Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan tenor dari mitra bicara pada percakapan dalam buku teks Bahasa Inggris kelas X dan kesesuaian realisasinya dalam konteks. Penelitian ini juga menjelaskan persamaan dan perbedaan antara teks percakapan dari kedua buku teks Bahasa Inggris dalam merealisasikan tenor. Metode deskriptif komparatif digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Hasil analisis leksikogramatika menunjukkan bahwa teks percakapan dari kedua buku teks didominasi oleh klausa deklaratif. Hal ini berarti mood pada model teks percakapan cenderung memberikan informasi daripada meminta informasi atau meminta barang atau jasa. Hasil dari analisis modalitas menunjukkan bahwa teks percakapan didominasi oleh modulasi kapasitas. Hasil analisis tenor menunjukkan bahwa peran sosial dari teks percakapan meliputi peran antara guru dan siswa, siswa dan siswa, dan teman dan teman. Selanjutnya, status dalam teks percakapan adalah setara dan tidak setara. Antar mitra bicara terdapat terdapat kontak yang rendah dan keterlibatan afektif rendah dan kontak tinggi dan keterlibatan afektif tinggi.
