Abstract

Emotions matter in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning because they shape how students participate, persist, and respond to classroom demands. Although emotion regulation has received growing attention in language education, little is known about how students in Indonesian Islamic schools describe and manage their emotions in everyday English lessons. This gap is important. When models developed mainly in Western psychological traditions are applied without cultural reading, students’ silence, hesitation, or restraint can easily be mistaken for low motivation or weak ability. In an Islamic-Indonesian school context, the same responses may also be connected with patience, modesty, face-saving, respect for others, or the wish to keep classroom harmony. Using a qualitative phenomenological design, this study explored the emotional experiences and emotion regulation strategies of 67 students from two Islamic high schools in East Kalimantan, Indonesia. Data were gathered through open-ended questionnaires and two focus group discussions involving 20 selected students, and were analysed thematically. The findings show three intertwined emotional patterns: enjoyment, confidence, and motivation; anxiety, confusion, boredom, and fear of making mistakes; and fluctuating or neutral emotional states. Students most often used cognitive reappraisal (n = 25) and expressive suppression (n = 13), but they also reported more practical strategies, including deep breathing, peer talk, goal reminders, resting, drawing, asking questions, and silent self-composure. These findings suggest that emotion regulation in Islamic EFL classrooms is not only an individual cognitive process. It is also embodied, social, and shaped by local cultural expectations. The study therefore calls for EFL classrooms where teachers read students’ silence and hesitation carefully, reduce the social risk of error, and support emotional well-being through culturally responsive pedagogy.

Abstract

Many languages worldwide are currently endangered. Many linguists argue that endangered languages can be preserved through revitalisation and language documentation. Others contend that languages used by minority communities will inevitably disappear and be replaced by those of majority communities. This article focuses on investigating and describing the condition of the Sea Tribe language through dialectological and sociocultural perspectives among the Duano Sea Tribe in Sabak and Tungkal. This research employs a qualitative approach, using interviews, recordings, and documentation for data collection. The findings indicate that not only language revitalisation and documentation, but also sociocultural activities, can reduce the risk of language endangerment. This article argues that sociocultural activities play a significant role in reducing the vulnerability of endangered languages. This is evident in the sociocultural domain of knowledge systems, where, although the Duano language is not used in schools in both areas, it continues to be used at home. Furthermore, systems of material culture and technology are more present in Sabak but are rare in Tungkal. This study makes an empirical contribution by demonstrating that the failure to revitalise a language through sociocultural activities may lead to language death.
