Abstract

Since the future of the world is English, many countries now include English in their primary education curriculum, so language proficiency can be achieved more quickly and effectively. As two or more languages knowledge are competing linguistically in the brain, the early introduction to English means putting the other languages known by the Indonesian English language learners in a competition. On the other hand, despite its controversy, bilingualism and multilingualism, when achieved fully and proportionally, is cognitively and socially beneficial. This article reviews the potential effects of including English early in the Indonesian curriculum and the recommendation for the Indonesian’s future multilingual education and research. The discussion resulted in some important conclusions. Firstly, considering the Indonesian-English far typological distance, learning English requires some time and cognitive effort. For Indonesian bilinguals/multilingual, this means early introduction to English means higher confidence in producing the language verbally later on. During this early learning of English, the Indonesian language (and any other ethnic language that forms the speaker’s identity should also be used simultaneously to create the same purpose; a sense of belonging towards and confidence in using the language(s). In short, multilingualism that includes foreign language instruction; national and minority language use and maintainance,  should be enhanced and normalised from childhood.

Abstract

This study assesses the effectiveness of using movies with English subtitles for teaching vocabulary. Experimental research refers to a method in which one explores variables for their causing effect through manipulation and observes the impact on another variable. The present study was conducted experimentally with SMPN 1 Peukan Bada grade VIII students. The study's sample consists of 57 students divided into two classes: one, VIII 5, as an experimental class in which the movies were shown with subtitles in English, and the other, VIII 7, as a control class where the movie was presented without subtitles. Data has been collected in the form of pre-and post-tests to measure the improvement in vocabulary acquisition by students. The average of pre-tests was 58 for the experimental and 56 for the control classes. It was observed that the experimental class had a steep increase in their vocabulary score as compared to the control class. The mean post-test score of the experimental class was 90 while the average of the control class climbed up to 76. Data were analyzed using both independent t-tests and paired t-tests to determine the significance of differences between the two groups by SPSS. The results of the statistical analysis indicated that there was indeed a significant difference between the two classes, with the p-value less than <0.001. Therefore, it would be proper to conclude that the use of English subtitles while watching movies effectively enhances vocabulary acquisition for students.

Abstract

In this descriptive quantitative study, thirty students from Universitas Muhammadiyah Aceh discuss the difficulties they had and the methods they used to get ready for the TOEFL. An 18-item questionnaire was used to gather the data, and the results show that the listening section presented the biggest issue, with 58.1% of participants finding it difficult to stay focused and limited in time. The reading portion, on the other hand, was thought to be easier, while some participants had trouble with vocabulary and time management. Students' strategies included using internet resources, with a significant emphasis on cognitive and metacognitive skills, such as TikTok, YouTube, and TOEFL-specific apps. Notably, frequent strategies for navigating the written expression and test structure parts included determining the core concept and closely examining sentence structure. These results imply that more students could benefit from focused listening exercises, improved training in metacognitive strategies, and expanded usage of online resources for TOEFL preparation. In order to better prepare students for the exam, educators might consider incorporating real TOEFL-like materials and time management advice into the curriculum.

Abstract

Deixis, the linguistic phenomenon of words pointing to specific entities in discourse or situational context, has been explored in various forms of expressive arts. One interesting example of deixis in expressive arts is the use of deixis in song lyrics. In this present study, Gayonese local songs from Aceh, Indonesia, in the Kupi Gayo album by Ervan Ceh Kul, are studied by examining the deictic terms he used to construct the cultural context of ten songs. For this goal, the descriptive qualitative method was used to analyze the songs deixis using the framework of Grundy (2000). The results revealed that the songwriter used more first and second personal deictic terms, suggesting that he tried to add a layer of emotional connection between the artist and the listeners, allowing for a more immersive and relatable musical experience. Nevertheless, he used place and temporal deixis less frequently, indicating that he tried to create rich and immersive experiences for the listeners. The results showed that using deictic terms in the vernacular language facilitates effective communication and understanding within a specific community or culture. By understanding the function and purpose of deixis in the vernacular language, researchers and linguists can gain insights into how individuals in a society navigate their social interactions.

