Systemic Functional Linguistics is one of the considerable theories that are largely applied in language education, particularly in English language teaching. It was designed and developed by a British Linguist, M.A.K. Halliday, and his partisans, during the 1960s in the United Kingdom and also in Australia (Abdulrahman, 2016) . SFL is renowned for some notions of language that explain how language works and also how to learn it best (Mccabe et al., 2021). It has contributed not only to developing theories of language but also a methodology for language pattern analysis (Eggins, 2004). This approach is then widely used and adapted in Asian countries, including in Indonesia, due to its applicability value. This essay aims to offer two roles that SFL can take for English language teaching, especially in the Merdeka curriculum implementation.
