The themes found in the writings by authors during the Gilded Age are still prevalent in writings of the twenty-first century. The Gilded Age, a term used to describe a period of economic boom after the American Civil War at the turn of the century, have influenced communication to readers by using the ethos unearthed by writers who were opposed to a particular politician and their policies. Newspaper writing played a crucial role in exposing scandals, the pathos of the American Dream, and the logos or persuasion by using the trials of society. Writing was a powerful tool of communication during the Gilded Age that allowed writers to target events during this era. Newspaper writing was important to communicate prominent issues to the public, as writing upheld ideals to question government and to keep it accountable. However, the Gilded Age writings helped to permanently etch in the minds of readers the importance of themes that were prevalent post-Civil War that impacted the writing and writers of American Literature.

‘Silence’ refers to the forbearance from ambient audible sounds and writings. In a rhetorical context, silence can be seen as a gesture of the ‘pregnant pause’, where the moment of silence denotes the omission of noise and signifies a space left for ponderous thoughts. Silence itself is an expression well described by authors like Thomas Hardy, Maya Angelou, J.M. Coetzee, Stephen King, and Jay Asher. Since, the concept of silence is intertwined with violating women’s honour, it finds its expression in the form of psychological trauma and incomprehensible emotions. In Disgrace, J.M Coetzee shatters the premonitions expected of women in a situation of brutal rape by depicting the power of silence to venture out for new options through Lucy's portrayal. Unlike Coetzee, Stephen King, in his novel Gerald’s Game, portrays its offset by critiquing Jessie’s silence, which thrust her into hard times. This paper aims to explore the nuances of silence in the selected novels of Coetzee and King and also tries to highlight the relation of silence with resilience as well as power acquisition associated with a promise of comfort.

This study analyzed realization of verbs in Ambon Malay by using the theory of morphological typology. This research was conducted using the descriptive qualitative approach. The data were collected through questionnaire and elicitation techniques. Questionnaire was shared to 30 respondents, while interview was done with 6 informants. The two techniques were done by using three main instruments; interview guidelines, recording equipment, and writing equipment. An interactive model of data analysis was used to analyze the data. The data found in this study were 200 verbs in Ambon Malay. Only a small number of these verbs are inflected by four verb-formation affixes which are {meN-}, {baR-}, {taR-}, and {baku-}. These affixes are only attached to the current verbs. Whilst, most verbs are realized without affixes. This typical structure reflects that there must be morpheme deletion of prefix {di-}, suffixes {-i}, and circumfixes {di-kan}, {di-i}, {meN-kan}, {meN-i}, {memper-kan}, {memper-i} in Ambon Malay. Thus Ambon Malay is categorized as a semi-isolating language.

Communication is an activity that is always carried out by humans. In communicating, many people use ellipsis, where they omit part of the sentences they use. This research aims (1) to reveal the types of ellipsis found in Gary Dauberman's Annabelle Comes Home and (2) to reveal the classifications of sentences containing ellipsis in Gary Dauberman's Annabelle Comes Home. The research method used by researchers in this study was a qualitative method. The data source of this research is the Annabelle Comes Home movie. The research was conducted using the ellipsis theory proposed by Halliday and Hasan (1976) and the sentence classification theory by Frank (1972). The results showed that there were 81 uses of ellipsis, which included 7 nominal ellipsis, 12 verbal ellipsis and 62 clause ellipsis. The ellipsis were found in four sentence classifications. 56 uses of ellipsis were found in declarative sentences. In addition, in the interrogative sentence, 19 uses of ellipsis were found. Not only that, 5 uses of ellipsis were found in imperative sentences. Finally, in the exclamative sentence, only 1 use of ellipsis was found.

This study aims to analyze words in Dari that have the same semantic prime: See using Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM). This research was conducted using a descriptive qualitative approach.This reaserch used a theory by Goddard and Wierzbicka about NSM. The data found in this study are connected words that are associated with the prima semantic See/Didan in Dari language. The sources of this data are 5 informants who are original prosecutors from Kabul which is the capital of Afghanistan. Data was collected using interview guidelines, recording equipment, and writing instruments. The interactive data analysis model was used to analyze the data. From the data collected and analyzed, there are a total of 11 words related to the semantic prime of Seeing: Negah, Naqel, Tamasha, Barasi, Mulaqat, Tashkhis, Arzyabi, Dark, Tasawer, Shunakhtan, Mu'ayena. These words are similar but not exactly the same so it will create misunderstanding in the diction.

Inability to reach the effectiveness in using maxim makes it turns into misunderstanding of communication. It is called violation of maxim. This study is aimed to seek quantity maxim violation performed by characters in Richard Kletter and Michele Samit’s movie Stolen by My Mother: Kamiyah Mobley (2020) This research was descriptive qualitative analysis. The data were collected from utterances of the characters and then were analyzed by using Grice’s theory (1975). The result of this study shows that all characters violated the quantity maxim in 18 times, with different categories of violation. The most dominant category of quantity maxim violation is when the speakers talk too much and give too short contribution in conversation (55%). The other categories quantity maxim violation in the movie are Uninformative (27%) and Circumlocution (16%). Meanwhile, another category is Repeat Certain Word, it does not exist in the movie.
