Abstract

COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) is a disease caused by a new type of coronavirus. WHO officially declared COVID-19 as a global pandemic. Both government and non-government parties work together to educate people and provide information about COVID-19 through various ways. Advertisement is considered as one of the effective ways to provide education and understanding about COVID-19. This study aims to discover the hidden messages in COVID-19 advertisements by analyzing the verbal and non-verbal signs used in the advertisement entitled “Stay Home Save Live”. The data were collected by using observation method and note-taking technique. The data were analyzed by descriptive qualitative method using semiotic theory proposed by Saussure (1983) and the theory of meanings proposed by Barthes (1977). The analysis was presented by informal method. The finding shows that both verbal and visual signs in the advertisement “Stay Home Save Lives” have hidden message. Generally, it delivers a message that during this difficult time, people can defeat COVID-19 by staying at home, obeying the health protocol, and being positive.

Abstract

Nias middle dialect is one of dialects used by people living on Nias island that administratively belongs to North Sumatra Province of Indonesia. The lack of studies on the language especially in semantics field was the main motivation in conducting this research. Another thing that also strongly supported the conduct of this research was a phenomenon in which some verbs semantically related to verb 'to cut' were rarely used by speakers of Nias middle dialect. Therefore, this study was conducted with the aims of discovering the verbs that have semantic relation to the verb “to cut” and describing the meaning of the verbs by employing the Natural Semantic Metalanguage theory of Wierzbicka (1996) in the qualitative research design. To collect the data, cakap method was applied which is supported by pancing and rekam techniques. In analyzing the data, padan method was applied. Based on the results of data analysis, it was revealed that there were forty-seven Nias middle dialect verbs that semantically related to the verb 'to cut'. In accordance with the results of the explication of meaning, the verbs can be classified into three groups, namely verbs that are done with tools, verbs that are done without tools, and verbs that can be done with or without tools. This phenomenon shows that Nias people do a lot of cutting activities in their social lives.
