Deixis Used in Seminar Nasional MENCARI PEMIMPIN INDONESIA SEKARANG DAN MASA DEPAN (Diskursi Nasionalis dan Agamis)


1.    We find that the speaker more frequently use person deixis because the topic in this seminar is about the leader. It might influence the speaker speak a lot about the figure or characteristic of the leader to be.

2.    Yes, the speaker used deixis with specific or general reference.
¨    Specific reference: "Negara ini harus berjalan apapun yang terjadi."

In the word " Negara ini", the listeners can interpret it easily by the context that the speaker's mean by "Negara ini" is our country, Indonesia, even though the speaker doesn't explain more in a long sentence.

¨    General reference: "Beberapa hari yang lalu baca kompas betapa banyak Caleg-caleg yang memaksakan diri kemudian menjadi miskin."

In the word "Caleg-caleg", we are as a listener can a little bit to interpret which "Caleg" that the speaker means. Because there are so many "caleg" in every parties. It might from PKB, Demokrat, PKS, etc. it is not specific or the speaker did not use deictically.

3.    Yea… Alhamdulillah, we noticed the way of the speaker using deixis for some specific facial expression and body language.

When the speaker said:
“Wah, belum jadi aja udah pelit, apalagi kalo udah jadi? Inget, nggak pakek kriminal. No money, nodong!”
The speaker tries to give more stress in his speech (especially in the sentence) by using face expression like “meaningful smile”. His smile actually has implicit meaning that this politic situation is really happen as current issues.
 
¨    In other case, when he said “no money, nodong!” he used his body language by moving his hand like someone who really bring the gun and shoot the victim.

4.    Yes, we can learn about some point from this seminar,
 
¨    If we wanna change other/lead other, we must start from our selves. If we are a good example for people around us, without direction they will do like we do.

¨    Never blame other, just look at ourselves whether use have been a good man or not. So we can respect others.

¨    Don’t judge people from the worst example.
¨    Choose the leader based on his/her capability not from how much money he/she has given to us.
