Abstract

In the era of Society 5.0, the phenomenon of automatic translation is getting more attention as communication technology advances, especially with the presence of translation engines such as Auto Translation and ChatGPT. Both are widely used in language transfer, including for official texts such as diplomatic speeches. This study aims to identify and compare the translation strategies used by Auto Translation and ChatGPT in translating the Arabic speech delivered by Indonesian Deputy Foreign Minister Anis Matta during the OIC Summit in Riyadh on November 11, 2024. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a comparative method. Primary data is obtained from Arabic speech transcripts and the results of the translation of the two machines, while secondary data comes from various relevant literatures. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation and note-taking, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The results show that the most dominant strategy used by both is Transcription (34% Auto Translation, 42% ChatGPT). The Harfiyyah strategy was found 18% in Auto Translation and 19% in ChatGPT. The Ziyadah strategy appeared 12% in Auto Translation and 8% in ChatGPT. The Transposition strategy was found 6% in Auto Translation and 11% in ChatGPT. The Description strategy was used more by ChatGPT at 12% than Auto Translation with 3%). Taqdim wa ta'khir strategy appears equally at 6%, while Tabdil (9%) and Hazf (12%) strategies are only found in Auto Translation. The results show a significant difference in that Auto Translation is more flexible in replacing or omitting text elements, while ChatGPT is more descriptive and contextual. This research contributes to the study of technology-based translation, especially Arabic-Indonesian diplomatic texts.

Abstract

The novel “قلب الليل” tells the dramatic story of a man named Ja'far. Ja'far was once at the peak of happiness before he fell into a valley of suffering. He became impoverished, his family life fell apart, and he became involved in a politically motivated murder case. The strong emotional pressures from his past led Ja'far to face difficult situations in his life. Ja'far displays a range of emotions when confronted with these challenging situations. Therefore, this study aims to uncover the basic emotions of the main character in the novel “قلب الليل”, Ja'far, from the perspective of David Krech. This research employs David Krech's literary psychology approach to explore characters' emotions in literary works. This is a qualitative-descriptive study. The primary data source is the novel “قلب الليل” by Naguib Mahfouz. Data collection techniques include reading and note-taking. Data analysis follows the Miles and Huberman model, involving data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The study finds that the basic emotions of the main character in the novel “قلب الليل” include: two types of anger, two types of sadness, one type of joy, and one type of fear.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the matrix and trace the hypogram of the poem Hal Hādhihi ‘Alāmah by Nizar Qabbani through the perspective of Michael Riffaterre’s semiotic theory. The analysis focuses on poetic symbols and expressions of ungrammaticality (indirection) as key mechanisms in the construction of meaning. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through close reading, while analysis was conducted using Riffaterre’s dual reading model, namely heuristic and hermeneutic readings. The study examines selected stanzas that display patterns of symbolic repetition, metaphorical language, poetic diction, and pronoun usage associated with the representation of a female figure. The findings indicate that the matrix of the poem centers on the figure of sayyidatī (سَيِّدَتِيْ), which is actualized through various linguistic models in the form of words, expressions, and poetic imagery that consistently refer to an idealized woman. The potential hypogram is represented by the figure of sayyidatī and its lexical variants, such as anti (أَنْتِ), unṡāyā (أُنْثاَيَ), and dumyyah (دُمْيةٌ), while the actual hypogram refers to Balqis al-Rawi, the poet’s wife, as well as to an intertextually related poem within the same anthology, Hal Ya‘rifu al-Qurrā’?. This study demonstrates that Riffaterre’s semiotic framework is effective in revealing the latent structure of meaning in Qabbani’s romantic poetry through the systematic relationship between matrix, model, and hypogram. Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis matriks dan melacak hipogram dalam puisi Hal Hādhihi ‘Alāmah karya Nizar Qabbani melalui perspektif semiotika Michael Riffaterre. Kajian ini berfokus pada simbol-simbol puitik dan ungkapan yang mengandung ketidaklangsungan ekspresi (ungramatikalitas) sebagai mekanisme utama pembentukan makna. Penelitian menggunakan metode kualitatif-deskriptif dengan teknik pembacaan cermat, sementara analisis data dilakukan melalui pembacaan ganda Riffaterre, yakni pembacaan heuristik dan hermeneutik. Analisis dibatasi pada bait-bait utama yang menunjukkan pola repetisi simbolik, penggunaan metafora, diksi puitik, dan kata ganti yang merepresentasikan figur perempuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa matriks puisi berpusat pada sosok sayyidatī (سَيِّدَتِيْ), yang dimanifestasikan melalui berbagai model linguistik berupa kata, ungkapan, dan citraan puitik yang mengarahkan makna pada figur perempuan ideal. Hipogram potensial puisi ini berupa representasi sosok sayyidatī beserta variasi leksikalnya, seperti anti (أَنْتِ), unṡāyā (أُنْثاَيَ), dan dumyyah (دُمْيةٌ), sedangkan hipogram aktualnya merujuk pada figur Balqis al-Rawi, istri penyair, serta keterkaitannya dengan puisi lain dalam antologi yang sama, yaitu Hal Ya‘rifu al-Qurrā’?. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa semiotika Riffaterre efektif dalam mengungkap struktur makna laten puisi romantis Qabbani melalui relasi sistematis antara matriks, model, dan hipogram.

