Abstract

This study examines how pop culture enthusiasts use language on the @westenthu auto-base account to express identity and foster community in digital spaces. Tweets from October 3 to October 5, 2024, are analysed qualitatively through document analysis to identify linguistic patterns, contextual usage, and cultural dynamics. The limited timeframe was chosen to ensure a focused, detailed examination of interactions without overwhelming data volume, which is essential for qualitative research. Findings reveal the frequent use of code-switching, code-mixing (e.g., “drop ur fav Christmas wst movies yang seru plss”), slang (e.g., “nonton Princess Diaries dimana ya? Tia!”), and informal language, illustrating the dynamic interplay between language and identity in online communication. These linguistic practices show how platforms like X (formerly Twitter) not only facilitate interaction but also create spaces for identity construction and rapid language evolution. By analysing specific language features, this research offers insights into the intersection of sociolinguistics and digital communication, highlighting how language adapts and thrives in digital environments.

Abstract

This study examines the representation of Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) in the reading texts of the Indonesian EFL textbook Bahasa Inggris Tingkat Lanjut and analyzes the distribution of cultural types. Despite increasing research on ICC in EFL materials, limited studies have specifically investigated how ICC components are systematically represented in textbooks used under the Merdeka Curriculum. Using a descriptive quantitative content analysis, 13 reading texts were analyzed based on Byram’s framework (1997; 2021), which includes five components: savoirs, savoir être, savoir comprendre, savoir apprendre/faire, and savoir s’engager. Cultural content was categorized into source, target, and international cultures. The findings reveal that all ICC components are present but unevenly distributed. Savoirs is the most dominant, while savoir comprendre is the least represented, indicating a stronger emphasis on cultural knowledge and values than on interpretive and interactive skills. International culture is the most prominent, followed by a balanced presence of source and target cultures, although their depth varies. Overall, ICC integration remains partial and unbalanced. The study highlights the need for more comprehensive integration of intercultural dimensions to support students’ holistic competence in line with the Merdeka Curriculum.
