This study used a qualitative descriptive approach framed in a semiotic analysis, specifically Barthes’ (1991) orders of signification to examine the myths in each Internet meme. The myths of the Internet memes then were analyzed using the USA’s values and assumptions theory proposed by Althen and Bennett (2011). The findings reveal that there are eight myths of Americanization which are delivered globally through the Internet memes. Those are individualism, freedom, equality, materialism, and informality.

Abstract

The present study entitled The Javanese People’s Attitude towards Sundanese Language aims to find out the Javanese people’s attitude towards Sundanese language and their reasons to have such attitude. This research is a case study which involved five Javanese people working in a catering service company in Bandung as the respondents of the study. Data were collected from observation, questionnaires, and interviews. To analyze the data, some theories were applied; the theory proposed by Garret (2010) was utilized to analyze the components of language attitude that determine whether the attitude is positive or negative, whereas the theory from Holmes (2001) was employed  to investigate the reasons why they have such  attitude. Based on the data analysis result, it shows that the respondents tend to communicate in Sundanese language in their daily conversation. It also can be seen from the percentage of Sundanese language they used (28.06%) indicating that it is higher than the percentage of Javanese language used (3.96%). Regarding to the respondents’ attitude towards Sundanese language, the findings refer that most of them have positive attitude due to their approval to use Sundanese language in their daily conversation. Keywords: Javanese, Attitude, Sundanese Language

Abstract

The study is entitled "The Use of Slang Words among Junior High School Students in Everyday Conversation." It aims to investigate slang words used by the ninth grade students. This study also investigates the morphological processes involved in slang words and the reasons why the students use them in their everyday talk. The collected data from questionnaires and interviews were categorized into the types of slang words and analyzed in terms of their morphological processes by using a method of analysis based on theories as proposed by Yule (1985), Potter (1975), O'Grady and Guzman (1996), and Gerber (1968). These data were calculated in terms of frequency presented in tables and charts. The findings show that there are eleven groups of morphological processes in this study. Coinage is the most frequently used with 30.56%, followed by blending with 20.14% and borrowing with 13.19% words. Furthermore, there are some reasons influencing appearances of slang words, namely students want to say something in an easy way, show their anger, make other people confused, and want to have fun and laugh. Thus, future researchers are recommended to conduct studies on different slang users in different settings because slang changes and increases through time.Keywords: slang words, morphological processes, coinage, blending, borrowing.

Abstract

The present research investigates how animals as characters are represented in Indonesian and English fables and the authors’ worldview through the fable they rewrite. It is descriptive with the element of quantitative in the form of percentages. The main theoretical framework of the research is transitivity and theme-rheme as proposed by Halliday and his followers. “Si Kancil dan Siput” and “The Tortoise and The Hare” which were downloaded October 2012 from childhoodreading.com and www.ceritaanak.org have been  used as the source of the data. The research finds that Indonesian author sees animals as the sayer (verbal process), and usually do things without too much considerations, while English author sees animals as the being (behavioural process), in which besides doing actions, animals also sense it. Furthermore, English fable considers participants of the events as the important aspect in the story, and as the departure of events more than Indonesian fable does.  Keywords: SFL, Transitivity, Theme-Rheme, Thematic Progression, Fables, Worldview

Abstract

This research paper entitled “American Idiot”: Examining Readers’ Subject Position in One of Green Day’s Music Albums is aimed at investigating the ways by which the sixth album of Green Day, American Idiot (2004), ideologically positioned the implied readers in opposite to the USA political agenda. A qualitative descriptive study is employed in this present study. In analyzing the album, which consists of 13 songs, three theoretical frameworks are used: ideological analysis by John Lye (1997), context framework by Adrian Beard (2001), and John Stephens’ (1992) narrative transactions—where he locates the implied readers as the ideological function of a text. By having those frameworks within the analysis, the study discovers five socio-cultural issues, recognized as an attempt to position the implied readers in opposite the US political agenda in Bush administration. These assumptions within the issues known as a subject position are ideologically offered to the readers or the implied readers through narrative aspects; point of view and narrator. Keywords: implied author, implied reader, subject position, ideology, narrative.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the translation shifts of nominal groups that occur in The Martian movie subtitle, and investigates how the translation shifts affect meanings. This study employs a qualitative descriptive method as proposed by Cresswell (2007). The data of this study are taken from the movie transcriptions and subtitle in The Martian (2015) movie. The data are analyzed by using Gerot and Wignell’s (1994) theory of nominal groups and Catford’s (1965) category of translation shifts which include structure shift, class shift, unit shift, and intra-system shift. The analysis shows that the process of translating involves single and double translation shifts. In single translation shift, structure shift is the most dominant translation shift (75,7%). In double translation shift, the most dominant shift is the combination of structure and intra-system shift (12,6%). The analysis also shows that the translation process involves the combination of unit and intra-system shift (0,8%), and the combination of class and unit shift (0,3%). The translation shifts are found affecting meanings. There are 37 nominal groups which experience changes in meanings due to the translation shift strategy. The implication of the study relates to the significance of understanding linguistic features as a choice to convey certain meanings in another language.Keywords: Translation Shifts, Nominal Groups, meaning shifts, subtitle
