Abstract

This research deals with conversational implicature and flouted maxim found in stand-up comedy. This descriptive qualitative research, analyzed 12 utterances of Trevor Noah from YouTube video entitled “Trevor Noah COMPLETE REMARKS at 2022 White House Correspondents’ Dinner (C-SPAN)” using Grice’s conversational implicature theory. The finding shows that from 12 utterances, every utterance can contain more than one type of flouted maxims, the details are as follows, 10 manner, 9 quality, 7 relevance, 6 maxims of quantity. The researcher also finds that, Noah applied Particularized Conversational Implicature more frequently than Generalized Conversational Implicature, with a ratio of 11:1. Noah has done this to make his satire is less offensive. This research also finds that flouted of maxims does not mean that a conversation has been failed, but that is intentionally done by the speaker to create an implicature effect in his utterance. As long as the speaker and the listener have the same knowledge about the context or background, the conversation will keep going well.

Abstract

The use of local languages in the era of globalization is currently experiencing a decline. Based on field data, the utilization of local languages through local content education is minimally implemented by educational institutions. This poses a problematic situation as the use of local languages through local content education may vanish and erode due to the advancement of a more globalized world. In the Curriculum 13 itself, the use of local languages in educational institutions is mandated to be included as part of the local content subjects. However, in the "merdeka" (freedom) curriculum, the use of local languages is not obligatory, meaning it becomes conditional. This research adopts a qualitative research method, where the focus is on gathering information. Additionally, this study also employed a literature review approach, using journals, academic articles, and other. The research findings indicate that indeed, the use of local languages, content subjects has become rare in some cases, no longer applied, primarily due to the curriculum regulations. Therefore, the author suggests the issuance of a new policy that involves a collective reevaluation of the curriculum to ensure the enduring preservation of local languages in education.

Abstract

Language acquisition is influenced by both internal and external factors, including cognitive and IQ development. External factors arise from environmental influences, such as age, gender, intelligence, environment, economy, and social issues. Previous studies have looked at this type of study. However, no one had undertaken a research on this issue, such as morphology and phonology, in the contexts where the current study was conducted, and the comparative ages were only three years old children. These fills one of these gaps. This study aims to analyze the stages of phonology and morphology experienced by two children aged 3 years and above, focusing on the role of parents, particularly mothers, in influencing children's language acquisition. The descriptive qualitative method is used, and data is collected from children's utterances in natural context. findings show that F.A. (a 3-year-old girl) pronounced more phonemes and morphemes than M.A (a 3-year-old boy) and produced clearer utterances. Parental factors also play a role in child language, with both mothers using technology like YouTube animated videos to support language acquisition. This research fills a gap in previous studies on language acquisition in children of different topic and ages.

This article aims to 1) explicate the positive impact of using Google Translate in vocabulary learning and 2) to explicate the drawback of using Google Translate in vocabulary learning. The method used in this writing this article is Systematic Literature Review (SRs). To analyse the data, the writer used content analysis technique. The result of the study shows that Google Translate was found to enhance student engagement and self-awareness in their learning process. Google Translate also helped them master vocabulary because it is easy to use and accessible. It also assisted students to improve their vocabulary with words with similar meaning. Moreover, Google Translate could be used for spelling check. On the other hand, Google Translate also have drawbacks such as causing dependency for students. Students were too reliant on it causing them to give less attention to the vocabulary’s deeper meaning. It is also not beneficial for students who want to learn figurative language because it cannot process figurative language well which may lead to the inaccuracy of the translation. Therefore, it is suggested that to maximize the use of Google Translate in vocabulary learning, students need to be assisted by their teachers.
