Abstract

Background: This study examines low-competency EFL students' first-time interpretation performance, concentrating on how they use their limited linguistic proficiency to interpret the messages. Student interpreters often face difficulties due to limited linguistic proficiency, which can result in misinterpretations in their first performance. However, there is currently a dearth of studies in this specific context.Methodology: Since how students use various techniques needs to be revealed in detail, their performances are recorded in the form of videos. Purposive sampling was used to select students who lacked fluency and interpreting experience. A corpus-assisted discourse analysis was applied to a dataset of 281 instances to identify recurring patterns in students' strategies. The analysis process was divided into two cycles to prevent data loss due to careless attention and insufficient reflection on human language patterns.Findings: Approximation was the most used strategy, occurring 46 times, followed by substitution at 38 instances, and compression appeared 30 times. Other strategies included reproduction (31 times), word-for-word translation (24 instances), and stalling (18 instances), with ten instances of omissions. The results further show that students keep having difficulty with vocabulary and general language transfer, which causes them to misinterpret messages. Nevertheless, students can achieve a balance between meaning loss and compression even with their insufficient language abilities in interpreting. A significant finding is the discovery of a new technique—cultural reference—that students employ to interpret utterances through cultural adaptation, which fundamentally alters how students interpret the language.Conclusion: This study concluded that students’ stronger cultural proficiency in one of their languages significantly affects their interpretation strategy. Students also frequently use wrong approximations to simplify complex information or manage time constraints while interpreting, leading to errors.Originality: The study's substantive findings clarify that inexperienced interpreters' strategies are influenced by cultural references, which contributes to fulfilling interpreting studies, particularly on first-time interpreting performance.

Abstract

Abstract Background: Political dynasties represent an enduring challenge to democratic consolidation in Indonesia. However, the role of media discourse in shaping public perceptions of dynastic power remains under-explored, particularly regarding how editorial narratives frame dynastic politics and subsequent protest movements. Drawing upon Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and Martin & White’s Appraisal Theory, this study conceptualizes editorials as discursive spaces where political legitimacy is systematically constructed and negotiated. Methodology: This study analyzes three editorials published in The Jakarta Post in 2024: “Breaking A Dynastic Habit” (July 5), “People Have Spoken” (August 26), and “Thank You for Speaking Up” (August 29). These texts address political dynasties and protests triggered by the controversial revision of minimum age requirements for regional head candidates. This media outlet was selected for its prominent national standing, its English-speaking readership, and its influential role in shaping elite public discourse. The analysis integrates Appraisal resources (Attitude, Engagement, and Graduation) with Fairclough’s three-dimensional CDA framework. Attitude is employed to identify evaluative stances toward political actors; Engagement to trace the management of dialogic voices; and Graduation to assess the intensity of political event representations. Findings: The results reveal a patterned evaluative asymmetry: political dynasties are represented through negative moral judgments and procedural critiques, whereas protest movements are framed as rational, ethically grounded civic responses. Intensification resources contribute to framing political dynamics as urgent or significant, while heteroglossic strategies allow for the inclusion of diverse voices while maintaining a specific evaluative position. These linguistic patterns indicate a systematic inclination to steer readers toward particular interpretations of political legitimacy. Conclusion: Editorial discourse does more than report events; it constructs interpretative frameworks that influence the conceptualization of legitimacy and dissensus within the context of contemporary democracy. Originality: This research extends the application of Appraisal Theory in ideological discourse analysis by demonstrating how evaluative language operates systematically to represent political actors and processes in a volatile democratic landscape.