Abstract

This research explores the use of conversational maxims and verbal offers in traditional market interactions in Pasar Aceh, Banda Aceh, Indonesia, aiming to expand the understanding of communication strategies that enhance seller-customer interactions. Despite extensive studies on Grice's Cooperative Principle in various contexts, limited research has examined how sellers in traditional markets strategically engage with these maxims to persuade customers. The study involved detailed observations, audio recordings, and interviews with eight Acehnese clothing sellers chosen for their active roles in daily market interactions. Using Grice's Cooperative Principle, which includes the maxims of quantity, quality, relevance, and manner, the findings reveal that these eight sellers strategically employ these maxims to persuade customers, with occasional variations encouraging smoother and more effective interactions. The analysis identified seven distinct verbal offer types: direct product mentions, polite customer calls, pricing discussions, product origin mentions, customer needs assessment, store entry invitations, and color-based product promotions. These findings provide a grounded theory of seller-customer interactions in traditional markets, presenting persuasive techniques that may enhance market engagement and consumer satisfaction. This study provides communication patterns within traditional market settings, especially in Aceh, and cross-cultural market communication research.

Abstract

This study examines the phonological varieties of Acehnese numeral words, using primary data from ten villages in the Aceh Jaya district on the west coast of Aceh, Indonesia, and supplementing it with secondary data from Standard Acehnese, Proto-Chamic, and other relevant languages and proto-languages. The research aims to elucidate the historical relationship between the Acehnese and Chamic languages through a comparative analysis. Fifteen numeral words (one to ten, eleven, twelve, twenty, one hundred, and one thousand) were elicited from informants aged 40 to 65. The collected data were recorded, transcribed into IPA symbols, and subsequently analysed. The findings indicate that the split between the Acehnese-Chamic branch and the Malayic languages occurred during the period when the terms for 'eight' and 'nine' were still undergoing lexical stabilisation. The Acehnese language was then subgrouped from Chamic, initially as a dialect. A few centuries later, the ancestors of the Acehnese migrated from mainland Southeast Asia to Sumatra, where their numeral system was subsequently influenced by borrowing from the Malay language. The dialects spoken on the west coast of Aceh retain linguistic evidence of the presence of a language similar to Proto-Chamic and its early contact with indigenous Sumatran populations, and those from the Malay Peninsula.

Abstract

Previous research has established that self-regulation plays a critical role in successful language acquisition. In parallel, language learning anxiety has been widely examined, though its influence is often understood through its negative relationship with self-regulatory abilities, suggesting that anxious learners struggle to deploy effective learning strategies. However, the direct and interactive effects of these two psychological constructs on English language achievement remain underexplored, particularly within Indonesian higher education contexts. To address this gap, the present study investigated the nature and extent to which language learning anxiety and self-regulation influence English language learning achievement among Indonesian EFL learners. Participants were 151 first-year university students from three faculties at Universitas Serambi Mekkah, Aceh, Indonesia, selected through cluster sampling. Data were collected using three instruments: (1) a validated self-regulation questionnaire, (2) a validated English language learning anxiety scale, and (3) a standardized test measuring general English competence. Regression analyses were employed to examine the predictive relationships among these variables. The findings showed that neither self-regulation nor language learning anxiety significantly predicted overall English competence. However, self-regulation showed a slightly greater contribution to English achievement than language learning anxiety, although neither effect was statistically significant. Notably, language learning anxiety significantly predicted self-regulation scores, indicating that anxious learners may struggle with self-regulatory capacity. Additionally, a weak positive correlation emerged between language learning anxiety and reading performance. These findings suggest that language learning anxiety does not directly determine competence success or failure; rather, it functions as a significant predictor of self-regulatory capacity and selectively influences specific language sub-skills such as reading comprehension.
