Abstract

Abstract: This paper discusses the use of Socratic questioning method (SQM) to enhance students’ critical thinking capability. The method used in this research was descriptive – the method that describes a given state of affairs as fully and carefully as possible (Fraenkel, 1990:11). Twelve students of English Department S-1 Program sitting in the 4th semester participate in this research. This SQM is applied in learning process for the subject of Academic Presentation. Data were gathered through the two instruments, classroom observation and closed-ended questionnaires. The questionnaire consisted of ten items divided into six parts: understanding of SQM, critical thinking capabilities, application of SQM, effectiveness of SQM, perception of learning using SQM, and effects on critical thinking capability The results of the study indicate that: 1) the questions posed by the students are in level of analysis, 2) the contents of the questions posed cover identifying, relating, analyzing, and making inferences of the topics under discussion, and 3) the benefits of using SQM include provoking deep analysis, promoting critical thinking, making the one being asked think hard, maintaining learning motivation, and making students feel confident during the discussion sessions. The implementation of the Socratic Questioning Method (SQM) in the "Academic Presentation" course at Widyatama University has led to positive changes in students' learning experiences. SQM encourages students to engage in thoughtful dialogue, ask meaningful questions, and think critically. The findings suggest that SQM can enhance students' critical thinking abilities, foster deep analysis, and improve confidence and motivation in academic discussions.Key Words: Socratic Questioning Method (SQM), critical thinking, learning process

Abstract

Accomplishment in higher education recently depends on the ability to communicate effectively in English; due to increasingly globalized academic setting. This essay investigates the creative ways that speaking technology and cross-language exercises might be combined to improve students' proficiency in English communication. By utilizing students' current linguistic resources, cross-language practices, which entail the purposeful use of different languages, can promote deeper comprehension and retention of English language abilities. When combined with cutting-edge speaking technology, such AI-driven language learning tools and speech recognition software, these approaches provide a dynamic and engaging means of honing English communication skills. With a focus on practical application in academic and professional contexts, the study investigates the effects of these combined techniques on students' language proficiency. This research is a comparable passage that has been adjusted for the study's setting. The study involved 45 students from different academic disciplines, 60% of whom were female and 40% of whom were male, and used a sequential explanatory mixed-method approach to investigate their views and experiences about cross-language practices in combination with speaking technology. Surveys, pre- and post-speaking evaluations for descriptive analysis, and reflective notebooks for qualitative insights were all used in the data collection process. The study of descriptive data was done using theme analysis. As evidenced by the overwhelmingly favorable response from participants, the data showed that integrating student languages alongside English, backed by speaking technology, dramatically increased their English communication skills.

Abstract

This study explores the language styles used in the international diplomatic meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The objective of this research is to identify and classify the language styles employed during their meeting at the White House on February 28, 2025, published on the C-SPAN YouTube channel as well as to analyze the variations in language. The theories used in this study are Joos’s (1967) theory of language style and Holmes’s (2013) theory of sociolinguistic factors. Using a qualitative descriptive method, the researcher analyzed 29 utterances from diplomatic interactions, the result of the style of language style in their diplomatic meeting are frozen (20.7%), formal (27,6%), consultative (13,8%), casual (17,2%) and intimate (20,7%). The most dominat style in the international diplomatic meeting is formal. The study also highlights key sociolinguistic factors such as setting, participants, topic, and function that influence the choice of styles. These findings suggest that diplomatic language is both strategic and adaptive and is shaped by context, communicative purpose and audience. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of how political figures use language to manage perception, build rapport and reinforce diplomatic roles in international settings.

Abstract

This research conducts a pragmatic analysis of the flouting of the Maxim of Quality in the episode “Millennial Has to be Joking with This Question!” from the Steve Harvey Talk Show on the YouTube channel Steve TV Show. Pragmatic research that flouts the Maxim of Quality in the context of talk shows with millennial audiences or participants remains relatively rare. Several previous studies analyse violations of maxims in popular and more formal talk shows. However, it is not the same as on the Steve Harvey talk show, which highlights humour from flouting maxims across generations. Flouting of maxims is common in many television shows, which can certainly affect communication dynamics. This research uses Paul Grice’s Cooperative Principle and Attardo’s humour theory in the context of talk shows across generations. This research identifies and examines the actions in which Steve Harvey deliberately flouts the Maxim of Quality through strategies such as hyperbole, metaphor, irony, sarcasm, and banter. The analysis shows that hyperbole is the most commonly used strategy, followed by metaphor, banter, irony, and sarcasm. These strategies particularly serve to create humour, deliver criticism, and foster a sense of connection with the audience or build solidarity, with humour being the most significant function for this research. Thus, this study highlights how flouting the maxim of quality serves as a strategy for critical humour and can reflect social values and generational differences. Findings from research on flouting the maxim of quality and humour strategies can be used by various groups who need a deeper understanding of how to deliver messages effectively to cross-generational audiences.

