Abstract

The theoretical formulation on grammar as interlinked with cognitive mechanism has been accounted for by Talmy in the last two decades. This paper takes such theorization as its premise for twofold purposes, they are (1) to integrate as well as implement the Conceptual Structuring System to formulate the nature in the Indonesian context, thereby (2) illustrating the inherent semantic meaning in Indonesian grammar. A linguistic corpus was assembled by collecting 17 articles from antaranews.co.id. Every article was placed as the headlines on 01 April 2020. As to integrating Talmy’s Conceptual Structuring System, it is proposed that grammar consists of linguistic forms that systematically operates to conceptualize event or state of affairs. Furthermore, underpinning restrictions on conceptual meanings is one of the properties of grammar. The propositions made by this paper has the potential in generating testable hypothesis, as well as a characterizing baseline for linguistic typology.
