Abstract

Translation serves as a bridge to overcome language barriers. This research compares the types of equivalence produced by Google Translate (GT) and DeepL Translate (DT) using Koller`s equivalence framework. Employing a qualitative approach, the study follows data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion verification procedures. The translations generated by GT and DT were analyzed in the context of Kampung Kopi Camp, a tourism website being developed as a bilingual platform. The findings reveal two key classifications: (1) the same type of equivalence, where both GT and DT produce denotative, pragmatic, and text-normative equivalence for certain data, and (2) different types of equivalence, where the two tools generate varying results for the same data. Additionally, GT demonstrates a broader application of equivalence types, with a higher occurrence of pragmatic and connotative equivalence, making its translations more engaging. In contrast, DT adopts a more formal approach. These differences suggest that GT may be more effective in capturing contextual and expressive nuances, while DT maintains a stricter adherence to formal structures. By identifying the characteristics of these translation tools, this study provides insights into their effectiveness in producing equivalent translations, particularly in the tourism field. Understanding these variations can guide users in selecting the most suitable machine translation tool based on their specific needs, whether for formal communication or more engaging, context-driven translation. Ultimately, this research highlights the strengths and limitations of GT and DT, contributing to a broader understanding of machine translation in cross-linguistic communication.

Abstract

Advertising significantly influences consumer perceptions and purchasing behavior through the strategic use of linguistic and visual elements. Despite extensive research on advertising discourse, there remains a gap in understanding how language and imagery are specifically utilized in beauty and skincare product advertisements, particularly on social media. While existing studies have explored general advertising strategies, limited research has examined the interplay between linguistic choices, visual representation, and color psychology in shaping consumer responses within the Nigerian context. This study aims to fill this gap by critically analyzing the linguistic and visual elements in Giv Soap advertisements. The research examines the choice of words, including nouns, verbs, and adjectives, to determine their role in portraying product attributes, effectiveness, and the desired impact on users. It also identifies various phrase structures, such as noun phrases, verb phrases, and adjectival phrases, and their contribution to conveying persuasive messages. Additionally, the study explores the use of colors-blue, white, green, and pink-in these advertisements and their psychological effects on audiences. Findings reveal that Giv Soap advertisements strategically combine language and imagery to appeal to consumers, particularly women, by creating strong mental images and emotional connections with the product. The study highlights how these advertisements subtly influence consumer preferences and purchasing decisions. This research contributes to the broader discourse on advertising by providing insights into how linguistic and visual elements work together to construct persuasive messages. It offers valuable implications for advertisers, marketers, and linguists, particularly within the beauty industry.

Abstract

One of the primary goals of education is to foster students’ autonomy and self-regulation in learning while recognizing their active roles in the learning process. In English language teaching, self-regulated learning (SRL) has been widely implemented as a strategy to achieve these goals. Speaking, as a skill, requires learners to quickly access and apply linguistic knowledge, often leading to challenges such as fluency issues. Furthermore, non-linguistic factors, particularly a lack of confidence, contribute significantly to the difficulties students face in developing speaking skills. This study investigates the effectiveness of SRL in teaching speaking skills, particularly in relation to students' self-confidence levels, in Islamic-affiliated schools. A mixed-methods approach using concurrent embedded design was employed to gather both quantitative and qualitative data. Quantitative data were analyzed statistically, while qualitative data were processed through data condensation, data display, and conclusion verification. The findings reveal that SRL strategies are particularly effective for students with higher levels of self-confidence, significantly improving their speaking abilities in the context of Islamic-affiliated schools. The study concludes that SRL can be a valuable approach in enhancing speaking skills, but its success is closely tied to students' confidence levels. These findings suggest that teachers should not only incorporate SRL strategies but also focus on building students’ self-confidence to maximize the effectiveness of speaking instruction in EFL contexts.

