Abstract

Language plays a crucial role in shaping political discourse, especially through the use of specific grammatical structures such as nouns. This study analyzes the types and functions of nouns used in President Prabowo Subianto’s speech delivered on May 1, 2025, during the Labor Day rally in Jakarta. The speech focuses on the government's plan to reclaim state assets from private control, presenting a message embedded with nationalistic and constitutional themes. Using a qualitative descriptive method with content analysis, the study classifies nouns in the speech into eight categories: common, proper, concrete, abstract, countable, uncountable, collective, and compound nouns. Data were collected from a published version of the speech on The Jakarta Post website and analyzed sentence by sentence to identify each noun and its type. The results revealed a total of 188 nouns across 15 core sentences. Common nouns were the most frequently used (34.6%), followed by countable nouns (24.0%) and proper nouns (16.0%). The presence of abstract nouns (14.9%) and compound nouns (10.6%) highlighted the ideological and policy-oriented content of the speech. These findings suggest that President Prabowo’s noun choices were intentional and strategically used to legitimize political actions, construct national identity, and appeal to public sentiment. This study contributes to the field of applied linguistics, particularly in political discourse analysis, by demonstrating how linguistic forms especially nouns serve as tools of persuasion, authority, and ideology in political communication.

Abstract

This research analyze the implementation of English language assessments for listening, speaking, reading, and writing based on the principles of validity, reliability, practicality, authenticity, and washback.The assessment is administered into 27 students of seventh grade at SMP Negeri 1 Pematangsiantar. The research aims to evaluate how the designed assessments align with effective assessment principles while addressing classroom realities.The quality of the test is analyzed by using mixed-method approach, quantitative analysis utilized the Pearson Product-Moment and Split-Half methods to measure validity and reliability, while qualitative analysis examined practicality, authenticity, and washback through observation and student feedback. The findings indicate that while several test items fulfilled validity and reliability criteria, many required revision to enhance alignment with learning objectives and improve consistency. Practicality was evident as the assessments could be conducted within time and resource limitations, although challenges appeared in scoring and analysis processes. Authenticity was reflected in the use of materials and tasks closely related to students' daily contexts, promoting meaningful language use. Additionally, the assessments generated positive washback, motivating students to engage actively in learning while providing teachers with insights for instructional improvement. These results highlight the significance of designing assessments that are not only aligned with curriculum goals but also promote comprehensive language skill development. The research contributes to enriching assessment literacy among pre-service teachers and emphasizes the continuous need for reflection and refinement in language assessment practices to foster effective English learning environments in EFL contexts.

Abstract

Dalam bidang linguistik, studi tata bahasa menggali struktur dan fungsi bahasa yang rumit. Salah satu aspek mendasar tata bahasa adalah analisis objek langsung, yang memainkan peran penting dalam menyampaikan makna dalam kalimat. Objek langsung berfungsi sebagai penerima tindakan yang dilakukan oleh subjek, memberikan informasi penting tentang apa atau kepada siapa tindakan tersebut diarahkan. Konsep ini sangat penting dalam memahami dinamika konstruksi kalimat dalam berbagai bahasa. Eksplorasi objek langsung dapat ditelusuri kembali ke perkembangan awal teori linguistik, ketika para sarjana berusaha menjelaskan prinsip-prinsip dasar yang mengatur organisasi bahasa. Dilihat melalui prisma banyak tradisi teoritis, termasuk linguistik kognitif, tata bahasa fungsional, dan tata bahasa generatif, para peneliti telah meneliti mekanisme dimana objek langsung berinteraksi dengan elemen linguistik lain untuk membangun ucapan yang koheren. Arti penting dari objek langsung melampaui linguistik teoritis, menembus domain praktis seperti pengajaran bahasa, pemrosesan bahasa alami, dan studi penerjemahan. Artikel ini mengkaji konsep 'objek langsung' dalam bahasa Inggris dari sudut pandang teoritis dan praktis. Melalui tinjauan pustaka dan analisis contoh kalimat bertujuan untuk memberikan pemahaman menyeluruh mengenai peran dan fungsi benda langsung dalam struktur kalimat. Artikel ini juga membahas perbedaan antara benda langsung dan jenis benda lainnya, serta kesalahan umum dalam penggunaannya.
