Abstract

Research on identity status in literary works has not been in-depth exploration. Those researches discussed the identity status in general and were still very limited in literary study. Therefore, this study explores one of the identity statuses in detail using Kroger's (2005) achieved identity characteristics consisting of three domains; the personality variable, cognitive process and interpersonal relationship. Each domain has achieved identity features. This research is a documentary. The procedures were reading the script repeatedly; identifying the main character's actions, thoughts, reflections, thoughts, feelings, and desires; coding, classifying, analyzing and interpreting the data. The results indicated that Moana's personality, cognitive process, and interpersonal relationships proved that Moana's achieved identity in the three domains is well built. She has most of the features of achieved identity. This study also proved that identity status can be explored in fictional characters. Therefore, future research can explore this identity or other identity statuses in depth. Parents or schools can use movies with characters with this identity to help children develop their identity status to the highest, achieved identity.Keywords: Achieved identity,identity status, movie

Abstract

Orthography development for the languages of East Nusa Tenggara has been undertaken by various institutions and researchers, resulting in multiple conventions for representing the same phonological features. However, systematic evaluation of these variations remains limited. This study examines how implosive consonants—bilabial /ɓ/, alveolar /ɗ/, palatal /ʄ/, and velar /ɠ/—are represented in existing orthographies and discusses the pedagogical implications of these representations. A comparative qualitative design was employed through documentary analysis and orthography testing. Documentary data were collected from grammars, linguistic publications, and community literacy materials representing eight languages. Orthography testing involved 20 elementary school students and 10 teachers from Hawu and Dela communities. Participants completed oral reading tasks followed by group discussions. The findings reveal considerable variation in the representation of implosive consonants across languages and institutions, including both underrepresentation and overrepresentation of phonemes. These inconsistencies may reduce orthographic transparency and create additional challenges for beginning readers, particularly in multilingual educational contexts. The study highlights the importance of consistent phoneme–grapheme correspondences and encourages collaboration among researchers, institutions, and language communities in developing more transparent orthographic systems for the languages of East Nusa Tenggara.
