Abstract

This research looked into how hedges were used in the British Council Teacher Podcast. How can I use different languages in my teaching? This research set out to 1) characterize the language characteristics of hedges and 2) examine the roles that hedges play in conversation. Because this study aims to provide explanations, the qualitative method is employed. The data consisted of utterances made by the podcast participants—Chris, Sue, Mei, and Tony—that indicated the use of hedges. Through the examination of 40 hedging instances, the research identified various types of hedges, with modal lexical verbs being the most frequently used (20%), followed by approximators, introduction phrases, and adjectival/adverbial modal phrases (each at 17.5%). "If" clauses (12.5%) and compound hedges (15%) were also prevalent, showcasing the speakers’ strategic use of linguistic devices to express uncertainty, manage interpersonal relationships, and foster engagement. The findings demonstrate that hedges serve as a critical tool in discussing sensitive topics, such as language policies in education, allowing the speakers to present their views in a flexible and adaptable manner. This research highlights the important role hedging plays in maintaining politeness, reducing imposition, and creating a collaborative conversational environment, particularly in discussions about teaching practices and multilingualism.

Pedicab drivers in tourist locations utilize politeness strategies to create communications when face-threatening acts are unavoidable or deliberate in order to preserve the hearer's positive and negative face. In the interactions between pedicab drivers and international tourists, 15 data on positive politeness strategies and 14 data on negative politeness strategies were identified. The data analysis provided is taken from the representative data for each strategy. The dominant sub-strategy from the positive politeness strategy is "Notice, Attend to H (his Interest, Wants, Needs, Goods)," while the dominant sub-strategy from the negative politeness strategy is "Apologize."

Abstract

This research discusses the euphemism in the oral statement of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia in 2014 at the Public Sitting of the International Court of Justice on The Legal Consequences Arising from The Policies and Practices of Israel in The Occupied Palestine. This research aimed to find out how types of euphemisms are used and find out their purpose. The method used was a qualitative method with data in the form of Retno Marusudi's verbal statement. The data were analyzed using the warren framework to determine the type and function of the euphemism uttered. This research resulted in Compounding (10.5%), derivation (10.5%), Blends (5.26%), acronyms (5.26%), and abbreviations (5.26%) as part of word formation. Phonemic modification is represented by abbreviations, appearing once at 5.26%. The speech utilized a variety of semantic innovation strategies: particularization, implication, metaphor, metonymy, and understatement each appear twice, accounting for 10.53% each. Reversal/irony and overstatement were used once, each constituting 5.26%. The way euphemistic functions were distributed in Marsudi's discourse showed that coherent, provocative, underhanded, and protecting euphemisms were all used in moderation. The percentage of protective euphemisms was 21.1%; the percentage of underhanded and cohesive euphemisms is 15.8%; the percentage of provocative euphemisms was 31.6%; the percentage of uplifting and ludic euphemisms was less, at 5.3% and 10.5%, respectively. The use of euphemisms aims to convey a strong yet diplomatic message, highlight political and legal sensitivities, and emphasize urgency and injustice so that the message conveyed remains firm yet expressed subtly, clarifying Indonesia's diplomatic position while provoking understanding and emotional responses from the audience.

Abstract

This article delves into the interpretation of Pencak Silat, an ancient Indonesian martial art, through the lens of Clifford Geertz's concept of "Blurred Genres." Pencak Silat encompasses a wide array of traditional and modern martial art genres, practiced individually or in duels, with or without musical accompaniment. The study focuses on the cultural, social, and political dimensions of Pencak Silat, particularly its impact on Indonesian society. The article establishes the historical roots of Pencak Silat in Old Malay culture, evolving from the Buddhist-Hindu kingdom of Sriwijaya (seventh to eleventh centuries CE). It explores the martial art's role in shaping national identity during President Soeharto's New Order regime. Pencak Silat served as a vehicle for the promotion of national identity and New Order citizenship. The analysis employs Geertz's three major analogies—Game, Drama, and Text—to interpret Pencak Silat. As a "body cultivation," Silat's presence aligns well with Geertz's tools for interpreting anthropological phenomena.
