- Abstract
Language is used to express one’s feelings, thoughts, and opinions about something. Language is also a media for criticizing the social situation, such as in the “Nah Ini Dia” (NID) discourse rubric in the Poskota online newspaper. The reading of this rubric is a social satire for the community, including people’s households, neighbours, friendships, brotherhood, and even the current political situation. Even though the content is social criticism, the language that is packaged is very witty and the content is also humorous, even tends to be satire. The aspect of satire almost dominates all existing discourse (data). Therefore, this research aims to how satire as a social criticism is constructed from macro linguistic to micro linguistic. This study uses syntactic, semantic, and pragma linguistic theories to reveal the real meaning of the data discourses. For this reason, a qualitative descriptive method is used. The results of this study indicate that in macro linguistic, social criticism is built through discourse schemata that have been highlighted starting with the title and the composition of the discourse. In contrast, micro linguistically, social criticism is built through diction and nuances of meaning. In addition, criticism or social satire is dominated by framed language.
