Abstract
This research aims to examine the use of linking adverbials in research articles indexed by Scopus by Indonesian writers. Linking adverbials is a linking device that implicitly plays an important role in discourse cohesion and coherence. Linking adverbials is analyzed based on the classification of six semantic categories by Biber et. al. (1999). The researcher used the list of linking adverbials by Liu (2008). Through corpus analysis, this research identifies linking adverbials based on six semantic categories, frequency of use, and position in a sentence. The data for this research are 50 research articles from social science disciplines published in indexed Scopus journals published in 2020-2022. This research was analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively to analyze the use of linking adverbials. In addition, this research focuses on corpus analysis using concordance software, namely AntConc, to determine the number and frequency of linking adverbials in the data. The research results show that all semantic categories (enumeration and addition, result/inference, contrast/concession, apposition, transition, and summation) have been applied in research articles by Indonesian writers according to their functions. The enumeration and addition category have the highest frequency and the summation category has the lowest frequency. Meanwhile, Indonesian writers often use linking adverbials at the beginning and middle of a sentence rather than at the end of a sentence. This is because the placement of a linking adverbial at the initial of a sentence explicitly indicates that the function of linking adverbials is to connect discourse, apart from that, there is the influence of the first language of the writers of the research article which is Indonesian.