Abstract

This research explores how fighters in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) use language in their press conferences and media appearances, with a focus on the styles and purposes of their verbal exchanges. Using a qualitative approach, the study looks at transcripts from UFC events between 2010 and 2025, especially the words of well-known fighters such as Conor McGregor, Nate Diaz and other Fighters. The analysis is based on Labov’s (1972) framework for storytelling, which includes parts like the abstract, orientation, complicating action, evaluation, resolution, and coda, as well as Jakobson’s (1960) ideas about the different functions of language. The research identifies three main ways fighters use language: confrontational, which involves direct insults and threats; humorous, which includes sarcasm and irony; and performative, which is more about making a dramatic or showy statement. Out of 20 data of UFC trash talk, the analysis revealed that fighters strategically employ various language styles to construct their public personas, intimidate opponents, and engage audiences. Regarding language style classification, the data shows a relatively balanced distribution across narrative categories. Orientation, Complicating Action, and Evaluation were the most frequently used styles, each (20%) of the analyzed data, abstract and Coda each accounted for (15%), resolution appeared least frequently with only (10%). This research contributes to to sociolinguistics, particularly in understanding how language is strategically used in sports media discourse. It highlights how trash talk functions as a context-dependent communicative practice shaped by social norms, performance, and interactional goals

Abstract

This study investigates the phenomenon of lexical ambiguity in the film Ford v Ferrari (2019) through the lens of semantics. Lexical ambiguity, which occurs when a single word have more than one meaning, plays a significant role in both everyday communication and cinematic dialogues. The research aims to identify the types of lexical ambiguity found in the movie and analyze the meanings conveyed through those ambiguities. This study employs a qualitative descriptive method. The data were collected through several techniques, including watching the movie repeatedly, transcribing selected dialogues, identifying ambiguous words or utterances, and note-taking. By applying the theories semantics from George Yule (2010), Hurford et al. (2007), and Leech (1981). The data analysis technique involves classifying the ambiguous expressions into types of lexical ambiguity (polysemy and homonymy) and interpreting their meanings based on contextual usage, particularly affective and connotative meanings. To assure data validity, the researcher used theoretical triangulation, which involves comparing several semantic theories and rechecking the data to preserve consistency and accuracy. By highlighting how language ambiguity functions within the film's context, this study contributes to the broader understanding of semantics in audiovisual media and underlines the significance of interpreting meaning in cinematic discourse.

Abstract

This study analyzes the use of slang in the film Deadpool (2016) from a sociolinguistic perspective, focusing on how informal language portrays character identity and social meaning. The purpose of this study is to identify the different types of slang used by Wade Wilson (Deadpool) and examine how these slang functions sociolinguistically in the film's dialogue. A qualitative descriptive method is applied using the film and its official transcripts as the primary data sources. A total of nine slang expressions spoken by the main character were collected through documentation and note-taking techniques, selected based on the criteria of containing standard, community, taboo, fresh and creative, acronym, and borrowed slang elements relevant to sociolinguistic analysis. The data were validated through triangulation of theory to ensure accuracy in classification and interpretation. The results show that Deadpool often uses innovative and inappropriate expressions to convey comedy, sarcasm, and emotional intensity, thus reinforcing his rebellious and humorous persona. This study demonstrates that slang in audiovisual media functions as a sociolinguistic phenomenon, fostering character development and narrative engagement, and reflecting group identity and social dynamics. By providing insight into the relationship between informal language and sociocultural expressions in popular media, this study contributes to sociolinguistic studies and offers a reference for further research on sociolinguistics.

