“…Possibly, there was an approach to the structural layer of language use that utilized the functional perspective to describe the underlying construction of information in specific language forms that speakers spoke or wrote. Although, the systemic functional linguistics (henceforth: SFL) can serve as the theoretical basis for addressing language use in political communication (Eggins, 2004;Halliday & Matthiessen, 2013;Hasan, 2009;Martin, 2016;Matthiessen, 2019). If the Pragmatic Analysis or Discourse Analysis describes the speaker-hearer meaning of language usage, the SFL analysis describes the structure of information from the speaker's or writer's perspective.…”

The speech of Indonesian stakeholders (SIS) is ideal for not only discourse analysis but also as an instance of language employed for systemic functional linguistics (SFL). According to the SFL perspective, the use of morphosyntax and morphosemantics features in the speech of the Indonesian ministry of state secretariat (MSS) is an expression of informational content that has been incorporated into the structure of language. The objective of this study was to describe the informative content in the form of a topical theme in the SIS practices conducted by the MSS in 2019-2024. The data for this study consisted of transcribed utterances taken from speeches by MSS. The MSS official broadcasting platform and other relevant YouTube channels were the data providers. Documentation, transcription, and comprehensive textual fragmentation techniques were used to collect and analyze the data. The results demonstrated that, with relation to the SFL, practically majority of the studied MSS utterances contain topical theme. The topical theme has been organized using phrases and sentences. Additionally, the topical theme has served as both a standalone theme and a component of multiple themes. This study proposal pertains to a more in-depth examination of the interrelationships between topical theme and other sorts of theme or rheme.

Introduction: This paper aimed to analyze FCE and Summit books which are among popular English language teaching textbooks. In particular, this study was an attempt toward the objective analysis of reading passages by finding the differences and similarities of the books in terms of their processes. Methodology: To conduct the study, a corpus of 1964 clauses from reading passages of the two books named Ready for First Certificate of English FCE and Summit was formed, classified, and coded. The corpus was then analyzed based on Halliday and Mattheisen’ (2004) transitivity system. Results: The findings of the study revealed that there were significant differences between Summit and FCE books in terms of relational, existential, and verbal processes. Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that analyzing the schemas of the texts not only reveals the mindsets of their authors, but also can be an objective method for better understanding of a text The results were also discussed from an educational perspective, and suggestions were made for future research.
