Abstract

This research analyzes idiomatic expressions in the voice lines of heroes in the video game Dota 2, using Charles Hockett's theory. This research highlights the potential of video games as an effective tool for language learning, offering native English speakers an authentic context to understand and internalize idiomatic expressions. Through qualitative analysis, 50 idiomatic expressions were identified and classified into six categories: Substitutes, Proper Names, Abbreviations, English Phrase Compounds, Allusions, and Slang. Specifically, Substitutes accounted for 8 idioms, Proper Names for 12 idioms, English Phrasal Compounds for 7 idioms, Figures of Speech for 14 idioms, and Slang for 9 idioms, with no examples of Abbreviations. Each idiom's contextual meaning is analyzed, thus contributing to a deeper understanding of their function in the game. The insights gained create an equivalence between digital games and language education, providing valuable implications for gamers and educators or learners in utilising video games for language development.

Abstract

This study analyzes dialect variation on social interactions among students participating in the Independent Student Exchange Program (PMM) under the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) initiative. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were obtained through interviews and Likert-scale questionnaires. The results showed that dialect variation significantly affected social interactions, with 80% of students perceiving differences in speaking style and 60% acknowledging a moderate impact on their interactions. Despite minor challenges in understanding dialects, students recognized the importance of dialect awareness, as reflected in an average score of 4.2 out of 5 on the Likert scale. The findings highlight the dual role of dialect variation as both a challenge and an opportunity for cultural exchange and social cohesion. Recommendations include incorporating dialect awareness sessions into program orientations to enhance intercultural communication skills.

Abstract

This research addresses early childhood language acquisition (2 years old) with a focus on the acquisition of everyday words. The process of language acquisition involves both biological and social factors, in which interaction with the environment plays an important role. Children learn their first language through everyday communication, not formal teaching. This study used a qualitative descriptive method to observe and analyze the phonology of words produced by 2-year-old Salman. The results showed that children at this age experience rapid language development, with the most frequently used words related to daily needs such as food, body parts, and family members. These findings are important for parents, educators, and researchers in supporting children's optimal development.