Abstract

In married life, women often experience a significant transition that can leave them in shock. This study aims to describe the portrayal of women in the household in the short story "Perempuan Itu Pernah Cantik " by Mashdar Zainal and to examine the cultural elements that influence this portrayal. The analysis of women's images and cultural aspects is conducted using critical discourse analysis by Sara Mills and Ruth Wodak. The research employs a qualitative method. The findings reveal that the portrayal of women and cultural elements in "Perempuan Itu Pernah Cantik " remains highly relevant to contemporary women's lives and contributes to many household disputes. According to Sara Mills' perspective, the portrayal of women in the short story is categorized into six images: women associated with beauty; women who seek validation and praise; women who prioritize emotions; women who are dependent on men; women with maternal instincts; and women who compare their single life with their married life. Furthermore, according to Ruth Wodak, the cultural elements shaping the image of women in the short story fall into three categories: the culture of women as managers of domestic affairs, the culture of women as gentle, and the culture that considers child-rearing a woman's duty.

Abstract

Bahasa Indonesia: Cerpen Iblīsu Yantaṣiru karya Taufiq Al-Hakim mengisahkan seorang laki-laki saleh yang bertekad menegakkan kebenaran dan melawan kesesatan masyarakat. Akan tetapi, tekadnya akhirnya runtuh akibat godaan hawa nafsu duniawi. Narasinya disusun untuk menggambarkan pergulatan batin antara idealisme agama dan godaan materi, yang mencerminkan konflik moral yang kerap muncul di masyarakat. Alur cerita berkembang dari munculnya masalah dan tujuan sang tokoh utama hingga klimaks, yang mengungkap kegagalan spiritual akibat integritas moral yang lemah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji hubungan antartokoh dan bentuk-bentuk konflik dalam cerpen tersebut dengan menerapkan teori aktansial dan struktural fungsional AJ Greimas, menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif dan pendekatan naratologis. Sumber data utama adalah cerpen Iblīsu Yantaṣiru dan berbagai rujukan relevan. Data dikumpulkan melalui teknik baca, terjemah, dan catat, sedangkan analisisnya mengikuti model Miles dan Huberman: reduksi data, penyajian, dan simpulan. Analisis menunjukkan bahwa Nasik, sosok yang dikenal karena kesalehannya, adalah subjek yang ingin menebang “pohon kesesatan” demi menyelamatkan masyarakat (objek), didorong oleh keimanannya (pengirim) dan dibantu oleh kapak (penolong). Ia terhalang oleh setan dan hawa nafsunya sendiri (rintangan). Dalam kerangka struktur fungsional, Nasik gagal pada tahap transformasi karena motivasinya telah berubah dari niat tulus demi Allah menjadi hawa nafsu duniawi. Akibatnya, tujuan tidak tercapai dan masyarakat tetap dalam keadaan kebingungan.

