Abstract

In the Japanese language, there were various forms of address. For example, the use of the second pronoun; anata (you), kimi (you), self-name; Nakamura, Yamaguchi, kinship names; okaasan (mother), otousan (father), name of the profession; and sensei (teacher/doctor). In addition to the various address types, the zero forms of address were also known, namely the implicit use of address words. For example, address words in the form of zero were address (aisatsu); ohayou gozaimasu (good morning), irasshaimase (welcome), and sumimasen (sorry). The form of address adopted in this study was the zero-address form. This study would find the various forms and variations of zero-address. In addition, it also examined the functions and factors that influenced the use of zero-address by the sociolinguistic and pragmatics approach. This study found that there are four variations of the zero-address form, namely (1) the form of greeting; (2) the form of an exclamation or interjection; (3) the form of an interrogative sentence; and (4) the form of declarative sentences. There are two kinds of greeting, namely formal and informal. The function of the zero-address is to show respect, closeness, attract attention, and notification/statement. Factors that influence the use of zero greetings are social status, social distance, situation, and identity of the speaking actor.

Abstract

Asobi Asobe anime shows the phenomenon of translating slang from the otaku group and the language of young people (wakamono kotoba) in Indonesian subtitles. Slang has links to certain social groups in every culture. Slang translation needs to consider the differences between the social situation of the home culture and the target culture. The proper translation technique is needed in order to be able to translate slang from the source language to the target language. This research intends to describe the techniques used in translating Japanese slang terms in the Indonesian subtitles of the Asobi Asobe anime. The types of translation techniques found are adaptation and modulation. Adaptation is found on 9 data, more than modulation found on 2 data. Adaptation is made by matching Japanese slang words with Indonesian colloquial words, while modulation is made when there are no appropriate equivalents for the Japanese slang words in colloquial Indonesian.

Abstract

The present study investigates the variables believed to relate to and affect Japanese language students’ willingness to communicate in Japanese in online learning situations. This study was a quantitative study that used questionnaire data as the main data distributed through the Google Form platform. A total of 81 Japanese language students from three universities participated. The findings showed that anxiety negatively correlated with willingness to communicate inside the classroom. Meanwhile, self-rating and virtual intercultural experiences positively correlated with willingness to communicate inside the classroom, outside the classroom, and in digital settings. The regression analysis showed that language anxiety, self-rating, and virtual intercultural experiences variables had a minor effect on willingness to communicate inside the classroom (19%) and digital setting (22.5 %). The results of this study indicate that besides the factors of anxiety, self-rating, and virtual intercultural experience, other variables are considered to be more contributing to how Japanese language students have the will to communicate in the target language.

Abstract

Objectification of women can be found in various media, including in literature, both classical and popular works. Therefore, this paper examines the objectification female characters experienced and their resistance to patriarchal culture in the anime Haikara-san ga Tooru Movie 1: Benio, Hana no 17-sai, which received the first Kodansha Manga Award. This study uses a feminist literary criticism approach that focuses on radical-liberal feminism. Data in conversations, actions, and events representing women's objectification and resistance to this treatment were collected using a note-taking technique. As a result, three treatments of objectification of women were found: arranged marriages, demands on women to be skilled in domestic tasks, and demeaning women. Meanwhile, women resist that objectification acts by rejecting arranged marriages, fighting against the demeaning of women, and working in the public sphere. From these findings, it is concluded that the objectification of women is constructed, consumed, and reproduced by men and women. Women, like men, should be treated as human beings with their rights, not as objects that can be traded, owned, or demeaned.
