Abstract

Language and cultural identity are things that can be summarized in terms of language identity. The construct of a second language identity has a strong relation with study abroad. Second language identity tends to appear in continuous classical conditioning through study abroad. However, no further investigation about this issue has been researched in Indonesian international student context. This study purposed to explore how is the second language identity constructed through the interactions during study abroad. Through narrative interviews, this study will explore more about how second language identity of two international students constructed in their study abroad countries. The result of this study is second language identity construction is more powerful based on self-desire of participants and who the interlocutors are. Further, by knowing how the second language identity is constructed when international students are in native and non-native English-speaking countries, this study will give an empirical contribution about how English language learning patterns depend on the environment. Thus, the English teacher or language expert later could adapt English learning patterns through the construction of other people's language identity.

The analysis stage is to categorize idioms based on conceptual metaphor theory. Then, identify the metaphorical meaning by comparing the lexical meaning using a dictionary. Next, categorize and analyze the types of metaphors. Then, identify the image scheme that underlies the concept of water and interpret the concept of mizu in a conceptual metaphor. Finally, categorize the idioms contained in the data based on the classification of idiom forms. The results showed that based on structure, there were three classifications of the idiom form of the word mizu which consisted of 4 noun, 2 adjective, and 4 verb idioms.
