4. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 METAFUNCTION  Language perform three functions:  Experiential function Experiential function  Interpersonal function  Textual function  So language has three meanings:  Experiential meaning  Interpersonal meaning  Textual meaning ObjectiveObjective, Metafunction, Process, Circumstance, Modification, Field of the Discourse, AssignmentMetafunctionProcessCircumstanceModificationField of the DiscourseAssignment

5. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 Experiential function  to encode our experience of the world; that is we use it to convey a picture of reality  Human experience refers to:  Thing or participant, realized by nominal groups or prepositional phrases and can interact with process through a variety of participant roles  Event or process, realized by a verbal group (1, 2, 3)123  Circumstance, realized by adverbial groups, and prepositional phrases  The outer edge is CONJUNCTION GROUPS which indicates the logical relationship in the system Figure ObjectiveObjective, Metafunction, Process, Circumstance, Modification, Field of the Discourse, AssignmentMetafunctionProcessCircumstanceModificationField of the DiscourseAssignment

14. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 ProcessesProcesses (1)  Doing words:  MATERIAL PROCESSES as in arrived and worked that encode experiences (actions and happenings) in the external material world, MATERIAL PROCESSES  BEHAVIORAL PROCESSES as in sneezed and sang that encode physiological and psychological behavior and lie somewhere between material, mental or verbal processes BEHAVIORAL PROCESSES Figure Experiential function ObjectiveObjective, Metafunction, Process, Circumstance, Modification, Field of the Discourse, AssignmentMetafunctionProcessCircumstanceModificationField of the DiscourseAssignment

15. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 ProcessesProcesses (2)  Thinking, feeling or saying words describe the inner world of cognition, perception, emotion, and desire and has the potential for projecting our inner world as thought or speech so that it can be apprehended by others.  MENTAL PROCESSES as in remembered and overheard that encode experiences in the inner world of consciousness MENTAL PROCESSES  VERBAL PROCESSES as in told and said that encode the experiences of bringing the inner world outside by speaking.

17. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 Mat P and participant roles  Material processes construe doing. Material processes  They answer the question What did X do? or What happened?  The potential participant roles are:  ACTOR (the Doer of the process),  GOAL (the Thing affected by the process),  RANGE (the Thing unaffected by the process), and  BENEFICIARY (the Recipient, the one who receives the outcome of the process or Client the one for whom the process is done).

Mental Processes  The potential participant roles are:  SENSER (the Doer of the process) and  PHENOMENON, realized by a nominal group or embedded clause which sums up what is thought, wanted, perceived, or liked/disliked.

27. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 Rel P and participant roles  Relational processes construe the relationships of being and having. Relational processes  RELATIONAL ATTRIBUTIVE PROCESSES whose function is to ascribe an attribute the participant carrying the attribute or characteristics is known as CARRIER and the characteristic is known as ATTRIBUTE  RELATIONAL IDENTIFYING PROCESSES whose function is to identify. IDENTIFIED (the participant providing identity) and IDENTIFIER (the participant that identifies), TOKEN (the form) and VALUE (the function). Figure Experiential function Example 1, 212

35. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 Field of the discourse  In order to understand and represent the eventful world you need some metalanguages on clause as representation. They are as follows:  Experiential domain: what the text is all about  processes  Participants  circumstances  Short term goal: the immediate purpose of the text’s production  Long term goal: the text’s place in the larger scheme of things Step 1, 2, 3123ClueClue, F of DF of D ObjectiveObjective, Metafunction, Process, Circumstance, Modification, Field of the Discourse, AssignmentMetafunctionProcessCircumstanceModificationField of the DiscourseAssignment

36. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 Clue  The field of the discourse can be described by answering the question: What activity is taking place?  Experiential meanings of Processes, Participants and Circumstances provide the answer. Step 1, 2, 3123ClueClue, F of DF of D

37. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 Segmenting text (step 1) O.K, I want you to go over And get the ball…. Now sit down there…. Sit down over there…. Now roll it Roll it over to Tiffany And she’ll push it back to you There you go (LAUGHTER) And back again (LAUGHTER) Oh not too hard (WARNING) You’ll hurt her There you go (LAUGHTER) Oh! O.K, pick it up And throw it … like that Oh (DISMAY) Go And get it Step 1, 2, 3123ClueClue, F of DF of D

38. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 Diagram: analysis (step2) Experiential meaningsFIELD OF DISCOURSECommentary Process types: mainly material – go, get, roll, pick up, throw, push, sit Participants: Actor: the addressee, Tiffany Goal: the ball Circumstances place: over there manner: like that As a result of our analysis and knowledge of context of culture we can write up our description Experiential domain: Two children learning to roll a ball back and forth Short-term goal: teaching how to play the game gently Long-term goal: Teaching reciprocity (mutual behavior) of interaction Maintenance of family roles Step 1, 2, 3123ClueClue, F of DF of D

39. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 Describing context: (step 3)  Experiential domain (what the text is all about)  Material Processes (mostly)  Participants: you or addressee, ball  Circumstances: where and manner (how)  Short term goal (the immediate purpose of text’s production)  Two children learning to roll a ball back and forth  Teaching how to play the game gently  Long term goal (the text’s larger scheme)  Teaching reciprocity of interaction  Maintenance of family roles Step 1, 2, 3123ClueClue, F of DF of D

40. LS Liliek Soepriatmadji©2008 Assignment  What is ‘experiential meaning’?  Explain each type of processes and elaborate each of them with examples.  Find a text, break it down into its clauses and put the clauses into the transitivity system (pattern) ObjectiveObjective, Metafunction, Process, Circumstance, Modification, Field of the Discourse, AssignmentMetafunctionProcessCircumstanceModificationField of the DiscourseAssignment
