Ideology and Discourse:

Ideologies are basically some kind of ‘ideas’, ‘beliefs’ or ‘values’ which are called as the belief
system of the group These beliefs are socially shared among the members of the following
beliefs or the group in whole. Ideologies have been defined as the foundational beliefs that
inspire the social groups. The ideologies in turn need the support system of discourse whether it
be written or spoken discourse. The ideological representation is done by the basis of either
spoken or written discourse. For example, when group members have to explain, motivate and
put actions into words, they use the Ideological discourse For instance, the pronoun ‘we’ is one
of the structure used to refer all the members of the group of the current speaker.
