Abstract

This paper explores the negative parenting styles employed in the second anime series adaptation of Fruits Basket (2019 - 2021) and the effects on the children, focusing on Ren Sohma, Akito Sohma’s mother, and Isuzu Sohma’s parents as well as the two children. The main theory in this analysis is the parenting styles theory by Diana Baumrind, Eleanor Maccoby, and John Martin. While Ren Sohma’s extreme competitiveness, abuse, and neglect resulted in Akito's emotional hunger, violent tendencies, and rebellion, Isuzu’s parents’ superficial care, abuse, and abandonment led to Isuzu’s low self-worth and self-isolation. This study proves that although both children suffer from authoritarian and neglectful parenting, the different methods that their parents employ lead to different results. Thus, this analysis highlights the long-lasting effects of the negative parenting styles and the varying impacts they have on children.

Abstract

This study investigates the presuppositions in Yang Jong Hoon’s utterances in the series "Law School". This study aims to understand how presuppositions are used by lawyers and prosecutors. The theories used are by Yule (1996, 2020). The findings reveal the similarities and differences in the use of presuppositions when Yang Jong Hoon was a prosecutor and a lawyer. A similarity between both roles is that factive presupposition only occurred once as these professions require credibility. The most prominent types of presupposition, however, show differences. In Yang Jong Hoon’s utterances as a prosecutor, existential presupposition appears most frequently to successfully charge the defendant as guilty, often done by presenting proof. In contrast, in Yang Jong Hoon’s utterances as a lawyer, lexical presupposition appears most frequently to recount the situation and thus use change-of-state verbs. The study concludes that an understanding and strategic use of presuppositions are essential in legal debates.

Abstract

This study investigates the speech acts that are present within Shameika’s polite and impolite utterances as responses to Mr. Clark in the movie “The Ron Clark Story”. It is aimed to understand how the compatibility between illocutionary act and intended perlocutionary effect can indicate the politeness degree in educational settings by students and teacher. This research addresses a gap in the relation between speech act and politeness degree within educational context, particularly focusing on Shameika as a student. The analysis is based on theories by Austin (1962), Short (1997), Brown and Levinson (1978), Culpeper (2011), and Brown and Prieto (2017). The findings reveal that there is a relation between speech act and politeness degree. The illocutionary act of Shameika’s impolite utterances that are directed toward Mr. Clark cannot fulfil Mr. Clark’s intended perlocutionary effect, even when she uses mock impoliteness when their relationship is already close. Meanwhile, the illocutionary act of Shameika’s polite utterances that are directed toward Mr. Clark can fulfil Mr. Clark’s intended perlocutionary effect, even if the polite utterance is not produced voluntarily by Shameika. The study concludes that one of the most effective ways for a student to produce polite utterances toward a teacher is by fulfilling the teacher’s intention.

Abstract

This study aims to find out the flouted maxims in Erin Gruwell’s utterances from the movie Freedom Writers. Additionally, the goal of this study is to find the types of politeness implied in Erin Gruwell’s flouted maxims. To conduct this study, the writer used the theory of flouting maxims by Cutting and Fordyce (2020) and the politeness theory by Holmes (2013). Next, the writer employed the descriptive qualitative approach by Creswell and Creswell (2018) and Creswell (2009). The writer watched the movie thoroughly, took notes on the utterances and timeframe, and applied the two-digit numbering system to classify the data. As a result, the writer found that Erin Gruwell flouted all the types of flouting maxims in her utterances during teaching and learning activities. Next, the writer also found that Erin Gruwell employed positive politeness in all types of her flouted maxims, but she used negative politeness in only some types of her flouted maxims. The writer concluded that Erin Gruwell employs positive politeness in all types of her flouted maxims because she always wants to approach her students better, motivate them to study more, know her students more personally, and have a closer relationship with them. Meanwhile, Erin employed negative politeness in just three types to remind her students of their status differences, use her role as a teacher to command them, and tell them to work on themselves as students. From these findings, the writer concluded that flouted maxims can make messages sound more appropriate and acceptable. Lastly, people who flout the maxim do not always want to be uncooperative or cause trouble for their listeners. They may have good intentions behind their flouted maxims, such as maintaining harmony and avoiding social conflicts to be polite.

