Abstract

This research analyzed the distribution of languages and scripts on public signs of high schools in Semarapura, at SMA Negeri 2 Semarapura and SMK Negeri 1 Klungkung. Data were collected through observation, photographs, and interviews with principals, teachers, and students using a qualitative descriptive method. A total of 78 signs were collected. The findings showed that most signs were monolingual, with Bahasa Indonesia as the dominant language (71.79%). Bi-script signs using Indonesian with Balinese script, represent 10.26%, while English monolingual signs were relatively rare (2.56%). Bilingual signs were identified, with 7.69% in Indonesian-English and 11.54% in English-Indonesian. Unfortunately, there is no multilingual signs were found. The use of Bahasa Indonesia was the most common on the school signs, which followed national language rules like Law No. 24 of 2009 and Presidential Regulation No. 63 of 2019. The use of Balinese script showed that the schools also followed the local language rule, Bali Governor Regulation No. 80 of 2018. Based on the interviews, the choice of language and script was based on how well the message could be understood, students needed, and efforts to preserve local culture. English was used mainly for academic or international purposes.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the application of translanguaging by English teachers during learning activities. The primary focus is to identify the types of translanguaging employed by teachers, determine its frequency across different phases of learning, and examine the reasons behind its use. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, utilizing classroom observations and in-depth interviews with two English teachers as participants. The results reveal that translanguaging consistently occurred in three phases of learning: pre-activity (24 instances), core activity (65 instances), and post-activity (18 instances). Teachers primarily used translanguaging to provide instructions, explain materials, ask and answer questions, give affirmations, offer praise, and manage classroom interactions. The findings further indicate that translanguaging appeared most frequently during core activities, particularly when explaining grammar and facilitating discussions. The teachers’ reasons for using translanguaging included enhancing student comprehension, sustaining engagement, and fostering emotional connections. This study concludes that translanguaging is an effective pedagogical strategy in multilingual classrooms, as it supports students’ understanding and fosters an inclusive learning atmosphere. Nevertheless, the findings are limited by the small number of participants and the single-site context; therefore, further research with a broader scope is recommended.

Abstract

Language plays a crucial role in reflecting social identity and interaction, particularly in digital communication contexts. This study investigates the use of Sundanese swear words in Reza Auditore’s YouTube videos from a sociolinguistic perspective. While previous studies have primarily focused on swear words in face-to-face communication, limited attention has been given to their use in online media. Therefore, this research aims to identify the types, functions, and social factors influencing the use of swear words in digital discourse. This study employed a descriptive qualitative design using a case study approach. The data were collected from nine selected YouTube videos through observation and note-taking techniques. The analysis followed Miles and Huberman’s interactive model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed twelve Sundanese swear words categorized into four types: intelligence-based, animal-related, sexist, and racist terms. Among these, intelligence-based swear words were the most frequently used. In terms of function, swear words served four main purposes: emotional expression, abusive expression, social bonding, and attention-getting, with emotional expression being the most dominant. Furthermore, the use of swear words was influenced by four social factors: social context and environment, social relationships and intimacy, emotional expression and stress, and media and popular culture. The findings suggest that swear words in digital communication are not merely offensive but function as expressive and relational tools that contribute to audience engagement and identity construction. This study highlights the dynamic role of language in online environments and provides insights into sociolinguistic practices in digital media.
