Abstract

This study investigates the types and pragmatic functions of deixis in One Direction’s song “Night Changes.”Using a qualitative analysis content method, the research applies Levinson’s (1983) typology of person, time, place, discourse, and social deixis. The data were collected from the official lyrics and analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s (1994) model of data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. A total of 39 deictic expressions were identified, consisting of person deixis (22 instances), time deixis (8), place deixis (4), discourse deixis (3), and social deixis (2). The findings show that person deixis is the most frequent, highlighting the narrative perspective and interpersonal involvement between the singer and the listener, while social deixis is the least frequent, reflecting the informal tone of the lyrics. This study demonstrates how deixis constructs narrative flow and emotional engagement in pop lyrics, with practical use in EFL classrooms and translation studies.

Abstract

Despite the importance of speaking skills in communicative English as a Foreign Language (EFL) pedagogy, many undergraduate EFL learners remain silent in speaking courses. Existing research has largely focused on silence among EFL learners in other cultural contexts, leaving a gap in understanding the sociocultural, institutional, and linguistic factors influencing Indonesian university students. This qualitative study employs narrative inquiry to explore the lived experiences of silent undergraduate EFL learners in speaking classes, allowing participants to share personal stories, emotions, and reflections on their silence. Guided by Krashen’s Second Language Acquisition theories and Saville-Troike’s ethnographic framework, the research investigates both the individual and contextual factors of silence. The findings show that silence is influenced by university pedagogical shock, engaging in a silent period and hindered by affective filters, as well as contextual factors such as hierarchical classroom dynamics, authoritarian teaching styles, group-influenced silence, disengagement due to uninteresting topics, and showing respect. This research highlights the need for more supportive and interactive speaking environments in EFL speaking classes and offers practical suggestions for teachers to help students participate more actively.