Abstract

This study examined the use of emoji in TikTok comments about Prabowo Subianto from the first presidential debate. This study applied Yus’ (2014) framework which identifies eight distinct emoji functions. Conducted through a qualitative analysis of 50 comments collected on the day of the video’s release, the findings indicated that emoji used performed all functions except for the illocutionary force modifier. The emoji used suggest vibrant and expressive interactions, where the TikTok users reacted both light-heartedly and critically. The absence of illocutionary force modifiers aligns with Prabowo Subianto's direct communication style, which prompts more straightforward responses from the TikTok users.

Abstract

This study was conducted to find out the interactional styles used in Joy Mangano’s utterances from the 2015 Joy movie, specifically when she was in negotiation scenes. This study used the theory of interactional styles by Holmes (2006) and supporting theory of negotiation by Lewicki et al. (2003). This study used a qualitative approach to analyze the data. The findings found that Joy Mangano was dominant to use more masculine interactional styles in the outcome of successful and unsuccessful negotiation scenes. This can happen because of specific reasons as mentioned in the findings and discussions of this study. The study expected more worthwhile and insightful research to find out whether particular configurations of either feminine or masculine interactional styles may definitely have something to contribute to the negotiation outcome.

Abstract

This study analyzes Jerome Polin’s and Livy Renata’s use of code-mixing in a Jerome Goes to School vlog. Muysken’s (2000) code-mixing theory is used as the primary framework, supported by Holmes’ (2013) social factors theory. A qualitative approach is employed, complemented by numerical data. The findings reveal six similarities and five differences in Jerome Polin’s and Livy Renata’s code-mixing practices. Similarities include the use of all three types of code-mixing (insertion, alternation, and congruent lexicalization), with insertion being the most common and congruent lexicalization the least common. Both speakers also exhibit high consistency in their use of constituency indicators and the uniform application of alternation’s and insertion’s four indicators. Differences include Jerome Polin’s higher use of insertion and lower use of congruent lexicalization, contrasted with Livy Renata’s higher use of congruent lexicalization and specific elements switched. The study highlights how participants’ roles (host and guest), the setting (educational and entertaining vlog), topic (school tour), and function (informing and engaging viewers) influence their code-mixing practices. Future research should analyze multiple episodes and content types or should focus on audience reception and comprehension related to the use of code-mixing in digital media.

Abstract

This study examines the persuasive strategies employed by Rishi Sunak and Joe Biden in their speeches addressing the COVID-19 pandemic, drawing on theories by Beebe and Beebe (2012, 2017). Utilizing a qualitative methodology, excerpts from their speeches were analyzed to identify specific strategies. The analysis revealed that Rishi Sunak employed inductive reasoning, deductive reasoning, causal reasoning, credible evidence, new evidence, specific evidence, evidence to tell a story, concrete examples, emotion-arousing words, and appeal to several emotions (hope, pride, and courage). While Joe Biden used inductive reasoning, deductive reasoning, causal reasoning, credible evidence, specific evidence, evidence to tell a story, concrete examples, emotion-arousing words, fear appeals, and appeal to several emotions (hope, pride, and courage). In conclusion, despite differences in age, the persuasive strategies of Rishi Sunak and Joe Biden were primarily shaped by the topic and context of their speeches.

Abstract

This study applies Michel Foucault’s theory of power and resistance to explore how the school maintains control over students and how the students fight back. It reveals how the school uses power/knowledge to create rules and disciplinary power to enforce the system and rules in maintaining control. Students resist through micro-resistance by questioning the system and rules, and through strategic, tactical, and counter-conduct resistance by protesting the system and rules. The analysis shows the school establishes control by informing and threatening students, and by intimidating and punishing them. To resist, students question the rules in the conversations with friends and the headmaster, and protest by breaking the teacher’s metronome and complaining to the government. This study concludes that the school’s use of violence to maintain power contradicts Foucault's concept of power and leads to students' resistance, highlighting their desire for a fairer environment.
