Abstract

This study investigates the sociolinguistic landscape of “The King’s Man,” a World War I spy action film, using Martin Joos’ five-point framework and Janet Holmes’ concept of social factors. It uncovers a variety of language styles, each tailored to the characters’ social context and communicative objectives. These include the solemn and authoritative frozen style (3 instances), the deliberative style for conveying instructions and asserting authority (24 instances), the consultative style in advice and justification exchanges (20 instances), the casual style in informal conversations (12 instances), and the intimate style in emotionally charged moments (5 instances). The study emphasizes the significant role of social factors in language choices, with characters using language to navigate social hierarchies, express emotions, and influence events. It highlights the complex interplay between language and social contexts in the film, offering deeper insight into characters’ inner worlds, social dynamics, and the film’s impact on the audience, ultimately revealing the interconnectedness of language, society, and storytelling in cinema.

Abstract

The aim of this research are to make a real contribution to the field of semantic studies by providing a deeper understanding of how meaning is constructed through language styles in Sunday school children's song lyrics. This research was delimited to seven Sunday School children's songs. Tarigan's (2009) theory with four language style groups, namely comparative language style, conflicting language style, linking language style and repetition language style, was used to analyze language style. Meanwhile, the theory from Mansore Pateda (2001) is used to analyze meaning, namely, lexical meaning, grammatical meaning, contextual meaning, referential meaning, denotative meaning, connotative meaning and cognitive meaning. In conducting this research the researcher used a qualitative descriptive method. Data collection was carried out through watching YouTube videos and recording song lyrics. The steps of Miles and Huberman (1994) were used to determine the results of data analysis, namely data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions. The research results found that there were 40 language styles which were classified into 13 types of language styles, namely Comparative language styles: Pleonasm, Metaphor, Personification, Antithesis; Conflicting Styles: Hyperbole, apostrophe; Connecting language styles: Parallelism, Asyndeton; Repetitive language styles: Alliteration, Tautotes, Anaphora, Assonance, Epizeuksis. And 21 data of meanings wich are classified in 2 types of meaning, namely Connotative Meaning and Denotative Meaning. The results of the research are expected to be useful for readers as a reference for understanding more deeply how language styles communicate meaning and can help create an interesting and effective curriculum. This can enrich academic literature on the semantic analysis of religious texts.

Abstract

This study delves into Sylvia Plath's "The Bell Jar," focusing on the protagonist Esther Greenwood's nuanced portrayal of mental illness. Through a qualitative approach, the research explores Esther's psychological journey, examining her struggles and resilience in the face of mental health challenges. The study employs various literary analysis techniques to dissect and interpret the novel's content, with the primary data source being Plath's prose itself. This approach provides a broader context and theoretical framework for understanding the novel's themes, blending literary analysis with psychological and sociological perspectives. The study pays particular attention to the depiction of 1950s psychiatric treatments, critically examining their inadequacies and limitations. Special focus is given to the portrayal of electroconvulsive therapy, a controversial treatment that plays a significant role in Esther's experiences. Findings underscore the critical importance of empathetic care and robust societal support in addressing mental health challenges. By delving into Esther's experiences, the research illuminates the profound impact of understanding, compassion, and appropriate treatment on individuals struggling with mental illness. Furthermore, this analysis reveals how Plath's work continues to resonate with contemporary readers, touching on timeless themes of identity, societal expectations, and the human psyche. The study argues that "The Bell Jar" serves as a poignant exploration of mental illness and a critique of societal norms and mental health treatment in mid-20th century America. This interdisciplinary approach appeals to a broad scholarly audience interested in literature, mental health, and social history, offering insights that bridge multiple fields of study.

Abstract

Language in animated films serves not only as a medium for storytelling but also as a reflection of pragmatic norms that govern social interaction. Although politeness strategies have been widely studied in natural discourse, there remains a notable gap in understanding how violations of these norms are embedded within cinematic dialogues, especially in films intended for all age groups. This study investigates the violation of politeness maxims proposed by Geoffrey Leech, including the Tact, Generosity, Approbation, Modesty, Agreement, and Sympathy maxims, as portrayed in the interactions involving Judy Hopps, the main character in Disney's Zootopia. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive method, the research analyzes selected utterances from the movie transcript and audiovisual scenes, focusing on the types of maxims violated and the emotional responses elicited. The results indicate that all six maxims are violated by supporting characters, with the Approbation Maxim emerging as the most frequently violated, comprising 44.4 percent of cases. These violations often lead to emotional consequences for the main character such as frustration, disappointment, and a sense of exclusion. This study contributes to the field of pragmatics by highlighting how impoliteness is constructed and perceived in fictional dialogues, providing new insights into language use in media contexts. Furthermore, it emphasizes the potential of animated films as valuable resources for teaching pragmatic awareness and promoting respectful communication. By critically examining how politeness is portrayed and breached, the study calls attention to the broader implications of media discourse in shaping audience perceptions of social interaction and linguistic behavior.

Abstract

The Sun Also Rises, written by Ernest Hemingway in 1926, is an influential literary work that depicts the post-war Lost Generation. The novel captures the profound sense of disillusionment experienced by individuals from the Lost Generation coping with the collapse of traditional values. The present study aims at analyzing the disillusionment depicted by the character of Jake Barnes in Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises and its implication on English language learning. This qualitative research is conducted by using Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises as the primary data and is supported by secondary data in the form of academic papers, research papers, and books related to the topic of disillusionment in literary works. To collect data, the researchers employed the observation and note-taking technique in which the researcher read the novel several times and took notes related to the topic of disillusionment. The obtained data were analyzed using an objective approach focusing on character development, narrative structure, and symbolic elements. The findings show that Jake Barnes, the protagonist in The Sun Also Rises, experiences the disillusionment in the form of disappointment caused by the aftermath of World War I. He shows his disappointment towards himself and the other character in the novel, as shown in the dialogues and descriptions in the novel. The study suggests that The Sun Also Rises can be utilized for English language learning in which both students and teachers can benefit by the use of the novel as a learning media, learning sources and learning object.

Abstract

There is close connection between language and cognition, in which cognition helps human to acquire language and learn a new language. This present study is conducted to explain the relationship between language and cognition, specifically on the aspects of cognition. This study is also conducted to investigate the implication of the connection between language and cognition on English Language Teaching. This study is a qualitative study with library research method, in which the data sources are the relevant literature such as books, academic papers, and articles from academic journals. Data collection is conducted by collecting and sorting the relevant sources and literature from online database: Scopus, Google Scholar and Sinta. The data obtained are analyzed systematically using the content analysis technique in which the relevant data are quoted to support the core idea of this study. The findings show that there is a close connection between language and cognition, especially how language is closely related to the aspects of cognition. The cognition and its aspects help human in acquiring a language, using the language and evaluating the use of the language. The same also goes to acquiring English as a second or foreign language. It means that there are several implications of the connection of language and cognition toward English Language Teaching (ELT): (1) English language teaching should consider learners' cognition; 2) English language teaching process must be able to attract students' attention; 3) English language teaching must involve memory, reasoning and thinking processes; and 4) English teaching should help students to improve their speaking skills as the observable aspects of cognition.
