ABSTRACT

Dwiyanti, Arik. 2014. An Analysis of Cohesive Devices found in the Most Read

Column of the Jakarta Globe News post on April 2013. Skripsi. English

Education Department. Teacher Training and Education Faculty. Muria

Kudus University. Advisors: (1) Nuraeningsih S.Pd, M.Pd (2) Dr. Drs.

Slamet Utomo, M.Pd.

Key words: Cohesive devices, articles and the Jakarta Globe.

This research is focused on analyzing the cohesive devices found in the

Most Read Column of the Jakarta Globe post on April 2013 in which the devices

function as a way of getting text “hang together” as a whole as well as indicators

of text unity. The organization of those devices are categorized as cohesion which

is also considered as one of the elements helps the readers to be able to percept

and interpret language well especially written form.

For that reason, this study is intended to find out the kinds of cohesive

devices found in the articles of the Most Read Column of the Jakarta Globe News

post on April 2013 and how the cohesive devices contribute to the connectedness

and unity within the text of the articles.

This research is a descriptive qualitative research since it analyzes the

kinds of cohesive devices and how do the cohesive devices contribute to the

connectedness and unity within the articles. In this research, the data sources are

the articles of the Most Read Column of the Jakarta Globe post on April 2013. All

of the articles are going to be analyzed based on Halliday and Hasan‟s theory of

cohesive devices.

The results of the research show that all of the kinds of cohesive devices:

grammatical cohesive devices; reference, substitution, ellipsis, and conjunction

and lexical cohesive devices; reiteration which includes repetition, synonym,

superordinate, and general word and collocation found in the articles of the Most

Read Column of the Jakarta Globe News post on April 2013. And describe the

principle of cohesion used to the relevance of connectedness and unity within the

articles both through grammatical and lexical relations. Finally, the writer

concludes that all of cohesive devices found contribute to the connectedness and

unity within the articles found in the Most Read Column of the Jakarta Globe

News post on April 2013.

From this research, the writer suggests that we must pay attention for the

use of cohesion to make a good text. Cohesion can reduce confusion in

understanding the texts because we know how the sentences or paragraph are

related. The writer also hopes that this research will be beneficial for the students,

lecturers, readers and further researcher in order to use cohesive devices in

composition of writing a good text.

ABSTRAK

Dwiyanti, Arik. 2014. An Analysis of Cohesive Devices found in the Most Read

Column of the Jakarta Globe News post on April 2013. Skripsi.

Fakultas Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan, Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris,

Universitas Muria Kudus. Pebimbing: (1) Nuraeningsih S.Pd, M.Pd (2)

Dr. Drs. Slamet Utomo, M.Pd.

Kata kunci: Piranti Kohesif, artikel dan Jakarta Globe.

Penelitian ini difokuskan menganalisis piranti kohesif yang ditemukan

dalam artikel pada kolom the Most Read di Jakarta Globe News yang diterbitkan

pada April 2013 di mana perangkat kohesif berfungsi sebagai alat untuk

mendapatkan teks yang "menyatu" secara keseluruhan yang berindikasi pada

kesatuan teks. Kelompok dari piranti kohesif dikategorikan sebagai kohesif yang

juga dianggap sebagai salah satu elemen yang membantu pembaca untuk dapat

mempersepsikan dan menafsirkan bahasa dengan baik terutama dalam bentuk

tertulis.

Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini dimaksudkan untuk mengetahui jenis

perangkat kohesif yang ditemukan pada kolom the Most Read di Jakarta Globe

News pada April 2013 dan bagaimana perangkat kohesif berkontribusi pada

kekonektifan dan kesatuan dalam teks yang berbentuk artikel.

Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif kualitatif karena

menganalisis jenis perangkat kohesif dan bagaimana perangkat kohesif

berkontribusi pada kekonektifan dan kesatuan dalam artikel. Dalam penelitian ini,

sumber data yang diambil adalah artikel dari kolom the Most Read di Jakarta

Globe News pada April 2013. Semua artikel yang akan dianalisis berdasarkan

teori Halliday dan Hasan perangkat kohesif.

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa seluruh jenis perangkat kohesif:

perangkat kohesif gramatikal yang terdiri dari reference, substitusi , ellipsis , dan

konjungsi dan perangkat leksikal kohesif yang terdiri dari repetisi, sinonim ,

superordinat , kata umum dan kolokasi ditemukan dalam artikel pada the Most

Read Column di Jakarta Globe News pada April 2013 . Dan menggambarkan

prinsip kohesi yang digunakan untuk relevansi keterhubungan dan kesatuan dalam

artikel, baik melalui gramatikal dan leksikal. Akhirnya, penulis menyimpulkan

bahwa semua perangkat kohesif ditemukan berkontribusi pada kekonektifan dan

kesatuan dalam artikel ditemukan di kolom the Most Read di Jakarta Globe News

pada April 2013.

Dari hasil penelitian ini, penulis menyarankan bahwa kita harus

memperhatikan dalam penggunaan kohesi untuk membuat teks yang baik. Kohesi

dapat mengurangi kebingungan dalam memahami teks karena kita tahu bagaimana

kalimat atau paragraph saling berhubungan. Penulis juga berharap penelitian ini

akan bermanfaat untuk mahasiswa, dosen, pembaca, dan peneliti selanjutnya

sehubungan dengan penggunaan kohesi dalam susunan menulis teks yang baik.
