Abstract

This research aimed to find out the student's problems and practical needs in learning speaking. It employed qualitative methods that gathered responses from 40 out of 233 students in the second semester of the English Department at the University of Mataram. The questionnaire and interview were used to collect the data needed. The questionnaire consisted of 20 questions and was distributed using Google Forms, and the interview utilized 5 questions to elicit more detailed responses from the respondents. The collected data were analyzed systematically through the data reduction, display, and conclusion stages. The findings of this research showed that the students not only had linguistic problems, such as lack of pronunciation, grammatical knowledge, and vocabulary mastery, but they also faced psychological problems including fear of making mistakes, shyness of speaking in front of the class, anxiety, and not having enough confidence. Further, to improve their speaking skills, the students required more practice and exercises inside and outside the classroom with suitable speaking materials for their level. Additionally, focusing on activities rather than just materials and providing constructive feedback whenever they make mistakes will be crucial for their learning.

Abstract

This study aims to reveal the representation of the word “love” and gender constructs in the lyrics of Dewa 19 and Raisa songs using the Corpus-Assisted Discourse Studies (CADS) approach. This study is a mixed, qualitative-descriptive study supported by quantitative corpus analysis. A total of 30 song lyrics containing the word “love” were analyzed using the AntConc tool through three main stages, namely word frequency analysis, collocation, and concordance to identify lexical patterns and discourse orientation that emerged. The results of the analysis show that Dewa 19's lyrics tend to frame love through language that affirms emotional dominance and masculine roles that direct relationships. In contrast, Raisa's lyrics present love as an affective experience that is nurtured through reflection and emotional closeness, thus forming a more egalitarian representation. These findings confirm that popular music plays a role as a space for the formation of social meanings related to gender relations and roles, while also encouraging the need for more empowering representations in Indonesian cultural discourse.
