Gender identity, one of the most important social categories in people's lives, is socially constructed, and language is claimed to have a significant role in constructing the gender identity. This paper studies the construction of Sundanese women through five Sundanese nouns referring to women found in the corpus of Manglè magazine, published between 1958-2013. The research employs a mixed-method design in which quantitative analysis is combined with qualitative analysis to investigate how the nouns referring to women are used to construct Sundanese women from the periods of Guided Democracy (1958)(1959)(1960)(1961)(1962)(1963)(1964)(1965) to Reform Era (2004-2013. The quantitative analysis is used to examine the frequency of word occurrence diachronically. The frequency of word occurrence is subsequently interpreted qualitatively by considering social and cultural contexts, such as the norms of speech levels in Sundanese, Sundanese belief about marriage, and gender issues. The result of analysis shows that women are constructed in various identities by every noun referring to them. The lexical choices used to construct women are greatly influenced by the social and cultural contexts.
This paper was concerned with terminology of the social sciences and humanities in Indonesian scientific papers. Using electronic corpora built from the collection of texts on legal science and administrative science in Universitas Indonesia, the aims of the study was to illustrate how to integrate corpus linguistic method with the communicative theory of terminology (CTT) to examine terminology. Three procedures of corpus analysis were applied to assist in identifying two of the areas that terminological units must fulfil, i.e. the linguistic component and the cognitive component. The keyword and word clusters analysis were used to extract multi-word terms while the collocation analysis was used to derive the most significant sense categories of terms. Using corpus software, vis. WordSmith Tools, the corpus analysis presents some of the results showing that the linguistic component of terminological units can be traced through the technique of keyword and word clusters. In Addition, the cognitive component of terminological units was possible to investigate through the concept of semantic preference, one of the key concepts in corpus linguistics built from the analysis of collocation. Therefore, it can be concluded that a corpus-based approach to study terminology is considered to offer several benefits, especially to the activity concerned with the compilation, description, processing and presenting terms in a more reliable and efficient way. It may also provide an alternative method for creating glossary and for translators to resolve terminological problems.
<p class="TeksAbstrak">Among the debates on the choice of Indonesian term for woman, the present research examines the use of the gendered lexicon <em>perempuan </em>and <em>wanita </em>with the aim to reveal which term is more preferable and how the terms are used to talk about woman. Using corpus-based approach, the study compares frequency and pattern of word usage of <em>perempuan </em>and <em>wanita </em>from two corpora, namely IndonesianWac and ind_mixed_2013. The research uses a mixed-method design in which quantitative analysis is used to identify word frequency and to measure significant collocation, while the qualitative analysis is used to determine meaning on the basis of semantic preference. The study reveals that the word <em>wanita </em>tends to be more frequently used than the word <em>perempuan </em>to signify woman. In terms of meaning, both of the words are used to talk about woman in relation to body, especially their reproductive function, people particularly men, family, and age. The difference is that <em>perempuan </em>tends to relate woman with the issues of gender equality and organization, while <em>wanita </em>with sexual relationship. Furthermore, it strongly indicates that woman in relation to their public domain is denoted with the term <em>perempuan, </em>whereas the relation with domestic domain is denoted with <em>wanita. </em></p>
Bagi masyarakat pengguna internet, memiliki pengetahuan dan kecakapan menggunakan teknologi digital untuk mengakses dan mengelola informasi; membangun pengetahuan baru; serta berkomunikasi dengan orang lain agar terhubung dan berpartisipasi secara efektif di masyarakat adalah suatu keharusan. Oleh karena itu, kegiatan PPM ini berupa penyuluhan mengenai literasi digital kepada guru-guru SMP di Kota Sukabumi. Terdapat dua puluh orang guru SMPyang menjadi peserta kegiatan penyuluhan ini yang mewakili sebelas Sekolah Menengah Pertama yang berbeda di Kota Sukabumi, yaitu SMPN 1, SMPN 2, SMPN 4, SMPN 5, SMPN 6, SMPN 7, SMPN 13, SMPN 14, SMPN 15, SMPN 16, dan SMP Mardi Waluya 2. Literasi digital adalah istilah yang mengacu pada pengetahuan dan kecakapan menggunakan media digital, perangkat komonukasi, dan jaringan untuk menemukan, membuat, dan mengevaluasi informasi, serta menggunakannya secara bijak, cerdas, cermat, tepat, sehat, dan taat hukum dalam rangka menjalin interaksi dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Didasari oleh konsep tersebut, kegiatan ini ditujukan untuk membantu meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kesadaran para pendidik di tingkat Sekolah Menengah Pertama tentang dampak penggunaan teknologi digital sehingga mereka dapat memanfaatkan teknologi digital secara bijak dan penuh bertanggung jawab. Selanjutnya, pengetahuan dan kesadaran tersebut dapat mereka tularkan pada para anak didik mereka. Dari kegiatan penyuluhan ini, perubahan yang tampak dari adalah peningkatan pengetahuan para peserta mengenai cara berkomunikasi yang bijak di media sosial, perbedaan berita akurat dan hoax, dan bahaya ujaran kebencian bagi keharmonisan sosial.
The current research aimed at investigating the authorial identity through explicit self-mention markers (I, me, my, we, us, and our) in English research articles written by Indonesian authors. For this purpose, we employed a mix-methods research design consisting of two analysis phases. First, the quantitative analysis was represented by analyzing the frequency of self-mention markers in the corpus of 200 linguistics and applied linguistics research articles using the corpus tool AntConc ver. 3.9.5 (Anthony, 2020). The corpus was compiled from ten journals indexed in SINTA 1 and 2 in the latest five years (2017-2021). Second, the qualitative phase was represented by concordance analysis to interpret the discourse function of self-mention markers in use. We refer to Hyland's taxonomy (Hyland, 2002). Our findings have discovered that Indonesian authors use self-mention in various functions. This research shows the novice authors the extent to which authors can exploit self-mention markers in English research articles and how expert authors in reputable national journals use self mention markers to obtain essential functions to mark their authorial identity. Thus, this research is expected to add insight to EAP/ESL courses to encourage novice writers to construct and represent their identity in conveying their arguments firmly using these self-mentions markers.
