Thị Kim Oanh ii TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com ABSTRACT This study applies systemic functional grammar in order to investigate the meaning and structure of the inaugural address by John F Kennedy in 1961 Based on the framework of systemic functional grammar developed by Halliday, the study focuses on analyzing the text in terms of language functions (three metafunctions) and cohesion (grammatical and lexical cohesion) The findings reveal that in terms of transitivity, material process is predominant; in terms of mood, declarative mood is in the largest use; and in terms of theme, topical theme which forms unmarked one is the most notable feature in the whole text Besides, grammatical cohesion presented by reference, conjunctive devices and structural parallelism and lexical cohesion illustrated through repetition, synonymy, and antonymy make a great contribution to the cohesion and coherence of the text Undeniably, the analysis proves that this text is really meaningful, concise, and highly cohesive with the diversified uses of lexis and structures and so systemic functional grammar is an effective tool for analyzing the structure and meaning of a particular text iii

PART A INTRODUCTION Rationale of the study The long history of linguistics has witnessed the development of various approaches to grammar study, among which systemic functional grammar (SFG) emerged as ―an effective tool of analysis, which solves the issues left out by traditional grammar‖ since it helps understand human language more deeply Of the linguists investigating this approach, Halliday is the eminent one to suggest the most practical approach to the grammatical construction be meaning–centered as he considers language a ―system of meanings‖ From this view, functional grammar emphasizes how linguistic structures express meaning and view language as a communicative resource, not just as isolated grammatical rules However, the process of teaching and learning the language sometimes, in fact, seems to make a clear distinction between grammar and other linguistic areas, so the communicative language acquisition is not really completed As a teacher of English for a number of grammar classes, I am deeply interested in improving the language proficiency along with the structure accuracy for my students That is the reason why I have developed a great attention to SFG and my absorption in it helps strengthen my notion of its applications in language teaching and learning In this study, the analysis of structure and meaning of the inaugural address by John F Kennedy in 1961 is conducted This political text is chosen to investigate due to the fact that it has been considered one of the best speeches of 20th century worldwide It may provide a rich context of language for applying SFG to analyze Aim of the study The main aim of the thesis is to analyse the inaugural address by John F Kennedy in 1961 in terms of transitivity, mood, theme, and cohesion using systemic functional grammar as the theoretical framework

To realize this aim, the research question is as follows:  How is the inaugural address by John F Kennedy in 1961 organized in terms of transitivity, mood, theme, and cohesion? Scope of the study Within the scope of a minor thesis, it is impossible to analyze the text in all aspects as developed by systemic functional grammar framework Therefore, the thesis will focus on re-examining the theoretical concepts relevant to the study and will use them to analyze the meaning and structure of the inaugural address by John F Kennedy Methodology of the study Description and analysis are two main methods to analyze the meaning and structure of the speech The former deals with the illustration of the crucial areas of functional grammar and the latter is concerned with the analysis of the text for discussion Data Collection The inaugural address by John F Kennedy in 1961 is retrieved from the official and popular website http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu Design of the study There are three main parts in this thesis as follows:  Part A: Introduction - gives an overview of the rationale, aims, scope, methodology and design of the study  Part B: Development - Chapter 1: Theoretical Background – provides an overview of systemic functional grammar in which crucial concepts relevant to the study are examined - Chapter 2: The analysis of the inaugural address by John F Kennedy in 1961 – focuses on analysing its meaning and structure, based on the framework provided in chapter
