Abstract

This study proposes a procedural analysis on the implementation of ludic linguistics to analyze gaming language with wordplays, the core of focus in ludic linguistics, as the point of departure. To formulate the procedural analysis, theories of language play by Crystal ideology of influence and ludonarrative model by Aarseth, wordplay in gaming context by Paul, intended meaning level by Stiles, wordplay transmission by Winter-Froemel, game interface types by Stonehouse and indexical storytelling by Fernández-Vara were applied as the theoretical foundation. To provide a vivid application of the proposed procedural analysis, wordplays appearing on game assets from Konami’s Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater were taken as examples of analysis. The five steps procedure is able to show how wordplays in gaming context are designed as mechanical cues to help gamers complete the games and as narrative cues to help them comprehend the story. Further, this proposed procedure is able to indicate that the mechanical and narrative cues have particular ideology of influence, which affects gamers in reacting and responding to particular problems presented by the games. The result of this study discloses future research on the roles of wordplays in gaming context, signifying the importance of ludic linguistics as a bridge between language studies and game studies. Keywords: Wordplay; Gaming Language; Ludic Linguistics; Game Dtudies; Metal Gear Solid

Defamation is committed by conveying speech in the form of a series of words or sentences by accusing a person of certain actions, which are aimed at honor and good name so that it can result in the person's dignity or dignity being humiliated or degraded. This research aims to examine Amber Heard's statements for defaming Johnny Depp. The data analyzed are Amber Heard's several statements that indicates false and defamatory (primary data) and also her testimony during the trial as supporting data (secondary data). The primary data was collected and observed through the articles op-ed which written by Amber Heard in Washington Post and the secondary data was collected through the trial transcript. This study uses a qualitative research method that describes data to determine the elements that can defame a person based on forensic linguistic studies. By using this study, the data that has been selected was analyzed using lexical semantics, pragmatics (speech acts), and linked to legislation based on Virginia Law. The researchers found three statements that proved to be defamatory and acted with obvious malice that have damaged Johnny Depp's reputation. The findings of this study have significant implications, showing that defamatory statements can have a profound and lasting impact on an individual's reputation and public perception, emphasizing the importance of the law in protecting and addressing such acts.

Abstract

The novel Ronggeng Dukuh Paruk and the short story Surabanglus are two works by Ahmad Tohari (AT) that talk about food and how food becomes the identity of a society. RDP tells the story of how Srintil, the Ronggeng Dukuh Paruk, loses her parents due to a massive poisoning in her village caused by tempeh bongrek made by her parents. With very little knowledge of toxicology, the people of Dukuh Paruk "treat" the tempeh poisoning with empirical experience passed down from their ancestors. While Surabanglus tells the story of the friendship between Kimin and Suing which is so touching because Suing had to experience the bad luck of eating poisonous cassava due to unbearable hunger. This research is descriptive and qualitative and uses textual analysis to reveal and interpret the hidden construction in a text. The data collected is analyzed from a gastro-critical lens. Gastro-criticism is part of a critical approach to welcome the phenomenon of culinary literature in literary works. Culinary is chosen as one of the symbols, myths, and signs in the development of literary works. From the data contained in the novel RDP and short story Surabanglus in the form of narrative quotations, and dialog between characters in AT's two works, there are four findings, namely; food and its characteristics, food and socioeconomic status, food and food processing tools, food and medicine. Through these two works, AT not only presents a story with food as the plot, but at the same time, Tohari documents what and how food in a society becomes a symbol and social identity of the community.

Abstract

The advance in artificial intelligence (AI) are significantly influencing various fields, including literature and creative writing. In Indonesia and the Philippines, AI is increasingly used to assist novice writers in creating fictional works. Employing a qualitative approach, the research utilizes data sources: fictional texts created by learners (high school and college students) using AI; the learners' perceptions of their creative process. The findings shows that the majority of submitted work was of good quality (65%), with 30% rated as "excellent." High-quality work contained little AI-generated content (maximum 12.3%), reflecting a strong personal contribution from the authors. Despite limited prior experience in narrative writing (87%), AI tools played a significant role in improving students' narrative skills, as evidenced by the assessed quality of their work. While nearly half of students found AI useful for improving expression (44%) and generating ideas (30%), most (86%) doubted its ability to make writing more enjoyable, and many (69%) expressed concerns about overreliance and a loss of originality. The findings highlight the importance of structured pedagogical guidance to help students leverage AI effectively while maintaining their unique voice and developing their narrative skills. The findings are expected to offer practical recommendations for educators, policymakers, and the writing community on ethically and effectively integrating AI in creative learning, particularly in Indonesia and Philippines.

Abstract

This study discusses the representation of controversial issues in memes that appeared during the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar, especially those related to human rights violations and the rejection of the LGBTQ community. The research uses a Critical Multimodal Discourse Analysis (CMDA) approach by combining the theory of representational meaning from Kress and van Leeuwen (2006) for the visual aspect and the theory of transitivity from Halliday (2014) within the framework of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) for the verbal aspect. Five memes were purposively selected from various social media platforms, (langsung saja ke sumber data) and analyzed using a descriptive qualitative method. The visual analysis shows the use of various types of representational processes, such as symbolic attributive, symbolic suggestive, transactional narrative, and non-transactional narrative, which express social criticism through symbols, gestures, and spatial arrangements. Meanwhile, the verbal analysis reveals that material, relational, and verbal processes are frequently used to construct meaning and deliver criticism explicitly. This study concludes that memes are not only a form of entertainment but also an effective communication tool to express social and political criticism in a creative and accessible way for global audiences.

Abstract

This study explores the influence of academic pressure on college students’ emotional well-being and academic performance, with particular attention to the role of negative emotions. Academic pressure often arises from multiple sources, including heavy academic workloads, high parental expectations, strong self-imposed expectations, and limited peer support. These pressures may create challenging learning conditions that affect students’ emotional states and their ability to perform academically. Drawing on students’ narratives as the primary data source, this study examines how academic pressure contributes to stress, anxiety, fear of failure, and tendencies toward social withdrawal. The study aims to examine seven key aspects related to academic pressure, including negative emotional experiences, sources of academic stress, and the relationships between parental expectations, self-expectations, workload demands, and peer support in shaping students’ stress levels. Participants were selected using proportional stratified random sampling to represent diverse student groups. The findings indicate that high parental expectations often encourage perfectionism and fear of failure, while high self-expectations are associated with feelings of inadequacy and frustration. Heavy workloads contribute to academic burnout, reflected in emotional exhaustion, and reduced motivation. Limited peer support further intensifies negative emotions and weakens students’ sense of belonging.
