“…Because of discursive practices, social and cultural production varieties take place. Some characteristics related to CDA are presented by Amoussou and Allagbe (2018) in their research. The first one is related to the inter and multidisciplinary scope of the approach, since it can be used in several areas and for different purposes as long as the goal of the relationship between society and culture is achieved.…”

BTS has become a global phenomenon not only because of the different genres of their music, but for the messages conveyed in their lyrics and the cultural representation of Korean culture. This article presents an analysis of a BTS’ song that addresses a social difficulty based on the struggle faced by young Koreans related to education. Another aspect that makes this band’s music relevant is the complexity of their lyrics by using their mother tongue Korean and English in order to convey a message and target a broad audience when mixing both languages. The analysis of the song is anchored in critical discourse analysis following Fairclough’s three-dimensional model. The results of the analysis demonstrate how flexible language use illustrates young Koreans’ views on society and more specifically in education. In order to understand a social problem in their country, this paper analyses how the artist used language to illustrate and give voice to the generation they represent.

“…Critical discourse analysis is the most effective analytical tool, it has been used in various linguistic settings, among which transitivity has been discussed as an analytical tool (Shuo et al, 2014). There are various approaches to critical discourse analysis methods, including the methods of Fairclough, Van Dijk, and Wodak (Amoussou & Allagbe, 2018). Fairclough Fairclough (2003) defines CDA as a form of critical social science that is directed to illuminate the problems faced by people by certain forms of social life and to contribute resources that people might use in dealing with and overcoming these problems.…”

At this time the whole world is being attacked by a virus called the Corona Virus or Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a type of virus that attacks the human respiratory system. This disease due to viral infection is called COVID-19. COVID-19 is a polemic that causes concern for the community due to its rapid spread and even causes many deaths, including in Indonesia. The condition of this social situation makes a lot of news done, one of which is related to prevention with social distancing published by Detikcom. This study aims to conduct a critical analysis of articles about COVID-19 on Detikcom. This research uses a descriptive method. The object of the research is an article entitled "Tentang Social Distance, Cara Pemerintah Cegah Penyebaran Virus Corona" released on Monday, March 16, 2020, by Detikcom. Data analysis was performed using Fairclough's critical discourse analysis. The results show that the text in the discourse has been selected using the appropriate words to represent the expectations of a social distancing policy and is also able to represent the social conditions of the panicked community with the outbreak of COVID-19. The discourse in the text has also been able to provide feedback in the form of the social conditions of the community which can be a little calm with the existence of the policies that have been released as well as the direct role of the government and the credibility of Detikcom. The ideology is related to influencing society in implementing social distancing for the success of Government programs. Thus, this research will foster public confidence in dealing with this coronavirus and influence to implement social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“…Critical Discourse Analysis in its distinct manner, now not a homogenous version, nor a faculty or a paradigm; however, it is far more than that, at most a shared angle on doing linguistics, semiotics, or discourse evaluation (Amoussou, 2018;Ledin & Machin, 2017;van Dijk, 1998). Giving power to written and spoken texts (Flowerdew & Richardson, 2017), Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) is necessary for describing, decoding, and critiquing social life contemplated in the text (Luke, 1997).…”

Purpose: The primary purpose of the present study is to analyze the speeches of PM Imran, which he delivered to persuade the economic organizations and masses for fundraising on the first and 4th April, respectively. Method: The research is qualitative and analytical. The primary data was collected from the speeches and telethons on two well-known news channels of Pakistan. Theoretical/secondary data have been collected from various online sources. The data were analyzed employing Fairclough’s 3D model—Textual, at the first step, processing, at the second step, and finally the social implication(s). Main Findings: The textual analysis suggests that the Prime Minister deliberately focuses on the lower class—‘people’ of Pakistan. Therefore, he persuaded the local individuals and the international organizations; more, he also conquered the minds of Pakistani ex-pats living in foreign and convinced them to send aids and foreign remittances. These speeches also immediately affected and motivated the local non-profit services organizations and masses to help others throughout the pandemic. Hence, the public figure (celebrities or characters) also promoted the idea of Prime Minister). Application of the Study: The study suggests the techniques for the speakers how they would manage to make balanced speeches under challenging times. Various linguistic techniques are employed and tested adopting from the other researchers, which may also be helpful for future researchers. Hence, general social individuals would also find the cultural referents for the economic fundraising techniques utilizing the linguistic technique; for instance, Imran Khan successfully employed these to collect the funds for hospitals, universities, and the state. The Originality of the Study: According to the researchers' best knowledge, the study is innovative as no such type of study was conducted in the context, i.e., the context speeches relevant to fundraising. This research argues that a parliamentary system is a more desirable and efficient system of government than others. This research explains the differences between both these systems. Both the houses of these parliaments provide different services that require separate investigation and throw further light on the subject.
