Abstract
The French incumbent president Emmanuel Macron has won the election in 2017 and became the youngest one in French history. His inaugural address could be considered as a good text to do some researches. Critical discourse analysis is an objective method to analyze some texts, but it usually cannot be used alone. With the help of Halliday’s systemic functional grammar, this paper aims to analyze French president Emmanuel Macron’s inaugural address in 2017, mainly from three functions of discourse, in order to conclude language features of Macron’s address and to better understand this kind of political passages.
