This study examines the lexical and grammatical meanings of news headlines from the November 2025 edition of detik.com, posted on Instagram. The shift from a news site to a social media platform often necessitates adjustments to headlines, which can lead to shifts in meaning. To collect relevant headlines, this study employed a qualitative descriptive method with a listening and note-taking technique. The analysis shows that lexical meaning in headlines is evident through the use of words with basic dictionary meanings, such as names of people, places, objects, and actions. Grammatical meaning is discovered through affixation and reduplication, which can change or add to the meaning of basic words according to the context. These two types of meaning play a crucial role in creating concise, clear headlines that are appropriate for the way news is presented on Instagram. This study concludes that the formation of meaning in headlines on detik.com is influenced by a combination of lexical and grammatical meanings tailored to the communication needs of social media platforms.

This study analyzes the news text on the online mass media detik.com titled "Jule's Infidelity Issue, Na Daehoon: I am strong for the sake of the children" using Sara Mills' Critical Discourse Analysis model. This research aims to reveal how the discourse of infidelity is constructed in media texts thru subject and object positioning, how character representation is displayed, how the reader's position is directed, the use of narrative structure, and the social context and gender ideology underlying the construction of this discourse. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive method with the data source being a news text published on detik.com. Data collection techniques were carried out thru document study by carefully reading and recording linguistic units relevant to the research focus, while data analysis techniques used Sara Mills' Critical Discourse Analysis model. The research findings indicate that Na Daehoon is positioned as the dominant subject, possesses voice legitimacy, and is positively represented as a strong and responsible male figure. Conversely, Jule is positioned as the object of news coverage, receiving no opportunity for clarification and being implicitly represented as the problematic party. Additionally, the narrative structure and language choices used in the news text also guide readers to build sympathy toward the male subject. The findings indicate that the analyzed news coverage is not neutral, but rather tends to reproduce patriarchal gender ideologies that could potentially influence society's perception of women in cases of infidelity.

News texts are a systematic way of conveying information that contains declarative and imperative sentences used to convey meaning directly and demonstrate the persuasive value of the news. The research goals are to analyze imperative sentences to understand how commands, requests, prohibitions, or invitations are conveyed so that they can influence the actions or responses of readers, as well as to analyze declarative sentences, which play an important role in constructing discourse structure and indicating the writer's position on the topic being discussed. This study was conducted using a qualitative descriptive method. This method was chosen because it can describe what is seen, heard, felt, and asked. The researcher considers qualitative descriptive research to accurately describe a situation without manipulating variables.  This research concludes that imperative sentences elicit responses in the form of agreement and action, or rejection, either directly or indirectly. Meanwhile, declarative sentences serve as a guide or basis for understanding the context the speaker wishes to convey and can also be used to reinforce previously conveyed information to avoid ambiguity and misunderstanding when examining the meaning. This research is expected to be useful in linguistic studies, more specifically in syntactic material that discusses declarative and imperative sentences in news texts and political discourses.

The purpose of this study is to describe the forms and types of clauses used in news texts and to explain their functions in maintaining the accuracy and credibility of information delivery. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method with a focus on syntactic studies. The data consist of clauses found in Detik.com news articles published in September 2025, analyzed based on their syntactic components: subject, predicate, object, complement, and adverbial. The findings show that the clause patterns of Subject–Predicate (S–P) and Subject–Predicate–Object (S–P–O) are the most dominant, with verbal predicates appearing most frequently. These patterns reflect the efficient, factual, and easily understood style of online journalistic language. This study contributes to the development of syntactic research and serves as a practical reference for journalists and readers in understanding effective language use in digital media.