Abstract

The rift between Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu in the alliance against the Houthi group reflects ideological shifts and political and diplomatic interests in the Middle East, while also marking a change in the direction of US-Israel relations under regional geopolitical pressure. This study aims to uncover the underlying ideology, power relations, and social context reflected in media coverage of the rift between Donald Trump and Benyamin Netanyahu. It also examines their behavioral patterns during critical moments of their alliance, particularly amid the Houthi conflict. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, this research applies Norman Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis framework. The primary data consist of two Arabic language news articles from Al-Jazeera and two from I24 News. Data collection involved translation, close reading, and note taking, while analysis followed the stages of data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that, at the textual level, experiential, relational, and expressive values convey ideology, self-representation, and power asymmetry between Trump and Netanyahu. At the discourse practice level, Al-Jazeera utilizes intertextuality and reported speech, whereas I24 News highlights direct quotations and harmonious narratives. At the sociocultural level, global political dynamics, institutional influences, media roles, and Trump’s extreme nationalist ideology shape discourse construction. The study concludes that in critical situations, Trump is opportunistic, while Netanyahu remains cooperative, reflecting Israel’s dependence on the United States for security and political legitimacy. This study contributes to critical discourse analysis by expanding the object and focus of analysis in explaining the dynamics of the relationship and behavior patterns of the two strategic alliances between Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu when in critical situations. However, because this study focuses on two media outlets, future research should involve American media and other international media to provide a more comprehensive understanding of US-Israel relations in the Middle East.

Abstract

Wadi’ Abu Fadil’s novel Al-Mutawali As-Salih portrays Lebanese social realities, particularly interreligious conflict and structural gender inequality. This study fills the gap in previous studies, which mostly focused on psychological and interpersonal aspects, by examining structural social inequalities through socialist realism. Using a descriptive, qualitative method and close-reading techniques, the data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model. The analysis applies socialist realism as the primary framework, supported by theories of power and patriarchy from Georg Lukács, Friedrich Engels, Pierre Bourdieu, and Deniz Kandiyoti. The findings reveal: (1) ideological tensions between Islam and Christianity, (2) spatial and educational restrictions on women, and (3) the normalization of patriarchal authority within family and social structures. The novel thus functions as a literary articulation of systemic inequality rather than merely a narrative of individual conflict. This study contributes to Arabic literary criticism by offering a structurally grounded interpretation of the novel within a socialist realist perspective.

Abstract

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh meningkatnya popularitas lagu-lagu daerah di tengah masyarakat, salah satunya lagu “Nangi Dana Tambora” yang berasal dari wilayah Bima-Dompu. Lagu ini tidak hanya menarik perhatian karena melodinya yang khas, tetapi juga karena kandungan pesannya yang menggambarkan peristiwa dahsyat letusan Gunung Tambora. Dengan lebih dari 2,6 juta penayangan di YouTube dan penyebaran luas di media sosial, lagu ini menjadi representasi budaya yang penting untuk dikaji. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis lirik lagu “Nangi Dana Tambora” melalui pendekatan semiotika Roland Barthes, guna mengungkap makna denotatif, konotatif, dan mitologis yang terkandung di dalamnya, serta menilai kesesuaiannya dengan realitas historis letusan Tambora. Metode yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitatif dengan teknik analisis isi, melalui tahapan mendengarkan, mencatat, menerjemahkan, dan mengaitkan lirik dengan konteks sejarah. Proses analisis mengikuti model Miles dan Huberman yang meliputi reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan simpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa lirik lagu tersebut tidak hanya merepresentasikan peristiwa fisik letusan, tetapi juga membentuk konstruksi ideologis yang membingkai bencana sebagai kehendak alam yang mutlak. Dalam lapisan mitologisnya, lagu ini cenderung mengabaikan dimensi sosial-politik dan menggiring pemahaman yang menormalisasi penderitaan. Temuan ini menegaskan pentingnya membaca representasi budaya secara kritis, terutama dalam konteks wacana populer yang membentuk cara pandang masyarakat terhadap sejarah dan bencana.
