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 New York Times is USA’s most popular digital news platform which can be accessed easier by people around the world. Due to many new words that can be combined to become compound words, it is interesting to see the compound words that are applied on the New York Times website. This study looked at the different the types and meanings of compound words used in the New York Times articles. The study describes the types of compound words with the theory proposed by Katamba (1993). Then, to analyze the meanings of compound words, the theory by Palmer (1991) was used. To achieve the objectives, descriptive qualitative methods were used in the study. The data were taken from the New York Times website. In collecting data, the documentation method with note-taking techniques was applied. From 58 data collected, the results showed that compound nouns become the most common types of compound words used in the articles with 33 compound words, followed by compound verbs with 13 compound words, and compound adjectives with 12 compound words. Referring to the meaning of compound words, there are 34 compound words with opaque meanings and 24 compound words with transparent meanings.

Abstract

The Balinese language is the mother tongue that is used by the people who live in Bali for daily communication and social interaction. Currently, the Balinese language just like many other mother tongue languages in Indonesia is in the process of being abandoned by the younger generation for many reasons for instance it is because there are limited resources available on the Internet.  Semantic ontology has been chosen as the backbone of this system due to minimising the ambiguity of the translation using the keyword-based query.  The development utilises the prototyping system development approach by focusing on the involvement of the user at every stage of development.  The system has three main features namely semantic browsing, semantic searching, and antonym searching.  We carried out two types of evaluation (functional and non-functional) by involving 30 participants and the results show users perceive the usefulness and ease of use to be positive

Abstract

This paper discusses the power of bhuta in the lontar (palm leaf) manuscript of Roga Sanghara Bhumi (RSB), in the context of Covid-19 in Bali, from an ethnolinguistic perspective. The RSB manuscript is a treasure documenting local knowledge reflecting Balinese Hindu culture about the existence of bhuta as a negative force causing disease outbreaks. The linguistic aspects examined and discussed include the integration of various lexico-grammatical elements, textually and contextually related to power and pandemics. The study is qualitative descriptive; important findings include the use of ethnolinguistic capital and local Balinese-Hindu symbols related to the conception/role of bhuta's power and rituals practiced by the Balinese, and how the Balinese maintain the dynamic balance of the universe's harmony and well-being. Evidence of ethnolinguistic resources includes multi-lingual diglossic features of Old Javanese-Sanskrit-Balinese and local Balinese-Hindu symbols, including the Balinese script and evil force repellent rituals such as caru offerings. RSB's striking textual feature is the persuasive narrative in the imperative mood. This is closely related to the function of RSB as a reference of advice to deal with pandemics. Cultural contextual features in RSB describe the cosmology, description and explanation of the occurrences of various outbreaks (sasab, gering, mrana, grubug) and the role of butha and its handling. Analysis in the context of Covid-19 is also provided. This paper underscores the importance of using local-traditional wisdom approaches in pandemic management to complement modern ones. AbstrakMakalah ini mengkaji power (kekuasaan/kekuatan) bhuta dalam teks lontar Roga Sanghara Bhumi (RSB), terkait Covid-19 di Bali, dari perspektif etnolinguistik. Teks RSB merefleksikan khazanah budaya Hindu-Bali terkait dengan keberadaan bhuta sebagai kekuatan negatif penyebab wabah penyakit. Aspek kebahasaan yang diperiksa dan dibahas mencakup integrasi berbagai elemen lexico-grammar kekuasaan/kekuatan, secara tekstual dan kontekstual terkait dengan pandemi. Kajiannya bersifat deskriptif kualitatif, menunjukkan temuan penting diantaranya penggunaan sumber daya etnolinguistik (ethno-linguistic capital) dan simbol-simbol lokal Bali-Hindu terkait konsepsi/peran power bhuta dan praktik-praktik ritual, serta dinamikanya untuk menjaga keseimbangan kerahayuan alam semesta. Bukti-bukti sumber daya etnolinguitik mencakup fitur diglosik multi/dwibahasa Jawakuna-Sanskerta-Bali dan simbol-simbol lokal Bali-Hindu termasuk aksara Bali dan ritual penolak kekuatan jahat seperti sesaji caru. Fitur tekstual RSB yang mencolok adalah naratif persuasif bermodus imperatif; ini terkait erat dengan fungsi RSB sebagai sumber petujuk/acuan untuk menghadapi pandemi. Fitur kontekstual kultural menggambarkan kosmologi, deskripsi dan penjelasan terjadinya berbagai wabah (sasab, gering, mrana, grubug) dan peran butha serta penanganannya. Analisisnya dalam konteks Covid-19 juga diberikan. Makalah ini menggarisbawahi pentingnya penggunaan pendekatan kearifan lokal-tradisional dalam penanganan pandemi untuk melengkapi pendekatan modern.
