Abstract

Abstract. This study aims to identify non-canonical syntactic structures in French brand taglines and analyze their aesthetic and persuasive functions based on Leech’s theory and Jakobson’s model of language functions. The research employs a qualitative interpretive design using data from taglines of seven French brands collected from official company websites through simple random sampling. Data analysis was conducted by classifying canonical and non-canonical syntactic structures and examining non-canonical forms such as ellipsis, fragmentation, and neologism in relation to aesthetic and persuasive functions. The findings show that most taglines use non-canonical structures, particularly ellipsis, fragmentation, and neologism. In conclusion, non-canonical syntax functions not only as grammatical deviation but also as an aesthetic and persuasive strategy that shapes brand identity and strengthens marketing communication in global branding. The study contributes theoretically by integrating Leech’s theory and Jakobson’s model to explain the relationship between syntactic creativity, aesthetic and persuasive function. The use of hashtags reflects digital communication trends that favor concise yet meaningful expressions. Practically, the findings encourage further research on non-canonical syntax in digital marketing contexts Keywords: Aesthetic Function, Persuasive Function, Brands, Non-Canonical Syntax, Tagline

Abstract

Abstract. As an AI-driven interactive tool, ChatSonic offers students an independent learning resource to support their writing development. This study explores how students utilize ChatSonic and their perceptions of its effectiveness in improving German writing skills at SMA Negeri 7 Malang, Indonesia. Employing a qualitative-descriptive approach, the study collected data from 33 students through observations and questionnaires. Findings reveal that ChatSonic provides clear, concise, and easily understandable feedback, which not only facilitates students’ writing development but also enhances their motivation to learn German.  These findings offer global implications for the pedagogical integration of AI-powered writing tools in foreign language education, particularly in contexts with limited access to native-speaker feedback, suggesting that generative AI can serve as a scalable, complementary resource for writing instruction at upper secondary education level. Keywords: Writing Skills, Artificial Intelligence, ChatSonic

Abstract

Abstract. This paper presents a systematic close reading of Jared Carter’s poem ‘Ethel’ through the lens of New Criticism. New Criticism is a literary theory that treats a text as a self-contained object of knowledge. The poem ‘Ethel’ depicts the 1953 execution of Ethel Rosenberg by electric chair. However, in this study, the poem ‘Ethel’ is independent of historical or biological context, author’s intention, or reader’s response. This study employs a qualitative textual analysis methodology, utilizing a five-step systematic close reading instrument: (1)visual mapping of line breaks and indentation; (2)reconstruction of syntax baseline; (3)cataloguing deviations from the baseline; (4)categorization of diction by semantic field and register, and (5)analysis of grammatical voice. Through this methodology, the study reveals the findings of Carter’s use of enjambment, caesura, and indentation creates a ‘structure of interruption’ that mirrors the electrical interruptions in the poem’s content. The analysis identifies a paradox, where bureaucratic terminology (stethoscopes, warden, signaled) collides with imageries (plume, smoke, rose). The grammatical passive voice showcases structural irony, where active verbs are empty (They), inanimate actor (stethoscopes), or modal (had seemed). Meanwhile, the only unqualified active verb (rose) is granted to smoke, rather than to human. These all together generate organic unity. The poem does not create meaning through what it explicitly states about Ethel Rosenberg’s execution. The poem achieves its meaning through how its formal features enact limits of witness, memory, and knowledge. These findings carry global implications for literary pedagogy and critical methodology. They demonstrate that New Criticism’s systematic close reading remains a replicable, teachable, and verifiable model for textual analysis across diverse educational contexts. New Criticism offers a transferable framework that enables readers worldwide to analyze poetry through its internal structural relationships rather than external contexts. The study contributes to formalist methodology in an era of computational text analysis. It asserts that human-centered close reading provides irreplaceable interpretive depth that computation approaches cannot replicate. Keywords: New Criticism, close reading, poetry, Jared Carter, Ethel Rosenberg

Abstract

Abstract. No Nose Knows episode is crucial to be analysed since it contains a lot of verbal expressions and conflicts which reflect to negative impoliteness strategy to damage someone’s negative face. This study aims to analyze negative impoliteness among the characters in No Nose Knows episode of SpongeBob SquarePants and its factors caused. Descriptive qualitative was used to describe the data comprehensively. In this frame, the data were collected by applying content analysis and notetaking from the video website with the researcher be the primary instrument because of being responsible for collecting, transcribing, and analysing the data. Creswell’s Framework (2013) was used to present the data which include preparing and organizing data, reducing data, then representing the data in the form of discussion. The results found that negative impoliteness conveyed through condescend, scorn, and ridicule, invade the other face, and associating someone with a negative aspect explicitly. Additionally, speakers’ intention in damaging someone’s face, different social power, also the intimate relationship are the factors behind those strategies. This study contributes to pragmatics studies by demonstrating the way negative impoliteness is strategically employed in animated movie to construct interpersonal conflict and social hierarchy among characters. The findings may help pepople to understand the way negative impoliteness and its factors operate in everyday interactions. Keywords: Negative Impoliteness, Pragmatics, SpongeBob SquarePants
