4. Written discourse: Analysis
• From the screenshots above, there is different
perspective within the quote and the person. The
quote includes the Mathematics thing and the
person cannot understand even I have explained
what it is meant by the quote. It is because the
prior knowledge of the person is different with
Mathematic thing and also her interests. She is an
English teacher from Global Prestasi School and
she does not like Mathematics. Therefore,
although the quote is quite funny, she still cannot
understand what it intends to or refer to.

• The second one is the conversation on BBM. I
posted a private message which was “Bete
banget sama anak priuk”. I wish the respond was
like asking why or something related with the
private message. But then, I got the different
respond which was “Walahh.. Piye kbrmu mbar?”
It was really far from the respond that I wanted.
Maybe, it is because of the different culture. She
has not been to Jakarta and of course she does
not know Priuk. And the second possibility is she
does not know who the person that I mean is.
That is why those things happened.

18. Written discourse: Analysis
• People who give response on my status stated that
they agree with me. I think, maybe all of them have
the same feeling which is not stupid though they
are slow learner. Some of them even clearly stated
that they are not stupid. In my opinion, they have
confidence and aware of their own capability.
Some of them also put exclamation sign on their
respond, and I think it implies that they strongly
agree with my status even more than the other.