Abstract

As a popular and important field in pragmatic study, deixis has been largely investigated by many researchers across disciplines and in various types of discourse. However, its use in Islamic discourse focusing on comparative religion is rarely explored. Therefore, this study examined deictic expressions used in Islamic public oration by a famous scholar. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, it aims to find out the main types of deixis, focusing on the analysis of the frequency, what they refer to, & the functions. The data were gained from a corpus of three recorded preaching sessions available online on YouTube. The findings showed that personal deixis becomes the most dominant type, followed by spatial and temporal deixis. Personal deixis mainly worked to refer to the addressee & to engage the addressee in the discourse. It also referred to the preacher as a form of revealing his identity. Then, spatial deixis functioned as a way to focus the talk to particular things and to refer to preceding or following ideas or acts. In addition, temporal deixis was primarily used to refer to present times, showing the high relevance of the discourse with current moments. This paper is hoped to provide insights regarding how deixis serves various crucial functions in preaching and how it facilitates the speaker to persuade the addressee to the explanations given. Hence, the results of this study could inform those who aspire to be a better speaker by practicing using deictic expressions more properly to sound more convincing.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the types of violations of politeness maxims and the factors influencing these violations in the movie Mencuri Raden Saleh. Using a qualitative approach, data collection techniques involved listening and noting, while data analysis employed the pragmatic pairing method refined with theoretical triangulation for validation. The research findings reveal: (1) 19 instances of violations of politeness maxims; (2) 15 instances of violations of the cooperation principle; and (3) internal and external factors influencing these violations. The study demonstrates that politeness violations play a critical role in supporting character development, building conflict, and creating tension in the storyline. Additionally, such violations are often strategically employed to achieve specific communication goals, both directly and indirectly. These findings offer valuable insights into the use of language in popular media as a reflection of social interaction and the nuanced dynamics of politeness in communication. Furthermore, this research contributes significantly to socio-pragmatic studies by highlighting the interplay between language use and cultural norms in media narratives, providing a foundation for future studies on the implications of politeness in language, cultural representation, and media discourse.

Abstract

This research examines the use of negative judgment expressions within the framework of appraisal theory across four Facebook fan pages: Kata Kita (KK), Media Oposisi (MO), Mak Lambe Turah (LT), and Rakyat Oposisi (RO). The methods employed are discourse analysis and quantitative content analysis. Discourse analysis focusing on appraisal analysis is used to explore the evaluative language used in these social media accounts. Findings indicate a prevalent tendency for implicit judgment, with each clause element serving as a potential marker of negative judgment. In the dimension of Engagement, pronouncement expressions are not limited to reported speech; instead, they are often marked by specific lexical elements, including -lah, mah, -nih, -loh, among others. Furthermore, in terms of graduation, these pages employ pragmatic meaning repetition in addition to lexical and semantic repetition. These results suggest that Indonesian evaluative language possesses distinctive characteristics that diverge from English evaluative language, as outlined in Martin and White`s appraisal theory. Quantitative content analysis is used to examine the comparison of patterns or tendencies in the use of evaluative language across Facebook accounts. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of cultural distinctions in the evaluative language styles found in social media discourse.

