The Design of Discourse Production


There will be three process of producing utterances based on Carlk: propositional content, illocutionary content, thematic structure
a.    Propositional content
Propositional content determines what proposition the speaker should utter how the speaker establish and classify a word to another. If the speaker wants to describe a sequence of related events, then the sequening and relation between the events must be a part of plan or propositional representation.” A young girl is standing beside an old man”, so we classify what word should we use to depict what we imagine or see. It could be a girl, a girl who is young, a man, a man who is old.
b.    Illocutionary content
Illocutionary content is on how and what that meaning of utterance is uttered. It could be representative or directive sentence.
e.g :  a. Ada rokok, nggak?
          b. Beri aku rokok
it would be possible to ask anyone a cigarette by ordering first sentence than another while a sentence is in the form of question.
An utterance that will be produced also influences by any factors allied to social status, age, relationship/kinship, and familiarity between the speaker and interlocutors. The language uses will be different.
c.    Thematic structure. 
A thematic structure has close relation to the grammatical function and semantic in sentence usage. A speaker chosees and produces a subject and object that will be used.
