Abstract

The lexical decision task was used in this study to evaluate the cognitive processes of word processing in English Literature students. This study focuses into the distinctive characteristics of word processing in people who are proficient in English literature, specifically how their literary analytical abilities impact lexical judgment problems. The goal was to investigate how linguistic information gained via literary study affects word processing. The web-based PsyToolkit program was used to record response times and accuracy.  Ten English literature students took part in a web-based lexical judgment exercise that required them to differentiate between actual and non-words. The results show that reaction times differ between three stimulus categories: related words, unrelated words, and nonsense words. The findings of this study demonstrate that participants responded faster to related words, suggesting a beneficial impact of semantic connection. However, equal response times for unrelated and nonsense words imply similar categorization problems. These findings provide connection between semantic processing and lexical decision-making, highlighting the significance of semantic priming in word recognition.

Abstract

The rise of social media has significantly transformed public discourse. It allows individuals to engage in political discussions, express opinions, and challenge governmental narratives. Unlike traditional media, social media platforms facilitate interactive and participatory engagement. Users can respond to official statements in real time. This study examines user comments on Kompas Facebook post regarding the Indonesian government’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Analyzing the discourse within these comments, the research explores functions of social media as a platform for democratization, power resistance, two-way communication, and alternative discourse formation. This study employs qualitative content analysis and critical discourse analysis (CDA). It is used to categorize and interpret user comments. The data included diverse linguistic strategies such as support, criticism, sarcasm, rhetorical questions, and religious expressions. Those were systematically coded to identify emerging themes. The findings reveal that social media enables democratic participation. It is also characterized by polarization of discourse and performative engagement. The interaction between government narratives and user responses demonstrates that social media facilitates counter public discourse, ideological contestation, and user-driven political deliberation. The study concludes social media that serves as a dynamic space for political communication where institutional narratives are actively contested. However, the limited presence of constructive suggestions highlights the challenges of fostering substantive policy discussions in digital spaces. By bridging discourse analysis, media studies, and political communication, this research provides a novel contribution to understanding digital discourse dynamics in contemporary political engagement.

Abstract

This study explores person deixis whose context reflects a romantic relationship in the movie After. Person deixis is the use of personal pronouns usually used in a conversation. The purpose of this study is to explore the types of person deixis in the context of a romantic relationship using the Pragmatic theory proposed by Levinson (1983). Data were taken from the After movie and analyzed using documentation techniques and analyzed using descriptive qualitative methods. This study found three types of persons deixis: first person deixis, second person deixis and third person deixis. These findings indicate the importance of context in interpreting deixis and contribute to a deeper understanding of how language shapes and reflects the development of relationships in cinematic narratives.

Abstract

The study investigates the bilingual warning signs found along Kuta and Legian beaches in Bali, Indonesia. It is within the framework of linguistic landscape (LL) analysis. The study aims to examine language policy—specifically the mandatory use of Indonesian language in public sign—interacts with the communicative needs of a globally diverse tourist population. Employing a qualitative research design, the study analyzed 33 bilingual signs through documentation and content analysis. It focuses on language positioning, institutional authorship, and semiotic features. Drawing on the theories of emplacement and indexicality by Scollon and Scollon (2003), the findings reveal a varied landscape. While some signs comply with national regulations by prioritizing Indonesian language, others, particularly those by private entities or tourism-sensitive authorities, prioritize English to accommodate international audiences. The study highlights the pragmatic tension between top-down language policies and bottom-up communicative practices in multilingual public spaces. It further illustrates that the visibility and hierarchy of languages on sign are influenced not only by legal frameworks, but also by spatial function and sociolinguistic context. These findings contribute to ongoing discussions in sociolinguistics, language policy, and semiotics. It shows bilingual public sign that serves as a site of negotiation between national identity and global communicability in tourism-driven environments.

Abstract

This study investigates language that constructs and legitimizes power relations in news discourse published on social media platforms during the covid-19 pandemic. Drawing on Fairclough’s (1995) critical discourse analysis framework, the research aims to reveal the ideological mechanisms embedded in linguistic choices used by state actors in shaping public perception. The study employs a qualitative method with data collected through documentation of news texts posted on Facebook. The news test was particularly concerning to government responses on the pandemic. The analysis involves textual examination, intertextuality mapping, and social semiotic interpretation. The findings reveal that government-affiliated discourse employs declarative structures, institutional deixis, and culturally embedded phrases such as gotong royong. It is to promote national unity, responsibility, and trust in leadership. The texts construct an authoritative narrative that normalizes state intervention and discourages dissent through moral appeals and symbolic alignment with cultural norms. Linguistic features are strategically used to legitimize top-down communication and to frame the state as both protector and moral guide. The study concludes that language in social media news discourse serves as an instrument of symbolic power that maintains ideological hegemony under the appearance of crisis communication and collective solidarity.

Abstract

Machine translation (MT) offers great assistantship when people have difficulties in understanding or comprehend text of their non-native language both in spoken and written language. One kind of machine translation is Google Translation that can be got on their hand just by using mobile phone. This machine can help people to translate the text from one language to another one, in short time. This study aims at finding out the translation procedures found in the translation product by Google Translation and analyzing the errors occurred in Google Translation product. The data of this study are in the form of written data taken from a bilingual children story book of archipelago legend, which consists of 100 lines. There is a source language text in Bahasa Indonesia which is translated into English by using Google translation. The texts are chosen as it contains several sentences that are constructed by paying attention on the rhyme of ending sounds. The data of this study were analyzed through qualitative method. The translation results were analyzed based on translation procedures proposed by Vinay and Dalbernet (1989). Based on the analysis, it can be concluded that translation procedures used by Google Translation found in the data source are borrowing, calque, literal, transposition, modulation, equivalence, and adaptation. The most dominant type of translation procedure is literal translation. It has the highest frequency data; with a total of 50 data (50 %). Some errors are found in the result of Google translation. They are the errors in the use of pronoun, the use of plural and singular noun and inconsistency in the translation of name. Those errors are caused by limitation of machine in detecting the context of the text. Thus, the translated text is incoherent.

Abstract

This study investigates the types of slang terms found in the movie Dope by classifying them based on their linguistic characteristics and communicative functions. Using Green’s (2002) Slang Theory, the research identifies and categorizes slang into five types: innovative, group-identifying, evasive, reactive, and playful slang. A qualitative descriptive method was applied, with data collected through documentation and analyzed by examining how each slang type is formed and used in context. The findings reveal that innovative slang was the most frequently used, illustrating the dynamic and creative nature of youth language. By focusing on linguistic structure and function rather than cultural context, this study provides insights into how slang operates as a form of informal communication within media. The analysis demonstrates that slang in Dope serves various linguistic purposes such as expressing identity, humor, secrecy, and emotional response, contributing to a broader understanding of informal language use in modern youth discourse.
