INTRODUCTION
A. Background
The combination of meaning and neatness is an important factor to
determine the level of readability and understanding of discourse.
Cohesion and neatness (coherence) become no essence of discourse, no
one is involved in regulating the integrity of discourse. In the word
cohesion, there is an implicit understanding of cohesion and wholeness,
and in the word coherence there is an understanding of relations and
relationships.
If used with aspects of meaning and meaning, cohesion becomes
an aspect of form, and coherence for aspects of the meaning of discourse.
Furthermore, it can also be said that these aspects use formal aspects,
while coherence on speech aspects.

CONTENT
c. Superordinate
Superordinate is term for words that refer to the upper class itself. In
contrary, term for words that refer to the lower class itself is hyponym.
Example:
a) Henry’s bought himself a new Jaguar. He practically lives in the
car.
b) There's a boy climbing the old elm. That tree isn’t very safe.
d. General Word
The general words, which correspond to major classes of lexical items,
are very commonly used with cohesive force. They are on the
borderline between lexical items and substitutes. Not all general words
are used cohesively; in fact, only the nouns are when it has the same
referent as whatever it is presupposing, and when it is accompanied by
a reference item.
Example:
a) There's a boy climbing that tree. The idiot's going to fall if he
doesn't take care.
b) There's a boy climbing the old elm. That old thing isn't very safe.

A. Conclusion
Based on the data above, it can be concluded that cohesion and
coherence are not clearly visible, because both terms are often equated,
even exchanged. Cohesion implies a sense of cohesion, wholeness. While
coherence contains the notion of linkage, relationships.
Cohesive means and coherent means of discourse appear to
overlap. The cohesive means consists of grammatical and lexical strata.
Discourse demands wholeness, both wholeness of form and meaning.
Various coherent facilities can also be viewed from the integrity of the
form (paragraph), and also in terms of the integrity of the discourse.
