Abstract

This research explores the role of syntax in English language learning, particularly for non-native speakers. Using a literature review method, 12 academic journals published between 2019-2024 were reviewed through Google Scholar and ResearchGate, with 3 meeting the selection criteria. The study analyzes sentence structures, including simple and complex patterns, idioms, and their cultural connections. Syntax involves elements like subjects, predicates, objects, clauses, and phrases, and how these elements work together to form meaning. The research shows that mastering syntax improves sentence construction, enhances communication, and helps learners navigate English’s complexity. It also highlights the importance of syntax in understanding idioms and complex sentence structures in both formal and informal contexts. Mastery of syntax is crucial for effective language learning and supports the development of comprehensive language skills.

Abstract

This study examines how causative structures encode meaning in English and Indonesian through a qualitative contrastive analysis. It focuses on differences in agentivity, affectedness, and event structure using authentic written texts from both languages. The findings show that English tends to express causation through explicit and segmented constructions that foreground responsibility, while Indonesian often relies on integrated morphological forms that compress cause and effect. These differences lead to shifts in interpretation and challenges for Indonesian learners of English, particularly in academic writing. The study highlights the importance of meaning based contrastive analysis for understanding cross linguistic variation and improving EFL instruction.
