Abstract

Humor practices have been approached using different theories. Some of the humor is universal, but it will be different when the cultural nuance interplays with it. This study aims to analyze the construction of humor in the Knock-Knock Jokes tweets on the comment section of an Indonesian base account on X, which was formerly known as Twitter, named @englishfess_, and the contribution of cultural context in creating the humorous effect in the jokes.  This study used Raskin's Script-Based Semantic Theory of Humor (SSTH) to analyze the types of humor used in the data and Grice's Theory of Maxim to analyze the flouting of maxims in the creation of the jokes, as well as the cultural context theory. Using a qualitative research method, this study collected 20 data in the form of snapshots of X users' tweets in the comment section. It was found that the humor of the Knock-Knock Jokes tweets mostly comes from the use of incongruity types of humor, the flouting of the maxim of relation, and the cultural contexts. As the punchlines of the jokes frequently used certain Indonesian cultures, these Knock-Knock Jokes tweets have a unique humor, and may only be understood by those who have a similar cultural background to the tweeters of the joke.

Abstract

Abstract This paper offers a solution to Indonesia’s mission of investing EFL listening materials with character education in higher institutions. The character is seen as a dimension of content competence, namely attitude. Developed by using Content-Based Instruction approach, the alternative view is reflected through listening materials design to target strengthening moral values, principles, and attitudes. The framework argues that listening materials should accommodate the need to tailor materials for teaching, rather, than for assessment. It also responds to the ubiquity of English as a Lingua Franca. It argues that the investment of character education leads to learning targets that allow students to become concerned, informed, and involved in developing themselves as citizens, and to respond to 21st-century language competences, especially in the ability to embrace cross-cultural understanding and in the use of digital technology in classroom language learning. The proposed framework is offered as decisions made on the materials’ resources, method of development, activities, and assessment.   Abstrak Artikel ini menawarkan solusi terhadap misi Indonesia untuk berinvestasi pendidikan karakter di dalam materi ajar Listening untuk pembelajaran di pendidikan tinggi (universitas).
