Abstract

This study was concerned with the employment of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) theory in analyzing a speech text. The text used in this study was a speech entitled What it’s like to be a Muslim in America by Dalia Mogahed. The selected text was reconstructed into some clauses and was analyzed in terms of its field, tenor, and mode. In analyzing the data, the researcher used discourse analysis method because it focused on the role of language. The results of the analysis showed that the register category of the field of the text is about the matter of Islamophobia and how it affected Muslims community in America. The tenor as the realization of the interpersonal meaning in three metafunctions of the text explained the relationships among the speaker, the audience, and the theme by analyzing status, contact, and affect. Status among the speaker, the audience, and the theme being talked in the speech was equal status. Contact between the speaker and the audience tended to be uninvolved, whereas contact between the speaker and the theme was involved. The use of complex clauses, simplex nominal group, simplex verbal group, and simplex adjunct group also showed that language used by the speaker in delivering her speech was understandable. Furthermore, affect between the speaker and the audience showed positive judgement, while affect between the speaker and the theme was negative judgement. Ultimately, the mode of the text was categorized as spoken language style because the speaker used many complex clauses that were common in spoken language.
