Abstract

Political speeches at international forums function as strategic tools for expressing national identity, foreign policy positions, and moral commitments. This study examines the types and pragmatic functions of illocutionary speech acts in Prabowo Subianto’s speech at the 80th United Nations General Assembly 2025. The research subject is the official transcript of the speech, analyzed qualitatively using Searle’s taxonomy of illocutionary acts. Data were collected through textual analysis, identifying utterances and categorizing them according to their illocutionary function, then interpreted to reveal their role in diplomatic communication. The findings show that assertive and commissive acts are dominant, reflecting Indonesia’s principled stance, political commitments, and responsibilities in addressing global humanitarian issues. Expressive and declarative acts also appear, enhancing Indonesia’s diplomatic identity and fostering international cooperation. This study concludes that illocutionary acts serve as more than linguistic elements, they are deliberate mechanisms through which leaders communicate ethical, political, and diplomatic positions effectively. The insights contribute to the understanding of political pragmatics and highlight the role of language as a purposeful instrument in multilateral diplomacy.

Abstract

Academic writing in English can be particularly challenging for EFL graduate students because it requires grammatical accuracy, coherent organization of ideas, and effective argumentation. Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has emerged as a potential tool to support this process, yet research on its acceptance has largely relied on quantitative surveys that provide limited insight into students’ experiences. This study explored three EFL graduate students’ perceptions of GenAI in supporting English academic writing through the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Specifically, it explored perceived usefulness and ease of use, attitudes toward GenAI, and behavioral intention to use it for academic writing. A qualitative study was conducted with three Master’s students who regularly used GenAI for academic writing. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed thematically. The findings suggest that, among these participants, perceived usefulness varied across writing processes, with GenAI serving corrective, cohesive, and generative functions. Perceived ease of use was influenced not only by the accessibility of the tool but also by participants’ ability to formulate effective prompts. Positive attitudes were associated with greater autonomy, whereas negative attitudes emerged when AI-generated suggestions conflicted with participants’ academic judgment. Despite these concerns, the three participants intended to continue using GenAI while maintaining boundaries through teacher feedback and crosschecking AI-generated suggestions. Within this context, the findings suggest that GenAI use may be experienced as bounded and negotiated rather than as straightforward acceptance. It is recommended that EFL writing instruction integrate GenAI alongside human feedback and encourage students to critically evaluate AI-generated output.

Abstract

This study explores the metaphorical expressions and the intertwined emotional and social dimensions in Troye Sivan’s song “Angel Baby, Easy and Talk Me Down.” Music, as a form of artistic expression, often employs metaphors to translate complex emotions and lived experiences into relatable imagery that resonates with listeners. Through qualitative content analysis, this research identifies and interprets the metaphors present in the song's lyrics by examining their literal meanings, figurative interpretations, and emotional and social implications. The findings reveal that ontological and structural metaphor dominantly shape the metaphorical themes such as angelic imagery, rebirth, vulnerability, sacrifice, security, fear of loss, and intimacy, which together construct love as a transformative, redemptive, and deeply human experience. These metaphors portray romantic attachment as a source of emotional healing, devotion, and renewal, while also reflecting broader social understandings of intimacy, emotional dependence, and relational values in contemporary culture. Overall, the study concludes that Sivan's strategic use of metaphor not only enhances the lyrical and emotional depth of Angel Baby, Easy and Talk Me Down but also functions as a subtle form of social reflection. By bridging personal emotional experiences with shared cultural meanings, the song shows how metaphor plays a central role in shaping interpretations of love, vulnerability, and human connection within popular music. Further research may investigate how other musicians may construct the meaning of love within their musical sense both comparatively and semiotically as the limitations of this study.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of digital communication has significantly transformed linguistic practices, particularly word-formation strategies among young speakers on social media platforms. This study investigates the morphological process of blending in Indonesian (Medan dialect) and English as used on the TikTok accounts @medan.dubbing and @easyenglishyureka. The importance of this topic lies in understanding how blending functions as both a creative and pragmatic linguistic tool across different languages and digital contexts. The objectives of this research are to identify the blended words used by each account, to analyze their morphological blending structures, and to compare their sociocultural functions. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with data collected through systematic observation and documentation of content from the two TikTok accounts. Ten blended terms were collected from @medan.dubbing and five from @easyenglishyureka. The findings reveal that Indonesian (Medan) blending predominantly involves clipping and overlapping strategies that create phonological mimicry of global place names applied humorously to local geography (e.g., turki for tuntungan belok kiri), while English blending on @easyenglishyureka follows standardized clipping and overlapping patterns to encode modern emotional and lifestyle concepts (e.g., hangry from hungry and angry). Despite both languages employing blending through clipping and overlapping, Medan blends are more humor-oriented, identity-specific, and context-dependent, whereas English blends exhibit greater standardization in global digital discourse. It is recommended that future research explore the long-term integration of these digital blends into formal linguistic systems and examine generational perceptions of blending in both communities.

