It is even used in other forms of meme such as Bible, books, and a musical theater. The fact that the English is unconventional but makes the meme viral is what inspires this study. Henceforth, this study aims to find reasons how such unconventional English syntax strengthen the virality of LOLcat meme.

Abstract

This article concerns on the use of second person pronouns thou and you in Shakespeare’s Tragedy of Hamlet and Macbeth. Throughout the history of English language, second person pronouns have undergone many changes until they become only one form you. In the earlier period, the distinction between thou and ye was in a matter of the number of people being addressed. However, in early modern English, the use of second person pronouns did not depend only on the number of people, but also on the power and solidarity relations. Dealing with its changes, the use of second person pronouns thou and you in Shakespeare’s plays is interpreted in this article. Results show that Shakespeare’s plays provide a different view of the use of these pronominal forms. Nevertheless, Shakespeare actually follows the rule of pronominal forms dictated by society, yet some cases show inconsistency. The inconsistency refers to the switching between thou and you. It indicates that something emotionally happens among the characters which can be observed through their conversations.

Abstract

Possessing native-like pronunciation is one of the main goals that non-native speakers of English would like to accomplish. Besides the ability to pronounce English sounds correctly, using the proper English word stress also plays an important role in achieving that goal.This paper first specifies the nature of word stress in English and its contribution on successful English language learning. Secondly, it addresses the problems that are commonly encountered by the Indonesian learners in using correct word stress in their speech. Finally, it also proposes some ways that English learners can use to learn English word stress better. Hopefully these proposed ways will be able to help the learners to speak in English more fluently with not only accurate pronunciation but also with correct word stress.

Abstract

This research aims to measure the mastery of prepositions for and to among the sixth semester students at English Letters Department of Sanata Dharma University. The researcher is also eager to identify whether or not the students find difficulties to decide which prepositions (for or to) they should use in making a correct sentence, especially in translating the Indonesian prepositions untuk, kepada, ke, buat and bagi into English. This will be related to certain conditions in which the students’ first language (mother tongue) influences their second language learning. Thus, it is also very important to find out whether or not the students are influenced by their first language (Indonesian) in second language (English) learning process. Keywords: prepositions, errors, mastery, accuracy

Abstract

Gender relation in society is complex and fluid. However, the complexity and fluidity are oversimplified by patriarchal systems in the form of binary oppositions. David Lehman’s “When a Woman Loves a Man” is a poem portraying the complexity and fluidity of gender relation. Through several levels of reading the poem, gender relations between woman and man are proven to be dynamic, yet it is still dominated by patriarchal systems. This research attempts to problematize de Beauvoir’s myth of woman which represents gender relation between woman and man in binary oppositions. This research applies deconstructive method. The deconstructive method includes close reading and deconstructive reading. It is applied to problematize de Beauvoir’s myth of woman through Lehman’s “When a Woman Loves a Man”. The first level of reading (close reading) in Lehman’s “When a Woman Loves a Man” shows that the findings on the form, diction, word order, point of view, and tone versus the findings on metaphors, imagery, symbols, and allusions are contradictory. The second level of reading (explication) shows that Lehman’s “When a Woman Loves a Man” depicts some gender relation. Those are woman- man relation in speaking, never being in the same domain, performing different roles in the same domain, communicating, viewing gender relation, fighting, and considering night and sleep. The last level of reading is deconstructive reading. The first level of deconstructive reading questions the “objectivity” of portraying woman-man relation. The second level reveals the discontinuity of de Beauvoir’s myth of woman to construct the gender relation in the poem in binary oppositions. The universalizing context and the absence of woman’s voice in de Beauvoir’s myth of woman reveal the question of the “objectivity” of the myth and how even though de Beauvoir’s myth of woman stereotypes both genders unequally, woman remains the marginalized one. Keywords: myth of woman, gender relation, deconstructive reading.

