Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to identify and analyze the types of language style used by characters in Elysium, a science-fiction movie directed by Neill Blomkamp. Methodology: This research employed a qualitative descriptive method. The data were obtained from the characters’ utterances in the movie and analyzed using Martin Joos’ theory of language styles, which includes frozen, formal, consultative, casual, and intimate styles. Main Findings: The study found that all five types of language style appear in the movie. Casual style was the most frequently used, especially in conversations between close characters. Frozen and formal styles were used in official or robotic interactions, while consultative styles appeared in semi-formal settings such as workplace discussions. Intimate style was used minimally due to the nature of the film’s plot. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study contributes to sociolinguistic and stylistic analysis by applying Joos’ language style theory to modern cinematic discourse. It highlights the role of context, relationship, and setting in influencing language variation in film.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to analyze the conformity of the content of two Indonesian language textbooks used in Grade VIII at MTsN 3 Indramayu with the 2013 curriculum, particularly in relation to the basic competencies outlined in the syllabus. Methodology: This study applied a descriptive qualitative method. The data sources were two Indonesian textbooks: Marbi Mahir Berbahasa Indonesia and Buku Bahasa Indonesia (published by Erlangga and Yhama Widya). Data were collected through document analysis, interviews, and observation, and evaluated using textbook assessment criteria such as academic integrity, detail, and coverage. Main Findings: The results indicate that the conformity between the textbooks and the 2013 curriculum syllabus was only 25% in terms of content. However, based on textbook quality criteria, both books met 80% of the standards, suggesting they remain usable as supplementary learning materials despite their partial misalignment with the curriculum. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study offers an in-depth evaluation of how current textbooks align with national curriculum standards, highlighting gaps in implementation. It advances existing knowledge by identifying specific areas where textbook content fails to meet curricular expectations, offering practical input for educators, authors, and policymakers.