Abstract

This research delves into how Chinese murals in Kya-Kya, a Chinatown of Surabaya, visually convey meaning from the semiotic landscape point of view. Through Widgren's Theory of Form, Function, Process, and Context, this study seeks to discover how Chinese and Peranakan Cultures are represented in two Chinese Murals in Kya-Kya. The data source of this research is taken from the researchers` photographs of a few representatives of Chinese Murals in Kya-Kya. The data analyzed in this study include text (words), pictures, and colors. The findings show that the murals' text, pictures, colors, and shapes carry messages closely tied to the area's history, culture, and norms. They act as complex communication tools. The first mural uses color and Chinese symbols that match traditional Chinese cultural meanings, showing solid cultural connections. The second mural focuses more on the area's history, especially the influence of Chinese immigrants and Peranakan culture on local business and daily life. This is shown through cultural icons like traditional clothes, food, and building styles, a mixture of Chinese, Peranakan, and Javanese cultures. Both murals celebrate Kya-Kya's rich cultural heritage. The implications of this research extend to developing conservation strategies that respect both the artistic qualities and cultural meanings embedded within the murals, ultimately contributing to a deeper understanding of how communities express and sustain their heritage in contemporary contexts.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between note-taking detail, translation accuracy, and proficiency levels among ESL students engaged in consecutive interpreting. The primary aim is to determine how different levels of proficiency affect the detail of notes taken and the resulting accuracy of translations. Participants, categorized into beginner, intermediate, and advanced proficiency levels, were tasked with taking notes while interpreting a source speech. These notes were then analyzed for detail, and the subsequent translations were evaluated for accuracy using a predefined rubric. The analysis involved descriptive statistics to summarize the central tendencies and variability in note-taking detail and translation accuracy within each proficiency level. Additionally, Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to explore the relationship between note-taking detail and translation accuracy across all participants. The findings revealed that advanced students took significantly more detailed notes compared to beginners and intermediates. Furthermore, there was a positive correlation between the detail of note-taking and translation accuracy, indicating that more detailed notes led to more accurate translations. The study also found that proficiency level moderated this relationship, with the impact of detailed note-taking on translation accuracy being more pronounced at higher proficiency levels.

Abstract

This current study investigates the languages used in the linguistic landscape of a heritage tourism place, Bandar Grissee, Gresik, Indonesia. A total of 125 signs were collected through observation and photograph methods. These signs were then analyzed with focusing on the language choices and the strategy of the languages and the information presented in the signages. The results show that the languages used in the linguistic landscape of Bandar Grissee, both in top-down and bottom-up signs, are presented in the same categories: monolingual, bilingual, and multilingual. However, the language choices vary significantly among the signs. The salience of Indonesian and languages related to the cultural and historical values, such as Javanese, Chinese, Arabic, and Dutch, clearly appears in top-down signs, while bottom-up signs predominantly feature English, which is appealing for commercial purposes. The strategy of the languages and information presented in each sign is also different. Top-down signs predominantly use monolingual languages, while bilingual and multilingual signs employ the overlapping and fragmentary strategies. Conversely, bottom-up signs predominantly use bilingual languages with the fragmentary strategy. These results conclude that signmakers have a significant impact on the languages used, both in the language choices and the strategy, in the linguistic landscape of Bandar Grissee to reach their own goals on making the signages. Thus, the linguistic landscape could be a potential tool for the establishment of sustainable tourism and support the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by preserving cultural heritage.

Abstract

The Dyak Chief Poem describes the poet's experience of witnessing the intersection of personal desires, cultural expectations, and the larger moral consequences of one's actions. This poem also presents a description of the nature of the island of Borneo at that time, which was still full of tropical rainforest. In addition to the themes of love, honor, and culture, this poem incorporates an ecological theme as its primary setting. Therefore, this poem is suitable for analysis using ecological discourse analysis to see whether this poem is eco-beneficial, eco-destructive, or eco-ambivalent. This research aims to determine the ecological ideology contained in this poem through metaphor, evaluation, and salience, using an ecological discourse analysis approach, which is a qualitative research method. The research results reveal that the depiction of nature as human illustrates the power of nature towards humans. In addition, upon examining the appraisal patterns, it becomes clear that only a few, such as appreciation and graduation, are directly related to nature. On the other hand, affect and judgment, on the other hand, pertain to the protagonist's own feelings and are not associated with either nature or the environment. The use of concreteness, transitivity patterns, and hyponyms reveal the salience of the poem. The researchers conclude, based on metaphor, appraisal, and salience patterns, that this poem is an eco-beneficial discourse that depicts nature as an integral part of human life, with which humans should coexist harmoniously.
