Abstract

Background:  Vocational students often struggle to understand English texts that are complex and not related to their daily lives. In Eastern Indonesia, the lack of culturally relevant materials can reduce engagement and comprehension. Integrating local wisdom into reading materials can bridge this gap by connecting learning with students’ experiences, supported by schema theory and culturally responsive pedagogy. Aims: This study aimed to identify vocational students’ needs for English reading materials incorporating local wisdom in Banggai Laut, Central Sulawesi, and to examine how cultural elements relate to students’ reading challenges, learning needs, and preferences. Methods: This study employed a descriptive quantitative approach using a descriptive survey design within a needs analysis framework. The analysis of target needs (lacks, needs, and wants) was informed by Hutchinson and Waters, while learning needs (input, procedures, teacher roles, learner roles, and settings) were based on Nunan. Twenty students from SMK Al-Hajar and SMK Negeri 2 Banggai participated during the 2024/2025 academic year. Data were collected through a 33-item Likert-scale online questionnaire. The data were analyzed using mean scores and percentages to identify dominant response patterns. Results: The findings revealed that students experienced difficulties with complex sentence structures, technical vocabulary, and factual texts lacking cultural relevance. They reported strong needs for vocabulary support, culturally familiar topics, visual aids, and teacher guidance. Students preferred reading materials related to local folktales, coastal life, traditions, and regional history, and favored activities such as independent reading, small-group discussion, summarizing, highlighting keywords, and strategy modeling. Implications: Mapping students’ target and learning needs prior to material development is essential for vocational contexts. Incorporating local wisdom can support more engaging, comprehensible, and contextually relevant English learning aligned with students’ cultural backgrounds.

Abstract

This study examines the sociolinguistic functions of slang variations in the lyrical repertoire of rapper Dax, an artist notably absent from existing academic literature despite his significant cultural impact. Applying Eble’s theoretical framework of slang effects, this research employs qualitative analysis of four commercially successful songs spanning Dax’s creative evolution from 2018 to 2023. The methodology integrates computational screening with rigorous validation through Green’s Dictionary of Slang, ensuring lexicographical authority. Findings reveal 27 validated slang expressions functioning as sophisticated rhetorical instruments that simultaneously cultivate informality, signal group identification, and articulate opposition to authority. The analysis demonstrates Dax’s artistic progression from establishing hip-hop authenticity through multifaceted slang usage toward more focused explorations of spiritual turmoil and systemic critique. Theoretically, this study extends Eble’s framework to contemporary musical discourse, revealing slang’s multidimensional role in constructing identity and negotiating social meaning. Practically, it offers pedagogical applications for bridging sociolinguistic theory with authentic language practices. This investigation advances the field by documenting understudied linguistic phenomena in popular culture while providing a replicable model for analyzing vernacular speech in artistic contexts.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the types and frequency of speech errors in English speaking among English Department students in Gorontalo. Speaking is an important skill in language learning; however, many students still experience difficulties that lead to various errors during communication. These errors often appear in the form of hesitation, repetition, and self-correction during speaking activities. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method supported by simple quantitative analysis. Data were collected through audio recordings of students’ speaking tasks lasting 1-2 minutes, involving 10 students as participants. The data were then analyzed by identifying, classifying, and calculating the frequency of speech errors based on specific categories. The results show that there are four types of speech errors, namely filled pauses, repetition, silent pauses, and self-correction. Filled pauses are found to be the most dominant type of error, while self-correction appears the least frequently. These findings indicate that the dominance of filled pauses reflects a high cognitive load during the speech production process, as students manage real-time language planning. This study concludes that speech errors are a natural part of second language learning and can be reduced through continuous speaking practice and improved confidence in using english.

Abstract

Penelitian ini mengkaji penggunaan peralihan kode bahasa Inggris–Indonesia dalam komentar Instagram di kalangan mahasiswa. Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi jenis-jenis peralihan kode bahasa serta menganalisis fungsi komunikatifnya dalam interaksi media sosial. Data dikumpulkan dari komentar Instagram pada postingan yang berkaitan dengan kehidupan akademik dan pengalaman mahasiswa. Komentar-komentar tersebut dipilih berdasarkan relevansinya dengan topik, dan hanya komentar yang mengandung peralihan kode bahasa Inggris–Indonesia yang dianalisis. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif. Analisis didasarkan pada klasifikasi peralihan kode oleh Poplack, termasuk peralihan tag, peralihan antar-kalimat, dan peralihan intra-kalimat. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa hanya peralihan intra-kalimat dan antar-kalimat yang muncul dalam data, dengan peralihan intra-kalimat lebih dominan. Dari segi fungsi komunikatif, penelitian ini mengungkapkan bahwa peralihan kode bahasa digunakan oleh mahasiswa untuk mengekspresikan emosi, menunjukkan solidaritas, memberikan dukungan, menekankan makna, menyampaikan pendapat, dan mengikuti tren media sosial. Ungkapan-ungkapan dalam bahasa Inggris sering dipilih karena dianggap lebih ekspresif, modern, dan berdampak emosional dalam komunikasi daring. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa peralihan kode dalam komentar Instagram bukanlah hal yang acak, melainkan memiliki tujuan komunikatif yang penting dalam interaksi digital di kalangan mahasiswa. Hal ini berfungsi sebagai strategi linguistik untuk mengekspresikan identitas, emosi, dan hubungan sosial dalam komunikasi daring.

Using a descriptive quantitative survey design, data were collected from 17 students through a Google Forms questionnaire consisting of closed and open-ended questions. The findings show that students use different language varieties depending on context, interlocutor, and communicative purpose. Mixed language is dominant in classroom discussion and social media interaction, while Indonesian is frequently used when communicating with friends and lecturers. Local languages are mostly used at home and among peers who share similar regional backgrounds. The study indicates that students’ language choices are shaped by formality, solidarity, ease of communication, and identity negotiation.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the types of code-switching in informal student conversations and analyze the context of its occurrence, as well as to interpret the social function behind its use. The descriptive qualitative method was used in this study, focusing on the informal conversations of English Language Education Study Program students at State University of Gorontalo. The data collected was obtained through audio recordings which were then transcribed verbatim. Analysis was conducted using code-switching theory from Poplack (1980), which categorizes three types of switching: inter-sentential, intra-sentential, and tag switching. To interpret the social function, this study applies the theoretical framework from Holmes (2013) and Wardhaugh and Fuller (2021). The findings show that intra-sentential switching is the most frequently used type of code-switching. Code-switching often occurs in certain contexts: when discussing academic topics, when expressing feelings, when emphasizing an idea, and when maintaining group solidarity. This study also found that code-switching is used naturally as part of multilingual communication in students' daily interactions.

Abstract

This study explores dogs’ understanding of human words from a psycholinguistic perspective. The study aims to examine how dogs respond to lexical cues, prosodic features, and human body language during communication. A qualitative approach was employed using Netnographic Audiovisual Analysis of selected YouTube videos featuring human–dog interactions. The collected data were analyzed to identify patterns of canine responses to verbal commands and communicative signals. The findings suggest that dogs may associate specific words with actions and respond not only to lexical information but also to intonation and contextual cues. Furthermore, dogs demonstrate behaviors that reflect associative learning and attention to human communication. These findings contribute to the understanding of cross-species communication and provide insights into psycholinguistic processes involved in canine language comprehension.
