Abstract

Language is a powerful tool that can be used to shift or produce ideologies, and language is a tool utilised in product marketing. Using Fairclough’s three-dimensional critical discourse analysis model, five Indonesian powdered milk television commercials are analysed to explore the utilised linguistic devices and marketing strategies. The social impact and implications of the advertisements are also studied. As a result, it can be concluded that advertisements are used by companies or brands to persuade people into purchasing and consuming their products, and advertisements have the power to influence consumers by utilizing linguistic devices and strategies. Advertisements also often evoke fear or feelings of inadequacy in potential consumers to persuade them into complying with the claims made in the advertisements.

Abstract

Interpersonal meaning is concerned with the way language users build up or maintain appropriate relationships with others in society. In Halliday (2014)’s view, it is through the interpersonal metafunction that users of language establish, and take a position on people, things, and situations in social relationships. Interpersonal expectations, which are implicit in the IELTS assessment criteria (Nakamura, 2009), are widely recognized as contributing to the quality of IELTS essays. Drawing on Systemic Functional Linguistics developed by Halliday as an analytical tool, the present study explores how interpersonal meaning has been deployed by IELTS candidates in IELTS high-scoring exposition and discussion essays. 90 sample essays from published books and official IELTS websites are selected as data for text analysis. The descriptive method is used to give a detailed description of interpersonal meanings under the two major systems: mood and modality in the light of Functional Grammar with a view to illuminating the salient linguistic features of IELTS academic essays written by highly successful test-takers, thereby providing IELTS test-takers with a better understanding of how to tactically manipulate the aspects of modality and mood choice, thus attaining success in writing IELTS academic essays.

Abstract

Gestures alongside language constitute one of the essential semiotic resources in an English classroom interaction. It is based on the credence that the meaning-making in any English classroom discourse is realised not only through a language as a semiotic resource, but gestures constitute the other determinant semiotic resources that might facilitate the effective instructional practices and assist students’ English learning. However, scant scrutiny of the way a native English teacher uses gestures in an EFL classroom setting was still found. Thus, the present study aimed to investigate one of the British sitcoms, Mind Your Language. This film is worth investigating for it tells about a native English teacher teaching pupils with multicultural backgrounds. A systemic functional multimodal discourse analysis (SF-MDA) focusing on the ideational metafunction was employed to analyse the artifact, the British sitcom. The findings reveal that various types of gestures were employed by the teacher. Also, the gestures deployed had significant roles and functions, i.e. not only help visualise the lesson learned but also indicate the teacher’s state or condition as well as state during the lesson delivery. Lastly, it suggests that English teachers should take into account the co-contextualising relation between semiotic resources for it might lead students to achieve the expected outcome of the curriculum.
