Abstract

Every ethnic group has its own cultural identity and is used as a reference to distinguish between one ethnic group and another. Understanding cultural identity is important to avoid cultural conflicts so that all ethnic groups within a unitary society can live side by side in harmony. The core discussion in this research is related to Chinese cultural identity based on the novel To Live written by Yu Hua with two points of discussion, kinship system and marriage system, conducted by means of a qualitative descriptive method to obtain data related to social phenomena with the results of the analysis in the form of description. Concepts and theories relating to cultural identity, Chinese cultural identity, kinship and marriage systems are implemented to support the overall research. The results of the analysis show that wherever Chinese ethnic groups are located, they try to maintain their cultural traditions. In Chinese culture, kinship includes all members of the extended family and the essence of a marriage is the union of two extended families; both have values that must be used as guidelines based on the teachings of Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism; the value of maintaining and preserving harmonization and norms to bind each individual to remain in the corridor of cultural tradition heritage.

Abstract

This study is motivated by the importance of understanding interpersonal meaning in the translation of cultural texts, particularly Javanese parikan, which encompasses not only linguistic aspects but also social and cultural values. The study aims to analyze interpersonal meaning variation in the translation of Javanese parikan into Indonesian using the Systemic Functional Linguistics approach and to examine its implications for language learning. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method with data sourced from parikan in the book Parikan-Pantun Jawa. The sample consists of 100 clauses selected through purposive sampling. Data analysis focuses on identifying mood and residue structures to examine interpersonal meaning shifts between source and target texts. The findings reveal that low variation dominates at 62%, followed by moderate variation at 25% and high variation at 13%. These results indicate that most interpersonal structures in the source text are preserved in the translation due to the grammatical similarities between Javanese and Indonesian. Furthermore, the study shows that parikan can be utilized as a contextual learning resource, as it helps students understand the relationship between linguistic structure and social function. Therefore, the Systemic Functional Linguistics approach is not only effective for translation analysis but also relevant for developing culturally based language learning.

Abstract

The role of English teachers' speech functions as socio-semiotic resources is undeniably crucial in shaping student learning engagement, yet its psychological impact remains under-explored in Indonesian English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms. This study aimed to systematically investigate the types of speech functions utilized by EFL educators and critically analyze their direct socio-semiotic impact on students' behavioral, emotional, and cognitive engagement. Employing a qualitative descriptive design framed within Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), the research involved twenty eleventh-grade students and their teachers over a four-week naturalistic observation period. Data were rigorously collected through high-fidelity audiovisual recordings, multidimensional engagement observation protocols, and stimulated-recall interviews for methodological triangulation. Preliminary baseline data indicated that 80% of the students exhibited merely low to moderate engagement, relying heavily on superficial behavioral compliance. The subsequent linguistic discourse analysis empirically revealed that the teachers' dominant use of unmitigated commands and declarative statements created a highly restrictive semiotic environment that actively stifled spontaneous participation. Conversely, the strategic deployment of authentic, open-ended questions and supportive pedagogical offers functioned as inviting semiotic signs that significantly elevated students' emotional security and cognitive effort. The study concludes that a teacher's linguistic choices are not neutral instructional mechanisms, but rather powerful semiotic instruments that fundamentally construct or deconstruct the psychological reality of the learning space..

Abstract

The increasing use of authentic English materials in Indonesian English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms has highlighted the need to understand the syntactic characteristics of newspaper discourse. However, limited studies have comprehensively examined the syntactic features of English news articles and their implications for English language teaching in Indonesia. This study aimed to analyze the syntactic features employed in The Jakarta Post news articles and explore their pedagogical implications for English language teaching. A qualitative descriptive design was adopted using document analysis. The data consisted of twenty news articles selected through purposive sampling from The Jakarta Post. The collected data were analyzed through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing following the interactive model proposed by Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña. The findings revealed that all four major sentence types—simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex—were identified, with complex sentences occurring most frequently. The analysis also indicated the extensive use of coordination and subordination to organize information effectively in authentic journalistic discourse. These findings suggest that The Jakarta Post provides authentic linguistic input that can support the teaching of English syntax, reading comprehension, and academic writing. Consequently, authentic newspaper texts can serve as valuable instructional resources for enhancing students' syntactic awareness and bridging the gap between grammatical knowledge and real-world language use
