Abstract

The current research has adopted a qualitative approach to investigate the linguistic differences of Pakistani Standard English in contrast to British Standard English. We studied morphological, lexical, and hybrid characteristics of Pakistani Standard English. Besides, we investigated the linguistic features to prove the fact that cultural context determines the use of a language. Moreover, the findings of this research also support the fact that a language keeps evolving in different contexts leading to the development of different varieties of the language. However, the researchers have studied comparatively many varieties of Englishes, but this research investigates the distinguishing features of Pakistani Standard English employing secondary data from Dawn e-newspaper. Additionally, the researchers have also qualitatively codified the data into broader themes. The findings of this research will help readers in understanding the role of a cultural context in developing a new variety of a language. Consequently, they will be able to carry out further research in the field of World Englishes. Hence, this research is a systematic investigation of Pakistani Standard English and its differentiating features.

Abstract

Reading is therapeutic. This statement reflects reading as a technique to heal people’s mental problems and increase self-ability. Researches prove that reading is not only for entertainment, but also a tool to solve problem in people’s life. Meanwhile, the question comes up in the term of what kind of book suggested to read. In Luis Sepulveda’s The Old Man Who Read Love Stories, it is implied that reading fiction helps the old man, Antonio, to deal with his old age and loneliness. Reading a love story enlightens the old man’s mind and feelings. Life is overloaded by complex problems, such as war, poverty, gender problem, and nature destruction. People become sentimental to life; there is no happy ending story in life, only death. Meanwhile, Sepulveda sees fiction as the rescuer for a problematic life. This paper will discuss why people read fiction and the effects of reading fiction for someone’s life. The positive impacts of reading fiction for mental health and self-transformation are supposed to encourage people to start a new habit of reading for a better life.

Abstract

The main problem faced by EFL students in writing English texts includes the difficulties to produce a cohesive and coherent text that it seems necessary to show how the tools of Theme and Rheme can be used to help construct the students' good English writing. This study aimed to find out the types of thematic progression patterns in each clause of the recount texts written by students and the dominant pattern of thematic progression revealed from the texts. The research design of this study is a qualitative method which employed the study instrument of the students' recount texts at class IX of SMAN 2 Langsa, Aceh. A content analysis approach by using a Theme and Rheme framework generated from a theory of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) was used to analyze the thematic progression patterns on the students' recount texts, which included several steps: reading the student's texts, identifying the theme and rheme of every clause of the student's text, describing the thematic progression patterns of student's text and drawing the thematic progression pattern on student's text. The findings of the analysis indicated that there are three (3) thematic progression patterns found on the students' recount texts: the Theme Constant, the Theme Zig Zag Linear pattern and Theme Multiple patterns. The dominant type of thematic progression patterns constructed by the students into their recount texts was revealed mostly on 123 constant or reiteration patterns (76.8%), followed by zig-zag patterns of 35 times (21.8%)  and 9 times (1.25%) of multiple patterns.

Abstract

ABSTRACTOne of the pioneering novels in English literature, Robinson Crusoe, tells of the story of a man who was thirsty for an adventure, finally made his destiny in an uninhabited island. Written by Daniel Defoe, this novel was said to have similarities with one of the stories in Islamic culture, Hayy Ibn Yaqzan, written by Ibn Tufayl. Hayy was narrated living in an unknown jungle, had nature as his best friends seeking to find the true meaning of life. The purpose of this research is to explore the meanings of the two novels written by authors with different cultural backgrounds and to analyze the meanings based on five reading codes proposed by Roland Barthes in Semiotic analysis; hermeneutic code, proairetic code, semic code, symbolic code and cultural / referential code. Roland Barthes developed this application of structural narrative analysis by splitting the text into lexias and grouping them into the codes. At the end, it was found out that authorial background, cultural representation and religious views of each author are the aspects which made the work unique from one to another. Meanwhile, the similarities are found in some aspects; spirituality, survival and progress,  . Both authors present their own authenticity that it is difficult to justify whether Defoe took his reference from Hayy Ibn Yaqzan to create Robinson Crusoe.

Abstract

The taboo word is a word that is avoided because it is felt to have a 'strong' meaning, so that some types of taboo words cannot just be spoken by anyone or anywhere. To overcome this, one usually chooses to use other words that are safer. This paper aims to determine the types of taboo words in the film “Blindspotting” based on Ronald Wardhaugh’s theory which divides them into several categories, namely: sex, death, excreation, bodily functions, religious matters, politics, mother-in-law, animals, and cultural matter, as well as the function of each taboo word in the film which he divides it into four functions, such as: showing contempt, drawing attention, being provocative or aggressive, and mocking authority. The method used to analyze this film is a qualitative descriptive method where the researcher describes, analyzes, and discusses the data in the film as it is in narrative form. The results showed that there are seven categories of taboo words in the film, included: sex, death, excreation, bodily functions, religious matters, animals, and cultural matter. The sex and bodily function are the most used category in the film, while the cultural matters is the least used. Of the four functions of Ronald Wardhaugh, All of them are found in the film.
