Abstract

In order that a reader can get across the message of a written text clearly, the
writer is responsible to maintain its coherence as it is one of the significant aspects
of the text. This article aims at identifying lexical cohesion and stylistic choice
found in an Indonesian agony letter and its responses published in the woman
magazine Femina in 1993.
A letter that deals with complaints of marriage problems, its inquiries of
suggestions in solving them and its answers is the written text that is analysed in
this article. The analysis is conducted to find out what elements are used in it.
Coherence applied in this article is lexical cohesion such as synonyms, hyponyms
and superordinates, and stylistic choice in the form of choice of words and
sentence structures.
Keywords: discourse/text, coherence, lexical cohesion, synonym, hyponym,
superordinate.
