Abstract

This research aimed at describing the instructional strategies used by the lecturers in knowledge and language skills subjects in English for both instructional and management talks. The method employed was an exploratory descriptive qualitative method in which the observation and open-ended interviews with individuals were conducted. The data resources were lecturer talk in knowledge and skill subjects consisting of seven lecturers. The result of this research shows that the lecturers both in knowledge and language skills employed whole class, group/pair, and individual instructional strategies. The reasons for utilizing them lied on the nature of the subject, the purpose and objectives of each sub course material to scan and see the general ability and the basic interpersonal communication skills of the students in English. Based on these findings, it implicitly takes into account that varying instructional strategies bridge the lecturers to manage their talks in EFL classroom interaction to foster and sharpen the students’ English language development.

Abstract

This study evaluates the Artificial Intelligence (AI) literacy of university lecturers and examines its subsequent impact on their academic performance, covering teaching, research, and administrative tasks. With the rapid advancement of generative AI in education, AI literacy is crucial for maximizing efficiency and effectiveness. A mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative thematic interviews, was employed to measure understanding, needs, and perceived impact. The quantitative results reveal a high conceptual AI literacy (average score: 4.36) among lecturers, alongside strong optimism regarding AI’s transformative role in education (90.9% believing in major change). Quantitatively, AI significantly increases efficiency in lecture preparation and research productivity. Qualitatively, however, the implementation is challenged by critical issues of academic integrity and a lack of systemic readiness (regulations, infrastructure). The key finding is the dual role of AI: it acts as a valuable "thinking partner" that boosts creativity and productivity, yet simultaneously introduces ethical concerns regarding humanistic teaching and student dependency. The study concludes that continuous, specific training on AI ethics and prompt engineering is an urgent institutional necessity to harness AI’s benefits responsibly.

Abstract

This paper explores how linguistic choices in corporate strategy discourse reflect strategic goals—informing, persuading, and engaging—through the lens of Halliday’s Systemic Functional Linguistics and Jakobson’s Communication Model. Using data from the video “The Great Debate on Corporate Strategy”, the study analyzes how expert speakers deploy ideational, interpersonal, and textual functions (Halliday) alongside referential, conative, emotive, and poetic functions (Jakobson). The findings reveal that corporate discourse is multifunctional, blending technical precision, rhetorical appeal, and stylistic engagement to achieve communicative impact. The paper concludes that integrating both linguistic frameworks offers a comprehensive understanding of strategic speech in professional contexts.

Abstract

Psycholinguistics is a core theoretical course in English Language Teaching (ELT) programmes, yet it is often perceived as challenging by EFL undergraduates due to its abstract concepts and cognitive demands. This study explores pedagogical challenges in bridging psycholinguistic theory and student learning in an EFL higher education context. Adopting a classroom-based qualitative case study design, the research was conducted in an undergraduate psycholinguistics course within an English education programme. Data were collected through classroom observations, student reflective journals, focus group discussions, and document analysis. Thematic analysis revealed several key challenges, including the abstract nature of theoretical concepts, difficulties in mediating theory through pedagogical practices, reduced student engagement during explanation-dominated instruction, and the linguistic demands of learning theory in English. The findings highlight the central role of pedagogical mediation in supporting students’ conceptual understanding and engagement in theory-oriented courses. Rather than viewing students’ difficulties as individual deficits, the study underscores the importance of examining pedagogy as a situated and relational practice shaped by teacher cognition and classroom context. The study offers pedagogical implications for EFL lecturers and teacher education programmes seeking to make psycholinguistics and other theory-based courses more accessible and meaningful for undergraduate learners

Abstract

This study explains how a Bugis sanro (traditional healer) constructs power through ritual speech in healing practices in Wajo, South Sulawesi. Employing a qualitative descriptive method, the researcher gathered data through direct observation, interviews, and audio-video recordings of the healing rituals. The analysis shows that the sanro’s authority is mainly built through two linguistic processes: contextualization and entextualization. First, contextualization is characterized by it- cleft construction and person deictic (first person, second person, third person, and first (inclusive)). Second, entextualization occurs when the sanro brings in Qur’anic verses, ancestral blessings, traditional Bugis mantras, and inherited ritual formulas. This entextualization occurs through the process of decontextualization and recontextualization. These texts, taken from older traditions and sacred sources, carry strong cultural and religious legitimacy. When the sanro inserts these texts into the healing moment, they strengthen her credibility and reinforce the belief that her words hold spiritual force. Together, these two processes show how ritual speech enables the sanro to gain trust, maintain authority, and perform effective healing.

