Abstract

This research aims to describe the grammatical alliance system found in the Acehnese language. The research method used in this research is descriptive-qualitative. Miles and Huberman Model Qualitative Data Analysis Techniques Miles and Huberman can be carried out in three stages, namely data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. Data was collected through online or offline searches, including from digital text databases and online sources, in Acehnese, namely Acehnese song lyrics. Comparison with relevant literature was also used to ensure the consistency and validity of the findings. Based on this, 16 lines were found in two Aceh-language regional songs. The data found that the Acehnese language belongs to the accusative type, which treats S the same as A and gives a gives a different treatment to P (S = A ≠ P).

Abstract

This article is entitled Aliansi Gramatikal Na Lingua Melayu: Study of Linguistic Typology. This study of the Malay language's grammatical alliance aims to understand (1) the basic construction of clauses, (2) the construction of complex sentences, (3) the pivotal system, and (4) ultimately the definition of the grammar alliance system. This study uses the theory of language typology as the main theory proposed by Comrie. (1988). These research data are clauses and sentences. Qualitative descriptive. This approach aims to understand the existence of the overlap of different external and internal symptoms of the subject being the subject of the study. Data from the coordinative construction and subordinative construction of the Malay language typologically leads to the finding that in syntax, the Malay languages treat S equally with A, and give different treatment to P (S`=`A`≠ P). The Malay language is a group of languages that works with the S/A pivot system. A system of grammatical alliances such as this suggests that Malay is syntaxically a language of nominative-akusative type. Observing the behavior of S on the intransitive clause with the behaviour of A and P on the transitive clauses of Malay language which indicates that S is equal to A and equally equal with P, then morphologically Malay language has a tendency as a nominative-akusative language.

Abstract

This research explores the existence of ergative language features in the Sibolga Coastal dialect. Qualitative descriptive methods were used to analyze data obtained from nine folktale titles in Bunga Rampai Rakyat Tapanuli Tengah (The anthology of central Tapanuli folktales). Of the nine stories, ten clauses were found to show an ergative pattern, where the subject in the first clause acts as the object in the second clause. The findings show that the Sibolga Coastal dialect language has the characteristics of an ergative language in its structure, with a pattern where the subject of the first clause becomes the object of the following clause. These findings indicate a tendency to use ergative language features in the Sibolga Coastal dialect. This research concludes that the Sibolga Coastal dialect uses ergative language features, although in limited quantities. These findings contribute to understanding the syntactic structure of the Sibolga Coastal language and provide new insights into the phenomenon of ergative language in the local context. The implications of this research include supporting the development of linguistic studies and regional language studies and contributing to language teaching and translation in the region. Future research can be expanded to further investigate the features of ergative language in the Sibolga Coastal dialect and the context of its use in daily interactions.

Abstract

This study investigated whether extensive and comprehensive oral recasting is more effective than explicit correction. The primary focus was on how feedback affects English language learning. Recasts that are intensive are defined as those that receive feedback on a single topic, whereas extensive feedback is defined as errors on multiple subjects and domains. Four groups of ten students each were formed from forty students from a Senior High School. A general English book called Think 4, a storybook, and an English grammar book called Grammar in Use were the study's instruments. In line with the study's aims, they were given feedback that was either explicit or implicit, thorough or in-depth. In accordance with the study's aims, they were given feedback that was either explicit or implicit, long or brief. The findings showed that there wasn't much of a difference between students who got implicit and explicit feedback. Additionally, it was discovered that every technique had the same effect on students' capacity to communicate.

Abstract

This research explores the textual metafunction of the choir song "Elijah Rock" by Moses Hogan through the lens of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), employing Suzanne Eggins' model of analysis. By examining the song's lyrical structure, the study aims to uncover how thematic organization, cohesion, and information flow contribute to the overall meaning and emotional impact of the piece. The analysis identifies key thematic elements, such as the recurring motif of "Elijah," as topical theme; the use of other topical themes such as: “come on”, “tell”, “comin’ up”,  “Satan”; “He”; and “I”; the use of textual theme “if” and “Oh” highlights the extensive use of repetition and parallelism, which enhance textual coherence. Through a qualitative content analysis, the research demonstrates how linguistic features not only create a unified text but also resonate with the cultural and historical significance of African American spirituals. The findings reveal that the interplay between textual structure and musical expression plays a vital role in conveying the song's message and engaging audiences. This study contributes to the growing body of literature on the intersection of linguistics and music, offering valuable insights for future research in both fields.

Abstract

The political, social and cultural phenomena leading up to the general elections, both presidential and legislative elections are interesting to observe. The battle that endangers the existence of the Republic of Indonesia is precisely at the supporting or lower layers. The elites can easily say to maintain a peaceful atmosphere, but at the lower layers, narratives of mutual downfall are scattered in the social media universe. In discrediting opponents, it is not uncommon to upload intolerant expressions. The expression of intolerance is sometimes blatant, some are packaged with symbolic language, which only certain people can interpret depending on their intellectual, emotional and spiritual levels. Expressions that are presumed to have intolerant nuances can be in the form of short narratives, rather long, or relatively long, and also in the form of poetry. With a dialectical hermeneutic approach, the expressions in social media can be understood and interpreted.

Abstract

MOBA games contain highly intriguing narrative assets that are worth exploring. In the MOBA game Mobile Legends, narrative assets are found in the Mastery Code menu. Interestingly, these narrative assets are not always structured as traditional narratives; they can also appear in other textual genres. The aim of this research is to describe how genre functions as a supporting element in the characterization of the hero protagonist. Additionally, this study analyzes the Attitude System, a tool within the Appraisal framework, to understand how it contributes to the characterization of the hero protagonist. This research adopts a qualitative, descriptive approach, as it aims to naturally describe the observed phenomena.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the discourse of myth and suicide fatality depicted in the film Lamun Sumelang. Norman Fairclough's critical discourse analysis theory is used in this study and based on the results of the analysis, the film Lamun Sumelang basically interprets the myth as a belief that develops among the people in Gunung Kidul and becomes a cultural culture even though the myth cannot be proven scientifically. The myth of pulung gantung is considered a bad omen. Meanwhile, suicide fatality in the film Lamun Sumelang is depicted as a manifestation of despair, loneliness, and giving up on circumstances. However, on the other hand, it also illustrates the desire for other people's attention to the situation at hand.

Abstract

The importance of Jesus as a holy figure, as well as the anguish and controversy that surrounded his death, have motivated us to conduct an interdisciplinary investigation of the events surrounding his crucifixion. As a result, this study will look at the crucifixion and death of Jesus through the linguistic. This research is to examine many signs contained in the Gospel of John 19:29 and the Gospel of John 19:30. This research will look at sour grapes as a signifier and sponge as a signified. Aside from that, the researchers would like to look into the hidden meaning or myth in the words "it is finished" that Christ said. This research employs Roland Barthes' semiotics to deconstruct the meaning of John' gospel. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach. The approach used in this research is data reduction.