Abstract

It has already been understood that Great Vowel Shift (GVS) takes the major differences between the pronunciation in Middle English and Modern English. GVS is a change in pronunciation of vowel sounds in English language. The evidence of this change can be attained through written texts. It can be found by comparing Geoffrey Chaucer’s literary works to William Shakespeare’s works to see the differences. However, in this paper I focused only on analyzing the GVS in Geoffrey Chaucer’s poem entitled The house of Fame. The purpose of this study is to find out what kind of sound shift appears in The House of Fame and to explain in what phonological environment the vowel shift takes place. The result shows that there are seven kinds of sound shifts found in the poem. Those are [e:]>[i:], [i:]>[aɪ], [ɔ:]>[o:], [ɛ:]>[e:], [a:] > [ɛ:] > [eɪ], [o:] > [u:], and [u:] > [au]. Besides, from this study, it can be concluded that there are three kinds of phonological environments employed in vowel shift.Keywords: Great Vowel Shift, Geoffrey Chaucer

Abstract

This article attempts to map out the development of language and gender research and studies from its early stage to recent trend. The early language and gender research is inclined to essentialist view; and it subsequently changes its direction into a more non-essentialist perspective. Both essentialist and non-essentialist perspectives on language and gender research are not necessarily affiliated with feminist linguistics. Their research findings mostly conclude that women’s language is inferior and women are not capable users of language. In a response to such “sexist” findings, various feminist scholars across the disciplines venture to rethink and redefine gender and language. Among many different approaches that they employ are two notable views, namely, the “dominance” and “difference” perspectives. One views man-woman differences in language use as a reflection of their power relation: the dominant and the subordinate. Meanwhile, the other sees this different linguistic use as a result of the different ‘sub-cultures’ of their social environment (Coates, 2000: 413 and also Litosseliti, 2006:27). This shift toward a critical feminist linguistics is in fact informed by the current theories in critical thinking and feminist perspectives.Keywords: language, gender, feminist perspective

Abstract

“The Problem”, a poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson, expresses Emerson’s preoccupation with the problem of vocation. It is about Emerson’s dilemma of his admiration toward church leaders despite his refusal to remain within their ranks. “The Problem” is analyzed from its diction -which consists of ecclesiastical words- to create images that can help the readers understand the poem. This study covers two main problems. The first is dedicated to find the meaning of the ecclesiastical words- especially those that are related to a minister- in “The Problem” and the second is devoted to find the images created from the ecclesiastical meanings in the previous problem.The results of this analysis show that in “The Problem” there are twelve expressions containing ecclesiastical meanings. The ecclesiastical meaning of a word is sometimes different from the general meaning. The ecclesiastical meaning is more specific than the general meaning. The second finding is that the ecclesiastical meanings can result in the perception of six images. The first is about the poet’s liking of the job of a minister and its burdens as well. The second shows that the poet would be a minister, with all of its burdens, even though he cannot see a minister’s faith yet. The third is about the poet’s hesitance to be a minister. The fourth is that the Church with its host, chanting choir, and priest Christianize the people. The fifth is about the Bible and the prophets that teach about God and salvation. The sixth is about the poet’s admiration toward Chrysostom, Augustine, and Taylor and also the reason why he chose to leave the ministry.Keywords: ecclesiastical words, images

Abstract

Resyllabification happens when the syllable structure of the source language differ from that of the recipient language. This article aims at observing how Indonesian words borrowed by English language are resyllabified in order to match with the syllable structures of English language as the recipient language. Results show that the resyllabification of English loanwords can be analyzed by applying deletion and addition rule. The result of deletion rule is the reduced number of syllable of loanwords (such as in cutch, cockatoo, cajeput, kris, prau, tombac, and trepan), while addition rule results on the addition of the number of syllable (such as in catechu, caladium, mangosteen, and pandanus). Keywords: resyllabification, borrowing, source language, recipient language

Abstract

This study focuses on the suffixes {–er} and {-an} because these suffixes are the most commonly used suffixes in daily life and thus really productive. There are three problems formulated for this topic: (1) What are the characteristics of stems receiving suffixes {–er} and {-an}? (2) What meanings are introduced by suffixes {–er} and {–an}? (3) What are the distributions of the allomorphs of suffixes {–er} and {-an}? The data of this study are morphemes and affixes. Hornby’s Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary (year of 2000) is used. Finally, the present researcher found that the suffixes {–er} and {an} are attached to certain verbs, adjectives, and nouns. The suffix {-an} are not attached to verbs. The suffix {-er} is mostly attached to transitive verbs to create three possibilities of meaning. There is only one meaning of the suffix {–er} when it is attached to an adjective, and eight meanings of the suffix {–er} when it is attached to certain nouns. For suffix {-an}, there are three meanings when it is attached to adjectives and five meanings when it is attached to nouns. There are two meanings of the suffix {-an} when it is attached to nouns. The allomorph of the suffix {-er} are –or, -eer /ɪər/, and –ier /ɪər/, while the allomorphs of the suffix {-an} are –ian /ʃn/, -ian /ɪən/, and –ean /ɪən/. Keywords: morpheme, derivational suffixes, an agentive nominalization, stem, allomorph
