Abstract

Training on writing job application letters and Curriculum Vitae (CV) for Vocational High School (SMK) students aims to prepare students with essential competencies required when entering the workforce. Although SMK students are equipped with practical and technical skills in specific fields, many of them lack adequate skills in preparing professional job application documents. The ability to write an effective job application letter and a well-structured CV is a crucial complementary skill that can significantly improve graduates’ employment opportunities after completing their studies.The objective of this training is to provide SMK students with practical skills in writing professional job application letters and CVs, to help them understand how to tailor these documents to specific job positions and target companies, and to enhance their self-confidence in facing the recruitment and selection process. The training methods consisted of theoretical explanations combined with hands-on practice, group discussions to share experiences and strategies in preparing job application documents, simulations of job application letter and CV writing, direct feedback from instructors, and demonstrations on developing attractive CVs that comply with industry standards. The benefits of this training include improved students’ ability to prepare professional job application documents, increased confidence in applying for jobs, better understanding of how to highlight skills and experiences effectively, and enhanced awareness of the importance of written communication as an essential competency for young professionals. This training is expected to better prepare SMK students for entering the workforce and succeeding in the recruitment process.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the use of polysemy in the lyrics of Conan Gray’s Wishbone album using a semantic approach. The research focuses on identifying polysemous words, classifying their types based on Asher’s (2011) theory of logical and accidental polysemy, and explaining how contextual meanings shape their interpretation. A qualitative descriptive method was applied, and the data were collected through document analysis of the official lyrics from twelve songs in the album. The findings reveal a total of 66 polysemous words, consisting of 45 logical polysemy cases (68.2%) and 21 accidental polysemy cases (31.8%). The dominance of logical polysemy indicates that Conan Gray predominantly uses systematic meaning extension, whereas accidental polysemy contributes symbolic and emotional complexity. The analysis demonstrates that polysemy plays an essential role in expressing themes of love, heartbreak, identity, and emotional vulnerability in the album. This research provides a linguistic contribution to the study of semantics in contemporary song lyrics and offers pedagogical value in helping EFL/ESL learners understand lexical ambiguity and meaning construction in authentic texts.

Abstract

This study analyzes conversational implicature and the flouting of Gricean maxims in the movie “Jurassic World” using a qualitative descriptive method. The data consist of selected utterances spoken by the main characters, such as Owen Grady, Claire Dearing, and other supporting characters, which were transcribed and analyzed based on Grice's (1975) cooperative principle, including the maxims of quantity, quality, relation, and manner. The findings show that the characters frequently flout these maxims to express hidden meanings, especially in moments of conflict, persuasion, and moral tension arising from human control and manipulation of nature. Such flouting is not a communication failure, but rather a pragmatic strategy to assert dominance, conceal fear, or negotiate power. The study concludes that conversational implicature and maxim flouting in “Jurassic World” reflect realistic and strategic human communication under pressure and uncertainty. This research also highlights the relevance of pragmatic theory in analyzing film dialogues as a medium of complex social and emotional expression.

Abstract

This research employs a descriptive qualitative design to analyze the politeness strategies used in the interview between Taylor Swift and Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show. The study aims to explore how these strategies help maintain rapport and manage social dynamics between the speakers. Data was collected from the interview transcript, focusing on four politeness strategies outlined by Brown and Levinson (1987): bald on record, positive politeness, negative politeness, and off-record strategies. The data collection process involved transcribing the interview, identifying politeness strategies, and categorizing the utterances accordingly. For data analysis, the pragmatic identity method and the equalizing technique were applied, allowing the researcher to examine how the speakers manage social identity and maintain balance in the interaction. The findings revealed the frequency of each strategy: positive politeness was used 16 times, off-record strategies appeared 7 times, negative politeness was observed 6 times, and bald on record was used 3 times. These results show that positive politeness was the most frequent strategy, underscoring its importance in fostering solidarity and rapport in media conversations.
