The approach used is qualitative to understand phenomena about what the subject of the study experiences for example behavior, perception, motivation, action. The data collection technique is carried out by downloading short stories through the Republika e-paper, then describing, analyzing, and interpreting based on critical discourse analysis techniques. The findings of this study are: there are issues of moral and gender identity that are represented by examining the linguistic level and practice of discourse.

Abstract

This study attempted to investigate the students’ difficulties in research writing involving 39 master’s students majoring in English Language Education at one of the universities in Malang. The data on the thesis writing difficulties were gathered through a close-ended questionnaire designed based on the theory proposed by Harris (2020), consisting of three aspects: research skills in the introduction, research method, and finding and discussion parts. The data was analyzed quantitatively by measuring the mean, mode, and percentage from each scale. The results revealed that many master’s students encountered difficulties in most three aspects. First, one-third of 39 students perceived difficulty in the introduction part, such as selecting a research topic and formulating research problems. Second, the students also affirmed that they found challenging in the research method part, such as the dilemma of selecting an appropriate method, determining the sample, and designing instruments in which the results were slightly different from the students who were in the level of disagreement. However, finding appropriate instruments, determining the questionnaire scale, and collecting data were less problematic. Third, the study highlighted that the students found it difficult to process data, sort the data the results, and conclude the results by elaborating on research implications. This study concluded that master’s students still faced difficulties although they have learned research at undergraduate and master’s levels. It was recommended that further studies should intensively investigate students’ difficulties and factors in research in linguistics.

Abstract

The way someone shows politeness in speech acts is not only seen from a macro understanding of how speech participants can keep each other's face and maintain maxims with the inclusion of linguistic elements. Politeness of speech acts should be seen and understood on a micro level; more specifically in the context of language use in a language community as a cultural practice, both collectively and individually. Using the ethnographic perspective of communication, the current study investigates the politeness of speech acts in the context of guidance and counselling communication interactions in senior high schools, in the province of Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. The results of the analysis of S-P-E-A-K-I-N-G showed that the politeness of speech acts that appeared in the guidance and counselling process was mediated pragmatically by the use of local dialects. To find the forms, functions, strategies, and cooperative principles of speech act politeness that exist in the speech process, further analysis is carried out using coding techniques which also aims to construct a concept. The results of the analysis showed three forms of politeness, four functions of politeness, six strategies of politeness, and two principles of cooperative principles. The current study understands that violating the principle of cooperation in the context of communication in this study is actually a courtesy and that is why a polite speech act should be relied on the context in which a communication happened. This understanding was constructed theoretically then labelled as 'Dialect politeness' as a cultural communication practice.

Abstract

The old pattern of learning the heritage language has been disturbed because nowadays, some parents do no longer speak their heritage to their children as a mother tongue that consequently may result in a language shift among Acehnese children. The study aims to find out the role of parents in speaking Acehnese as a mother tongue to their children and how speaking Acehnese as a mother tongue for the children impacts on language maintenance and language shift among Acehnese children. This research is a case study that employed qualitative description. The data was collected based on interviews and observation. The informants of the study are six Acehnese people who live in Blang Puntuet village, one of the suburbs in Lhokseumawe city. The informants consist of three female parents and three Acehnese youths aged over 16 years old. The result of the study shows that from three families, one parent is actively speaking Acehnese to their children, one other parent is actively speaking Indonesian to their children, and the rest one is actively speaking Acehnese only to one of her three daughters. Therefore, the study indicates that once the old pattern is disturbed the ability of the children in speaking their heritage language is also disturbed because they are no longer actively speaking Acehnese in home in speech community.

Abstract

Omnibus law on Job Creation passed in 2021 by the Indonesian Government has sparked a nationwide protests from many elements of societies. In this case, with its positive belief in the law, the government has to legitimize it so that it obtains approval from the society. This study seeks to answer the legitimation strategies employed by the government to convice the societies regarding the positive sides of this law implementation. To attain its objective, the current study used qualitative approach with critical discourse analysis as its method and Leeuwen’s framework on legitimation strategies as its analytical toolkit. The data was obtained from five giant online newspapers, namely The Jakarta Post, Serambi Indonesia, Kompas, CNN, and Republika from which 14 articles related to UU Cipker were extracted by means of Google search engine. The result of data analysis reveals that the government employed the moral evaluation strategy, rationalization strategy, and authorization strategy. Out of the three strategies, moral evaluation which is a legitimation built by referring to various moral values, was employed dominantly. Finally, this study suggests the society to critically listen to, read, and understand the government’s language. This study can also be used as a reference by English teachers to legitimize each material presented to motivate their students to be life-long learners by telling them why they should learn those presented materials.

Abstract

This research aims to identify the illocutionary act performed by the main character in The Woman in the Window movie. This movie tells the story of Anna Fox, the main character with agoraphobia. The researchers are interested to find out the types of illocutionary act in the utterances of a person suffering from an anxiety disorder. Qualitative research and content analysis are used as the methodology. The data are collected from the movie and analyzed through some steps. The theory of Searle (1976) is applied to analyze the data. The findings reveal that four types of illocutionary act:18 assertives, 6 directives, 1 commisives, and 5 expressives utterances are used by the main character in attempting to investigate a murder. The purposes of the illocutionary act are to conclude, to state as assertive utterances, to ask, to request, to order, to command, to beg as directives utterances, to make a duty to herself as commisives utterances, and to apologize, to dislike, to thank as expressive utterances. The dominant utterance used was assertives which carries the value of true or false. It indicates that the main character was trying hard to convince the police officer of what she said was true. Interestingly, only 1 commissive utterance was used to prove what she saw was true. It explains the condition of the main character with agoraphobia.

Abstract

Politeness strategies are crucial to communicate with others in the community. This research aims to describe the politeness principle in students' language from the perspective of Madura culture in an Islamic boarding school environment. This research uses qualitative and descriptive research methods to present data directly obtained through recording. The subjects of the study were students and lecturers of the Al Karimiyyah Islamic Boarding School Sumenep. The data were collected by transcribing the conversation between students, teachers, and principals. The results of this study indicate that some sacred words contradict the principle of politeness in the cultural perspective of the Madurai community, especially at the level of the use of Madurai, including Engghih-Bunten, Enggih-enten, and Enjek-Iye. The politeness of the students’ language use in the Islamic Boarding School is influenced by the social background, circumstances, and the combination of boarding school and Madura cultures.
