Abstract

Reciprocality, also known as reciprocal situation or reciprocal constructions, constitutes an expression which describes both the forms and meaning of an activity embodying a mutual relation. Papuan Malay, a pidginized lingua franca in Western New Guinea, has three types of constructions expressing reciprocality: lexical reciprocals, prototypical syntactic reciprocals with the baku construction, and syntactic reciprocals with the discontinuous satu... satu construction. Some additional constructions are considered to be reciprocal-like. These reciprocal constructions vary in their argument structure and valence operations. In argument structure, most constructions allow two kinds of argument structure: Type 1, which takes only a subject argument, and Type 2, which takes both a subject and object, and follows the basic SVO word order. However, the object in the Type 2 construction becomes oblique-like, indicating reduced transitivity in order to accommodate the concept of mutual relation. In valence operations, reciprocals can undergo both valence decreasing and valence increasing operations. In addition, some reciprocal constructions require subject and object to be syntactically retained, even though semantically they represent the same agent-patient/goal mutual relation.

Abstract

Serial verb constructions are grammatical constructions that are still debatable by linguists from different schools of theories because of whether they are considered as simple or complex predicates in terms of their various structures found in world's languages. Creol languages such as Papuan Malay has serial verb constructions interested for further studies because there are lacks of similar studies done in the language. This research describes serial verb constructions in Papuan Malay. Its focus is to investigate syntactic and semantic structures of serial verb constructions. In the research, the descriptive linguistic method is used and its approach is the typological analysis where it focuses on analyzing particular linguistic features, i.e. serial verb constructions. The elicitation technique is used to collect data and it is also beneficial to supplement the syntagmatic analysis when the data is analysed in linear/horizontal order to easily look for the syntactic structure, argument structure, and argument sharing of serial verb constructions. The results show that serial verb constructions in Papuan Malay has two types, i.e. Dependent and Co-dependent serializations. Both types are categorized based on their argument structure and argument sharing properties, as well as their semantic expressions. Further, they are categorized as serial verb constructions by the definition of sequence of events within a monoclausality as the main feature of serial verb constructions in Papuan Malay. This paper gives a contribution to the theory of syntax and typology about the structural and semantic expressions of the serial verb constructions by reflecting the serial verb constructions in Papuan Malay.Keywords: Papuan Malay, Serial verb constructions, dependent serialization, co-dependent serialization, monoclausality

Abstract

Teacher professional development is widely recognized as a key driver of instructional innovation, particularly in geographically remote and under-resourced educational settings. However, limited evidence is available regarding how teachers perceive instructional innovations following professional development experiences in such contexts. This study aimed to examine teachers’ perceptions of the GASING (Gampang, Asyik, dan Menyenangkan) method and explore the relationships among key perception dimensions associated with instructional innovation in a remote educational setting. A quantitative descriptive design was employed involving 22 elementary and junior high school teachers in Teluk Bintuni, West Papua, Indonesia, who had participated in GASING training. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire covering six dimensions: cognitive understanding, affective response, pragmatic value, contextual feasibility, interest and engagement, and behavioral intention. Descriptive statistics and Chi-square tests were used for data analysis. The results revealed consistently positive perceptions across all dimensions, with mean scores ranging from 4.00 to 4.77 on a five-point scale. Teachers demonstrated strong cognitive understanding, positive affective responses, and high perceived practical value of the GASING method. Chi-square analysis showed that most dimensions were statistically independent, although a marginal association was found between contextual feasibility and behavioral intention (χ² = 3.009; p = 0.083). These findings suggest that positive teacher perceptions alone may not ensure sustained instructional change in remote contexts.
