ABSTRACT

The issue of context in language studies has long been the subject of debates by scientists. Internet technology that is developing very rapidly around linguistics has proven to have major impacts on changing the identity of contexts with unimodal dimensions to cybertext contexts. This study aims to describe the determining roles of cybertext contexts in socio-semiotic multimodal perspective. The research data were utterances containing identities of cybertext contexts. The sources of data were divided into two, namely the substantive and the locational ones. The data collection method applied was an in-depth reading method with note-taking technique. This data collection stage was followed by the data classification stage. This means that research data were ready to be analyzed after being carefully classified and typified. Furthermore, these research data were triangulated. The data analysis applied was the extra-lingual equivalent method. The data analysis and interpretation of the results of data analysis was done by matching the extra-lingual aspects. This study resulted in the findings of five determining roles of cybertext contexts in the delivery of intents, namely (1) the role of the cybertext context as the background of the speech intent; (2) the role of the cybertext context as confirming the essence of the speech intent; (3) the role of the cybertext context as an illustration of speech intent; (4) the role of the cybertext context as a provider of inspiration for delivering speech intent; and (5) the role of the cybertext context as complementary information on the meaning of the speech intent.
