Abstract

The objectives of this research are to analyze the use of positive politeness strategies and the number of positive politeness strategies found in Mark and Eric Nam's podcast using the theory of Brown and Levinson. This research is designed using a qualitative descriptive method, which involves explaining the utterances and purpose of the conversation in Mark and Eric Nam's podcast, related to positive politeness strategies. Research data was obtained from the episode of "Mark of NCT 127 Naver Stops Talking, Can Anyone 'Fact Check' This Convo? Twenty-six data points of positive politeness strategies are found on the podcast. The results show, the most frequent politeness strategies are strategy 2: Exaggerate (interest, approval, sympathy with Hearer), 8 data. Strategy 3: Intensify interest in Hearer 6 data. Furthermore, Strategy 5: Seek Agreement 4 data. Strategy 4: Use in-group identity markers 3 data. Strategy 1: Notice, attend to Hearer (interests, wants, needs, goals), 1 data. Strategy 11: Be optimistic 1 data. And then, Strategy 15: Give gifts to Hearer (good, sympathy, understanding, cooperation) 1 data. The most frequent politeness strategy shows how the speakers in that podcast respect each other and keep the conversation on the same point of view.

Abstract

Code-mixing is part of linguistics. Many people use code-mixing in everyday conversation, for example, often found when in a mall, supermarket, or restaurant. Code-mixing is the use of one language unit in another language. Code-mixing occurs when the speaker enters a foreign language into a more dominantly used language. Besides, the urge to code-switch between Indonesian and English in restaurants in Indonesia is driven by various linguistic, social, and cultural factors. This phenomenon is particularly noticeable in urban areas and tourist hotspots, where English is increasingly integrated into everyday conversations.  This research uses descriptive qualitative method to investigate the use of code-mixing applied by waiters and customers at Pizza Hut Gunung Sahari. As a result of the analysis, it can be found that there are two types of code-mixing used in conversations between waiters and customers at Pizza Hut Gunung Sahari. The writer also found six reasons of code-mixing: Bilingualism, Speaker and Partner Speaking, Social Community, Situation, Vocabulary and Prestige. Based on Khairuna’s theory, using Code-mixing can increase knowledge in other languages, and if overeating is used, it will have a harmful effect because the speaker will always rely on code-mixing and can change the speaker's accent.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the relationship between language and socio-cultural structure by comparing the inaugural speeches of President Joko Widodo (2014) and Prabowo Subianto (2024) through the lens of Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis. The research seeks to answer the following questions: (1) How are linguistic choices used to represent the leaders’ political vision? (2) What ideologies are embedded in their speeches? and (3) How do discourse practices reflect broader socio-cultural contexts? The findings indicate that Joko Widodo’s inaugural address foregrounded the ideology of populist nationalism through emphasis on “hard work,” “mutual cooperation,” and “unity,” reflecting an image of collective struggle and inclusivity. In contrast, Prabowo Subianto’s speech articulated an ideology of authoritative reformism, marked by discourses of corruption eradication, food self-sufficiency, and “polite democracy,” which positioned him as a strong leader seeking order, moral authority, and national sovereignty. While Jokowi’s discourse leaned toward constructing solidarity among the people, Prabowo’s discourse sought legitimacy through the language of discipline and protection of national dignity. These results demonstrate that inaugural speeches not only present policy directions but also construct ideological positions that shape political legitimacy.
