Abstract

A sincere invitation is a speech act with a significant role in interpersonal communication, and the purpose of this study is to explore the speech acts commonly used by Yemeni speakers to convey sincere invitations in their daily interactions. The qualitative research approach focuses on the linguistic and social contexts in which sincere invitations are made. Data is collected through personal observation and online interviews, which simulate brief, everyday social conversations. The study includes a purposive sample of native Arabic-speaking Yemeni individuals residing in the provinces of north Yemen. The data analysis is based on Searle's speech act theory, which is used to evaluate a speaker's adherence to Felicity Requirements as an indicator of the authenticity of their invitations. The findings indicate that Yemeni speakers use declarative and interrogative sentences to convey indirect illocutionary acts of genuine invitations. Furthermore, the genuineness of these invitations is established through the observance of felicity conditions proposed by Searle.

Abstract

The novel “A Thousand Splendid Suns” is written by Khalid Hosseini, an Afghan American writer, about the lives of Afghans in Afghanistan. Considering the novel as a social semiotic, this paper intends to analyze the politeness strategies used by the two main characters: Mariam, the female protagonist, and Rasheed the male antagonist to conclude whether the female character is more polite or the male character. This paper is qualitative research, and it uses the theoretical framework of Penelope Brown and Stephen Levinson. The result of the paper indicates that both the characters used bald on record dominantly followed by positive politeness, negative politeness, and off record; also, the result indicates that women are more polite than men in the novel. It is because the female character used more off record and negative politeness than the male character. This paper adds to our knowledge of how the female and male characters are portrayed in the novel A Thousand Splendid Suns, and it also suggests that future researchers conduct ethnographic research to conclude about the politeness of the male and female in Afghan Society itself.

Abstract

"Ditioeng Memeh Hoedjan" is an ancient literary fable that was created and written by Pangeran Aria Soeria Atmajda, who was also the 20th Regent of Sumedang (1883-1919). This fable contains character values that portray virtuous behaviours that every individual should possess. This study aims to describe and analyze the character values contained in the fable "Ditioeng Memeh Hoedjan" using Sundanese ethno-pedagogical perspectives. The analysis of this fable will be further transformed into a Lesson Plan (RPP) for teaching Civics Education to elementary school students. The research method employed in this study is qualitative descriptive. The data for this research were obtained from the manuscript of the "Ditioeng Memeh Hoedjan" fable, which is housed in the Geusan Ulun Museum in Sumedang. The research findings indicate that out of the ten pages in this fable, ten paragraphs contain character values. Based on the classification, four paragraphs discuss religious values, 1 paragraph discusses integrity values, three paragraphs discuss tolerance values, and two paragraphs discuss creative values. The analysis of these values demonstrates positive behaviours that we can emulate to become knowledgeable individuals, far from being arrogant or conceited. These values can mainly be applied to elementary school students in Civics Education, which upholds the values of Pancasila, such as being obedient to religion, exhibiting friendly behaviour, acquiring knowledge, and avoiding harmful behaviours.
