Abstract

This research examines the speech functions present in the lyrics of Maher Zain's song "Free Palestine," which was recently released in June 2024. The song was selected because its lyrics serve not only as entertainment but also as a means to convey important messages, raise awareness, and foster empathy for current humanitarian issues. The primary objective of this study is to investigate how speech functions are realized in the lyrics of "Free Palestine" through discourse analysis. The research employs a qualitative approach. The data were analyzed focusing on speech functions. The data analysis process involved several steps, namely: initially identifying the lyrics, segmenting the lyrics into clauses, analyzing the clauses in terms of its function, determining the Mood types based on their grammatical structures (Declarative, Interrogative, Imperative, and Exclamative), and identifying speech functions, and drawing conclusions. The results revealed there were three types of Mood: Declarative, Interrogative, and Imperative. Declarative statement was predominant in the song, comprising 73.68% of the total analyzed clauses.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of using the ELSA Speak Application integrated with the demonstration method on students' pronunciation practice. Pronunciation is an essential aspect of English language teaching that directly influences speaking ability, yet many students face challenges due to native language interference and lack of oral exposure. This research was conducted at SMP Plus Nusantara Medan involving 12 seventh-grade students selected through a purposive sampling technique. The research employed a quasi-experimental design with a single group pre-test and post-test design. Data were collected from the results of students' pre-test and post-test scores, which were then analyzed using statistical tests. Before hypothesis testing, normality and homogeneity tests were conducted, showing that the data were normally distributed and homogeneous. The result of the paired t-test showed a p-value (sig. 2-tailed) of 0.000, which is significantly smaller than the significance level (α=0.050). It was obtained that the t-statistical value was higher than the table t-value (43.203 > 2.201). Therefore, the null hypothesis (H0 ) was rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha ) was accepted. The findings demonstrate that the ELSA Speak Application integrated with the demonstration method significantly improved students' pronunciation practice. This approach is recommended as an effective teaching strategy to enhance students' phonetic skills.
