Abstract

This study is motivated by the avoidance of unlucky numbers in some areas of Bali. This is not in line with the beliefs of Balinese people who generally don’t believe in unlucky numbers. This study aims to analyze the causes of the phenomenon using a qualitative research approach. Data were collected using direct observation, questionnaires, and interview responses. The results of the data analysis show that there are groups of people who know of the existence of unlucky numbers, but only a small proportion believe in it. The phenomena of unlucky number avoidance could be concluded as a business strategy.

Abstract

This paper aims at describing the multimodal discourse analysis of linguistic form and images in the “Explore Flores: Komodo Island” video. The study focuses on the ideational meaning and representational meaning of spoken texts and visual modes. This is a qualitative study that uses the Systemic Functional-Multimodal Discourse Analysis approach. The researchers gathered the information by capturing some shots of “Explore Flores: Komodo Island” video. The results showed that the “Explore Flores: Komodo Island” video is a video made by an individual private party that has both promotional and persuasive value. Based on the results of the ideational meaning analysis, the appearance of the participant as a dominant carrier indicates the clarity and firmness of the persuasive meaning of the video maker to protect the sea around Komodo island tourist spots. Representational meaning is explained through conceptual meaning and narrative meaning. Based on the conceptual meaning, the video describes the symbolic icons of the tourism spots in Komodo Island, Flores including its Komodo Dragons, the ocean, the sunset seen from Komodo Island and other magnificent natural scenery. Based on the narrative representation, action and reactional process dominate the promotional video. Action process is presented in various activities shown by the park guard and the visitors, meanwhile reactional process is shown by smile on the face of the children and woman who are visiting the Komodo Island to show happiness of being in the tourism spot. The study contributes significantly to the theory of multimodal discourse analysis viewed from the phenomena of spoken text and visual modes.

Abstract

In today's digital era, the expansion of language has been rapidly developing, allowing the representation of a word to shift or even for the meaning of that language to change. Moreover, in a language, the concepts of open and closed word classes are recognized, where open word classes are those that will continuously change and expand, while closed word classes are those that are unlikely to ever change or grow. Currently, among young people, the term "The Nuruls" has become popular. This term is derived from the concept of a person's name, even though linguistically, the word "Nurul" comes from Arabic, meaning "Light." Interestingly, the word "Nurul" is preceded by the article "the," which originates from English. The combination of morphemes "the" and "Nurul" creates a unique meaning among young people, indicating a significant shift in meaning. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to examine the semantic shift observed in the phrase "The Nuruls" and to identify the markers that represent this phrase. This study employs a semiotic approach to explore the meaning shift in the phrase "The Nuruls." The research uses a descriptive qualitative method, which is employed to describe the data descriptively, and the analysis will also be presented in a descriptive manner.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze language errors in posts and comments on Lambe Turah's Instagram account in 2022. This study uses the theory of language errors related to word structure proposed by Ghufron as a theoretical basis. The method used is a qualitative descriptive approach, which focuses on the analysis of data collected from the comments column on the Lambe Turah account. Data collection was carried out using the read and note method, where researchers actively read and recorded various language errors found in user comments. The main data source for this study came from various comments posted on the account during 2022. The results of the study showed that there were 37 forms of language errors identified, including errors in basic words, prefixes, clitics, reduplication, acronymization, and prepositions. This general study provides an overview of the extent of language errors that occur in communication on social media, especially on platforms like Instagram, and how variations in these forms of errors can be verified and analyzed based on linguistic theory. These findings are expected to contribute to further research in the field of linguistics, especially related to language phenomena on social media.

Abstract

Yogyakarta is a multilingual centre with educational institutions, residential areas, workplaces, culinary establishments, and many more. Palagan Street is one of the busiest areas with various linguistic elements, especially on culinary signage. This study aims to examine the types of language patterns found on culinary signs that signify linguistic diversity and to describe the linguistic strategies used in the signage. The observation technique was conducted by photographing 69 signage on Palagan Street, which showed that most of the signs used Indonesian. A descriptive qualitative method was applied to analyze the linguistic strategies used. The findings show the dominance of bilingual signs (49%) in Indonesian-English, followed by monolingual signs (44%) in Indonesian, and multilingual signs (7%), which include Indonesian-Japanese-English. The linguistic strategies identified include code-mixing, symbols, speech acts, abbreviations, figurative language, lexical blends, schemes, and politeness strategies. This research contributes theoretically by providing insights into language use and strategies in culinary signage in the linguistic landscape of Yogyakarta and practically by providing information on design considerations for multicultural public spaces.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the differences in linguistic elements that appear in the government rules relating to PPKM (lockdown) issued by the central government and provincial government referring to the same thing and also to analyze the multiple interpretations that appear in the two regulations. Forensic linguistics is the basis of the study in this research on the text of the PPKM rules. The data analyzed in this study is the text of regulations regarding PPKM published between the central government and provincial government using a qualitative descriptive method (Bungin, 2015), and applying content analysis techniques. The results of this study indicate that there are a number of contradictory or different applications of the rules referring to the same point or item between the main rules of the central government and the derivative rules by the provincial government regarding PPKM activities. With those differences in the two rules, this could make the community or people as the object or target of the rules get confused and have the potential to violate the rules themselves. Based on these results, it is necessary to synchronize or match the main rules from the central government and the rules from provincial governments as derivative rules so that people will not get confused and have the potential to break the rules. In addition, ambiguity of meaning can also be avoided.
