Abstract

Abstract. Learning strategies in the Japanese language for young learners tend to be applied to children in Japanese mixed-married families or foreign children in Japan. However, this study tried to apply a learning strategy for a young learner who does not have a background in the Japanese environment or experience with Japanese people and culture. This study aims to describe a learning strategy by applying mnemonics to young learners in Japanese language acquisition, particularly in the Japanese character Hiragana. This research used qualitative descriptive design, with research instruments that include researchers, observation forms, and literature sources. The data collected in this study were analyzed using an interpretive approach. This study used a mnemonics-based digital tool application was used to assist the young learner in learning the Japanese character, Hiragana. This study shows that mnemonics can improve young learners' Hiragana acquisition. Learning strategy by applying mnemonics helps the young learner memorize each character and improves associative skills and Japanese vocabulary as a language acquisition process. Some characters are similar and confusing for beginners, and some Japanese characters do not exist in Indonesian, which makes it difficult for learners to pronounce them. The application greatly helps the subject memorize each character and improves associative skills and Japanese vocabulary as a language acquisition process. Through continuous reading practice, the subject can distinguish almost similar characters and help pronounce vocabulary. This application is very effective for parents who want to introduce Hiragana characters to young learners, with intensive reading practice and creating an environment that uses Hiragana.Keywords: learning strategy, mnemonics, Hiragana, young learner, language acquisition

Abstract

Numerous studies have primarily focused on investigating the linguistic structures of academic writing, such as theses, dissertations, and articles from reputable journals authored by individuals ranging from novices to experts. However, few studies have examined the linguistic structures of texts written by AI, particularly those produced by ChatGPT. This study aims to analyze the lexical bundle structure and function variations of 10 argumentative essays generated by ChatGPT, which were composed based on prompts provided by advanced learners in Indonesia, specifically graduate students of applied linguistics from Yogyakarta University. The objective is to explore the lexical bundle structure and function of ChatGPT-generated essays to understand how the AI employs various linguistic forms and constructs relationships between sentences. For data collection, this study utilized the corpus tool AntConc's N-gram feature to refine the four-word lexical bundles from the collected essays. The analysis used the frameworks of Hyland (2008b) and Biber et al. (1999). The result showed the Noun Phrase + pattern as the most frequent lexical bundle structure found in ChatGPT-generated essays. This structure has been used primarily to assert ideas and positions on the discussed topics (Stance Features), marking that ChatGPT has a strong ability in presenting and elaborating ideas. However, the least frequently found lexical bundle function is text construction that can link one idea to others to create the connection. Therefore, this study suggested that ChatGPT-generated essays can assist in effectively conveying the writer's perspectives but need attention or development in creating cohesive links between ideas in written discourse.
