Abstract

Ambiguity in language often arises when meaning depends on contextual interpretation, particularly in the use of non-literal expressions such as idioms, metaphors, irony, and sarcasm. This phenomenon can hinder communication, especially among non-native speakers who may lack sufficient linguistic or cultural background to interpret intended meanings accurately. This study aims to analyze how pragmatic ambiguity operates and the role of context in resolving it. Using a literature review method, the study synthesizes findings from linguistic research published in the last decade. The results indicate that pragmatic ambiguity frequently occurs due to limited contextual cues, tone, and shared background knowledge. Three types of context linguistic, situational, and cultural were found to be crucial in disambiguation processes. While ambiguity may cause misunderstanding, it can also be used strategically to convey nuanced meaning, humor, and indirectness. The study concludes that strengthening pragmatic competence is essential for improving communicative effectiveness.

Abstract

This research examines the process of internalizing Pancasila values through Civics Education (PKn) as an instrument for cultivating students' leadership habitus at SMA Negeri 1 Siantar. The primary focus of this study is to explore how ideological values are transformed into daily behavior through pedagogical structures and school policies. Employing a descriptive-analytical qualitative approach, data were gathered through participatory observation, in-depth interviews with the principal, teachers, and students, as well as documentation studies. Data analysis was conducted circularly to capture the underlying meanings within instructional and organizational practices. The research findings indicate that the internalization of Pancasila values at this school transcends mere cognitive transmission; rather, it is achieved through the implementation of deep learning strategies in Civics Education, which are integrated into the practical actions of the Kurikulum Merdeka (Independent Curriculum). This process is reinforced by the principal's transformative leadership, which creates an ecosystem of value discipline through routine flag ceremonies and extracurricular activities (Paskibra, Scouts, Rohis, and KSK). These activities are proven to construct norms of mutual cooperation (gotong royong) and tolerance as a collective identity for the students. This study concludes that the formation of a Pancasila-based leadership habitus is highly dependent on the consistency between exemplary school leadership and the availability of spaces for students' self-actualization in negotiating diversity.
