This research delves into the intricate dynamics of translating proverbs, aiming to ensure that the essence of the source language is accurately conveyed in the target language. Translating proverbs presents unique challenges due to the inherent cultural and contextual nuances embedded within them. To address this, employing culturally equivalent strategies becomes crucial in faithfully representing the intended meaning. The process of translating through culture is not merely a mechanical task; it serves as a bridge fostering a profound understanding between different cultures. This bridge facilitates the effective communication of proverbial messages in the target language, exemplified by the proverb "Qabla ar-rima tumlau al-kanain." A literal translation fails to capture its essence, but a cultural approach reveals its Indonesian equivalent: "sedia paying sebelum hujan." This stark contrast underscores the necessity of cultural adaptation to convey the intended message accurately. This qualitative study relies on data sourced from various references, such as "Al-Balaghah Al-Wadhihah" and "Al-Amtsal Al-Arabiyyah Wa Al-Amtsal Al-Amiyah: Muqaranah Dalaliyah" by Al-hamzawi. Proverbs are extracted, and the research applies content analysis and a cultural adaptation approach. The fusion of Arabic proverbs with Indonesian counterparts from works like Dipo Udi's "Kumpulan Peribahasa Indonesia" and the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture's "500 Pepatah" allows for a comprehensive analysis. The findings affirm that cultural adaptation effectively conveys proverbial messages. This adaptation involves substituting proverbs with culturally relevant expressions, ensuring a seamless integration into the cultural context of the target language. Ultimately, this research sheds light on the significance of cultural sensitivity in translating proverbs for a more nuanced and accurate representation of their intended meanings.

Blended learning using Google Classroom is a face-to-face and online learning method that utilizes the Google Classroom platform to connect student and teacher interactions outside the classroom. This study aims to determine the impact of blended learning implementation using Google Classroom on writing skills. The problem in developing writing skills based on blended learning to improve the competency of Madrasah Aliyah students can be formulated as follows: due to limited classroom time, many students experience difficulties understanding Arabic language materials, including writing skills. This can be caused by teaching methods that are less engaging and less relevant to their needs. This study uses a quantitative method with an experimental research type. This study involved 30 eleventh-grade students at Madrasah aliyah students 3 Serang. Data collection was conducted through pre- and post-tests, as well as a questionnaire. The questionnaire assessed five aspects: Google Classroom usage, learning interaction, technology accessibility, comfort and satisfaction, and the impact of blended learning. The results of output pairs 1 and 2 obtained a significance value (2-tailed) of 0.000, and based on the independent sample t-test, a significance value (2-tailed) of 0.000 was obtained in the variance similarity section for homogeneous data. This study proves that the implementation of the blended learning method can significantly improve the learning process of Arabic writing skills.

Content-Based Instruction learning is an approach that integrates language learning with materials or topics that are relevant to students’ daily lives. At SMAN 1 Pandeglang, students’ mastery of Arabic vocabulary is still considered less effective because the learning process still uses conventional methods, causing students’ learning interest to be relatively low. This study aims to determine the effect of using the Content-Based Instruction method on students’ Arabic vocabulary mastery. The research employed a quantitative method with a true experimental design, specifically a pretest–posttest control group design. The subjects of this study consisted of 50 students divided into two classes, namely the experimental class and the control class. Data collection techniques were carried out through tests (pretest and posttest) and questionnaires covering five aspects: vocabulary application, vocabulary mastery, ease of understanding the material, participation, and students’ perceptions of the learning process. The results of the study indicate that the use of the Content-Based Instruction method has a significant effect on improving students’ Arabic vocabulary mastery. Therefore, the Content-Based Instruction method can be used as an alternative learning approach that is more effective than conventional methods.

This study critically examines the philological and historical-comparative linguistic approaches developed by Western orientalists in analyzing the Qur'anic lexicon and their implications for the doctrine of the authenticity and purity of the language of revelation in Islam. It also explores Muslim scholars' responses to claims of foreign language influence in the lexical construction of the sacred text. Starting from the assumption that the Qur'an contains elements of Aramaic, Hebrew, Syriac, and Ethiopic languages, orientalists such as Theodor Nöodeke, Abraham Geiger, Arthur Jeffery, and Christoph Luxenberg attempted to interpret the Qur'anic text as an evolutive product of pre-Islamic Arabic culture and history. This approach, despite its contribution to the field of language history, has been criticized by Muslim scholars for ignoring the theological dimension and sacredness of the Qur'an as divine revelation. Using a qualitative method and a desk study approach, this research analyzes key works from both orientalists and Muslim scholars. The results show that Western philological approaches to the Qur'an are not scientifically neutral but contain historical-critical assumptions that often contradict the normative-transcendental approach in the Islamic tradition. In response, contemporary Muslim scholars have developed an integrative approach that balances linguistic studies with contextual interpretation and emphasizes the importance of taking into account the dynamics of classical Arabic, Qur'anic rhetorical structures, and the context of revelation. As such, this study affirms the importance of a multidisciplinary and dialogical approach in understanding the complexity of Qur'anic vocabulary in order to avoid methodological reductionism and maintain the epistemic integrity of the revealed text.

The purpose of this study is to describe that the Government of Kuwait, through its official social media, uses a lot of euphemistic and dysphemic language styles in conveying information in the era of the Covid-19 pandemic. This study uses a qualitative approach with content analysis to understand the symbolic messages contained in documents, paintings, dances, songs, literary works, and others as unstructured data. The data collection technique used is the observation and note-taking technique. Listening in the context of this study means reading, which is then recorded to document the data obtained. The data analysis technique used is the equivalent referential technique to find out grammatical units such as euphemisms and dysphemisms, while to analyze the background of the use of euphemisms and dysphemisms, pragmatic equivalent analysis is used. Based on the results of an analysis of data obtained from the official social media of the Ministry of Health of Kuwait, many euphemistic and dysphemistic forms were found in conveying information regarding the latest matters and developments regarding Covid-19 in the country of Kuwait. It is used for specific purposes. The purpose of using euphemistic forms is to avoid mentioning negative reality, which aims to minimize the harmful effects of utterances that seem scary, worrying, make noise, offend, hurt, disrespect, or violate social norms. Euphemistic forms also aim to evoke an optimistic attitude toward residents in dealing with the coronavirus pandemic. The use of the dysphemistic form used by the Kuwaiti Ministry of Health in presenting information about matters related to Covid-19 in that country is aimed at scaring, showing annoyance, and giving warnings so that they are even more vigilant in dealing with the Covid 19 pandemic.
