Abstract

This study focuses on public signs in Sidoarjo Regency from the information structure and Ecolinguistics theory. The analysis of information structure aims to explain the form variation and the analysis of Ecolinguistics theory aims to describe three-dimensional background based on the particular lexicon in the public sign. The theory in this study are of information structure proposed by Lambrecth (1994) and the theory of ecolinguistics as proposed by Steffensen (2007). This study is a type of descriptive qualitative study. There are 100 data which are collected through observation supported by taking notes technique. In the analysis, there are two findings. First, the analysis on the information structure of the public sign shows that the form variations of the public signs are divided into two main points. Those are the variation of TOP and the variation of FOC. The TOP variations in the public signs are continued topic, contrastive topic, and restrictive topic. The FOC structure variations of the public signs are argument focus structure, predicate focus structure, and sentence focus structure. Second, the analysis of the ecolinguistics theory shows that the lexicons on the public signs in Sidoarjo Regency contained biological, sociological, and ideological background. Penelitian ini mengkaji tanda publik di Kabupaten Sidoarjo dari aspek struktur informasi dan Ekolinguistik. Analisis pada struktur informasi bertujuan untuk menunjukkan variasi bentuk dan analisis pada ekolinguistik bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan tiga latar belakang berdasarkan leksikon di tanda publik. Teori yang diaplikasikan dalam penelitian ini adalah teori struktur informasi oleh Lambrecht (1994) dan teori ekolinguistik oleh Steffensen (2007). Penelitian ini adalah penelitian deskriptif quaitatif. Terdapat 100 data yang ditemukan melalui observasi dan dilanjutkan dengan teknik catat. Di dalam analisis, terdapat dua temuan utama.