This study examines Ad-Dakhil in Tafsir Al-Azhar by Buya Hamka, focusing on Israiliyyat narrations found in the interpretation of Qur’anic narrative verses in Juz 1–10. The research is motivated by the position of Israiliyyat as a form of infiltration (ad-dakhil) in Qur’anic exegesis that may affect the objectivity of interpretation, particularly in contemporary tafsir works. This study aims to identify the distribution of Israiliyyat narrations, classify their thematic patterns, and determine the status of each narration based on the critical framework of ad-dakhil fi at-tafsir. This research employs a qualitative library-based approach. The primary source is Tafsir Al-Azhar by Buya Hamka (Gema Insani, 2017), supported by classical and contemporary tafsir literature as well as scholarly works on Israiliyyat. Data were analyzed using the theory of ad-dakhil fi at-tafsir, classifying narrations into three categories: accepted (maqbul), rejected (mardud), and suspended (tawaqquf). The findings reveal seventeen Israiliyyat narrations scattered throughout Juz 1–10, originating from the Old Testament, the New Testament, Wahb bin Munabbih, ‘Abdullah ibn Mas‘ud, and Tafsir Ibn Kathir. These narrations fall into nine major themes, including the creation and origin of humanity, the story of Prophet Adam and his descendants, Prophet Ibrahim, Prophet Ya‘qub, Prophet Musa and Bani Israil, Prophet Sulaiman, Prophet Zakariya, Prophet ‘Isa and his people, as well as accounts of previous nations. Of these seventeen narrations, eleven are classified as rejected (mardud), five as tawaqquf, and one as accepted (maqbul). These results emphasize the necessity of critical engagement with Israiliyyat narrations in tafsir literature to preserve the integrity of Qur’anic interpretation.

Coordinating conjunctions are conjunctions that function to connect two language units that have the same or equal status, while subordinating conjunctions are conjunctions that connect two language units that do not have the same or equal status. News text is a text that contains information about factual and actual events that are still hotly discussed by the public. This study aims to analyze the use of coordinating and subordinating conjunctions in news articles published by Kompas in September 2025. The method used in this research is a descriptive qualitative method, with observation and note taking techniques applied to analyze conjunctions based on their types and functions. The results show that coordinating conjunctions such as (and, or, but, however) and subordinating conjunctions such as (because, so that, after, until, if) are used to construct coherent, logical, and easily understood sentences. The appropriate use of conjunctions supports the effective delivery of information and enhances the reader's comprehension of the news content. This research is expected to serve as a reference for readers or future researchers who wish to examine linguistic phenomena in online news texts using a similar approach.

This study aims to describe the structure, syntactic function, and semantic role of the nominal clause in JawaPos.com news texts published in August 2025.

This study is expected to serve as a valuable reference for linguistic research and language learning, as well as offering practical guidance for online media practitioners to continuously improve the clarity, effectiveness, and quality of news writing in the digital realm.

This study aims to describe the internal structure and syntactic functions of noun phrases in online news articles about demonstration actions published by Detik.com in August 2025. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach, with observation and note-taking. Data were obtained from five news articles discussing demonstrations, then analyzed to identify the core elements (head) and modifiers, and to determine the syntactic functions of the phrases within sentences. The analysis results show that the most frequently encountered noun phrase pattern is Noun + Noun (N + N), with modifiers on the right that provide explanations of identity, location, or ownership. The most common syntactic function found is as the subject, followed by the object and adverbial of place. These findings confirm that noun phrases play an important role in explaining information and sentence structure in online news texts. Additionally, the use of noun phrases also reflects the media's language strategy in constructing social and political realities through concise, efficient, and information rich language.

This research is driven by the urgency of maintaining the quality of the Indonesian language in the realm of online journalism, particularly on major media platforms such as CNN Indonesia. Online media plays a central role as the primary source of information, but the speed of publication often encounters linguistic errors that have the potential to damage credibility and lead to misinterpretation among readers. The focus of the study on syntactic errors is crucial because errors in sentence structure, diction, and conjunctions directly affect the meaning and effectiveness of communication. This study aims to analyze and describe the forms of syntactic errors (including sentence pattern errors, non-standard diction, and conjunction redundancy) and offer recommendations for improvement based on standard Indonesian language rules. The method used is a qualitative descriptive approach with a syntactic approach. Data in the form of linguistic units at the phrase, clause, and sentence levels from all CNN Indonesia news texts for the period of August 2025, collected using the Listen and Note Technique. The findings are anticipated to show a dominance of sentence ineffectiveness, incorrect use of conjunctions, and temporally illogical diction errors. This research is expected to contribute as a practical guide for editors and news writers to improve the quality of editing, while also supporting literacy efforts and the use of good and correct Indonesian in the digital public space.

