Abstract

Academic writing for students should be a routine activity, but it is not easy especially that concerning with the writing of the background research that must meet certain criteria. This paper is the result of a review of the background section of English students’ thesis which often has an unclear pattern. This paper compares the patterns (moves) developed in writing thesis backgrounds from two institutions and analyzes their advantages and disadvantages. The results show that basically the writing of background research has fulfilled the basic elements of the move, but rarely found complete move in one writing and the pattern is often not sequential. [Menulis akademik (academic writing) bagi mahasiswa seharusnya menjadi aktifitas rutin, tetapi tidak mudah terutama menyangkut penulisan bagian latar belakang (background) yang harus memenuhi kriteria tertentu. Tulisan ini merupakan hasil kajian terhadap bagian latar belakang skripsi mahasiswa bahasa Inggris yang seringkali memiliki pola yang tidak jelas. Tulisan ini membandingkan pola (move) yang dikembangkan dalam menulis background skripsi dari dua institusi dan menganalisis kelebihan dan kekurang­an tulisan dari masing-masing sumber objek. Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa pada dasarnya penulisan latar belakang penelitian sudah memenuhi unsur-unsur move yang seharusnya ada, tetapi jarang didapati move yang lengkap dalam satu tulisan dan pola yang  ada sering tidak berurut.]

Abstract

This study aims at analyzing social issues like segregation and discrimination in the webtoon Days of Hana by Seokwoo, which tells a fictional story about humans and werewolves. This study uses Multimodal Discourse Analysis (MDA) following Kress and van Leeuwen’s Visual Grammar framework to look at how visual elements create meaning. The analysis uses a qualitative descriptive method to look at how discrimination against werewolves is represented through visual elements, including facial expressions, perspective angles, and image composition. The findings show that Days of Hana does a great job of using different modes to show social hierarchies and power dynamics, which adds depth to the story and really connects with readers emotionally. This study shows how webtoons serve as easy-to-access cultural media that can communicate important social messages.

Abstract

This study investigates the semantic evolution of Generation Alpha's slang as reflected in the lyrics of Jelly House's YouTube song Last Rizzday Night. As a digital-native generation, Gen Alpha frequently reshapes language through their engagement with digital media. Analysing 15 slang terms, including "Rizz," "Skibidi," and "Sigma," the research examines how their meanings align with or diverge from standard dictionary definitions. Using a qualitative descriptive methodology, the study highlights linguistic shifts driven by digital culture, such as "Rizz" symbolizing charm and social success, and "Sigma" representing self-reliant confidence. The findings emphasize the role of contextual semantics in understanding generational language trends, offering insights for educators, content creators, and marketers aiming to connect with Gen Alpha effectively.

Abstract

This research explores Roz's emotional growth as reflected through her language choices in The Wild Robot movie using the Systemic functional Linguistics (SFL) framework, specifically the Mood system, as well as Barrett's Constructed Emotion theory. This study aims to analyze how Roz's transition from a task-focused robot to an emotionally aware being is reflected through Mood types: declarative, interrogative, and imperative. Using a qualitative descriptive method, Roz's utterances are analyzed based on Mood types and their interpersonal meanings. The results show that declaratives dominate at all stages of Roz's development, but change from mechanical and logical statements to reflective and relational expressions. Interrogatives decreased in frequency, but became more profound when used to explore abstract concepts such as love. Meanwhile, imperatives transform from procedural commands to expressions of protection and care. These linguistic changes reflect Roz's emotional development, which is supported by Barrett's theory that emotions are constructed through social, psychological, and neurological experiences. This research highlights the relationship between language and character development, and contributes to understanding how fictional dialog can convey emotional development.

Abstract

Abstract. The purpose of this research is to examine Cristiano Ronaldo's illocutionary speech acts and how they affect his personality in the context of football. The study uses a descriptive qualitative methodology to analyze transcripts of ten interviews and podcasts covering Ronaldo's career, from his early days at Manchester United to his most recent appearances. The analysis employs Searle's (1969) classification of illocutionary acts—representatives, directives, commissives, declarative, and expressive—alongside Sperber and Wilson's (1996) Relevance Theory and McCrae's (1999) Five-Factor Personality Model. The results show that Cristiano Ronaldo used 242 illocutionary speech acts, with 104 representative speech acts accounting for 43% of the total. These acts expressed declarative statements about his abilities and self-confidence, followed by 55 expressives (23%), 40 commissives (16%), 36 directives (15%), and 7 declaratives (3%). These patterns reflect key personality traits: high Openness (articulating beliefs candidly), Conscientiousness (goal-oriented commitments), extraversion (emotional engagement with audiences), moderate Agreeableness (collaborative directives), and low Neuroticism (stable emotional expressions). The study concludes that Cristiano Ronaldo's strategic use of speech acts not only shapes his public persona as a disciplined and inspirational figure but also corresponds to the psychological characteristics that support his professional success and cultural influence. This integration of pragmatic and psycholinguistic frameworks provides new insights into how linguistic behaviour reflects and reinforces personality in high-stakes situations. Keywords: Cristiano Ronaldo; interviews; illocutionary acts; personality traits; psycho-pragmatics

