Abstract

Many students struggle to identify pronouns in sentences, a critical aspect of English grammar necessary for constructing clear and coherent communication. Pronouns play a vital role in sentence structure by replacing nouns to avoid redundancy, yet their correct usage poses challenges for learners. This study investigates the proficiency of tenth-grade students at SMA Swasta Cerdas Bangsa in identifying pronouns in English sentences and explores the specific difficulties they face. The research aimed to evaluate students' ability to recognize different types of pronouns and pinpoint areas requiring instructional support. Adopting a case study methodology, the study collected data from 30 students in class X.1 through a 30-item test consisting of multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank questions. Results showed that only 41% of the students correctly identified pronouns, with common challenges including confusion in pronoun selection and insufficient understanding of pronoun usage. These findings highlight the need for targeted teaching strategies, such as explicit grammar instruction and contextualized exercises, to enhance students' grammatical competence and overall language proficiency.

Abstract

This study examines the role of digital linguistics—emoji use, code-switching, and hashtags—in shaping employee engagement within a private logistics company in Medan, Indonesia. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with employees actively engaged in internal digital communication, and were analyzed thematically. Findings indicate that emojis help soften messages, reduce tension, and foster warmth in workplace interactions. Code-switching between Indonesian, English, and local dialects functions as a social adaptation strategy and professional identity marker. Hashtags, though less frequent, act as symbolic tools for uniting teams, reinforcing collective identity, and emphasizing project goals. Together, these practices enrich digital communication and support the dimensions of vigor, dedication, and absorption in employee engagement. Grounded in Social Exchange Theory (SET) and Media Richness Theory (MRT), this research underscores digital linguistics as a strategic HRM tool for enhancing engagement, while highlighting organizational reputation and governance as crucial supporting factors.
