Abstract

This study aims to determine the types of errors in translating short fiction. The researcher used a qualitative descriptive study with 25 students of English Literature at Makassar State University. Data collection was carried out from a test to find out what types of errors were in the results of each student's translation. Based on the results of the study it was found that there were 4 types of errors in the students' translation results, namely Omission, Addition, Misinformation and Misordering. In Week 1 there were 72 omission errors, 60 addition errors, 82 misinformation and 16 misordering errors. In week 2 there were 53 omission errors, 54 addition errors, 56 misinformation errors and 13 Misordering. The last test in week 3 was Omission with 30 errors, Addition with 39 errors, misinformation with 31 errors and misordering with 3 errors. Finally, the researcher concluded that most students were still confused about using grammar and understanding words because of the influence of the First Language and the lack of competence in the rules or structure of the Second Language.

Abstract

This quantitative study investigates the impact of singing songs on English as a Second Language vocabulary acquisition. Sixty Indonesian ESL learners were randomized into experimental and control groups, with the experimental group engaging in singing activities while the control group followed traditional instruction. Pre-test and post-test assessments in vocabulary, pronunciation, and translation were completed. The experimental group showed substantial gains across all metrics, including a 15.3 point vocabulary increase, 2.3 point pronunciation improvement, and 5.8 point translation enhancement (all p<0.001). Outcomes align with prior research on singing for language learning and support incorporating singing into ESL teaching to actively engage learners and improve linguistic skills. Limitations include short-term analysis and adult-focused sampling. Recommendations are longitudinal research, diverse participants, qualitative inquiries into experiences, and continued singing technique optimization.

Abstract

This study uses a qualitative approach that focuses on an in-depth analysis of Langston Hughes' poem The Weary Blues, with the aim of exploring and understanding the use of literary devices in the work. The main analytical framework used is L.G. Alexander's theory, which classifies literary devices into three main categories: structural devices, sound devices, and sense devices. The main methodology applied in this study is the close reading technique, which enables in-depth identification and analysis of the various literary devices used by Hughes. In addition, the analysis takes into account the historical and cultural background of the Harlem Renaissance era, which greatly influenced Hughes' works. The primary source of this research is the thoroughly analyzed text of the poem The Weary Blues, as well as various secondary sources that discuss Hughes' work and African-American modernist poetry. The research also integrates aspects of reader response theory to understand how the literary devices used by Hughes influence readers' interpretation and appreciation of his poetry. The results of the analysis show that the use of complex and interrelated literary devices, such as repetition, rhyme, and imagery, enriches the reader's multisensory experience, thereby enhancing understanding and appreciation of the poem. The findings emphasize the importance of more effective educational approaches to teaching poetry analysis as well as learning strategies that can deepen readers' engagement with literary texts.
