Abstract

This study aims to analyze how xenoglossophilia manifests in podcast content, and its impact on the communication patterns of Generation Z. Adopting a qualitative approach, this study uses discourse analysis to examine popular podcasts that frequently incorporate foreign languages and are widely consumed by Generation Z. The survey results conclude that Generation Z's foreign language use is primarily driven by social trends and influences, with social media and films as the primary sources. Foreign languages are most frequently used in everyday conversation and social media, while usage in formal contexts remains low, suggesting that this practice is more of a lifestyle than a communicative need. Analysis of The Indah G Show podcast reinforces these findings through quotes highlighting the superiority of English over Indonesian in terms of efficiency and vocabulary. This phenomenon reflects a shift in the linguistic attitudes of the younger generation and poses challenges in maintaining the sustainability and prestige of the Indonesian language in the era of globalization. This study recommends the development of a digital media-based learning model for the use of foreign languages to preserve and strengthen national language identity.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Gemini AI-assisted storytelling therapy as an innovative approach to addressing speech delays in early childhood. Through qualitative methodology incorporating case studies, literature review, and action research with children aged 6-8 years, participants engaged in therapeutic storytelling sessions facilitated by Gemini AI, which generated personalized narratives based on individual abilities while providing real-time analysis of verbal responses. The AI system's adaptive algorithms continuously refined story content to match each child's developmental progress, creating an engaging learning environment throughout the intervention period. Sessions gradually increased linguistic complexity while incorporating children's preferences, fostering both communicative skills and emotional investment. Data collection included pre- and post-intervention assessments, recorded therapy sessions, parental interviews, and AI-generated progress reports tracking specific speech parameters. Results demonstrated significant improvements in vocabulary acquisition, sentence structure, and speaking confidence, with children exhibiting increased engagement during sessions while scheduling flexibility enhanced parental involvement. The findings confirm that AI-assisted storytelling therapy represents an effective intervention for speech delays, as the personalized content and real-time assessment capabilities complement traditional speech therapy approaches, potentially expanding accessibility to quality intervention while providing a scalable solution for the growing demand for specialized speech services.
