    Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) stands out for its approach that views language as a set of interconnected systems, in which grammatical structures are analyzed in relation to the meanings they convey and the functions they perform in texts. Based on this perspective, this study investigates how femicide is discursively constructed in news reports published on online news portals, adopting a functionalist approach centered on SFL. The analysis is grounded in the theoretical foundations of Linguistic Functionalism (Givón, 1984, 1990, 1995, 2001) and SFL, as proposed by Halliday (1994), Halliday and Matthiessen (2004, 2014), Thompson (2014), Martin and White (2005), Martin and Rose (2008), and Hasan (1985), in addition to the descriptive proposal of Material Processes developed by Damasceno (2016). The general objective is to examine how the components of the textual, interpersonal, and ideational metafunctions are encoded in news reports on femicide, as well as to understand the meanings that emerge from these codifications. Specifically, the research proposes four lines of analysis: (i) identifying Theme, Rheme, and their meaning effects (textual metafunction); (ii) observing interpersonal relations between clausal subjects (interpersonal metafunction); (iii) analyzing the Processes, Participants, and Circumstances involved in the actions (ideational metafunction); and (iv) mapping and comparing discursive patterns through the use of Self-Organizing Maps (SOM), a statistical technique based on unsupervised neural networks. The methodological approach employs thirteen analytical parameters that encompass pragmatic and discursive properties related to the three metafunctions. Among these parameters, the following stand out: Semantic Representation of the Theme (RSE), related to the textual metafunction; Informational Status of the process responsible (EIS), linked to the interpersonal metafunction; and Position of Circumstances (PCI), associated with the ideational metafunction. The study also incorporates extralinguistic aspects by comparing the patterns identified across the five Brazilian regions (Central-West, North, Northeast, South, and Southeast), with particular emphasis on the contrastive analysis between the state with the highest femicide rate (Mato Grosso do Sul) and the one with the lowest (Ceará). The corpus comprises 33 news articles reporting on 11 distinct cases of femicide, totaling 634 clauses with Material Processes—375 of which are active and 259 passive. The application of the SOM network, combined with Pearson’s correlation, enabled the identification of twelve recurring linguistic patterns (six in active clauses and six in passive ones) and nine statistically significant correlations. Among these, the most prominent are: (i) the correlation between RSE and EIS in passive clauses, revealing a tendency toward explicit subjects when the process occupies the thematic position; (ii) the association between the number and position of Circumstances in active clauses, with a preference for initial and final placement; and (iii) the relationship between the Thematic Role of the Subject and the Type of Material Doing, emphasizing the responsibility attributed to the agent. The results indicate that the distribution of linguistic patterns in femicide news reports reflects intentional discursive choices that shape how these cases are represented and socially interpreted. Such grammatical choices—as in the inclusion of the circumstance “in front of several company employees,” an example from the research corpus—not only locate the action but also add interpretative value, intensifying the perception of the crime’s brutality and public exposure. Thus, linguistic organization contributes to the construction of meaning and social valuation of femicide.
