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 was aimed to know speaking problems faced by EFL learners in individual presentation at 4th semester English department students of UIN Walisongo Semarang. The method used in this study was qualitative method with descriptive approach. The data was collected from all members of PBI-4C. Methodology: The data were gathered through in-depth interview, observation and documentation. The results of the study were shown in three factors; they are linguistic knowledge point of view (vocabularies, pronunciation, and grammar), psychological point of view (lack of confidence, shyness, nervous, fear of mistake, and confuse) and non-linguistic knowledge (lack of preparation, lack of motivation and teaching vocabulary). Main Findings: The findings suggest that the teacher should pay attention more to students’ awareness for speaking ability, moreover, it is in presentation skill which is clearly and understandable. Finally, English speaking problems in this university will decrease and students are able to speak up in front of public and also have better performance in speaking in the future. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study offers a fresh perspective by focusing specifically on the speaking problems encountered by EFL learners during individual presentations, a context that demands both linguistic competence and performance skills. Unlike general speaking studies, it highlights real-time anxiety, organization, and fluency issues, thus advancing existing knowledge by linking language proficiency with presentation-specific challenges in academic settings.