Abstract

The expansion of digital social media has primarily altered the production, dissemination, and interpretation of language, resulting in complex and evolving sociolinguistic patterns. This study examines the operation of sociolinguistic variation, multimodality, and discourse strategies across modern digital platforms. Moving beyond traditional text-centered methodologies, this research highlights the influence of contextual factors including social interaction, platform affordances, and audience dynamics on (semantic formation) meaning-making in digital communication. Employing a triangulateration approach, this study combines qualitative discourse analysis with quantitative observations of 500 digital posts sourced from social media platforms. The analysis focuses on key sociolinguistic features such as code-switching, vernacular language use, emojis, hashtags, and lexical innovation. The findings indicate that digital discourse is inherently multimodal and hybrid, with 72% of posts incorporating emojis, 48% demonstrating code-switching, and 57% reflecting informal or vernacular-language forms. These patterns illustrate that digital communication functions as a multi-semiotic system, where meaning is constructed through the interaction of linguistic and visual resources. Furthermore, the study reveals that users actively construct and negotiate their identities through context-sensitive language practices. Linguistic choices, such as slang, stylistic expressions, and multimodal markers, serve as tools for social positioning and group alignment. The findings also underscore the significance of contextual interpretation, as identical linguistic features (e.g., emojis) convey different meanings depending on the interactional and platform-specific contexts. By mapping these sociolinguistic patterns, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of language use in digitally mediated environments and underscores the necessity of reconsidering traditional sociolinguistic frameworks. This ultimately positions digital media as a critical site for examining contemporary language practices, emphasizing a shift from analyzing isolated texts to understanding language as a contextually embedded social practice.

Abstract

Indonesia and the Philippines differ greatly in their implementation of English Language Teaching. These differences are also reflected in their National Syllabi when they create the Learning Objectives for their teachers and students. The purpose of this research was to compare the levels of Learning Objective defined in Grade 7 English Language Syllabi for both the Philippines and Indonesia. A Bloom’s Taxonomy based content analysis method determined the level of learning objectives enumerated by syllabi verb, through the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domain types of categorisation. These ratings were subsequently verified through evaluation by English Teachers as Raters from both countries. The conclusion derived through this method identifies both similarities and differences between the two countries regarding how they conceive learning targets. For example, the Indonesian Syllabus takes into consideration all levels of the affective domain, given that it places more emphasis on the development of emotional and attitudinal learning outcomes. In contrast, the Philippine Syllabus encompasses all 18 levels as enumerated in the Bloom’s Taxonomy, and therefore incorporates more extensive and multidimensional learning objectives in its application of Bloom’s Taxonomy to English Language Education. These findings will highlight the relationship between the Education Context and how both countries have adapted Bloom’s Taxonomy & an understanding of differing approaches to English Language Education between the EFL and ESL context, and ultimately how these approaches may vary across regions.
