Abstract

This study aims to investigate students’ perceptions and attitudes toward the use of Instagram in English language writing. The research employed a descriptive quantitative design using a survey method. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire distributed via Google Forms to 100 university students from different semesters. The instrument consisted of 10 statements measured using a five-point Likert scale to examine writing frequency, confidence, motivation, and vocabulary development. The findings indicate that most students have positive perceptions of Instagram as a learning tool, as it encourages more frequent writing, enhances confidence, and allows students to express ideas more freely. Instagram also contributes to vocabulary improvement and increases students’ motivation through its interactive features, such as captions, comments, and direct messages. However, some students showed neutral responses regarding its effectiveness as a focused writing medium due to potential distractions from entertainment content. These findings suggest that Instagram can be used as a supportive tool in English writing instruction when integrated with appropriate guidance.

Abstract

Using Grice’s theory of conversational implicature and Searle’s illocutionary taxonomy, this study examines speech acts and implicatures in Taylor Swift’s lyrics for “Love Story.” A qualitative descriptive method is applied to analyse 43 utterances, identifying the song’s implied meanings and communicative functions. The results show that assertive speech acts predominate at 58.1%, followed by directives (30.2%), expressive (25.6%), commissive (11.6%), and declaratives (2.3%); these percentages reflect frequency of occurrence and do not sum to 100% because a single utterance may realize more than one speech act simultaneously. For implicatures, classification follows criteria: Generalized Conversational Implicature (65.1%) conveys meaning understandable without specific background knowledge, whereas Particularized Conversational Implicature (34.9%) depends heavily on context and intertextual references—mainly to Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet and Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter. Combined, these pragmatic strategies construct a multi‑layered romantic narrative accessible at both universal and context‑specific levels. This study demonstrates that song lyrics constitute a rich form of pragmatic discourse, in which speech acts and implicatures interact to convey narrative meaning and emotional depth beyond literal expression.
