These days, music has a huge impact on its listeners who come from a wide range of backgrounds. Sadly, very view listeners are aware of the hidden and implicit meanings contained in the song lyrics. Thus, investigating deixis found in Islamic music by Maher Zain is crucial to provide the listeners with precise interpretations. This current study attempts to discover the varieties of deixis found in lyrics of the songs by Maher Zain ("Thank You Allah” album). This library study used Mahar Zain’s English lyric transcripts of 16 songs as the object of the investigation. Several procedures were done to analyze the data, namely data reduction, data display, as well as drawing conclusion and verification. The results revealed five varieties of deixis found in Maher Zain’s Islamic songs, namely 191 data for place deixis, 43 data for relative-time deixis, 27 data for place deixis, and several names related to The Prophet Muhammad SAW that referred to social deixis. In this study, there was no data found related to absolute-time deixis. These current findings are expected to give deeper understanding related to implied meanings of the artwork, especially song lyrics in which the song can be used as source of motivation in life.

Purpose - Pesantren, as Indonesia’s longstanding Islamic boarding schools, have traditionally prioritized Arabic for religious instruction. However, in response to global academic demands, many pesantren are now adopting multilingual approaches, including the integration of English for Academic Purposes (EAP). This study aims to analyze the specific linguistic needs of pesantren students to inform the design of EAP curricula tailored to multilingual Islamic education contexts. Methods - Employing a descriptive qualitative ethnographic method, the research collected data through semi-structured interviews, questionnaires, and observations involving 30 randomly selected university students and institutional stakeholders in an East Java pesantren. Findings – The findings reveal that multilingualism in pesantren fosters cognitive flexibility, intercultural competence, and religious-literacy development, but it also presents substantial challenges for acquiring academic English proficiency. Research implications / limitations -This study highlights the importance of conducting rigorous needs analysis for EAP course design in pesantren and offers practical insights for improving curriculum design, language policy, and teacher preparation. Limitations include the contextual focus on a single pesantren university and the absence of a comparative multilingual education model.Originality - The study’s originality lies in its integration of EAP with Islamic multilingual education, a combination underexplored in current literature. It provides a framework for enhancing pesantren students' academic readiness in both local and global contexts.

Background: Figurative language deals with non-literal language to shift meaning by comparing other words to the original composition. This appears in many works of literature, including the holy Qur’an. Therefore, it is essential to study, not intending to reduce or increase the meaning of the Qur’an. Aims: This study aims to identify the types of figurative language in the surahs As-Saffat and Ar-Rahman and examine the most dominant figurative language in both surahs. Methods: This qualitative study analyzed the linguistic phenomena in the verses. The objects were As-Saffat, which consists of 182 verses, and surah Ar-Rahman, which consists of 78 verses. The data were presented descriptively. Results: The findings revealed that 81 verses in both Surah As-Saffat and Ar-Rahman contain figurative language. Surah As-Saffat contained 32 data points of figurative language, while Ar-Rahman had 49 data points. The most dominant type of figurative language in Surah As-Saffat is ellipsis, and in Surah Ar-Rahman, it is rhetoric. Implications: The analysis results reflect that academics can be a form of integration between religious and general science, such as literature. Therefore, a more in-depth al-Qur’an can be easily perceived. Although related to general science, it does not leave the rules in interpreting the Qur’an. This can enrich the reference for Teaching English as a Foreign Language.

The use of podcasts as language teaching and learning has obtained more attention today. Podcasts have been used mostly to improve students' listening skill that is proven by numerous studies to determine how podcasts might assist students in improving their listening skills. Whereas, podcasting promotes activities for the students to practice their whole English skills. This is a literature research that provides a review of podcasting to assist EFL learners in mastering English. As many as 20 articles were used as the data sources in arranging this article. The researchers searched the articles using the keywords ‘podcast’ and ‘podcasting’. The difference between this article among previous studies is the focus on the use of podcasting for EFL learnings. The previous studies mostly discussed podcasts and podcasting for improving listening ability. The review found that podcasting is an interesting medium to be used in English learning. However, several challenges arise such as lack of technological competence, lack of vocabulary and grammar, unstable internet connection, and limited facilities. Consequently, it is advised that when using podcasts, teachers give their students appropriate direction on how to maximize their potential.

