Abstract

The ways people communicate are delivering certain information. One of these ways is the use of sentence structure. Sentence structure is closely related to syntax, in which the elements of language are grammatically composed for certain intentions. This intention can be identified through a syntactic and pragmatic perspective. This article aims to describe the students’ syntactic-pragmatic intention when they are communicating with the lecturers via social media WhatsApp. The data are the utterances used by some students from Gadjah Mada and Andalas University when communicating with their lecturers via WhatsApp. Note-taking and interviewing are the techniques used to collect the data. The analysis is done by using the concept of syntax by Verhaar [1] and Revita [2]. The result of the analysis is descriptively and narratively presented. Having analyzed the data, it is found that the students use some syntactic structures to deliver the intention to their lecturers via WhatsApp. They are incomplete sentences, grammatically incorrect sentences, and very simple sentences to create intimacy, highlight the intention, and force the lecturers to fulfil what they want.
