expressions. The data for this study were collected from the popular television series Friends, which focused on the character Chandler Bing. Bing was one of the most known characters among various sitcom series with iconic sarcasm. This study aimed to identify the complexity of the syntactic functional structures including adjuncts, specifiers, and complements. Employing the x-bar theory for analysis, the study categorized the collected data into complex adjuncts, complex specifiers, and complex complements, accompanied by their respective x-bar schemas and thorough explanations. The results showed that Bing's sarcastic expressions exhibit complexity across a variety of functional structures with the various word categories as the construction. The most common complex form was identified in the complement structure. This study contributed to a nuanced understanding of syntactic aspects of sarcasm, especially within the linguistic framework of his x-bar theory.

Abstract

This descriptive-qualitative research explores the processes configured in Lampungese language clauses. Here, the processes are structured in clauses showing physical actions, feelings, thinking, relation, behaviour, and existence. It investigates the processes using Hallidayan transitivity system and focuses on the constituents forming a clause, such as participant, process, and circumstance. In order to keep a natural setting, the data of this research were collected by documentation from passages of six lesson books of Lampungese language. The results of analyses show that the process of doing is realized with nyeghbu, ngemulai perlawanan, ngelawan, ngebantu, ditulis and diteghusko, whereas the mental process is constituted by nyeghah, ngenal, nganggop, and dikenang. Meanwhile, the realization of relational process is dimaksudko, which is classified as an identifying relational process. It is also found that a relational clause can be structured without any relational process. The disappearance of the process can be categorized as zero relational process and marked with 0.  The result of this research is expected to give a contribution to document the structure of the Lampungese language.

Abstract

This article investigates salient components in Bali shopfront signages to discover the intended meanings behind the use of the signs and the use of English and its counterparts, in particular local/national languages, in them. Two approaches employed are geosemiotics–to construe the meanings of the signs–and linguistic landscape–to reveal the role of English and its counterparts in them. Bali, specifically Kuta was selected as the most affluent tourism area and is chosen due to the fact that it experiences the apparent change in its linguistic landscape. The former approach covers three prominent elements, such as interaction order, visual semiotics, and place semiotics, conceiving the whole message the sign makers convey. Meanwhile, the latter focuses on the revelation of the visibility of English and the local and national languages in the signages and the revelation of their implied meaning. The collected data are 10 signages, as these are most representative data to select, in terms of the outright blends of English and its counterparts. The result of the analysis indicates some facts conceiving interaction, visual and situational meanings. English was mostly found in the type of businesses, the offers and products, and slogan. The visibility of English along with local/national languages and their influence in all selected data indicates modernity, efficiency and effectiveness, luxury, being communicative, non-traditional manner, and happy-go-lucky sense. The Indonesian and local languages are reported to be used as the names of the shop, and as referring to either low-budget or affordable prices of products or culturally/locally bound reason.

Abstract

This study explores women's roles and societal expectations in the 19th century, mainly as portrayed in Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. The analysis focuses on three main areas: family, education, and societal roles. In family life, women were largely confined to domestic roles, with ideals such as ‘the angel in the house’, which glorified self-sacrificial wives and mothers. Jo March, the main character in the novel, however, challenges this norm by assuming the responsibilities of the ‘man of the family’ in her father’s absence. In education, women’s access was limited, reflecting broader inequalities. Mrs. March, or Marmee, becomes a pivotal moral teacher to her daughters, instilling values that transcend material wealth. Despite societal constraints, Jo and her sisters navigate personal and financial challenges, with Jo ultimately breaking traditional gender norms by pursuing a career as a writer. This study further reveals how women’s opportunities were shaped by class and how marriage was often seen as the only path to social mobility. Overall, this paper highlights how Little Women reflects the limitations and opportunities for women in the 19th century, challenging prevailing gender stereotypes through its portrayal of women’s independence, ambition, and resilience.

Abstract

The Majapahit Empire has been a source of inspiration for writers of historical fiction, such as Gigrey with his novel Mada. Unfortunately, these historical fictions have the possibility to make readers experience misunderstanding in comprehending history. Therefore, this study aimed to reveal to what extent historical deviation can be considered as creativity and not deviation and whether it can be considered a deviation when the writer develops the history excessively. This study employed a descriptive-qualitative method and used Lindbald's theory of historical fiction for analyzing the data. The result shows that there is a historical narrative that can be categorized as creativity because it is so imaginative and does not trap readers in false history. Meanwhile, one form of creative change in the novel that traps can be seen when Nertaja is told as Tribhuwana Wijayatunggadewi's adopted son. Because of these creative changes, many readers are trapped in a false history as evidenced by the comments on Goodreads. This is exacerbated by promotional narratives about the author's extensive research, making common reader even more trapped in the falsehood.

Abstract

This research examines how Asharq al-Awsat and ALQST media framed the NEOM infrastructure project in Saudi Arabia. NEOM is a futuristic city project that is part of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030. The project is designed to be the center of technological innovation, environmental sustainability, and economic development in the northwestern region of Saudi Arabia. It also explores the framing tools used and their impact on public perception and global outlook. This research uses a qualitative approach with Gamson and Modigliani’s framing analysis. The results show that Asharq al-Awsat tends to frames the NEOM project as a form of technological progress and innovation that provides economic benefits. Meanwhile, ALQST highlights the negative impacts such as human rights violations and environmental damage. These framing differences affected public perception and political discourse regarding the project. This research expands the understanding of how the media frames large infrastructure projects in the Middle East region. In addition, it reveals the implications of framing for public perception and international policy regarding infrastructure projects and human rights.
