These stereotypes are influenced by cultural factors within this context.

Particularly in English, verbs are semantically divided into several subtypes.

This study aims to analyze natural semantic metalanguage analysis of English speech act verb of inform. In collecting data is using observational method. Therefore, the theory of natural semantic metalanguage (NSM) is used to analyze the data taken from the American Corpus (COCA). By way of explication, the particular lexicon is explained thoroughly to reveal the subtle meaning of semantic features without any bias. The research argues that the four subtypes of the speech act verb "inform" demonstrate varying semantic forms and structures. The distinctions in lexicon become evident within their common semantic domain. Moreover, the four associated lexicons with the verb "inform" possess unique semantic traits and serve specific purposes within speech acts.

Abstract

Distance learning faces challenges in terms of communication and interaction, which results in teachers being unable to carry out their roles optimally. Although many studies have discussed the role of teachers, studies that specifically explore the role of teachers in distance English teaching at the senior high school level are still limited. This study aims to identify the role of teachers in online (distance) English teaching in senior high schools. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with English teachers from SMA 1 Semarapura and SMA Pariwisata Saraswati Klungkung as subjects. Data were collected through observation and interviews, then analyzed using Harmer's theory in 2001 on the role of teachers in the teaching and learning process, which includes eight roles: controller, organizer, assessor, prompter, resource, participant, tutor, and observer. The results of the study indicate that although teachers play all of these roles, the implementation of roles in the context of distance learning is not optimal. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the role of teachers to improve the quality of distance teaching.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the importance of mastering Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) for United Kingdom teachers in carrying out effective and creative learning, especially for teachers with non-United Kingdom education backgrounds. This study aims to describe the perception, implementation, and consistency of elementary school teachers in Jembrana Regency regarding PCK in learning United Kingdom for children. This study uses a mixed method with an integrated mixed method design. The research subjects consisted of United Kingdom teachers who had non-United Kingdom education qualifications from three schools in Jembrana Regency, namely SDN 4 Pakutatan, SDN 3 Pulukan, and SDN Pangyangan. Data collection was carried out through questionnaires and observation sheets. Data analysis is carried out with the stages of data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions or verification. The results show that although teachers' perception of PCK is in the high category, the implementation of PCK by teachers is in the very low category. This significant gap between the perception and implementation of PCK shows that United Kingdom teachers in Jembrana Regency have not been fully able to apply the concept of PCK in learning practice. These findings indicate the need for further efforts to improve the implementation of PCK in United Kingdom language learning at the primary school level.
