Abstract

Gender based register is one of the special characteristics of Japanese language by which its use is regulated based on the social norms and rules of Japanese society. Compliance and violation of the use of gender language is an indicator of the assessment of the level and quality of the life of the speaker. Along with the development of civilization, violations occurred in the form of irregularities in the use of male gendered languages used by young female Japanese speakers, though these deviations do not occur in everyday speech events but take place in certain speech contexts. Discursive practice analysis of the text does not only include a precise explanation of the way participants interpret and produce the text in an interaction, but also happens in the relationship of discursive events to the level of discourse in which it is an inter-discursive matter. The present paper employs critical discourse analysis as its tool of analysis. The analysis shows interesting results. Firsly, the context that helped build the text of the speech from the internal point of view of the text, i.e. the dimension of representation, illustrates how deviations in the use of male gendered registers by speakers of young Japanese women are acceptable and they are not considered a form of violation. Secondly, the similarity of interests and goals in the text of speech between speakers and hearers who act as textual figures are said to be the identity dimension, hence this is a factor that causes the acceptance. However, from the perspective of the identity dimension which is namely the socio-cultural structure of the speakers who act as external elements of the text, the irregularities in the use of gendered registers are still regarded as a form of violation of language due to norms and ethics in the domain of Japanese language
