Abstract

This paper is abstracted from the findings of a case study aimed at describing the codes used by children at Al-Amin Children Islamic Boarding School in Sukoharjo, Central Java. The majority of children at this Children Islamic Boarding School are bilinguals. They use javanese as their first language and Indonesian as their second language. However; they live in a specific language condition in which they should only use Indonesian in their daily activities. The analysis shows that the codes used by children are in the form of language (Indonesian and Javanese), speech level (ngoko, madya and krama), and style (formal, informal and brief). The differentiation of function between Indonesian and Javanese is not quite clear. Frequently, children use both Indonesian and Javanese in many occassions. As a result, there amny code switching and code mixing in their speech. Code swicthing occured in their speech to function: (1) count (2) think aloud (3) show annoyance (4) give emphasis (5) give reinforcement (6) give respect, and (7) make quotation. The result also shows that code mixing indicates that childrens mastery of Indonesian and Javanese is still lacking. Besides, it also indicates that they get confused with language function.Key words: code forms, code function, code switching, and code mixing

Abstract

Folktales as a cultural expression can contain all aspects of human life including violence. As Indonesia comprises so many diverse cultures, the contextof violence, its degree and its nature, are also various. This study examines the forms of violence in Indonesian folktales, focusing on how physical and verbal violence are depicted in Indonesian folktales retold in children’s books that were published in ten years of post-reformasi period. Content analysis is used to scrutinize the forms of violence. The finding shows that physical and verbal violence in Indonesian folktales retold as children’s storybooks is prevalent. I argue that the diverse forms and nature of violence presented in children’s story books illuminate the connection between social and individual expressions of violence. This study provides a way to look at the structural and ideological function ofviolence in contemporary traditional folk literature.

Abstract

Purpose: The aim of the study is to explore EFL Students’ Perception on The Use of TikTok in Vocabulary Learning beyond the Classroom. Methodology: The study incorporates two types of data: information regarding the use of TikTok and perceptions of TikTok. Data were collected from second-grade students at a state senior high school in Tempuling through questionnaires and interviews. The questionnaire, distributed via Google Forms, comprised sixteen statements prompting student responses. The questionnaire findings were corroborated through interviews with selected students serving as representatives. Data analysis followed the steps outlined by Miles and Huberman (1994) and was thematically analysed to address the research questions. Results: All students possess a TikTok account and utilise the platform to enhance their English vocabulary. Furthermore, students find learning English vocabulary through TikTok to be both facile and enjoyable. Additionally, they derive considerable benefits from employing TikTok for such learning and express a desire for their teachers to utilise the platform for English instruction in the classroom. Applications/Originality/Value: While prior studies primarily examine TikTok's use for learning English within the classroom, this study highlights the use of the platform beyond the classroom and found that learning English vocabularies independently with the help of Tiktok beneficial for students and possible to be complementary to the classroom classical learning.

Abstract

This research investigates the translation techniques employed by ChatGPT in translating J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, focusing on the accuracy and acceptability of the translations produced. Utilizing a qualitative approach, the study analyzes data from the original English text, the Indonesian translation generated by ChatGPT, and feedback from five evaluators based on predetermined criteria. The data analysis process involved comparing the source and target texts to categorize translation strategies and calculating average scores from raters. The findings reveal that ChatGPT effectively utilized various translation strategies, with Translation by Paraphrase Using a Related Word being the most used (62%). Other strategies included Translation by a More Neutral or Less Expressive Word (24%) and Translation by a More General Word (8%). The overall accuracy score was relatively high; however, challenges arose in maintaining acceptability, particularly regarding expressive tones and cultural nuances. This study contributes significantly to understanding AI's role in literary translation, showcasing both its potential and limitations in handling complex literary elements. By highlighting these aspects, it advances the discourse on AI's evolving capabilities in creative fields.

Methodology: Under the umbrella of qualitative research, the data are the utterances of Livjunkie, a popular Indonesian beauty vlogger, which contain code-mixing collected using documentation. The data are then analysed referring to Muysken (2000) for the types of code mixing and Holmes (2017) for the factors influencing code mixing. Results: The study revealed that insertion was the most common type of code mixing (61.8%), followed by congruent lexicalization (21.8%) and alternation (12.7%). Furthermore, three main factors influencing code-mixing were identified i.e. recipient identity (53.33%), social relationship (28.57%), and topic change (35.71%). Applications/Originality/Value: The frequent use of code-mixing highlights the informal and engaging nature of Livjunkie’s content, which aims to connect more personally with its di-verse audience. This research contributes to understanding the role of code-mixing in digital content and offers insights into how multilingual creators like Livjunkie effectively use the strategy to increase audience engagement and cultural representation while navigating global and local language dy-namics.
