One of the basic mediums in the interaction between doctor and patient in the treatment room is language. This paper, hence deals with the conversation in doctor-patients interaction in Pirngadi General Hospital in Medan, Indonesia. Clauses in the conversations were adopted as the main research data. The analysis is based on the theory of Systemic Functional Linguistics pioneered by Halliday (2004). The research was conducted by applying top-down approach from the analysis of the consultation in terms of context of situation that is concerned with register variables covering field, tenor and mode. Then, the analysis further focuses on the experiential function in terms of transitivity system covering the analysis of the processes used the participant functions involved and the interpersonal function covering mood and modality. The study was conducted by using descriptive qualitative method with triangulation. It refers to the use of multiple methods or data sources in qualitative research to develop a comprehensive understanding of phenomena. Triangulation is viewed as a qualitative research strategy to test validity through the convergence of information from different sources. The results of the analysis have revealed that social relation exists in the language used by the doctor and the patient in their interaction in which the doctor has more power over the patient.

هدف هذا البحث إلى استقراء المبادئ الكلّيّة الّتي حكمت ولا تزال تحكم علم أصول الفقه الإسلامي في تعامله مع النّصّ الدينيّ، وتعيينها، وعرضها عرضاً موجزاً. هذا العلم الذي يرسم منهجيّة البحث بالنّسبة للعلوم الدّينيّة الأخرى والفكر الإسلاميّ بعامّة. وقد استطاع الباحث أن يتوصّل إلى اثني عشر مبدأً، هي تقريباً محلّ اتّفاقٍ بين الأصوليّين. وهذه المبادئ هي: 1) الاحتكام إلى النّصّ. 2) صِدْق النّصّ ومعقوليته. 3) شمول النّصّ بلفظه ومعناه للوقائع. 4) عموم النّصّ في الأشخاص إلى يوم القيامة. 5) إعْمال مَقاصد النّصّ. 6) انسجام النّصّ وتكامله. 7) عربيَّة النّصّ. 8) حمل النّصّ على ظاهِره إلا لدليل. 9) إعْمال الحال في مقال النّصّ. 10) الاحتِجاج بالنّصّ الثّابت الدّالّ الْمُحكم الرّاجح. 11) احترام تفسيرات المجتهدين للنّصّ. 12) اشتِراط أهليَّة المجتهد في النّصّ. This study aimed at deducting and briefly demonstrating the general principles that dominated and still dominating the science of Islamic Jurisprudence (Usul al Fiqh), the branch of Islamic science, which dictates the methodology of dealing with the holy Islamic text to other branches of Islamic sciences and consequently to the Islamic thought in general. The researcher managed to conclude twelve general principles, which are agreed upon by all the scholars of Islamic Jurisprudence (Usul al Fiqh) or the vast majority of them. These principles are: 1) the command of Text. 2) The Truthfulness and reasonability of the Text. 3) The comprehension of the Text to the events. 4) The comprehension of the text to the people until the judgment day. 5) The empowerment of the text aims. 6) The harmony and integration of the Text. 7) The arabisizm of the text. 8) Interpreting the text depending on the common meanings unless proven false. 9) Empowering the context of situation. 10) Using the proven true, to the point, unabrogated and superior Text in arguments. 11) Respecting the different scholars' interpretations of the text. 12) The necessity of being illegible to interpret the Text.

Every single society has its dos and don’ts, and African is not an exception. What is more, Africans are strongly attached to their socio-cultural beliefs. However, as time is dynamic, there is need toreflect on the context of situation to evaluate our tradition.Thus, The Legendary Inikpi, the play under discussion, does not only serve as a central source to enable the readers find outhow African societies hold on to their religious beliefs and practices as part of their cultural identities, but also serves as a media tool that calls Africans for a change of attitude. The author considershuman sacrifice as a murder.To redirect the mentality towards certain religious practices such as human sacrifice, Emmy Unuja is able to create a female character named Daughter whose role is to convince people for a change of mentality. If we want African societies to move forwards, it is high time people change their mentality for the better.

