Abstract

Metaphor plays a crucial role in expressing complex emotions in literary and musical texts, particularly in representing experiences of loss that are often difficult to articulate directly. In contemporary popular music, metaphors function not only as stylistic devices but also as cognitive tools that shape how emotions are conceptualized and shared by listeners. This study aims to identify and analyze metaphors of loss in three songs from Taylor Swift’s 2020 album Folklore “My Tears Ricochet,” “Exile (feat. Bon Iver),” and “Cardigan” through the lens of Conceptual Metaphors Theory (CMT) proposed by Lakoff and Johnson (1980). Using a qualitative approach, the research applies textual and interpretive analysis to song lyrics sourced from verified platforms. The findings reveal five dominant conceptual mappings: LOSS IS A BATTLE, LOSS IS SEPARATION, LOSS IS EXILE, LOSS IS MEMORY, and LOSS IS A PHYSICAL OBJECT. These metaphors illustrate how Swift conceptualizes emotional loss through concrete domains such as warfare, distance, and tangible remnants, enabling listeners to relate to abstract emotional experiences. Each song portrays a distinct dimension of loss: conflict in “My Tears Ricochet,” displacement in “Exile,” and nostalgia in “Cardigan.” The analysis demonstrates that metaphors in Folklore function as both cognitive and emotional mechanisms that transform personal grief into shared, universal understanding. This study contributes to cognitive linguistics, literary criticism, and cultural studies by highlighting how popular music reflects universal human experiences. It also suggests pedagogical applications for integrating CMT into language and literature education to enhance students interpretive and analytical skills.

Abstract

The trend in deep learning in English language education has encouraged greater attention toward curriculum models that connect language learning with meaningful classroom interaction. Within this research, the International Baccalaureate (IB) Language Acquisition framework has gained attention for its learner-centred and inquiry-oriented approach to language education. This study aims to examine the potentials and challenges of IB Language Acquisition in improving English language learning. Using a systematic literature review design guided by PRISMA, the study selected ten peer-reviewed articles published between 2015 and 2025 from Scopus, ERIC, SAGE Journals, Google Scholar, and Semantic Scholar. Our findings show that IB Language Acquisition engage deeper learning by emphasising language as part of meaning-making, identity construction, inquiry, conceptual engagement, critical thinking, and multilingual interaction. The findings also indicate a shift from form-focused language learning toward sociocultural and epistemic perspectives where language functions as a medium for constructing understanding and participating in learning processes. However, the implementation of IB Language Acquisition remains shaped by contextual challenges, including procedural inquiry practices, unequal institutional readiness, assessment demands, and tensions surrounding multilingualism and academic English expectations.

Abstract

Society's demand for technology use in education affects how students manage their learning, particularly in ELT. This study investigates the effects of SRL strategies and perceptions of technology on English achievement at Luqman Al-Hakim Islamic College. Adopting a quantitative methodology, the study employed survey data collected from 30 undergraduate students enrolled in a General English class using validated questionnaires on SRL strategies, technology perception, and English achievement. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to determine how much variance in students’ General English achievement could be explained by SRL strategies and perceptions of technology. The findings suggest that SRL strategies are a significant positive predictor of English achievement. Perceptions of technology also have a strong positive influence on General English achievement and contribute significantly to the explanatory power of the regression model. These results suggest that effective SRL and positive perceptions of technology play an important role in improving students’ English learning outcomes. The findings imply that teaching approaches focusing on SRL through educational technology may lead to better General English learning performance at Islamic universities.
