Abstract

This study investigates how senior high school students conceptualize emotions through metaphorical expressions from a cognitive linguistic perspective. Drawing on Conceptual Metaphor Theory, the study examines how abstract emotional experiences are structured through embodied and spatial source domains. The data were collected from 11 senior high school students using a written elicitation task covering six emotion categories: anger, sadness, fear, anxiety, happiness, and relief. Metaphorical expressions were identified using the Metaphor Identification Procedure (MIP). The findings reveal that students consistently employ a limited set of image schemas to conceptualize emotions, including CONTAINER, UPDOWN orientation, BALANCE, and PATH/MOTION. Anger and anxiety are frequently framed through containment and pressure, sadness through downward spatial orientation, happiness through upward movement or lightness, and relief through movement toward exit or release. These patterns demonstrate that adolescents emotional language is systematically grounded in bodily experience rather than expressed through purely literal terms. This study contributes to emotionmetaphor research by providing empirical evidence from adolescents everyday language, a population that remains underrepresented in previous studies, and highlights the relevance of embodied metaphor for emotional literacy and language education in school contexts.

Abstract

This study investigates the forms of verbal humor produced by elementary school students at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Swasta (MIS) Syababul Qorib Perbaungan, Indonesia. Data were collected through participatory observation, interviews, and audio-visual documentation of students’ verbal interaction during formal learning activities and informal peer communication. The analysis was conducted by examining humorous utterances through the six Knowledge Resources of GTVH: Script Opposition, Logical Mechanism, Situation, Target, Narrative Strategy, and Language. The findings reveal that students consistently produce structured forms of verbal humor, including riddle-based humor, metaphorical humor related to learning content, light peer-directed teasing, situational humor, and media-influenced digital humor. These forms emerged from recurring configurations of script opposition and logical mechanisms adapted to age-appropriate language and classroom contexts. This study contributes to applied linguistic research on child humor and extends the application of GTVH to naturally occurring discourse in Indonesian Islamic elementary school settings.

Abstract

This training was held at Universitas Harapan Medan which is located at Jl. Imam Bonjol No. 35 Medan. Based on the results of observations carried out by the service team, several problems faced by students at the university were obtained, especially those related to English. Most of them still don't dare to communicate in English and are still passive when there are activities or competitions held by the campus, such as English debate competitions. English language experts consider English Debate to be very effective when applied to improve speaking. It is hoped that students will be more enthusiastic about participating in English debate training if it is combined with video blog (vlog) media. Video media is a type of audio-visual media. This media can increase students' interest in learning because students can listen and see pictures. Service activities are carried out in three stages. The first stage is the preparation stage. In this stage, the service team carries out a preliminary survey to see the conditions in partners and also look for problems faced by students, especially in terms of English. The next stage is the stage of implementing community service activities. The final stage is the evaluation stage. In this stage, evaluation is carried out on the results achieved by the training participants. Further input and improvements can be made at this stage. Evaluation is provided by collecting data obtained from training activities.

Abstract

Guru memiliki peran penting dalam menciptakan pembelajaran yang efektif, inovatif, dan berpusat pada peserta didik. Hasil observasi di SMA Sains Tahfidz Qur'an Al-Ammar Deli Serdang menunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran masih didominasi metode ceramah sehingga partisipasi peserta didik belum optimal. Selain itu, guru belum memiliki keterampilan yang memadai dalam menerapkan humor edukatif yang selaras dengan nilai-nilai Islam. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan kompetensi pedagogik guru melalui pelatihan humor edukatif Islami. Metode yang digunakan meliputi identifikasi kebutuhan, pelatihan, praktik implementasi, pendampingan, serta evaluasi menggunakan pre-test dan post-test. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan kompetensi guru pada seluruh aspek, yaitu pemahaman konsep humor edukatif meningkat dari 64 menjadi 86, etika humor Islami dari 68 menjadi 89, strategi pembelajaran dari 62 menjadi 84, dan kepercayaan diri mengajar dari 65 menjadi 85. Sebanyak delapan dari sembilan guru berhasil menerapkan humor edukatif Islami dalam pembelajaran, 87% peserta didik menyatakan pembelajaran menjadi lebih menyenangkan, penggunaan modul mencapai 89%, dan tingkat kepuasan mitra sebesar 93%. Program ini berhasil meningkatkan kompetensi pedagogik guru, memperbaiki kualitas pembelajaran, serta menghasilkan modul humor edukatif Islami yang dapat dimanfaatkan secara berkelanjutan.

Abstract

This study investigates the types and functions of illocutionary acts in the movie script A Man Called Otto (2022), directed by Marc Forster. Using a descriptive qualitative method, the research analyzes all utterances produced by the main character, Otto Anderson, based on Searle’s (1979) classification of speech acts. The objectives are to identify the types of illocutionary acts and explain their functions within the conversational context of the movie. The findings reveal 371 illocutionary acts classified into five categories: representative (35.58%), directive (28.84%), expressive (24.53%), commissive (9.43%), and declarative (1.62%). Among the 29 identified functions, asking (10.24%), expressing anger (9.97%), and explaining (7.82%) are the most frequent. The results indicate that Otto primarily uses language to express beliefs, convey information, and communicate emotional states. The predominance of representative and expressive acts reflects his direct yet emotionally complex personality and illustrates his gradual character development throughout the story. This study demonstrates the applicability of Searle’s speech act theory in analyzing movie scripts and contributes to pragmatic studies of cinematic discourse.