The present paper goes along the lines of Semiotics, a branch of linguistics. It studies the system of signs which takes the form of words, images, sounds, gestures and objects. Through the usage of signs we represent the linguocultural aspect of our knowledge, ethnic traditions and folklore. The interest we take in the paper is the study of signs and symbols in Armenian culture. Culture, including miniature paining, singing, dancing, architecture and cuisine, may involve any sphere of Armenian identity. Signs and symbols that constitute language and culture are constructed through verbal and non-verbal interactions and are arbitrary. The purpose of our analysis is to specify what why, whom questions in a specific context of situation, as well as in a large context of culture, such as social community, media and communication.

Abstract ‘Role’ is typically defined according to the part and/or function that something or someone contributes to a situation. This two-fold perspective is also inherent in discussions of the role of language: the ‘amount’ of language that is involved in a situation and the ‘function’ of language in a situation, with both perspectives relating to the non-linguistic systems that may be involved in the conduct of the situation relative to language. It is the latter of these perspectives, however, that has typically received most attention in discourse analysis, with the former (the ‘amount’) being left implicit and unproblematised. This paper considers the role of language from various discourse analytical perspectives before critically examining the concept within Systemic Functional Linguistics. Using system networks as the representational and analytical platform, the paper redefines ‘role of language’ in contextual Mode as comprised of two sub-systems: degree of involvement and type of involvement. degree of involvement accounts for the compositional contribution that language makes in a situation; type of involvement accounts for the way in which language may function in a situation. Using an illustrative dataset, the paper also demonstrates the effectiveness of the systemic approach in accounting for overlapping and differing contextual configurations by showing how features within the role of language configure and how these in turn configure with options in the Field system-network of action. These configurations are essentially hypotheses that can be more comprehensively tested through empirical research.

The study entitled “Direct and Indirect Directive Illocutionary Acts in the Movie Penguin of Madagascar” is aimed at identifying the direct and indirect directive types of illocutionary acts and explaining and analyzing the meaning of the utterances interpreted by the listeners. The data of this study were taken from the movie entitled Penguins of Madagascar, and it was chosen because of many utterances identified as directive of illocutionary acts. The observation and documentation methods were used in collecting the data since the data were obtained from the spoken source in the movie. The data were analyzed using the descriptive qualitative method since the purpose of this study is to analyze the social phenomena like speech acts. The first theory proposef by Bach and Harnish (1979: 47) is used to analyze the type of directive of illocutionary acts. The second theory, the context of situation proposed by Dell Hymes (1972, is used to analyze the meaning of directive of illocutionary acts that can be interpreted by the listeners. There are six types of directive of illocutionary act proposed by Bach and Harnish (1979). They are requestives, questions, requirements, permissives, prohibitives and advisories. In this study, several types of directive illocutionary were found in the movie, except the indirect question, and direct prohibitive. The way the listeners interpret the meaning depends on the context of situation.

This article offers a close reading of two texts produced at a time of crisis on a South African campus. The framework used is that of Halliday's systemic-functional grammar, which enables us to analyse how the modes of discourse create their own reading contexts, while influencing, and being influenced by, the context of situation. In addition, Halliday's concept of 'antilanguage' is used to show how the second text creates, through language, a new context for interaction and constructs an opposing world-view to that of the first text.

This study reconsiders the place and nature of the logical metafunction in systemic theory. Halliday considers logical and experiential as subparts of the ideational metafunction, which he differentiates from the interpersonal and the textual, and he relates specific parts of the lexicogrammar to each metafunction, and each metafunction to a parameter of the context of situation. Here the proposal is to consider the logical component as an added function available for combination with each of the other three, and related equally to each of these, as well as to the field, tenor and mode of the context of situation. Logical meaning is considered independently from the strict structural constraints of recursion, parataxis and hypotaxis. Both projection and expansion are seen as multifunctional and as occurring at all grammatical ranks and at text level. Logical meaning is also seen in relational and existential processes, and as an extra unifying element in systems perceived as overlapping (modality and modulation, comparison and intensification).
