Abstract

This study explores politeness strategies in conversations about transgender perspectives, using Brown and Levinson's (1987) framework. The research employed a qualitative method, analyzing recorded conversations between male and female participants discussing transgender issues from social and religious perspectives. The analysis identifies four main strategies: positive politeness, negative politeness, bald-on record, and off-record. Positive politeness was the most frequently used strategy, with male speakers employing it 14 times and female speakers 7 times, primarily through agreement, repetition, and joking. Negative politeness strategies appeared 10 times, equally distributed between genders, using indirectness and questions. Bald-on record strategies were used 14 times, mostly by female speakers, indicating their tendency for direct communication. The off-record strategy was minimally used, occurring only once by a male speaker. The study finds that participants' close relationships and shared knowledge facilitated the frequent use of positive politeness and bald-on record strategies. Notably, male speakers were more polite, often using positive politeness, while female speakers were more direct and explicit, especially on sensitive topics. This research highlights the influence of social dynamics and cultural norms on politeness strategies in discussions about transgender issues.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze how Anastasia portrays themes of liberal feminism and individualism. It investigates how the protagonist’s journey embodies feminist ideals of self-discovery, resilience, and the defiance of gender expectations. Grounded in liberal feminist theory, which emphasizes personal autonomy and equality before the law (McMillan, 2009); this study employs qualitative descriptive methods to explore how Anastasia’s narrative reflects these principles. Themes such as identity formation, gender norms, and personal agency are analyzed through the protagonist’s experiences. The analysis reveals that Anastasia challenges traditional gender roles by portraying feminine traits—compassion, resilience, and emotional intelligence—as strengths rather than weaknesses. The protagonist’s journey from orphaned amnesiac to rediscovered princess illustrates themes of empowerment and self-determination within a feminist framework. The film’s depiction of Anastasia’s relationships and challenges underscores the broader feminist discourse on identity and societal expectations. By confronting external pressures and embracing her true self, Anastasia embodies the resilience and agency central to feminist ideals. Through its narrative complexity and thematic depth, Anastasia contributes meaningfully to feminist discourse. It celebrates personal growth; challenges gender stereotypes, and advocates for women’s empowerment. The study concludes with reflections on the enduring relevance of feminist themes in animated media and their impact on audiences.

Abstract

This research aims to describe the naming of sub-villages and the diversity of cultural vocabulary in Bawodesolo Village, Gunungsitoli District, Gunungsitoli City, North Sumatra Province. The focus of this research is on three sub-villages: Delafiga, Hilinangea, and Simanaere. Using a phenomenological research design, this study involves semi-structured interviews with local residents to understand the meanings and cultural contexts of these sub-village names. The results of the research show that the sub-village names reflect the cultural identity, history, and values of the local community. Names such as "Delafiga" and "Simanaere" are not only geographical markers but also hold historical narratives and cultural concepts that are significant to the community. The analysis of cultural vocabulary reveals that the terms used by the residents reflect their relationship with the environment, spiritual beliefs, and social practices. This study highlights the importance of toponymy in understanding cultural identity and suggests that regional development policies should consider the cultural values embedded in place names. This research contributes to the preservation of local cultural heritage and provides valuable insights for further studies on cultural dynamics in this area.

Abstract

Louisa May Alcott's Little Women, a seminal work in American literature, profoundly explores the roles, aspirations, and challenges faced by women in the 19th century. Set against the backdrop of the American Civil War and its aftermath, the novel follows the lives of the March sisters—Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy—as they navigate the complexities of womanhood in a society governed by rigid gender norms. Through rich character development and a compelling narrative, Little Women offers insight into the evolving landscape of women's rights and feminist thought during a pivotal era in American history. This paper aims to analyze the representation of feminism in Little Women, examining how the novel both conforms to and challenges traditional gender expectations. Drawing on liberal, Marxist, existentialist, and radical feminist theories, the paper explores various aspects of the March sisters' experiences, shedding light on their pursuit of autonomy, independence, and self-determination. Through a comprehensive analysis of key passages and character dynamics, the study uncovers the ways in which Alcott's work contributes to the broader discourse surrounding women's rights and gender equality.

This research’s objectives are to describe the extrinsic element that are the causes, types and effects of cyber-bullying in the novel. This research used psychological approach in its method and the descriptive qualitative method for its research design. Through the use of the Lifestyle-Routine Activity Theory by Candace et al. (2023) a theory to determine the likelihood of victimization, the researcher found that the cyber-bullying in this novel happened because of three factors: motivated offender, target suitability, absence of guardianship. The motivated offender factor happened because the culprit of the cyber-bullying was driven to do the cyber-bullying, target suitability factor happened because the victim of the cyber-bullying had done something prior that made her suitable to be targeted by the perpetrator, the absence of guardianship happened because no real elders in the novel ever tried to protect or supervised the victim. Then in terms of types of cyber-bullying, the researcher found that there are five types of cyber-bullying that are used in the novel. The types of cyber-bullying are: online harassment, flaming, denigration, photograph & video, fraping. As for the effects, the researcher found there are three kinds of effect from the cyber-bullying, that are displayed by the main character in the novel. They are: academic effect, which disrupts the main character’s school life, the social effect that ruined the main character’s interaction with her peers, and finally the emotional effect that disturbed the psyche of the main character.

Abstract

Media have been frequently emphasizing the information through headlines to as it usually conveys a catchy advertising-style headline and retrieves the gist of the story. Regardless of its contents, the headline becomes one of the most significant factors in attracting as much attention as possible from the readers. Therefore, choosing the appropriate headlines is crucial for the media to produce their intention properly to the readers. One of the ways is using nominalization. This research demonstrates the effects of nominalization on the headlines taken from NBCUniversal. The eight effects of nominalization by Machin and Mayr is utilized as the main theory of this study. Utilizing a qualitative method rooted in the Critical Discourse Analysis approach, the research data is the headlines sourced from the Coronation of King Charles III on NBCUniversal. From the total of eight effects, this study found six effects of nominalizations that appeared on the headlines of NBCUniversal media including, people and responsibilities are removed, the sense of time is removed, the action becomes a thing, the common usage as stable entities, the avoidance of the agent while accumulating a sense of action in the text, andthe compressed of the story details. The study also proved that understanding nominalization theory can help in generating captivating headlines to attract readers’ attention effectively.

Abstract

This study investigates the phenomenon of code-switching in the YouTube video titled "Alasan Aku Milih S2 di Harvard Walau Tanpa Beasiswa" by Zhafira Aqyla, an Indonesian YouTuber and Harvard graduate. The research focuses on identifying the types and functions of code-switching in her video using a sociolinguistic framework. Poplack's typology of code-switching—comprising inter-sentential, intra-sentential, and tag-switching guides the analysis. The results show that intra-sentential switching is the dominant type, making up 89.48% of the occurrences. This frequent integration of Indonesian and English within sentences suggests the speaker's ease in navigating both languages to convey ideas more precisely and efficiently. The study also highlights the influence of Zhafira's international educational background and professional environment on her code-switching behaviour, emphasizing her bilingual identity. These findings contribute to the broader understanding of bilingualism in social media contexts, particularly among educated individuals in global settings.
