Abstract

The acquisition of language involves multiple cognitive and linguistic processes. In this process, children learn the sound system of their language, how words are used to represent meaning, and how words can be combined to form sentences. This study discussed first language acquisition in a child aged two years old based on phonological, morphological, and semantics aspects. This study aims to determine how children develop as they acquire the first language and to analyze the vocabulary and simple sentences mastered by two-year-old children based on linguistic features, i.e., phonology, morphology, and semantics. The descriptive qualitative method and theory of cognitive development by Chomsky were used to analyze the data in this study. The data source was obtained by using observation and note-taking techniques to observe and note the utterances of a girl named Anastasia Gabriella Putri Wahyudi. Based on the research results, Anna’s language acquisition is significantly influenced by the family environment. In addition, Anna’s linguistic development is progressing well, with phonological, morphological, and semantic features that are typical for a two-year-old child

Abstract

Discourse markers are essential for effective communication, serving to structure and manage interactions in both native and non-native language contexts. Despite their significance, there is a noticeable gap in the literature regarding their specific functions within English as a Foreign Language (EFL) settings and how these functions align with theoretical frameworks versus practical classroom applications. This study aims to address this gap by exploring the use of discourse markers in an EFL classroom setting and assessing their impact on communication. The study’s primary objective is to analyze the utilization of discourse markers in EFL classroom interactions, identify patterns of their usage, and evaluate their effectiveness in facilitating communication between students and teachers. Employing a qualitative research design, the study involved detailed observations of one randomly selected class at Bali International Language Center (BILCEN). Data were collected through audio recordings of classroom interactions, which were transcribed and analyzed thematically. Instruments used for data collection included observation protocols and transcription software. The findings indicate that discourse markers were frequently used to manage conversational flow, signal transitions, and link ideas, playing a crucial role in maintaining coherence and promoting smoother communication. However, instances of overuse or incorrect usage occasionally led to misunderstandings among students. In conclusion, this study highlights the importance of discourse markers in enhancing EFL classroom interactions and suggests that focused instruction on these markers can significantly improve students' communicative competence. By bridging the gap between theoretical understanding and practical implementation, the research offers valuable insights for educators aiming to enhance oral communication skills in EFL contexts

Abstract

English has functioned as a lingua franca to communicate among countries. As an international lingua franca, English should be mastered by all employees who work in the hospitality industry. This Research aims at analyzing types of grammatical errors found in the Front Office department, and finding out the factors causing the hoteliers to commit errors. The type of this research was a descriptive case study with triangulation technique. In the first technique the researcher used a writing project to collect the data, for the second technique the researcher collected the data through questionnaire, and the third technique the researcher used an interview to collect the data. The researcher used a writing project to obtain the data about errors in writing. Questionnaires and interviews were provided to obtain the additional data about how they learned English in their life. The results of this study show that there are 110 errors made by the hoteliers. All of the errors are categorized into five types: 1. omission errors (50 errors or 45, 45%), 2. misinformation errors (15 errors or 13,63%), 3. misordering errors (35 errors or 31,8%), 4. overgeneralization errors (10 errors or 9%). Furthermore, the researcher found that there was a perception owned by hoteliers that learning English can be used through translating Indonesian language into English language.

Abstract

This study examines the usefulness of AI technologies in addressing the linguistic and pragmatic abilities required for English Language Teaching (ELT) in the tourism industry. Using a qualitative content analysis approach, the study assesses important aspects, strengths and weaknesses of widely used AI language learning Tools, Duolingo and ELSA Speak. The results show that although these tools are excellent at offering accessibility, adaptive learning pathways, and individualized feedback, they frequently lack industry-specific information, cultural sensitivity, and collaborative learning opportunities—all of which are vital for the tourism industry. These two widely used artificial intelligence (AI) technologies for learning foreign languages in Indonesia only concentrate on grammatical correctness; they fall short in addressing contextualized conversation and intercultural communication in tourism contexts. By bridging the gap between educational ideas and technology, this research advances applied linguistics by providing useful suggestions for educators, curriculum developers, and AI tool creators. Future research should focus on integrating intercultural communication training into AI tools, evaluating their long-term impact on tourism learners’ professional performance and exploring ethical considerations in advancing applied linguistics tailored to professional domains like tourism.

Abstract

This article investigates the complex themes in Flannery O'Connor's "A Good Man is Hard to Find" aiming to reveal the narrative's inherent complexity. The main focus is on the central themes of morality and the elusive nature of goodness. O'Connor's extraordinary literary skills, characterized by a distinctive narrative style and technique, are carefully examined to reveal a wide range of characters. Each of these characters grapples with the balance between virtue and moral compromise during what initially seems like an ordinary family trip. At the forefront of this exploration is the grandmother, who is elevated to protagonist status. His flawed moral beliefs and unwavering sense of righteousness become important forces that shape the events that occur. Using a multidimensional analytical approach, this research integrates elements of Southern Gothic literature and religious symbolism to enrich our understanding of O'Connor's storytelling. The findings and discussions section hones in on key themes, including Violence and Grace, Goodness, Punishment and Forgiveness, Familial Conflict and Familial Love, and Moral Decay. The analysis illuminates how the narrative utilizes violence for transformative effects, navigates the ambiguity of goodness, portrays the power of forgiveness amid harsh realities, depicts familial love emerging amidst conflict, and examines perceptions of moral decline. Through such a comprehensive exploration, this study not only deepens our appreciation of O'Connor's thematic choices but also provides insight into the complexity of human nature. This emphasizes the challenges inherent in the pursuit of goodness and moral integrity. The article concludes by highlighting the enduring relevance of “A Good Man is Hard to Find,” encouraging readers to reflect on the timeless themes of morality and the complexity of the human condition

Abstract

In global contemporary education, where character development and ethical growth are acknowledged as integral components, the incorporation of moral and ethical values in textbooks assumes paramount significance. However, in the context of Indonesian schools, especially Islamic institutions, government-endorsed English as a Foreign Language (EFL) textbooks often lack alignment with religious values, particularly Islamic ethics. This critical discourse analysis study aims to investigate the representation of Islamic ethics values in the EFL textbooks sanctioned by the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture for Islamic Senior High Schools. Employing language appraisal theory and visual grammar theory, the research evaluates the extent to which the content aligns with Islamic ethics values within the framework of Indonesian religious norms. This study highlights the need for further research on Islamic ethics values within Indonesian English Language Teaching (ELT) textbooks, a step toward fostering a deeper understanding of Islamic principles in ELT contexts. The findings of this study demonstrate that the EFL textbook effectively incorporates Islamic ethic values, including kindness, being friendly and polite, and respecting boundaries, consistently throughout the text. Both visual and verbal texts illustrate how these values are integrated into current topics to nurture moral development among students. In addition, the inclusivity of these textbooks exceeds expectations, as they are designed for all senior high schools without targeting any specific group. Nevertheless, it successfully instils Islamic ethical values, emphasizing their significance in shaping students' moral awareness and behaviour in diverse social interactions. The implication of this study is a deeper understanding of the current state of EFL textbooks in relation to Islamic ethical values, adding to the empirical knowledge base in the field of education.
