Abstract

Even though there are many translation aids such as online machine translation and online dictionaries that help the students in translating text from Bahasa Indonesia into English, they are not enough to make sure that the students’ translation is grammatically correct. Based on such reasons, this study aims to explore the effect of using Grammarly application as a translation tool to improve the students’ translation quality. By checking the students’ translation using Grammarly, it is found that the most common grammatical mistakes made by students are the improper use of space, misspelling, improper use of articles, tenses, and wordy words. Besides, it is also found that Grammarly has many strengths, such as: accuracy in identifying orthography issues, concern towards the wordy diction, consistency in using a certain English variant, providing its users with their personal dictionary, providing constructive feedback, and accessible in many platforms. Meanwhile, the weaknesses of Grammarly include over checking on people’s name spelling, misleading feedback, inconsistency in identifying mistakes, limited explanation, questionable “Grammar Checker”, and working just like a machine. The conclusion is Grammarly will be an excellent translation tool to improve students’ translation quality if accompanied by the students’ sufficient background skill and knowledge.

Abstract

This research is an analysis of two contemporary poems, Warned (Stults, 2015), and Our Mother Earth (Isham, 2008). This analysis aims to reveal human greed which leads to the destruction of nature from nature overexploitation in two contemporary poems. This analysis aims to reveal the issue of human greed towards excessive exploitation of nature which leads to the destruction of nature in the three contemporary poems. This analysis looks at human greed which is shown through the point of view of poetry. This analysis mainly uses the eco-criticism concept proposed by Cheryll Glotfelty and is also supported by other eco-criticisms. The use of the concept is based on the interpretation of the text and the context of the poem. This analysis also uses many poetry fiction tools to help the writer analyze the text. The results show that human greed still dominates the results of the destruction of nature and the low awareness of mankind to realize that they need to help the world for a better future.

This research purpose is to describe the main character experiences of suffering from agoraphobia, type of anxiety disorder in the novel Highly Illogical Behavior by John Corey Whaley. The psychoanalysis behaviorism theory by John B Watson is used to determine the stimuli and responses that result in changes of the behaviors of the main character.

Through a careful examination of the narrative, character dynamics, and key scenes, this analysis identifies the stimuli that elicit agoraphobic responses in the protagonist, Solomon Reed. It investigates the specific environmental and social factors that serve as triggers for Solomon's anxiety and subsequent avoidance behavior. These stimuli include crowded spaces, unfamiliar settings, and social interactions that have previously caused distress or panic attacks for Solomon. Furthermore, this analysis scrutinizes Solomon's responses to these stimuli, focusing on his avoidance behavior and the measures he takes to control his anxiety. It delves into his meticulous routines, the establishment of safe spaces within his home, and the development of coping mechanisms that allow him to navigate his daily life within the confines of his own environment. The result of this study is that the main character can overcome the agoraphobia he suffers with the help of the environment such as family and friends.
