Abstract

Vocabulary plays a fundamental role in English language acquisition as it supports the development of language skills. Vocabulary mastery can be developed by optimizing the use of interactive media such as flashcards which offer an effective and engaging activity in teaching vocabulary, especially for young learners. This study was carried out to explore the barriers faced by an English teacher in using interactive flashcards in an elementary school in Ciamis and how the teacher overcomes the barriers found. This study used a qualitative case study and was taken through classroom observation and semi-structured interviews as research instruments. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the data from the classroom observation and interviews. The research participants involved in this study were a second grade English teacher. The findings revealed three main challenges: (1) students' limited reading and writing skills; (2) difficulty in time management due to varying student response times and lack of time management features in the flashcard application; and (3) different levels of vocabulary mastery among students, which affected the overall effectiveness of teaching. To overcome these challenges, the teacher implemented various adaptive strategies such as verbal repetition, adjusted time allocation, and differentiated teaching based on the needs of each student. This study highlights the importance of teacher adaptability to ensure the effective use of interactive media in teaching vocabulary.

Abstract

This study investigates the problematic issues surrounding the representation of idiomatic expressions in monolingual online dictionaries, with a particular focus on the Oxford Monolingual Online Learner’s Dictionary. Idiomatic expressions, which are characterized by non-literal meanings and fixed or semi-fixed lexical patterns, present unique challenges for lexicographers. Drawing from qualitative analysis, the study identifies three central problem areas: (1) stability versus instability of idiomatic forms, (2) multi-word complexity and lexical evolution, and (3) idiomaticity and transparency. Findings reveal that idioms frequently appear in multiple lexical variants, complicating their classification and interpretation. Furthermore, many idioms evolve over time, leading to inconsistencies in dictionary entries and confusion among users. The degree of transparency of idioms also varies, with some being highly opaque and difficult to interpret without cultural or contextual knowledge. These issues highlight the limitations of traditional dictionary models in addressing the dynamic and figurative nature of idiomatic language. The study concludes by recommending a more phraseological and pattern-driven approach to lexicography, emphasizing the integration of idiom families, historical context, and usage-based explanations to better serve language learners and users. This research contributes to the field of lexicology and lexicography by offering practical insights for improving idiom representation in monolingual dictionaries.