Interactive speaking skills encompass abilities such as agreeing, disagreeing, expressing opinions, clarifying statements, responding to challenges, offering suggestions, reinforcing ideas, and providing accurate information. However, a preliminary study revealed a lack of interactive engagement during English lessons, leading to minimal student participation. This research examines how teachers utilize interactive speaking strategies for effective pronunciation instruction and evaluates students’ pronunciation skills. Conducted as a qualitative case study with eighth-grade English teachers, data were collected through classroom observations, interviews, and documentation. The analysis was descriptive, with results presented in narrative form rather than numerical data. Triangulation methods helped verify the trustworthiness of the data. The findings indicate that, although the teacher assigns dialogue-based tasks aimed at promoting interaction, several key elements of interactive speaking theory are not implemented, limiting classroom interaction. This shortcoming diminishes the effectiveness of pronunciation teaching and negatively affects the overall quality of English language education.

Syntactical agreement is a pivotal grammatical relation that ensures coherence between elements in a clause, particularly in terms of number, gender, and person. Failing to master it results in grammatical errors that undermine communication. Focusing on the Inthiq! 2-Speak English! film by Gontor TV, the research aims to identify the types of agreement employed by the characters and their appropriateness across different agreement structures. Employing a qualitative content analysis design, data were collected from the film’s transcription and analyzed using established grammatical frameworks and relevant previous studies. The findings reveal two major agreement types: subject-verb agreement (55 occurrences) and pronoun-antecedent agreement (10 occurrences). Through a systematic analysis of these patterns, the researcher examines how accurately and consistently agreement forms are used in authentic dialogue and interprets how these naturally occurring examples can be transformed into pedagogical materials. The study highlights its relevance to EFL instruction by demonstrating that authentic media, particularly locally produced films, can serve as effective resources for teaching grammatical agreement, enhancing learners’ syntactic awareness, and illustrating real-life language use. The findings suggest that agreement patterns are predominantly simple and consistent, reflecting simplified spoken input rather than full natural complexity. Overall, the results provide both linguistic insights and practical implications for integrating audio-visual materials into EFL teaching.

Vocabulary recognition plays a crucial role in identifying key information of spoken text in listening comprehension. This study aligns with Brown’s theory, which posits that listening involves bottom-up processing that requires learners to recognize and interpret sounds, words, and grammatical structures. This study aimed to examine how effectively the Listen A Minute website helped tenth-grade students of Secondary Level at Senior High School in Central Java recognize key words through listening exercises. A quasi-experimental approach with an experimental and control group was employed. The sample consisted of 60 tenth-grade students of Secondary Level at Senior High School in Central Java . The experiment used a material from the Listen A Minute website, while the control group received the conventional listening. Data were collected from pre- and post-test listening assessments, which were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Mann–Whitney U test. Results revealed a significant difference between the two groups, with a p-value of 0.003 (p 0.05). These findings reject the null hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis. The findings indicated that students’ ability to identify keywords during listening tasks significantly improved when using the Listen A Minute website. Therefore, the website can be considered an effective pedagogical tool for improving listening comprehension, particularly in identifying key information in spoken texts.

This study aims to identify various types of word-formation processes and their frequencies in English-language articles published in the Gontor magazine, and to explore their relevance to the teaching of writing skills in the context of English Language Teaching (ELT). The background of this study was the urgency of understanding word formation to enrich vocabulary mastery and morphological awareness among learners, particularly in Islamic educational settings. Such understanding significantly contributed to the development of writing skills through precise word choice, lexical diversity, and the composition of more accurate, formal, and coherent texts. The research adopted qualitative approach, particularly content analysis. Primary data consisting of word-formation processes were obtained from ten English articles in Gontor magazine. The data were then analyzed through stages of identification, classification, and description by applying Krippendorff’s content analysis theory and Yule’s classification of word formation. Frequency calculations were also employed to determine the most requently occuring processes. The findings identified five types of word formation processes with a total of 269 occurrences: derivation (69, 5%), borrowing (16, 3%), compounding (13, 01%), initialism (0, 7%), and multiple processes (0, 3%). Among these, derivation appeared as the most dominant type. The results indicated that understanding word formation contributes to vocabulary development and enhances writing quality through more organized and varied linguistic patterns. In addition, the dominance of formal linguistic forms and the absence of processes, such as coinage and blending, suggest that articles in Gontor magazine consistently employ an academic writing style. Therefore, the magaize can serve as a relevant teaching source for writing instruction in ELT, particularly within the context of Islamic education.
