Abstract

By examining the patterns of code-switching and code-mixing among Ma'soem University fourth-semester English education students, this study aims to analyze the pattern of code-switching and code-mixing in speaking classes. The study employs a qualitative descriptive methodology, capturing instances of these linguistic behaviors through observations, interviews, and documentation. The study groups communicative functions, contextual triggers, and different types of language alternation according to the theories of Grosjean (1982), Myers-Scotton (1993), and Muysken (2000). The results show that code-switching and code-mixing improve comprehension, facilitate cross-cultural learning, and greatly improve students' educational experiences. The most common pattern is insertional code-switching, which enables students to use vocabulary from several languages to more accurately communicate complicated ideas, especially when literal translations are inadequate. On the other hand, tag-switching seems to be the least common and frequently happens accidentally. The complex interplay among language proficiency, communicative requirements, and cultural identity in the context of education is reflected in these patterns. The results of this study imply that code-switching and code-mixing are essential to successful communication, cultural expression, and language acquisition rather than just being linguistic phenomena.

Abstract

This article examines Lee Harker's character growth in movie "Longlegs", concentrating on her emotional journey and the significance of family ties. The study looks at how Harker's tragic history and psychic talents influence her identity as an FBI agent, drawing on Hurlock's theory on emotional determinants. The movie is divided into three sections, each of which shows a different aspect of Harker's personality as she faces Longlegs, the serial murderer. The results demonstrate how Harker's journey exemplifies more general concepts of morality, autonomy, and the effects of hereditary trauma. The emotional burden of her family history affects her decision-making and interpersonal interactions while she conducts her inquiry, highlighting the significance of emotional intelligence in overcoming hardship. Ultimately, this approach emphasizes how important story is as a tool for examining nuanced human experiences in both literature and film. The article's focus on Harker's character arc illustrates the importance of storytelling in forming social ideals and interpersonal relationships while also enhancing our knowledge of how tales reflect and impact views of trauma and personal progress.
