Abstract

The present research evaluated EFL perspectives about contextual clues in reading comprehension at different proficiency levels. The data analysis using qualitative descriptions with frequencies and percentages was employed for 38 intermediate-level students and 25 advanced-level students in the university level through teaching contextual clues in reading comprehension with an experimental design. The results proved that students' proficiency in reading ability could be demonstrated by their use of idiomatic expressions, indirect language, direct language, series of words, comparison, synonym, tone, situation, mood, reference, restatement, preposition, cause-effect, modification, and example. Advanced students with a high level of vocabulary, grammar, and decoding skills were better able to utilize many contextual clues than intermediate students. Thus, reading ability was strongly correlated with the ability to infer word meaning from contextual clues.

Abstract

This research focused on complex conditional sentences in the Christian bible, employing truth-conditional semantics and syntactic analysis to uncover their theological messages. A qualitative study analyzed 20 verses, categorized into four types of conditional sentences according to Ferdinand de Saussure's syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations. It involved word analysis, structural classification, context correlation, synonymous exploration, and historical and theological consideration. The findings revealed several key insights. First, conditional sentences in the Christian bible predominantly featured compound-complex structures with an active voice, highlighting subjects and actions in religious verses. Second, they adhered to declarative formats, aligning with truth-telling principles in religious contexts. Third, complex structures and subordinate clauses conveyed conditional details, reasons, and situations, elaborating on the interplay between syntax and semantics. This research enriched our understanding of the relationship among verb forms, modal verbs, and diverse meanings within English conditional sentence types in the Christian bible. Fourth, this research had a significant social impact on human development from a theological perspective by enhancing spiritual growth, critical thinking, and ethical understanding. It promoted personal transformation and reflective faith, providing religious leaders with tools to interpret scripture more accurately. Additionally, the research clarified how biblical language communicated moral imperatives, supported ethical frameworks, and facilitated interfaith dialogue. Preserving theological heritage contributed to the holistic development of individuals and communities. Ultimately, this study aimed to ensure the Bible's relevance in shaping social behavior aligned with Christian teachings.

Abstract

This study investigated the prevalence and types of rhetorical fallacies in the argumentative sections of English education theses, despite overall grammatical accuracy. Drawing on Toulmin’s argument model, cognitive reasoning theories, and nexus-juncture analysis, three-fifty undergraduate theses from three universities in Indonesia were analyzed qualitatively. Common fallacies such as hasty generalization, false cause, strawman, circular reasoning, and either/or reasoning were identified and mapped onto Toulmin’s components (claims, warrants, backing, rebuttals). Findings revealed that students demonstrated competency in grammatical structures but often lacked logical consistency in their arguments which led to flawed reasoning that undermined their thesis statements. The findings recommended that integrating rhetorical fallacy identification into writing instruction could improve both the clarity and validity of student arguments. This study highlighted the need for focused pedagogical strategies to address both grammar and reasoning skills in argumentative writing to promote effective and persuasive academic communication in English education.

Abstract

English as a lingua franca required an in-depth understanding of the translation of noun phrases in medical terminology due to the complex nature of noun phrases and involving explanatory words, resulting in a lack of understanding regarding the equivalence of meaning in English. The focus of this community service was to improve understanding of noun phrases in medical texts by applying translation analysis techniques which include translation shifts at the unit, structure, category and intra-system levels. Qualitative data from sentences in English medical textbooks and their translations into Indonesian were used as a basis for analysis through content analysis methods and focus group discussions (FGD) to understand the process of changing meaning in translation. The research sample involved 14 undergraduate students of Pharmacy and D-III Midwifery semester V at STIKes Mitra Husada Medan, North Sumatra. The results of this community service contribute to increasing public health literacy, especially among students in the health sector, thereby enabling collaboration between two fields of science that mutually contribute to sustainable development.

Abstract

The research analyzed student writing samples to identify common challenges such as vague conclusions, overuse of passive voice, and syntactic fragmentation by focusing on three key pedagogical components: genre-specific rhetorical moves, service lexicon precision, and contextual register awareness. Findings revealed that students often lacked awareness of professional genre conventions, resulting in ineffective expression of experiential learning and accountability. Through targeted instruction that incorporated move-based modeling with lexical enhancement and discourse-level sensitivity, participants demonstrated significant improvement in clarity, coherence and professional tone. The research underscored the effectiveness of an integrated and genre-informed approach in elevating students’ communicative competence in hospitality reporting tasks could offer implications for curriculum design in ESP contexts.

Abstract

Speaking fluency remains a persistent challenge for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners, particularly at the secondary school level, where students often experience disruptions in speech flow due to difficulties in transforming conceptual intentions into coherent spoken output. These disruptions not only affect linguistic accuracy but also hinder real-time communication and discourse coherence. This study aimed to investigate how targeted pedagogical interventions, specifically idea chunking rehearsals and partner listening journals, could reconstruct speaking flow disruptions and enhance fluency and coherence among Indonesian high school EFL students. Adopting a process-oriented qualitative research approach grounded in theories of cognitive fluency and discourse organization, the study analyzed students’ spoken performance before and after the interventions. Data were collected through audio-recorded spontaneous and integrated speaking tasks administered during classroom activities. Qualitative discourse analysis was employed to identify recurring types of speaking disruptions, including hesitation clustering, disconnected nominal references, and collapsed verb chains. The findings indicated that students were able to internalize the targeted strategies, leading to improved real-time message planning, monitoring, and delivery. Pedagogically, the findings suggest that integrating process-based fluency interventions into speaking instruction can help learners manage cognitive load during speech production. These results offer practical implications for EFL teachers and curriculum designers seeking to address fluency development through cognitively informed and classroom-applicable strategies.

Abstract

This study investigated narrative coherence in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) writing through a cognitive-rhetorical framework that integrated event causality mapping, referential consistency, and affective trajectory control. Conducted at two private universities in North Sumatra, the study involved 24 third-year EFL students enrolled in academic writing courses. Using discourse analysis of student narratives and targeted revision tasks, the study revealed frequent disruptions in logical event sequencing, inconsistent referent tracking, and unstable emotional flow. Findings indicated that guided instruction using cognitive-rhetorical strategies significantly enhanced students’ ability to construct coherent narratives. The proposed framework supported deeper rhetorical awareness and cognitive control in written storytelling. It offered practical implications for EFL pedagogy in Indonesian university contexts.
