Abstract

This study aims to analyze the denotative and connotative meanings embedded in common English proverbs through a semiotic perspective. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative approach with a library research design, the data were collected from various credible sources, including scholarly journals, proverb dictionaries, and relevant reference books. The analysis is grounded in Roland Barthes’ two-tiered model of signification, which differentiates between denotation (literal meaning) and connotation (implied or symbolic meaning). The findings demonstrate that English proverbs are not merely linguistic expressions, but also cultural artifacts that convey deeply rooted moral, social, and philosophical values. Through semiotic analysis, these layered meanings can be uncovered, revealing how proverbs function as representations of collective cultural consciousness. This research thus affirms that proverbs serve as both communicative tools and vessels of cultural identity.

Abstract

Most research on directive speech acts and power relations focuses on institutional hierarchies, such as teacher–student or employer–employee interactions. However, attention to how power is constructed in the context of informational asymmetry—specifically where no legitimate social authority exists—remains relatively limited. This study fills this gap by analyzing the film Sore: Istri dari Masa Depan (2025), which presents a unique pragmatic situation where a stranger establishes dominance based solely on future knowledge. Using a descriptive qualitative design, this research integrates Searle Speech Act Theory and Fairclough Critical Discourse Analysis. The findings indicate that directive speech acts are the most dominant linguistic feature, used to regulate the interlocutor's bodily habits. The analysis demonstrates that the protagonist applies specific constraints on content to negate or override the interlocutor's agency. The study concludes that, in the absence of formal social status, authority is discursively constructed through epistemic advantage (knowledge superiority), where linguistic coercion gains legitimacy through the urgency of survival. Thus, this research contributes to the pragmatic understanding of power dynamics in high-stakes, non-institutional conflicts.

Abstract

This research aimed to find out the effect of the Auditory, Intellectually, and Repetition (AIR) Model integrated with the CAKE Application on students’ listening comprehension at grade eleven of SMA Negeri 4 Pematang Siantar. This research used a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design involving 72 students divided into an experimental class and a control class. The findings showed that the experimental class achieved better improvement than the control class. The result of the t-test showed that the t-observed value (4.37) was higher than the t-table value (2.00). Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (Hₐ) was accepted, indicating that the AIR Model integrated with the CAKE Application had a significant effect on students’ listening comprehension.
