Imagery used in Saudi news headlines related to the Coronavirus (Covid-19), Fadi Maher Al-Khasawneh. The researcher selected some news headlines from two newspapers (i.e. The Himalayan Times and The Kathmandu Post).
Methodology
Data Source
The results of this study showed that English news headlines from The New York Times newspaper contained the three types of metaphors, and the researcher provided an example for each type. Chen (2018) investigated the use of one figurative feature in news headlines, which is a metaphor, while Chuang (2012) investigated the use of only two figurative features in news headlines, which are metaphors and metonymy.

In the current study, this type of figure of speech was used seven times, contributing to (6.9%) of the total use of figurative language. This type of speech figures occurred 6 times and this contributes to (5.9%) of the total speech figures used in this study.
Conclusion
There was only one case of metonymy and this contributes to (0.9%) of the total figures of speech used in this study. The context of the current study is to investigate the use of figurative language in news headlines related to the Coronavirus.
Acknowledgments
On the other hand, the use of figurative language can be dangerous, as not all readers can interpret the actual meaning that figures of speech intend to convey. Future research is recommended to explore the use of figures of speech following other theories such as Verdonk's and Rozaki's theories.
The current study examined the types and functions of figurative language in Saudi news headlines related to the coronavirus (COVID-19). In fact, the current study focused on figurative language in connection with a new pandemic, which we all hope that Almighty Allah will avoid this sorrow as soon as possible. https://jurnal.uisu.ac.id/index.php/lingualliteracy 276 Nationally accredited SINTA 3, and indexed in DOAJ and Copernicus.
SHE, ROBOT: MALE CHARACTERS’ MECHANISATION OF OPHELIA IN SHAKESPEARE’S HAMLET
Zanyar Faiq Saeed
Abstract
Introduction
Because she cannot act independently, she always needs external directions from the male characters (Chen, 2011; . Olivas, 2015). Although the above-mentioned scholars provide useful and interesting information relevant to the theme of the present paper, none of them have referred in a systematic way and in modern technological terms to the process of Ophelia's mechanization by the male characters.
Research Method
The newspaper claims that Ophelia's male-dominated environment denies her the freedom to think, speak and act. Ophelia's tragic end could be a wake-up call that applying too much pressure would most likely wreak havoc on individual and social levels.
Results and Discussion
- Laertes: “Think it no more”
- Polonius: “Think yourself a baby”
- Hamlet: “I loved you not”
Believing that she is unaware of the risks of such relationships and that it is unwise to trust Hamlet's offers of love, she belittles her: Second, Hamlet's unusual behavior and ambiguity about their affair made her believe her brother's and father's warnings much more.

Based on this theory, the findings of this study prove that there are adjacent pairs in the conversation between the lecturer and the students in the pragmatics class.
TRANSLATORS AS MEDIATOR: CULTURAL NEGOTIATION IN TRANSLATING ENGLISH LITERARY TEXT INTO INDONESIAN
- Cultural Terms
- Cultural Negotiation
- The variety of ecological terms found in the ST and its two translated versions
- The variety of material culture found in the ST and its two translated versions
- The variety of social cultures found in the ST and its two translated versions
- The variety of social, political, and administrative organizations found in the ST and its two translated versions
- The variety of gestures and habits found in the ST and its two translated versions
Translation products rely on the concept of translation ideology, which is used in translation as part of the negotiations. In the same case, as mentioned in extract (3), the word 'ivy' was translated as 'ivy' in TT1 (using the ideology of alienation) and 'tanaman merambat [vines]' in TT2 (using the ideology of domestication) .
Acknowledgements
On the other hand, the word 'rusak' in Indonesian does not have the same meaning as 'spoiled' and 'petty'. The deviation in meaning may be considered intolerable to an informed reader, as 'rusak' can have different evaluative meanings, although the three words 'rusak' (devastated), 'manja' [spoiled] and 'pemarah' [petty] are also loaded. with negative connotations.

ADJECTIVES IN THE EXPRESSION OF EPISTEMIC MODALITY IN APPLIED LINGUISTICS RESEARCH ARTICLES
Attapol Khamkhien
Interactions in academic writing and taxonomy of metadiscoursal features
In terms of metadiscourse, Hyland (2013) discusses that metadiscourse refers to the self-reflective expressions used to negotiate interactive meanings in a text, help the writer express a point of view, and interact with readers as members of a particular community. They also assume that metadiscourse only serves to help the writer organize a text and be persuasive by appealing to rationality, credibility, character, and emotion (Hyland, 2005).
Epistemic modality markers and epistemic adjectives in academic writing
A number of studies investigated the use of metadiscourse markers in academic texts in terms of different variables such as genres, disciplines and languages. Similarly, Blagojevic (2004) attempted to examine the use of metadiscourse markers in research articles written by English and Norwegian researchers in three different fields.
Data compilation
Thus, the literature has shown that the use of epistemic modality markers is critical for writers of academic texts and research articles to enhance their credibility in the context of scholarly communication. The corpus for the current study includes 255 research articles published in two leading journals in the field of EAP and applied linguistics: the Journal of English for Academic Purposes and the International Journal of Applied Linguistics.
Research procedures
Given the fact that the target journals contain not only research articles, but also reviews, commentaries and editorials from a wide range of researchers and subfields, each of the articles was carefully checked for content, as their genres differ, and only the articles with the document type "research articles" was selected. Throughout the study, extracts from the research articles in the corpus were used to illustrate the emerging arguments.
Use of epistemic adjectives in applied linguistic research articles (RA)
The given code is shown in parentheses after each excerpt to facilitate the analysis process when referring to the article in the corpus. https://jurnal.uisu.ac.id/index.php/languageliteracy 439 Nationally accredited SINTA 3, and indexed in DOAJ and Copernicus. The adjective 'clear' is the third most important epistemic modality adjective found in the corpus.
Typical phraseological patterns of core epistemic adjectives
- It + Verb + Adjective + that clause
- Be + ADV + likely + to-infinitive Clause
Lines of agreement for it V-link probable, that-sentence pattern in the corpus. The epistemic meaning expressed by probable in this pattern is one of probability, a much stronger epistemic force than epistemic possibility. Therefore, the at-clause in the it V-link ADJ at-clause pattern is as important as the other parts of the syntagm when it comes to inferring the epistemic meaning expressed by 'possible'.
