2. Types of Theme
Type of Theme is divided into textual, interpersonal and topical Theme. There must be one topical Theme in a clause, except in minor and ellipsis which have no
thematic structure. However, in any combination of textual, interpersonal and topical Theme, the appearances of textual andor interpersonal Theme can be more than once
in a clause. Therefore, utilizing of textual andor interpersonal Theme is optional in a clause. In contrast, it is different with topical Theme which operates as an obligatory
constituent in a clause. Meanwhile, the findings of type of Theme occurrences in the data are presented in Table 38 as follows.
