Abstract :

This study was conducted to analyze the situated meaning of Makdit’s speech in the TV series of Islam KTP. When we speak or write, we design our language to fit the situation in which we are communicating. But in the same time, the way we speak or write creates that very situation. The writer used qualitative approach as the main tool. Eight video recordings of Islam KTP were analyzed based on Gee’s theory which is called seven building tasks to explain the situated meaning of Makdit’s speech that the TV series tries to enact. Thence, the study also wants to see how Makdit’s speech fits that situated meaning. The result of the study revealed that the TV series tries to convey Islamic values to its viewers in the way of satirical actions. The three topics described on the speech of Makdit are wealth, morality, and cultural promotion. In addition, Makdit’s speech is designed to fit the comical sense throughout the use of vernacular dialect and swear words or rude words. Based on the findings, the writer concludes that any piece of language has its meaning with considerations of contexts and situations. The situated meaning of language could be interpreted, one of the way, by Gee’s seven building tasks in discourse analysis.
