CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION
1.1Background to the Topic
A title plays an important role to an article. It is commonly the first thing that is seen by a reader. A title has to represent information of the content in an article.
In this report, it will be discussed about how the title in the article as one of referring expression has complex proposition. The complexities make reader difficult to understand the information in the title. The failure to interpret proposition can make miss interpretation, so it makes language does not carry out its function well.
Therefore, I think it is important to share how information is formed using proposition so the difficulties to understand the information can be avoided. Proposition can be understood as in following:
“A sentence contains certain information, but the same information can be presented in different sentences and in parts of sentences; the information presented, apart from the way it is presented, is called a proposition.” (Kreidler, 2002:62)
Understand the Titles of the Article in Journal of Engineering and Technological Sciences ITB”.
1.2Scope
This paper analyzes the proposition in the title of the article in Journal of Engineering and Technological Sciences of ITB. In this paper, I attempt to deliver a discussion about how a proposition is made in order to understand a title.
1.3Objectives
Other than to fulfill the job training course, the purpose of this paper is as in the following:
1. To chop out the propositions of the titles in the articles. 2. To describe the relations among the propositions in the titles.
1.4Significant to Knowledge
1.5The Framework of the Theory
In this job training report, I use Charles W. Kreidler’s theory of
proposition.
“A sentence contains certain information, but the same information can be presented in different sentences and in parts of sentences; the information presented, apart from the way it is presented, is called a proposition.” (Kreidler, 2002:62)
“Proposition contains one predicate and a varying number of referring expressions (noun phrase) called arguments, like a window, Albert. The predicate may be a verb, an adjective, a preposition, or a noun phrase.” (Kreidler, 2002:66)
According to the theory, proposition is the way to deliver information and it can be concluded that proposition is made by one predicate through paraphrasing the concepts existed in the referring expressions.
1.6Research Method
The method that is used to analyze the data in this job training report is descriptive method; the data is collected and analyzed based on the theory.
1.7Place and Time

CHAPTER III
THE DESCRIPTION OF THE TOPIC
3.1 Propositions
Proposition can be understood as follow:
“A sentence contains certain information, but the same information can be presented in different sentences and in parts of sentences; the information presented, apart from the way it is presented, is called a proposition.” (Kreidler, 2002:62)
The quote above shows an understanding that proposition is the way to deliver information. Furthermore, proposition can show relation between one proposition and other propositions in a sentence.
As a way to deliver information, proposition has an important role to show relation between one proposition and other proposition in a sentence. Proposition can be an easy way to understand an information or a message in a sentence for readers. However, proposition is not only in a sentence, it can be in a phrase or argument, as Kreidler said (2002:66)
“Proposition contains one predicate and a varying number of referring expressions (noun phrase) called arguments, like a window, Albert. The predicate may be a verb, an adjective, a preposition, or a noun phrase.”

CHAPTER IV
CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
4.1 Conclusions
According to the analysis, it can be concluded that:
1. The titles of the articles in ITB journal have complex proposition because they are combination of some propositions.
2. Proposition in the titles of the articles in ITB journal is made from noun phrase and prepositional phrase through paraphrasing the concept.
3. Proposition is made by showing the predicate in the concepts paraphrased. So it will show the relation between propositions in a referring expression. 4. Proposition makes the information in the titles clearer so it can be
transfered into bahasa indonesia as target language.
4.2 Suggestions
After finishing the research, I have some suggestion for the students who will take the research of proposition as in the following:
1. The student should find different data which has not ever been used in the previous research.
2. The student should find different method and theory in order to have better analysis.
