HilalMadjdi, Ahmad. DwiNurcahyo, Agung. Mashuri, Hidayat, Dedy Syarif andFirdaus, Jalaluddin Al (2013).The Ideational Meanings of ”The Jakarta Post” Headline News on The Fuel Price Increasing Issue in April 2012.
Key words: systemic functional linguistic, ideational meanings, sequences ofmeaning, sequences of events, figures
In the perspective of language metafunction study, people use language to negotiate meaning which is influenced by the situation in their daily life. It also applies to the writer of newspaper when writing any segments of texts like headline news. It can be perceived that the writers write the news item by representing the functions of language in daily life. In this perspective, language is structured to make three kinds of meanings simultaneously, i.e. experiential or ideational, interpersonal, and textual.The objectives of the research are (1) To find out the sequences of meanings of the Jakarta Post headline news on the fuel increasing issue in April 2012, (2) To find out the sequences of events inthe Jakarta Post headline news on the fuel increasing issue in April 2012, (3) To find out the elements within clauses inthe Jakarta Post headline news on the fuel increasing issue in April 2012, and (4) To describe how people and things are classified, described and identified within the elements inthe Jakarta Post headline news on the fuel increasing issue in April 2012.
The research is a text analysis by using Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) theory. The data source of this research is the Jakarta Post headline news on the fuel increasing issue in April 2012, written during April 2012. The data of this research is the ideational meanings which were realized through texts of the head line news on the fuel prices rising issue. Referring to the analysis, the points of conclusion are (1) the classification imbedded in the phase sequences of the Jakarta Post headline news on fuel price-increasing issue in April 2012 are facts, comments, and quotations. (2) the sequences of events in the phases are found to be influenced by the collected information, covered by the author, which is used to support the idea for public consumption. The news item contains some events which are related to socio, political and economical situation in Indonesia especially concerning the issue of fuel price rising. (3) The sequences of events of the Jakarta Post Headline News on fuel price-increasing issue in April 2012, which are specifically concerned with the process is found to be realized in 228 figures of doing, 48 figures of saying, 33 figures of sensing, and 30 figures of being, and that (4)it is found that in expanding the meaning attributed to people and things, the author of the news item texts applies
v
classification to express categorical distinctions, description to express quality and qualifier, and identification to express possessive relation, facet and measure.
It is suggested that English students need to understand that language cannot be separated from society since language is a means of communication which is used by people to negotiate meaning. Therefore, the concept of Systemic Functional Linguistic is important to learn because it has an overview about functional language.Lecturer is suggested to make the English students aware about the important of understanding the concept of text and its practical use. News item is a real and factual sample of text which can be used by lecturer as a media of teaching. The research can be further developed into the other analysis on language metafunction. Researcher can keep in pace with the development of language use in society by analyzing actively the dynamic development of social, political and economical condition by considering what is published in newspaper and other kinds of news item.
