<![CDATA[In general, the development of a child's language is separated into two stages: the Pralinguistic and Linguistic periods. The goal of this research is to examine the phonological study of child language acquisition during the linguistic period, which covers vowel and consonant acquisition, as well as factors that influence phonology acquisition. This study looks at the following questions: 1) What factors influence a child's phonological acquisition during the language period? 2) How does a four-year-old learn voices and consonants? 3) What is the reason for the child's phonological acquisition? This study used a case study approach to qualitative research. The data was gathered by observation, documentation, and interviews from the utterances of a 4-year-old named TRS. Meanwhile, phonological analysis was used to examine the data. TRS has mastered vocal phonemes since she was two years old, according to the findings of this study. The consonant [r] and its vibrating sound have yet to develop and be mastered. The lack of a proper pronunciation of TRS is partly to blame for the formation of significant differences in the acquisition of TRS phonology. In other words, the TRS language's phonological acquisition has not yet achieved its peak. ]]>

<![CDATA[The United States' war on terror effort, which began after the devastating assaults on the World Trade Center (WTC) and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, has lasted until now. Even under Trump's presidency, U.S. foreign policy toward the Muslim world, particularly in the Middle East, has had little impact on global political stability. The latest tensions between the U.S. and Iran have proved that the "war" is still ongoing. This study aimed to analyze Donald Trump's speech concerning all of his statements referred to Iran's nuclear weapons and the related issues in the Islamic world. It also sought to investigate Donald Trump's explicit/stated and implicit/unstated agenda on Iran and the Islamic world. This research engaged with Qualitative Case Study as its framework and NVIVO Pro 12 application (Computer-Assisted Analysis) for its linguistic inquiry. As long as the United States' foreign policy toward the Muslim world stays intact, Iran will not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons, and neither will all Islamic countries. The term "terrorist" was a great strategy for reason to interfere in a country to carry out its main agenda.]]>

<![CDATA[The pandemic of Covid-19 has had an impact on education. Because of the presence of the corona virus, face-to-face teaching-learning activities have been hampered. One of them is the use of an online classroom in which teachers or lecturers engage verbally with students. The examination of speech function can reveal verbal interaction. The purpose of this research is to look at Speech Function in online Structure and Speaking programs. This study looks into: 1) speech function classification in online Structure and Speaking classes; 2) how speech function is implemented in online Structure and Speaking classes; and 3) why speech function is implemented in online Structure and Speaking classes. The data for this study was gathered through qualitative research from the discourse of lecturers and students in online Structure and Speaking classes. Content analysis and Speech Function analysis were used to examine the data. The speech function can be used to evaluate 32 utterances in the Structure online classroom. Statement has 56.3 percent, Question has 34.3 percent, Offer has 3.1 percent, and Command has 6.3 percent, according to the Structure class statistics. The data from the first question of the speech function of statement in the online speaking class is 100 percent accurate. It is because the inquiry is a form of experience-based self-opinion, and many claims require data to reinforce their answers. The second question is statement (67.8%), with command coming in second at 30.3%.]]>
