Abstract

The urge of gender equality had been going on for several decades and even though people were aware of it yet there was no significant result toward the effort. Not to neglect all the intended purposes of many studies previously, still somehow the significant differences were less shown in the practice. In order to identify such matter, hence the study was conducted. The visual illustrations in textbook were not only as the aesthetic aspect of one but also to represent matters that could easily be understood better by visualization. The gender representation was analyzed by its numbers of appearances, ratio and also the settings of each gender was situated in the illustrations. By the end of the study, it could be stated that the lack of female representation in appearance and ratio issue was still existing in the textbook. However, in most of the illustrations, both of the genders were situated in social settings in general though there were several in domestic ones. The further study was needed in order to analyze the other elements of the textbook.

Abstract

Filipino Generation Z's creative ability to experiment with morphemes is a factor in the emergence of new words. These lexical items possess the capacity to function as nouns, verbs, and adjectives within the Filipino language. This study aims to examine how Filipino Generation Z slang terminologies are formed if such terms undergo a particular process that adheres to a specific morphological structure and if new sets of rules are observed that are not included in the current morphological rules. Since the researchers used words to analyze the gathered data, a qualitative research design utilizing content analysis was employed in this study. This study employed homogeneous sampling, with researchers extracting only Generation Z slang from the Facebook posts of PNUV first- to fourth-year students as the corpus. The framework matrix was used to determine the morphological processes underlying Generation Z slang. Consequently, it was determined that word formation processes such as coinage, borrowing, compounding, blending, clipping, acronyms, affixation, conversion, and multiple processes were utilized to create Generation Z slang. In addition, the data revealed additional word formation processes, such as contraction, reduplication, and spelling change. Most Filipino Generation Z slang word formation was categorized as a change in spelling. Future researchers can gain a deeper understanding of how the Filipino generation z's language is shaped and how it differs from previous generations by examining linguistic patterns and word forms.

Abstract

This study is set in a rapidly evolving digital world where websites have become vital, especially in the hotel industry. Hotel industries utilize websites to capture guests' first impressions through a welcome message. As a result, the study probed the typical rhetorical strategies (moves and steps) and the frequently used phrases or clauses in each move and step in the welcome messages on the websites of selected hotels in Western Visayas, where this region is set to claim a significant role in the tourist industry, attracting both local and foreign visitors. Using Google, the researchers used purposeful sampling to gather eligible hotel websites with welcome messages in Western Visayas. For the qualitative data, this study used Swale's Move-Step approach. The result shows that the welcome messages follow a common pattern. The researchers discovered that the corpora have four moves, and each move has one to three steps. These moves and steps represent the typical strategies of hotels' welcome messages. However, the phrases being used, especially the modifiers, vary in their exact formulation but convey the same underlying intention. This study reveals the structured language strategies employed by Western Visayas hotels in their website welcome messages. These findings have implications for ESP education, helping tailor language instruction for the hospitality industry. It aids educators in designing effective language learning strategies in line with evolving communication conventions, enhancing ESP education for specific professions.
