Abstract

A name given to someone may represent his ethnic background. Therefore, it is likely used by most people in recognizing where someone comes from. This study is aimed at examining the possible correlation between children’s name given by their Sundanese parents with their ethnic background in maintaining the Sundanese language in local region in Bandung, the Capital city of West java. 17 Sundanese family are involved in this descriptive case study. Both parents, representing by 17 fathers and 17 mothers, originally come from different region in west java province and have resided in Bandung for more than a decade. The data, embracing the characteristic of survey, are gained from a set of questionnaires and semi -structured interview consisting of questions related to family’s background, the name given, as well as the reason that drives them giving the names. This study has revealed the current trend on naming tradition in Bandung in which there is a shift from Sundanese, to other language particularly Arabic. This may be happened because most of the participants in this study are Muslims. Hence, Arabic as the language of Islam predominantly influence the naming tradition in Sundanese family.

Abstract

This study reported four–week English bedtime story of Rara, a young English language learner from Indonesia. A case study approach was employed in this study. Fitri, Rara’s mother, was asked to read five different English stories to her on the basis of the period of four weeks regularly. These stories were given as media for children to have comprehensible input. The data were taken from daily journal written by the mother and a semi-structure interview in which was then analyzed and interpreted. The result showed that the child was able to follow the storylines and was able to comprehend them. The story also helped the child acquiring some English vocabularies and fixed utterances naturally. Hence, English bedtime story program can be considered as an alternative way in introducing English to EFL young learners.

Abstract

Arguably, second language acquisition has always been an interesting topic to discuss, proven by many existing theories that play an essential role and contribute to this field's advancement and proliferation. Among many are Processability Theory (PT), a prominent theory of L2 development and processing theory that predicts well-ordered, cross-linguistically valid stages in second language acquisition and provides language-specific predictions covering developmental and variational stages dimensions (Pienemann, 1998, 2005, 2015). It accounts for explicit prediction of the language elements in which L2 learners learn to process different morphological and syntactical structures productively regardless of their backgrounds.

Abstract

The study intends to see the interlanguage morphological structure observed in communicative tasks of ten Indonesian learners of English as a Foreign Language.  To achieve this purpose, Qualitative method with quantified data is employed in this study embracing the cross-sectional approach. The data are taken from the utterances produced by 10 (ten) L2 learners who performed three different communicative tasks; semi-structure interviews, 5 picture descriptions, 2 spot differences. The researcher found 356 English morphological structures produced by the learners, and 66 of them are analysed as data samples the analysis is started by profiling their morphological acquisition. It helps the researcher to provide a vivid picture of their English morphological development stage. After analysing the data, the result shows that the English morphological structures produced by the L2 learners in this study are divided into three types:  Suppliance, non - suppliance and over – suppliance structures. Suppliance structure refers to structure that is received by grammatical rules in standard English. Meanwhile, the other two types of structure refer to idiosyncratic structures as an innate characteristic of interlanguage morphology. Besides, English morphological development stage is compatible with the Processability Theory (PT). The learners who have acquired higher morphological structure also have already acquired lower morphological structure.
