Abstract

This thesis is aimed at reporting the analysis on the ideational meaning realised in the written discourse in online newspaper on Abdul Qodir Jaelani (AQJ). Under a discourse analysis method, the data were collected through retrieving twenty texts on the discourse of AQJ from some online newspapers. The texts on the discourse of AQJ are analysed using the framework of systemic functional linguistics which is realised based on the ideational meaning as suggested by Halliday & Matthiessen (2004). The findings reveal that there are 1043 participant types (2%) involve throughout the texts. Meanwhile, there are 712 process types (3%) involve, and there are 274 circumstance types (7%) involve throughout the texts. Hence, the existence of participants is more dominant than processes and circumstances available throughout twenty texts. Based on the findings, it is recommended that the English teacher can apply discourse analysis as the approach to analyse the texts in teaching the English learners about how to analyse the clauses of the texts to enhance their ability in analysing the text both journalistic texts (hard and soft news) and classroom texts (text types).

Abstract

This study examined the use of teachers’ basic questionings of Sydney Micro Skill (1983) in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL). There were nine components of teachers’ basic questionings, namely structuring, focusing, phrasing, redirecting, distributing, reacting, pausing, prompting, and changing the level of cognitive demand. The objectives of this study were to describe the types of basic questionings, explain the teachers’ ways in keeping the students active to respond their questions and explain why the teachers use those teachers’ basic questionings. It was a qualitative research which was also supported by quantitative data. It used audio visual, observation/field note and interview to collect data. The result showed that most of English teachers applied those nine components to build a good classroom interaction and the dominant was distributing. The teachers had four ways in keeping the students active to respond their questions; they used questions randomly, interesting medium while delivering the questions, active in motivating the students, and promoted a group discussion. Moreover, the teachers also had reasons why they used those teachers’ basic questionings, such as to find out the students’ attitudes, determine the students’ understanding, and to motivate and appreciate the students.

It indicated that they had a good ability to manage the classroom. In dealing with the academic language functions, it was found that all of the teachers had not used all kinds of academic language functions yet. It indicated that the teachers gave input more to the students by informing as mostly used. The result of this study revealed that the problems faced by teachers in using English were related to grammar,vocabulary, and pronunciation.  Employing social and academic language functions are crucial for teachers. Social language functions maintain the social relationship among the teacher-students especially in managing the classroom.

Abstract

The fourth semester students of the English department of Muria Kudus University are suggested to take Academic Field Trip in order to provide the studentssome experiences outside of their campus. By observing the English Departmentstudents interactions with English speakers from other countries, I expect that I can gainclear illustrations on their abilities in maintaining good conversation by applyingappropriate speech functions in the conversation. The main purposes of the study aredescribing the speech functions chosen by the students and the foreigners, explaining therole relation enactment among them, and also describing the contribution of speechfunctions in language education. The data of this study are transcriptions of the studentsand the foreigners oral communication. I classify the speech functions produced by theparticipants into the speech functions classes introduced by Eggins and Slade. The resultsof the study over the four conversations show that the opening speech functions areproduced mostly by the students; it indicates that the students play as the initiators. Theforeigners show their respect and appreciation to the students as they respond to thestudent initiations by producing more responding and continuing moves. The number ofturns and moves produced by the students and foreigners are quite similar; it indicatesthat both of the participants get the same chance to take their roles. The foreigners astourists show they interest to some tourism objects by describing to the students someobjects they have visited and by comparing to their own country. Learning languagecannot be separated from its culture, therefore speech functions and culturalunderstanding should be taught in the classroom as part of language discourse.

Abstract

Translation plays an important role in learning foreign language. Translating, however, is not an easy task because each language has its own rules in phonetic, structure and word. In order to achieve the equivalence, there are some techniques involved in translation process. This study was to analyze the use of translation techniques in subtitling the Dhaup Ageng documentary movie, to find out which translation techniques were mostly used and to investigate the ways in which the translation techniques were used. This study used descriptive-qualitative approach to describe the results of the analysis of translation techniques. The object of the study was the subtitle of Dhaup Ageng documentary movie which consist of 77 utterances of Sri Sultan Hamengkubuwono X. The findings indicated that literal translation was applied in 19 excerpts, compression was in 13 excerpts, borrowing was in 9 excerpts, transposition was in 8 excerpts, linguistic amplification was in 7 excerpts, amplification was in 4 excerpts, compensation was in 3 excerpts, calque, established equivalent and reduction were applied in 2 excerpts, while adaptation, description, discursive creation, generalization, modulation, substitution, particularization and variation were applied in 1 excerpt. Based on the results, literal translation was the most dominant technique used in subtitling process. It might be used properly if the context required the use of such technique.
