Construction of Experiential in the News Text of the Inauguration of Members of the MPR/DPR/DPD RI 2024-2029
Abstract
This study examines the construction of experiential in the news text of the inauguration of members of the MPR/DPR/DPD RI for the period 2024-2029. The construction of experiential is a morphosyntactic construction where the subject experience something, feels a sensation, and experiences mental actions by the stimulus of the sentence object. The steps in this research method are carried out with the aim of finding structured, concrete answers through language phenomena that can be studied. Data collection was conducted using the observation method and note-taking technique. Data analysis was conducted using the distribution method and basic techniques for direct elements and advanced techniques of reading, marking, expanding, and changing forms. The results of this study show that the construction of experiential can be analyzed in the verbs of affection and verbs of cognition. The agent occupies the position of the subject mapped as the experiential or the object mapped as the stimulus or both can correspond in the sentence. The verbs of affection can involve or describe someone's feelings. In addition, the addition of two verb arguments can change the semantic role in the example of the verb "feel". The dative element found in the object of experiential in the verb to be and juxtaposed with adjectives describes quality. The purpose of the construction of experiential is to find a strong meaning in the relationship of subject - object or object - subject in the sentence and the semantic role bound in it. Therefore, it can be concluded that the semantic role and morphology is closely related to the syntactic structure in a sentence.
