Abstract

Academic writing presents challenges as students struggle to create meaning through texts. Writing an academic final paper is a challenge for university students. This study aims to analyze and examine the students use of interpersonal grammatical metaphor in academic writing within the utilization of mood and modality. By applying the theoretical framework of systemic functional linguistics, the researcher chose a descriptive qualitative method and thematic analysis design based on her research aims. Six papers were selected since they met eight qualifications from the appraisal checklist. All the selected papers distributed 76 clauses of positive declarative mood, 6 clauses of negative declarative mood, and 24 clauses of imperative mood. The data collected presented a total of 106 clauses in the distribution of mood systems. Students applied a total of 47 clauses for high obligation, 10 clauses for medium obligation, and 33 clauses for low obligation. Moreover, students applied 8 clauses of high inclination and 8 clauses of modalization in usuality. The data collected presented a total of 106 clauses in the distribution of modality. The realization of the mood system was used to express meaning through their research background and reason for choosing the topic. While types of modalities are realized to strengthen their background of study and express possibilities that were likely to occur in their reason for choosing the topic, students realized modalization to express meaning and give evidence why their topic is reasonable. Keywords: Interpersonal Grammatical Metaphor, Mood and Modality, Academic Writing
