Abstract

This study examines the comparative conceptualization of language politeness in a pragmatic perspective through a systematic literature study approach to contemporary politeness strategy theories. A descriptive qualitative methodology was used to analyze academic publications for the 2020-2024 period related to linguistic politeness. The findings reveal that the Brown- Levinson theory remains the dominant paradigm, but it requires adaptation to diverse cultural and situational contexts. Comparative analysis shows significant variability in the implementation of politeness strategies based on communication medium, social hierarchy, and cultural orientation. The context of digital communication presents new challenges that require theoretical reformulation to accommodate the unique characteristics of virtual interactions. The theoretical implications point to the need to develop an integrative model that harmonizes universal principles with local particularities in the analysis of pragmatic linguistic politeness. The findings indicate that Brown and Levinson’s (1987) theory of politeness continues to serve as the dominant paradigm in politeness research due to its structured categorization of positive and negative politeness strategies. However, despite its enduring influence, the theory shows limitations when applied to diverse cultural and situational contexts, particularly in non-Western societies where norms of interpersonal interaction often diverge from its original assumptions.

Abstract

This research investigates the connotative meanings found within selected Taylor Swift song lyrics to explore the emotional, symbolic, and cultural dimensions that extend beyond their literal meanings. The study focused on ten songs from the years 2010 to 2022, purposefully chosen from albums like Red, 1989, Reputation, and Folklore due to their rich thematic content and lyrical complexity. As the data comprised only textual lyrics, no human participants were involved. Employing a qualitative descriptive design, the researcher transcribed the lyrics and conducted an in-depth analysis based on Leech’s (1974) theory of connotative meaning. This involved examining metaphorical phrases, emotionally expressive vocabulary, and culturally significant references. The analysis revealed that Swift consistently incorporates connotative language to express intricate emotions such as longing, heartbreak, empowerment, and nostalgia. Her lyrics also present ideas related to identity, personal development, romantic dynamics, and societal issues, deepening the interpretive experience for listeners. Ultimately, the study highlights how Swift’s strategic use of connotation enhances the emotional resonance and narrative strength of her music, offering meaningful insights into the interplay between language and meaning in popular song lyrics.

Abstract

This article, titled Semantic Aspects of Spoken Interaction in the English Department at Bali Dwipa University, investigates how meaning is constructed and conveyed through students’ everyday spoken communication. The main objective is to examine the semantic elements present in their conversations and to reveal the types of meaning relations that commonly appear in their speech. The data were obtained from spontaneous verbal exchanges among 20 undergraduate students (mean age = 20.8), all of whom were intermediate to advanced users of English and agreed to participate in the study. To gather the data, the researcher employed a non-participant observational technique, supported by audio recordings and brief observational notes. The recorded interactions were later transcribed and examined using a qualitative descriptive framework that emphasized semantic relations, including sense–reference distinctions and lexical meaning patterns. The analysis showed that the most prominent semantic relations used by the students were synonymy, hyponymy, and polysemy. Additionally, many utterances relied heavily on shared situational knowledge, highlighting the significant role of contextual reference and pragmatic reasoning in maintaining smooth interaction. Overall, the study demonstrates that students’ spoken discourse is influenced by both their choice of semantic forms and the context in which these forms are used. These insights imply that incorporating semantic-focused learning activities may help students strengthen their communicative abilities and deepen their awareness of how meaning functions in actual spoken situations. The outcomes of this research can also assist lecturers in developing instructional strategies that draw attention to semantic aspects of spoken language.
