Abstract

This study examines the influence of technology on children's vocabulary development, focusing on a case study of a three-year-old boy named Rizky. Despite Rizky's enthusiasm for learning through YouTube videos, his vocabulary was initially limited to words from the videos. His mother, Ibu Maya, creatively intervened by incorporating interactive play, real-world interactions, and reading sessions to expand his vocabulary. This approach demonstrates the necessity of balancing digital media with traditional learning methods and highlights the role of parental involvement. Theoretical frameworks such as Dual Coding Theory and Social Learning Theory provide insights into the effectiveness of this combined approach.

Abstract

This study explores the use of figurative language in Melanie Martinez's songs "Dollhouse" and "Mrs. Potato Head," highlighting how these linguistic elements contribute to the thematic and emotional depth of the lyrics. Through a detailed analysis, the research identifies and interprets various figures of speech, including metaphors, similes, and personifications, which Martinez employs to address complex themes such as family dynamics, societal pressures, and self-image. The findings reveal that figurative language in "Dollhouse" vividly portrays the façade of a seemingly perfect family life, while "Mrs. Potato Head" uses similar techniques to critique beauty standards and the pursuit of physical perfection. By examining the intricate use of figurative language in these songs, the study underscores Martinez's ability to convey powerful messages and evoke emotional responses, enhancing listeners' engagement and understanding of the underlying issues. This analysis not only contributes to the appreciation of Martinez's lyrical artistry but also provides insights into the broader implications of figurative language in contemporary music.
