Abstract

The proliferation of the English language has resulted in the blending of the English language and culture into the national and indigenous languages of emerging countries, including Indonesia. Although most people in North Aceh, Indonesia, are Acehnese, some restaurants and coffee shops are named in English. This study explores how English acculturation in the naming of food and coffee shops affects the visibility and preservation of local languages in this area. Using Berrys acculturation framework, the research categorizes naming practices into assimilation, integration, and isolation, analyzing how English, Indonesian, and Acehnese elements are blended or separated in commercial branding. Data were gathered through interviews with business owners and customers, as well as observations of shop names and menus. The findings reveal that assimilation is the most dominant strategy, reflecting a preference for English-language branding as a symbol of modernity and prestige, particularly among younger entrepreneurs. However, some businesses still adopt integrated or local naming conventions to retain cultural identity. These practices have sociolinguistic implications, as the increased dominance of English may marginalize the Acehnese language in public spaces. The study calls for culturally responsive language planning to ensure a balance between global appeal and local heritage in commercial language use.

Abstract

This study examining language as a complex field of power, rather than merely a neutral means of communication. Every form of language use—whether words, dialects, or accents—contains political, historical, and social connotations that reflect and reinforce power hierarchies. In the era of globalization, the dominance of hegemonic languages such as English, as well as national languages such as Indonesian, has led to the marginalization of minority languages, affecting group identities and shifting cultural landscapes. Using a qualitative approach, this study explores the hidden meanings behind language practices and uncovers the power relations involved. Pierre Bourdieu's theory of symbolic power is used to understand language as a form of social capital that has symbolic value in the structure of society. The analysis compares the context of English hegemony globally and in Indonesia, as well as the position of Indonesian and regional languages in the national sphere. The findings highlight the importance of an additive multilingualism approach in language policy to ensure social justice and equitable distributed linguistic capital. Thus, language is posited not merely as a tool of communication but as a crucial instrument of power in social dynamics. Abstrak Penelitian ini mengkaji bahasa sebagai ranah kekuasaan yang kompleks, bukannya sekadar alat komunikasi netral. Setiap bentuk penggunaan bahasa—baik kata-kata, dialek, maupun aksen—mengandung konotasi politik, historis, dan sosial yang mencerminkan dan memperkuat hierarki kekuasaan. Di era globalisasi sekarang ini, dominasi bahasa-bahasa hegemonik seperti Bahasa Inggris, serta bahasa nasional seperti Indonesia, telah menyebabkan marginalisasi bahasa-bahasa minoritas, yang berdampak pada identitas kelompok dan mengubah lanskap budaya. Dengan pendekatan kualitatif, penelitian ini mengeksplorasi makna tersembunyi di balik praktik bahasa dan mengungkap hubungan kekuasaan yang terlibat. Teori "symbolic power" Pierre Bourdieu digunakan untuk memahami bahasa sebagai bentuk modal sosial yang memiliki nilai simbolik dalam struktur masyarakat. Analisis membandingkan konteks hegemoni bahasa Inggris secara global dan di Indonesia, serta posisi bahasa Indonesia dan bahasa daerah dalam lingkup nasional. Temuan studi ini menyoroti pentingnya pendekatan multilingualisme aditif dalam kebijakan bahasa untuk memastikan keadilan sosial dan distribusi modal linguistik yang merata. Dengan demikian, bahasa tidak hanya dipandang sebagai alat komunikasi, tetapi juga sebagai instrumen kekuasaan yang krusial dalam dinamika sosial.

Abstract

Discrimination and racism have been obvious for decades. This encompasses derogatory racial epithets such as "nigger, niggers, n-words". The objective of this study was to employ corpus-based analysis in order to examine the frequency of racial derogatory expressions across various genres of literature. The COCA (Corpus of Contemporary American English) data were employed to perform a corpus-based linguistic analysis of the terms 'nigger', 'niggers', and 'n-word' over a span of 20 years (1990 to 2019).  Although the words "niggers" and "n-word" have similar meanings, the occurrence of the word "niggers" and "n-word" in the corpora was significantly less frequent compared to the word "nigger." Primarily, the term "niggers" was used as a plural indicator for the derogatory term "nigger". The frequency with which individuals who use derogatory language, such as the term "niggers," associate themselves with pronouns like "they," "us," "those," "all of you," etc., suggests the existence of these patterns. The sole term that displays a notably diverse frequency distribution across genres is the n-word (in comparison to these two terms).

Abstract

In communication, speaking acts as a productive skill that allows a person to convey ideas and meanings through voice articulation. In the context of English learning, it is important to find method/approach/technique that can stimulate students' interest in practicing speaking skills. Script from a movie offers advantages in improving speaking skills as they are able to capture students' attention and stimulate their curiosity. The aim of this paper is to assess the impact of employing movie scripts in the classroom to enhance students' speaking abilities. Fifty-eight English department students from a State Islamic University in Aceh participated in the study. They were divided into two groups: control (NUMS-None of Using Movie Script) and experimental (UMS-Using Movie Script). Prior to and subsequent to the treatment, they were screened. The students in the experimental group were assigned a task to create a video recording in groups of five characters from a movie at the conclusion of each meeting. They were also provided with a movie script and interactive instruction by the teachers. The results of the study suggest that there was a substantial difference between the pre-test and post-test. The mean difference of both post-tests was 65.9310 for the experimental group and 55.5862 for the control group. As the result, students' speaking ability improved after they learned how to use movie scripts properly, which enabled them to gain confidence, overcome the challenge of memorizing the script, easily organize ideas, and enrich their vocabulary stock. Accordingly, the mean score of the pre-test increased more than that of the post-test.
