Abstract

The proliferation of social media has significantly influenced the use of British slang among young people, regardless of their educational background. This study examines how social media facilitates the rapid spread of slang, making it a prevalent trend among teenagers. The method used is descriptive qualitative in the form of interviews where 2 participants from different backgrounds are taken. the first participant is someone who is an English student, while the second participant is an ordinary person who has no basic English. The findings showed that, although both participants recognized common acronyms such as "btw," "otw," "lol," "omg," and "fyp," their understanding and use of slang differed. The study shows that English slang is used not only on social media but also in residences, schools and colleges. People with an English background are considered knowledgeable, while others may be considered too influenced by Western styles. Despite these differences, British slang is still an important part of contemporary linguistic usage, valued for its inclusiveness and flexibility

Abstract

This research introduces a practical and innovative model for integrating religious moderation values into English Language Teaching activities. Recognizing the multicultural and diverse nature of language learners, this model aims to bridge the gap between language instruction and the incorporation of religious perspectives, fostering a more inclusive and culturally sensitive language learning environment. Phenomenological research used by the researchers as a research design. Grounded in the principles of CLT, the proposed model provides a framework for designing activities for teaching English that seamlessly integrate religious values, encouraging learners to engage in meaningful and contextually relevant language use. The findings showed that the English lecturers have already instilled the values of religious moderation using various ways. The model of lesson plans highlights the significance of including essential social themes like radicalism and tolerance into English lessons plans for university students. It is conducted by employing various multimedia resources, collaborative activities, and reflective assignments to foster dynamic and interactive learning environments that not only increase language proficiency but also encourage critical thinking skills and cultural sensitivity.