Abstract

This paper employs one strand of Critical Discourse Analysis as a framework to discuss a discourse of political figures. It is a speech delivered by Barack Obama with regard to the issue of 46th president election in 2020 between Trump and Biden. That approach is van Dijk’s (1993) social cognition theory that is focused on the elements of social cognition contained in the speech. In line with Memon, et al. (2014) findings on analyzing Benazir Bhutto’s last speech, there are nine elements of social cognition. Meanwhile, the findings of current study show that there are three social cognition elements in the speech. They are social attachment, mind control, and glorification. In conclusion, social cognition can explore mental awareness of the scenario writer which then forms the text. Keywords: critical discourse analysis, social cognition, speech

Abstract

Derivational affixation is a linguistic process that involves the creation of new words by adding prefixes, suffixes, or infixes to existing words. These affixes can modify the word's part of speech, alter its meaning, or both. The present study had the objective of identifying various types of derivational affixes and examining the morphological transformations they bring about in health-related terms within CNN's online news platform. Employing qualitative research methods informed by Katamba's theoretical framework (2005), the investigation utilized a dataset sourced from the news website https://edition.cnn.com/. The dataset encompassed 30 health-related news articles spanning topics such as COVID-19, mental health, food, beauty, sleep, and pregnancy. Based on data analysis from 30 health news, there were 13 words containing derivational prefixes and 64 words containing derivational suffixes. The words in derivational prefix did not change the part of speech but changed the meaning. In derivational suffixes, there are 7 types of changes that change word from verb to noun (23 words), adjective to noun (14 words), noun to noun (10 words), noun to adjective (7 words), adjective to adverb (5 words), verb to adjective (4 words), and the last noun to verb (1 word). From the findings, it can be concluded that the addition of affixes to words explains the function of sentence structure. Derivational suffixes are found the most because they have many interactions of forms, meanings, and functions. Keywords: derivational affix, health, prefix, suffix, news

Abstract

This study investigates the use of expressive speech acts in the motivational spoken word performances of Prince EA. Expressive speech acts, which convey the speaker's emotions and attitudes, play a crucial role in persuasive and motivational communication. The aim was to understand how Prince EA effectively engages and inspires his audience through these acts. A qualitative analysis was conducted on a selection of Prince EA's spoken word performances. Using speech act theory as a framework, instances of expressive speech acts were identified and categorized. Data was collected through transcription and thematic analysis of the videos. The analysis revealed a significant presence of expressive speech acts in these performances that cover apologizing, condoling, lamenting, showing attitude, agreeing, using exclamation, wishing, and thanking. These acts were predominantly expressing hope, encouragement, empathy, and personal conviction. The frequent use of these expressions contributed to the emotional resonance and motivational impact of the performances. The findings suggest that the effective use of expressive speech acts enhances the motivational appeal of Prince EA's spoken word performances. By conveying genuine emotions and attitudes, a connection with the audience is created, fostering a sense of empathy and inspiration. Hence, this study highlights the importance of expressive speech acts in motivational speaking and offers insights for speakers aiming to engage and motivate their audiences effectively.Keyword: pragmatic, ethics, speech acts, motivation

Abstract

This study explores how environmental messages are constructed and conveyed through the music video Earth by Lil Dicky, analyzed using Fiske’s (1987) semiotic theory. Through the three levels of semiotic analysis namely reality, representation, and ideology, this study explains how verbal and visual signs in the music video work together to form meaningful messages related to environmental issues. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, this study analyzes selected segments of the video that depict environmental problems such as ecological damage and human negligence. The findings reveal that the video utilizes symbolic representations—including animated characters, color schemes, camera angles, and lyrical expressions—to convey themes of conservationism, anthropocentrism, and global collectivism. The song “Earth” serves not only as entertainment but also as a medium to raise awareness about the global environmental crisis and the urgency of collective action. This study contributes to the field of linguistics, particularly semiotic studies, by demonstrating how environmentally themed messages can be communicated through popular media.

Abstract

The main subject of this study is the implementation of traditional masculinity and femininity theories within the Heteronormativity framework in 3 sequential volumes of Ms. Marvel by author G. Willow Wilson. The author relies on a post-structuralist feminist framework to describe gender stereotypes, using content analysis methods, which are mixed-methods quantitatively and qualitatively. This thesis attempts to answer a fundamental question; How Gender Stereotypes were presented in Ms. Marvel Comics?. In this findings, the data that have been collected shows significant differences in the distribution of social role attributes, traits, behaviors in characters divided into categories of masculine and feminine attributes. These quantitative data are then processed. Masculine attributes still dominated by male characters, and vice versa. , Nevertheless, there were at least a total of 67% (n=4) of female characters who were more associated with masculine attributes.
