Abstract

This study aims to investigate the discourse structure of refusal to requests in interactions among Japanese female university students, examining the roles adopted and assigned by speakers, the phases of refusal discourse, and the organization of moves. This qualitative case study research involves 20 pairs of female participants from a public university in Kanazawa, Japan. The data are obtained through video-recorded role-play exchanges based on provided scenarios. The findings reveal that refusals are not expressed as direct rejections but rather emerge through a staged, interactionally negotiated process characterized by indirectness, mitigation, and sensitivity to interpersonal relationships. Speakers collaboratively construct refusals through gradual shifts in speech functions and role relations, often employing incongruent realizations in which linguistic forms diverge from their intended communicative functions. These patterns enable participants to manage face-threatening acts while preserving social harmony. The study underscores the role of discourse-semantic resources and politeness strategies in shaping refusal practices, offering broader implications for cross-cultural communication, pragmatics, and the teaching of Japanese as a foreign language, particularly in developing learners’ awareness of culturally appropriate interactional norms.

Abstract

This article analyzes the strategic role of the Alipay platform in supporting China's soft diplomacy through a case study of how foreign tourists represent Chengdu's culinary culture. The formulation of the problem in these studies on the representation of culinary culture has been widely conducted in various media, but few have highlighted the role of foreign tourists as carriers of local cultural meaning, particularly on the Alipay platform. This study examines in depth how video content uploaded by foreign tourists on the Alipay platform serves as a representational space for Chengdu's culinary identity while simultaneously positioning these tourists as cultural intermediaries in cyberspace. This study uses a qualitative, descriptive-interpretive approach. This type of research is qualitative content analysis. Data from this study includes videos, captions, and comment interactions taken directly from the accounts of three creators on the Alipay platform. The study's findings demonstrate that foreign tourists' use of the Alipay platform goes beyond facilitating transactions and has transformed into a significant tool for grassroots diplomacy. This study finds that the Alipay platform functions as a strategic medium in China's soft diplomacy by mediating the representation of Chengdu's culinary culture through video content from foreign tourists

Abstract

Accent anxiety can hinder English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students’ public speaking performance, particularly when learners anticipate negative judgment, social exclusion, or reduced intelligibility. This study compared accent anxiety across three speaking contexts, face-to-face, online, and virtual, among 183 undergraduates from three universities in Makassar, Indonesia. Using a quantitative between-subjects design, participants were randomly assigned to one context and completed an oral reading task followed by the Accent Anxiety Scale (AAS). Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses supported the three-dimensional structure of the scale, consisting of fear of negative evaluation, fear of intergroup rejection, and intelligibility concerns. Reliability coefficients for the total scale and subscales were satisfactory. One-way ANOVA showed a significant difference in anxiety across contexts, with the highest mean in the face-to-face group and the lowest mean in the virtual group. Tukey post-hoc comparisons indicated significant differences among all three groups. These findings suggest that delivery context shapes how accent anxiety is experienced and that virtual practice environments may provide a useful preparatory stage before live presentations. For pronunciation and public speaking courses, a staged sequence from virtual rehearsal to online and face-to-face performance may help reduce anxiety while maintaining communicative practice

Abstract

The rise of AI in recent times has significantly impacted the translation industry, igniting discussions about the respective roles of AI-driven machine translation and human expertise. However, the effectiveness of AI and machine translation in translating literary works remains a topic of debate, as literary translation should be linguistically accurate and preserve nuance, emotion, and cultural context. This study aims to observe the result of AI, Machine Translation, and humans in translating the short story entitled The Story of An Hour. This study analyses the translation method used by AI, Machine Translation (MT), and Human (HT) to translate a short story. Moreover, this research also determines the quality of the translation results from AI, MT, and HT. The research method used is qualitative and quantitaive. The data are collected from document analysis to observe the translation methods based on Newmark and questionnaire from Sutopo & Setya Budi to assess the quality of literary translation results. The research objects are the translation results of Chat GPT, DeepL, and human translator taken from fiksi lotus. The translation results are assessed concerning the accuracy, the sense of literature, acceptability, and readability. The results show that the significant translation methods applied in AI and machine translation are literal, faithful, communicative, and semantic translations. However, a human translator uses free translation, adaptation, and communicative translation. The quality result shows that human translators get higher accuracy, acceptability, sense of literature, and readability.

Abstract

In the 21st century, individuals with critical thinking skills are highly valued. Therefore, it drives a shift in higher education instructional models aim at enhancing these skills. This study examined the impact of podcast-making as a Project-Based Learning (PjBL) activity on students' critical thinking skills in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context. Utilizing a sequential explanatory mixed-method approach, this study addressed: (1) To what extent did PjBL enhance students' critical thinking? (2) What characteristics of PjBL contributed to the enhancement of students’ critical thinking? The participants of this study included 57 second-semester students from the English Language Education Study Program enrolled in an Advanced Listening and Speaking course, with 5 students selected for qualitative interviews. The quantitative results of this study indicated a significant enhancement in students' critical thinking skills, with the mean score rising from 45.58 (before podcast-making) to 60.61 (after podcast-making). A paired-t-test revealed a significant difference (t(56) = -19.56, p <0.001). Then, the qualitive findings identified key PjBL characteristics such as complex problem-solving, evidence-based reasoning, and reflective practice as contributing factors to the enhancement of students’ critical thinking skills. This study provides empirical evidence supporting podcast-making as an effective tool for enhancing critical thinking in EFL higher education. The findings offer valuable insights for educators seeking innovative instructional models. Future research could explore deeper the role of technology in PjBL and its impact on developing specific skills like critical thinking.
