English to Malay: Discourse Analysis General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Linguistics
Source text - English Discourse is defined generally by the Merriam Webster Online Dictionary as the use of words to exchange thoughts and ideas. According to Nicki Lisa Cole, a Sociology Expert, “discourse refers to the way we think and communicate on certain circumstances like people, things, the social organization of society, and the relationships among and between all three”. It thus shapes what we are able to think. While for a Grammar and Composition Expert, Richard Nordquist, he agrees with the definition of discourse that it deals with “the use of language in a running discourse, continued over a number of sentences, and involving the interaction of speaker (or writer) and auditor (or reader) in a specific situational context, and within a framework of social and cultural conventions" (Abrams and Harpham, A Glossary of Literary Terms, 2005). Hence, it means that discourse can be divided into several types which are spoken, written, sign language use or any significant semiotic events.
Translation - Malay Wacana ditakrifkan secara umumnya oleh Kamus Merriam Webster Online sebagai penggunaan kata-kata untuk bertukar pikiran dan idea. Menurut Nicki Lisa Cole, seorang pakar dalam bidang sosiologi, “wacana merujuk kepada cara kita berfikir dan berkomunikasi terhadap sesuatu keadaan contohnya manusia, benda, organisasi sosial sesebuah masyarakat, dan juga hubungan diantara ketiga-tiganya”. Justeru, ia membentuk apa yang kita mampu fikir. Sementara itu, bagi seorang pakar dalam bidang Tatabahasa dan Komposisi, Richard Nordquist, beliau bersetuju dengan definisi wacana yang berhubung kait dengan “penggunaan bahasa dalam sesebuah wacana yang sedang berlangsung, meneruskan beberapa ayat dan melibatkan interaksi pembicara (atau penulis) dan juruaudit (atau pembaca) dalam konteks situasi tertentu, dan dalam kerangka konvensi sosial dan budaya. (Abrams and Harpham, A Glossary of Literary Terms, 2005). Oleh itu, ini bermaksud wacana boleh dibahagikan kepada beberapa jenis iaitu lisan, bertulis, penggunaan bahasa isyarat atau sebarang peristiwa semiotik yang penting.
