This study is focused on analyzing the deixis on the headlines of Suara Merdeka using theory of Stephen c. Levinson. Deixis is a part of discourse analysis study and concerned with the meaning that is inferred from an utterance or sentence but that is not condition for the truth of the utterance or sentence. Deixis concerns the ways in which languages encode, features of the context of utterance and thus also concerns ways in which the interpretation of utterances depends on the analysis of that context of utterance. The headline is as the core of information in the newspaper written in the forms of sentence and messages are often conveyed implicitly. It is the information center, which should be written in short sentences, clearly and full of meaning, and also interesting. Based on that . background, the research on deixis used in the headline of Suara Merdeka is conducted with the proposed problem; ”how are the deixis expressed in the headlines of Suara Merdeka?”
