The education-related TEDx presentations delivered by Indonesian speakers are a distinct linguistic phenomenon. It is a language in use where the message is communicated entirely through spoken speech as opposed to speaking itself. In light of systemic functional linguistics (SFL), this study examines the management of topical theme in relation to the message organisation of TE in TEDx. The aim of this study was to pinpoint and define the message's current theme in the TEDx format. Using the documentation method, the information was gleaned from an official TEDx broadcaster online. Two methods of analysis have been used: detailed text fragmentation and transcription. Following the analysis, the findings were presented and their theoretical SFL-based interpretation was given. This study shows that the phrasal and clausal forms of language, which are the constructional units of language, have taken on the topical theme in TE of TEDx. Phrasal constructs can be categorised into four different categories: noun phrase (NP), verb phrase (VP), adjective phrase (AP), and prepositional phrase (PP). The topical theme has also been functionalized as a component of other themes and the chain for coherence. This study recommended more examination of the organisation of the other component of the message. To ensure that the entire description of the thematic structure of TE in TEDx is respected, the combinatory analysis of theme and rheme will be essential.

The other advantages of microlearning included improving critical thinking, reducing cognitive load, concentrating on learning, and closing the theory-practice gap. This study looks into Symphony 1, an English course book, to assess how much reading involves microlearning and critical thinking skills. The cognitive domain of Anderson and Krathwohl revised Bloom's Taxonomy, which has been modified with critical thinking skills, served as the instrument for this descriptive qualitative study. The Microlearning descriptor, which was used as the second instrument, was taken from several pertinent sources. The researcher then determined the frequency and percentage of the cognitive domain of the data under investigation. According to the research, Symphony 1 contains 42 data on microlearning and 44 data on critical thinking skills. In the meantime, the proportion of each technique varies for both features. It proved that the existing learning materials actually contain critical thinking skills and microlearning. However, each chapter of the book needs to balance and emphasize how much of each indicator is used. The study suggests that textbook authors stress microlearning ideas and critical thinking skills more so as a way to enhance students' reading experiences.

The following study aims to examine the extrinsic elements in the form of pragmatics contained in the catchphrase "my friend calls me murphy, you call me, Robocop" in the movie Robocop 3. The author believes that every expression has a hidden meaning in it. To translate a literary work such as a movie, a complete understanding is needed, especially in its linguistic elements. This information can be used in the process of translating a literary work in order to get a good, acceptable, and accurate translation. The research method used for this study is qualitative, where the author sees snippets of conversations in movie then analyzes the pragmatic elements contained therein. These elements can be in the form of speech and actions desired by the speaker. The author chose to analyze a catchphrase or conversation line in the movie because of its iconic nature and known by most connoisseurs or fans of the movie. The following study is expected to reveal the hidden meaning of a catchphrase that contains the true will of the speaker. The translation of literary works is done by modulating methods because it is in accordance with the linguistic aspects of a movie that has many points of view of each character played. The author also hopes that this study can be used as reference material for translating movie-type literary works.