Abstract

The article explores the sociolinguistic aspects as part of the linguistic landscape analysis of the hotel names in Bandung City, Indonesia. The researchers limited the research data, focusing only on 4- and 5-star hotels. Employing Landry and Bourhis’s (1997) LLS theory, the paper analysed 61 names of 4-star hotels and 13 names of 5-star hotels in Bandung city, which were collected by the Botsol Crawler application. Observation, interviews, and a literature review were also conducted to obtain the data for a more comprehensive analysis. The research results show that English dominated the appearance of Hotel names, both monolingual, bilingual, and multilingual. The research results indicate that the information function found in the data mainly refers to the owner or management agency and the location of the hotels. Meanwhile, the symbolic functions mainly refer to symbols of preservation values of colonialism, Sundanese culture, and modernity. These findings appear to suggest that the regulation mandating the use of the Indonesian language or local language in public spaces is being violated. Recommendations and implications for the government and further research are also discussed. Abstrak Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis aspek sosiolinguistik di balik nama-nama hotel di Kota Bandung, Indonesia, dengan menggunakan pendekatan linguistik lanskap. Data penelitian dibatasi hanya berfokus pada teks nama hotel bintang empat dan lima di kota Bandung. Dengan menggunakan teori linguistik lanskap yang diusung oleh Landry and Bourhis (1997), artikel ini menganalisis nama-nama hotel yang terdiri atas 61 nama hotel bintang empat dan 13 nama hotel bintang lima di kota Bandung, yang dikumpulkan dengan menggunakan aplikasi Botsol Crawler. Guna menghasilkan analisis yang komprehensif, penelitian kualitatif dilakukan dengan pendekatan wawancara, observasi, dan studi pustaka. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan Bahasa Inggris menjadi Bahasa yang paling dominan muncul dan digunakan dalam nama-nama hotel, baik berbentuk monolingual, bilingual, atau multilingual. Selain itu, penelitian ini juga mengungkap bahwa fungsi informasi yang muncul pada nama-nama hotel di Bandung paling banyak merepresentasikan nama pemilik atau manajemen hotel dan lokasi hotel. Sementara untuk fungsi simbolik didominasi oleh preservasi warisan kolonial, budaya sunda, dan modernitas. Penelitian ini juga menemukan bahwa aturan penggunaan Bahasa Indonesia atau Bahasa daerah di kawasan publik belum benar-benar dipatuhi. Melalui penelitian ini, implikasi penelitian dan rekomendasi bagi pemerintah daerah juga turut didiskusikan.

Abstract

This study explored the impact of morphosyntactic features on AI-generated text, focusing on how morphological complexity and syntactic structure influence large language model (LLM) performance in terms of response quality, coherence, and processing efficiency. A mixed-methods design was adopted, combining quantitative computational evaluation with qualitative linguistic analysis. Experimental procedures involved constructing 60 prompts with controlled variations in morphological complexity (simple vs. complex derivational forms, e.g., nationalization, reindustrialization) and syntactic structure (single-clause, multi-clause, and compound-complex sentences). Each prompt was submitted to three state-of-the-art LLMs under identical conditions (temperature = 0.7, top-p = 0.9, max tokens = 512). Outputs were assessed using automated metrics (BLEU, ROUGE-L, perplexity) and human-rated coherence scores from three trained linguists, with inter-rater reliability measured by Cronbach’s alpha (≥ 0.80). Statistical analysis employed two-way ANOVA with post-hoc Tukey HSD tests, reporting effect sizes (η²) and using α = 0.05. Results showed that morphologically complex prompts generated 27% more contextually rich responses, with average processing times 34% longer and perplexity scores 35% higher than simpler inputs. Complex multi-clause prompts achieved coherence scores 18% higher than single-clause prompts, while compound-complex structures produced the most accurate outputs but required 38% more processing time and 21% more computational resources. Prompts combining both morphological and syntactic complexity yielded the highest quality (coherence scores 25% above mean) but also the highest computational cost, reflecting increased cognitive load. Prompts that combined both complex morphological and syntactic elements demonstrated the highest overall quality, with coherence scores 25% above average, but also the greatest computational demand, reflecting the cognitive load required for deep linguistic processing. These findings underscore the importance of carefully balancing morphological and syntactic complexity in prompt design, depending on the specific goals of the application.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of digital platforms has positioned online hotel reviews as influential forms of user-generated discourse that shape public perceptions of service quality. Against this background, the present study examines how reviewers linguistically construct stance and evaluative meanings in digital hospitality communication. The analysis draws on Stance Theory (Hyland, 2021), Appraisal Theory (Martin & White, 2021), and corpus pragmatics to provide a comprehensive framework for understanding evaluative language. Methodologically, the study employs a mixed-method corpus approach, analyzing more than 17,000 English-language hotel reviews through computational tools, lexical extraction, collocation analysis, and manual annotation of Attitude, Engagement, and Graduation resources. The results show clear distinctions between positive and negative reviews. Positive reviews predominantly use Appreciation and affective stance markers such as clean, friendly, and comfortable, reflecting satisfaction with amenities and overall experience. In contrast, negative reviews contain higher frequencies of Judgment and intensified Graduation markers, including rude, unprofessional, and extremely disappointed, often accompanied by epistemic justifications and narrative complaint structures. Engagement resources further reveal how reviewers align with wider consumer voices to strengthen credibility. Overall, the study concludes that online hotel reviews function as persuasive interpersonal acts shaped by emotional, rhetorical, and cultural factors, offering new insights for applied linguistics and digital media-based hospitality communication.
