Abstract

The global pandemic known as Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has an impact on the use of language. The language used in COVID-19 news is frequently unfamiliar to the general public or even made up just for the pandemic. The goal of this study is to examine the word formation of COVID-19-related terms used in The Jakarta Post, BBC, and CNN portals. There are two research questions in this study, they are: (1) What are the types of word formation processes found in terms related to COVID-19? (2) How are the words related to COVID-19 formed? Moreover, this research uses Lieber’s theory (2016). This study uses a qualitative methodology. The findings of this study show that there are seven types of word formation: affixation, compounding, coinage, backformation, blending, clipping, and acronyms and initialisms. The conversion type is the process of word formation that has not been discovered. Words related to COVID-19 are formed by adding or removing an affix, combining or blending two words, expressing a specific object, and abbreviating a word. It can be concluded that many terms related to COVID-19 are the result of a word formation process that aims to form new words that will certainly give different meanings and different word classes from the original word. In the future, this research can be useful for readers who are looking for definitions of terms related to COVID-19, as well as for those who are interested in morphology or the field of word formation processes.

Abstract

This study aims to find power relations in the novel Eleven Minutes by Paulo Coelho. The researcher focuses on analyzing the forms of power relations between Maria and the male characters in the novel and her resistance against them. This study applies the power relations theory initiated by Michel Foucault. This type of research is classified as literary criticism with a sociological approach. Data collection in this study used documentation techniques by reading and highlighting sentences, dialogues, and quotations. Furthermore, analyzing the data is carried out by classifying, interpreting, analysing, and drawing conclusion. The result of this study indicates that Maria has power relations with the male characters in the novel. The male characters are the boyfriend and Malfson as the partners, the owner of a draper shop, Roger and Milan as the employers, the Arab man, Terence, and Ralf Hart as the clients. The forms of the power relations between Maria and the male character show that Maria has power over the male character by threatening and utilizing her beauty. Conversely, Mary is also often placed as a powerless party over the power exercised by men, such as being controlled and deceived. The resistance carried out by Maria was the resistance through discourse and disobedience. The resistance through the discourse was the summoning of a lawyer for an exploitative act committed by one of her employers. Meanwhile, the resistance through disobedience was carried out by refusing the pimp's orders by leaving from working as a prostitute in the Copacabana bar.

Abstract

Racism has been a prevalent issue ever since the concept of race was known to mankind, due to this fact, a lot of kinds of racism emerged in society.This study explained the experiences of Callum and his family through the levels of racism as well as how they responded towards the racism itself in the novel Noughts + Crosses by Malorie Blackman. This study itself is a literary criticism focusing on sociological approaches by employing two theories, one by Camarra Phylis Jones named levels of racism (2000) and the second one is multimotive theory by Richman & Leary (2009). Based on the analysis of this study, the first level of Jones’ theory seems to be the most prominent out of the three which is the institutional racism, the characters in this novel were restricted or has limited access to quite a lot of government infrastructure, silenced voice, as well as small quantity of representative in power. While the personally-mediated racism manifested itself through the suspicion of minorities; especially Callum, lack of respect from the Crosses, devaluation of minorities’ capabilities, scapegoating, and dehumanization through hate crime and police brutality. In internalized racism there is also evidence of whiteness as in Lynette’s case where she believes herself to be black as well as self-devaluation by the characters themselves for example Ryan who used the slur word to his own race. Callum and his family responded with various types of response, such as Jude who is leaning towards being more aggressive after the experience of racism while Callum at least try to regain relational value within the society with relationship-promoting response as well as trying to exclude or withdraw himself from the society with avoidance or withdrawal response.

Abstract

In June 2022, people in the United States, especially celebrities were shocked by the news of the murder. The manager of actor and rapper Ludacris, Chaka Zulu, was accused as the murderer. With that accusations, he receive various negative reaction from the public. Chaka’s legal team immediately held a press conference to sway public opinion and in that occasion, it could be found social actor representation. Among the many pieces of research regarding social actor representation, research that investigate spoken discourse is rarely carried out. Therefore, this study aims to investigate exclusion and inclusion strategies used by lawyers when representing social actors in press conference. This study uses van Leeuwen’s social actor representation theory (2008). It uses a descriptive-qualitative method to ensure clear data analysis. The data were obtained from the FOX 5 Atlanta YouTube channel. This study reveals that lawyers use exclusion and inclusion. The lawyers used more inclusion than exclusion. Moreover, the most frequent sub-inclusion strategy is role allocation, as active and passive roles allow lawyers to show who is guilty and who is not. Meanwhile, the most frequent exclusion strategy is suppression, it allows lawyers to eliminate actors and emphasize others. Future studies is recommended to explore other van Leeuwen approaches. Future studies can also use other spoken discourse as research topics, for example press conference with public relation or others.

Abstract

Everyone may participate in online discussions in this digital age. One of the platforms they can use is Quora. They exchanged their ideas and got information from other users on the COVID-19 vaccine controversy, which has been widely discussed since the epidemic. They can reveal (real account) or conceal (anonymous account) their identity. Then, to avoid debate between users, speakers must use politeness strategies adapted to CMC. This study aims to identify differences in politeness between real/non-anonymous and anonymous in the comments column on Quora in discussions about the Covid-19 vaccine controversy. This research is included in the descriptive qualitative research with a pragmatic approach used to describe linguistic data related to the forms of politeness strategies found in the analysis. Then, the data were taken from netizens’ comments on the five discussions users most discussed from January 2021 to September 2022. The researcher used the theory of Brown and Levinson (1987), which has been adjusted by Nikzam (2013) and Park (2008), to analyze data on the CMC context. This study found that the most widely used politeness strategies were negative ones, followed by positive politeness, off-record, and bald-on record. However, the researcher also found that speakers use linguistic devices to convey interpersonal and affective attitudes in online communication. The tools used are abbreviations and emoticons that aim to simulate gestures and facial expressions (Park, 2008). Further research is needed to determine politeness in CMC (Computer-Mediated Communication) on different discussion platforms.

Abstract

Grammatical cohesion is research that analyzes how each word, phrase, or sentence is connected in a text. The researcher conducted this study to identify the types of grammatical cohesion and know how these types work in news texts. Researchers chose to use a qualitative descriptive approach in conducting this research. The data source in this study is an online news text published on Wednesday, 19 October 2022, by The Jakarta Post entitled "Russia Bombs Cities Across Ukraine at Rush Hour in Apparent Revenge Strikes." To examine the news text, researchers used the theory of grammatical cohesion developed by Cutting (2002). After conducting the analysis, the researcher found thirty-five (35) forms of grammatical cohesion out of the thirty-three (33) datums found in news texts. Of the total findings, thirty-two (32) are reference forms, and the remaining three (3) are ellipsis types. On the other hand, substitution is not found in the war news text. The type of reference most often used is the endophora in the form of anaphora (13), followed by exophora (10), associative endophora (7), and endophora in the form of cataphora (2). From these findings, each type of grammatical cohesion has its role in the news text. The reference type works as a tool to refer to a reference point in the text. Meanwhile, the ellipsis type works as a tool to remove words or phrases that are deemed unnecessary. Even so, both types of grammatical cohesion function to avoid word repetition.