This study aims to identify, analyze, and describe in depth the types of coordinating verbal phrases (FV) and subordinating verbal phrases (FV) contained in Detik.com news texts published in September 2025. Based on the fundamental role of language as a means of communication and social interaction (syntax), the object of research is focused on FV as a grammatical unit that has a verb core and functions as a predicate. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with a syntactic theoretical approach. Data collection was carried out through the technique of listening and taking notes on Detik.com news texts, while data analysis was applied using the distribution method, where the determining tool comes from the linguistic elements themselves. The results of the study showed the discovery of a total of 13 verbal phrases divided into 3 coordinating FVs and 10 subordinating FVs (including the patterns Adv + V, V + Adv, V + Adj, and V + N). In detail, 3 coordinating FVs, 3 FVSs with Adv + V pattern, 2 FVSs with V + Adv pattern, 2 FVSs with V + Adj pattern, and 3 FVSs with V + N pattern were found. This finding emphasizes the importance of understanding phrase structure in maintaining clarity of meaning. This research is expected to improve readers' literacy understanding and serve as a scientific reference for similar linguistic studies.

This research is motivated by the importance of phrase analysis in syntactic studies for understanding the structure and relationships among components within Indonesian sentences. As grammatical units, phrases play a strategic role in shaping meaning, so they should be examined in terms of their constituent elements and their functions in the text. This study aims to analyze the use of adjectival phrases and prepositional phrases found in news texts. The method used is a qualitative descriptive method with observing and note-taking techniques, supported by a syntactic theoretical approach. The findings show that there are twenty-five adjectival phrases and sixty-eight prepositional phrases identified in five news texts published on Tempo.com in August 2025. “lebih cepat” is one example of an adjectival phrase found in the texts, while “ke arah pendemo” is an example of a prepositional phrase. These findings indicate that Indonesian phrases have systematic formation patterns and complementary syntactic functions. This research serves as a useful reference for the development of syntactic studies, linguistic learning, and the analysis of phrase usage in various language contexts.

Language and news have a close relationship because language is a medium to convey news. In news, the use of noun phrases is important to pay attention to, so that there is no misunderstanding. Therefore, this study aims to analyse the use of object phrases in news texts, focusing on their elements, types, and functions. In this research, two approaches are used, namely qualitative descriptive and syntax. The results show that in the news text, there are various variations of noun phrases. This diversity is seen in the different patterns of phrase formation, which differ in structure and constituent elements. The type of noun phrase that is often found is the subordinate noun phrase. The results showed that noun phrases can occupy syntactic functions as long as their use does not exceed the limits of sentence structure. In Indonesian syntax, noun phrases can function as subjects, objects, or descriptions. Therefore, noun phrases play an important role in the formation of a sentence.

The language used in online news is not only a tool for conveying information but also shapes perspectives that influence readers. One key element in this aspect is phrases. Phrases always appear in various types of text. A phrase is a grammatical unit consisting of two or more words that does not exceed the functional limit and fulfills one of the syntactic functions. Phrases are often found in a text within a sentence, one of which is on the online news page cnnindonesia.com. The type of phrase found in the news page is a verb phrase that functions to form a predicate, link ideas, and better explain the author's intent. The cnnindonesia.com page about Affan Kurniawan published in August 2025 was chosen because it shows a variety of verb phrases that are interesting to study. This study aims to describe the form of verb phrases found in the cnnindonesia.com news about Affan Kurniawan published in August 2025. This research can provide a clearer picture of verb phrases in journalistic texts. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive method. The results of this study describe verb phrases and their syntactic functions in a cnnindonesia.com news story about Affan Kurniawan published in August 2025. This research is useful theoretically and practically. Theoretically, this study enriches the syntactic study of verb phrases and their application in media texts. Practically, the results can serve as a reference for students, researchers, and journalists in using Indonesian effectively and according to the rules.
