Abstract

This study addresses the low Japanese reading comprehension of students in the Japanese Language Education study program at FKIP, Universitas Riau. Interviews with students and lecturers revealed that the main obstacle was difficulty in understanding texts due to unfamiliar Japanese vocabulary. The research aimed to examine the effectiveness of comic media adapted from Riau Malay folklore to improve students’ reading comprehension in 2021. The study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design employing a pretest-posttest control group. The population consisted of 40 students enrolled in reading comprehension courses, with 20 students in the experimental class and 20 in the control class. The experimental class received three cycles of treatment using the comic media. Data were collected through reading comprehension tests, and analysis using an Independent Sample T-Test via SPSS version 25 yielded a significance value of 0.001, which is less than 0.05. This indicates that the Riau Malay folklore comic media effectively improved students’ Japanese reading comprehension.

Abstract

This research and development aimed to produce descriptive text reading materials based on a constructivism approach. This research was conducted through the following procedures: (1) analyzing needs; (2) designing the product; (3) developing the initial product; (4) conducting a limited trial; (5) revising the product; (6) conducting a large-scale trial; and (7) producing the product (a prototype). The instrument used in this research was a questionnaire addressed to experts, users (Bahasa Indonesia teachers), and the audience (grade VII students of SMP/MTs). In addition, a cloze test was utilized to measure the readability of descriptive texts and the main narration of the learning materials. The development of the materials was carried out based on the five phases of constructivism proposed by Needham. The product trial was conducted in grade VII junior high schools in Kabupaten Lingga, Kepulauan Riau Province, which were not exposed to Covid-19. This study concluded that the developed learning materials were feasible for descriptive text reading materials, and it was expected that these materials would provide a positive contribution to the development of educational science.

Data analysis utilized a qualitative descriptive method with a semantic approach to identify the forms and functions of dysphemism. The results of the study indicate that there are 15 forms of dysphemism, namely figurative expressions, metaphors, re-modeling, circumlocution, clipping, ellipsis, abbreviations, acronyms, one word replacing another, general to specific, part for the whole, hyperbole, meaning beyond the statement, jargon, and colloquialisms. In terms of function, dysphemisms are used to convey things considered taboo or indecent, describe situations negatively, express criticism, belittle and mock, as well as exaggerate situations and hurl insults.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the types and functions of implicature in the film Home Sweet Loan directed by Sabrina Rochelle. This film was selected as the object of the study because the dialogues among the characters contain many implied meanings that reflect social realities, economic pressures, and psychological conflicts experienced by young people. Implicatures in this film emerge through indirect communication related to the social, emotional, and relational contexts among characters, making it interesting to analyze using pragmatic studies. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach. The data consist of utterances or dialogues among the characters in the film Home Sweet Loan that contain implicatures. The data were collected through observation and note-taking techniques by watching the film repeatedly and then transcribing relevant conversations. Furthermore, the data were analyzed by classifying the types and functions of implicature based on Grice’s implicature theory. The results of the study indicate that there are two types of implicature in the film Home Sweet Loan, namely conventional implicature and non-conventional implicature. Conventional implicatures are found in utterances whose implied meanings can be generally understood, while non-conventional implicatures appear in utterances that require an understanding of the social and emotional contexts of the characters. In addition, the functions of implicature identified include assertive, directive, expressive, commissive, and declarative functions. Thus, the use of implicature in the film Home Sweet Loan enriches communication, portrays the social realities of young people, and effectively conveys social messages. This study is expected to contribute to pragmatic studies, particularly implicature analysis in film media, and serve as a reference for students, researchers, and film practitioners in understanding the use of implicature as a communication strategy in film dialogue.