Abstract

This study examines how traditional Bugis verbal art, particularly materials circulating in Bone, generates aesthetic force through patterned language while simultaneously articulating ethical meaning. Focusing on two forms widely recognised in Bugis cultural practice pappaseng (advice or wisdom sayings) and elong (poetic song or verse), the study approaches these texts as objects of literary analysis within a stylistic framework. Using qualitative document analysis and close stylistic reading, six short excerpts are analysed, drawn from publicly available sources that include a Bone court dialogue, pappaseng formulas, a widely cited reso proverb, and two elong stanzas. Across the excerpts, recurrent stylistic devices include parallel question answer framing, triadic listing, rhythmic clause chaining, symbolic ‘fence’ (sappo) metaphors, and hyperbolic imagery. These patterned forms condense moral reasoning into memorable verbal structures, enabling values such as lempu’ (integrity), siri’ (honour/shame), and reso (persevering effort) to be articulated, recalled, and circulated in everyday interaction. As the corpus is documentary rather than field recorded, the interpretations advanced here remain text centred and open to further refinement through engagement with Bugis speakers and cultural practitioners.

Abstract

This study investigates how gendered and racial meanings are constructed through word-level language choices in Grace M. Cho’s memoir Tastes Like War (2021) using a feminist stylistic approach. Drawing on Sara Mills’ theory of gendered representation and evaluative language, supported by insights from Robin Lakoff and Dale Spender, the researcher examines how naming practices, evaluative adjectives, and role descriptions position female characters within patriarchal and racialized discourses. The study employs a descriptive qualitative method based on close textual reading and lexical analysis. The primary data consist of words, phrases, and expressions referring to female characters, particularly Cho’s mother, while secondary data include feminist stylistic scholarship and related studies on memoir and gender. The findings show that Kongja is frequently identified through relational and ethnic labels, while evaluative adjectives and prescriptive expressions frame her within norms of motherhood, domesticity, and female vulnerability. Pathologizing and racialized terms further construct deviation from ideal femininity as abnormal or stigmatized. At the same time, the memoir strategically reuses patriarchal language with ironic distance, exposing and questioning the ideological judgments imposed on immigrant womanhood. The study concludes that feminist stylistics is an effective framework for revealing how memoir language both reproduces and critiques gendered and racialized constructions of women’s identities.Keywords: feminist stylistics, naming

Abstract

The American youth in the twentieth century experienced the era of modernism which the world turn into modern and affected many ascpects of their lives, especially on their youth identity. The research aims at finding out how the modernism affected the American youth identity as reflected in the character’s performance throughout the story. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method with a sociology of literature approach. The data in this research were collected from the descriptions and utterances of the characters and narrator in the novel. The research reveals that the American youth identity in the twentieth century can be observed through their lifestyle, in which the youth already had become accustomed to smoking, drinking and party habits. All these habits continued even after the end of World War I, but there is a difference in the way they do it as the youth faced different situations. The popularity also became an important aspect for the youth at that time. The American values such as individualism and cooperation are also shown in their lives. Individualism value is shown when they believe in themselves and work harder to get what they want, while the cooperation appear through the support from their close relatives when they faced problems. Modernism has brought numerous advantages to humanity through various technological and social developments, but it has also significantly influenced economic life, leading money and business to become central concerns for most of Americans.

Abstract

This study conducts a contrastive analysis of noun formation in Malay and English, focusing specifically on affixation processes. The research aims to identify and describe the types of affixes used in forming nouns in both languages, including prefixes, suffixes, infixes, and confixes, and to examine the similarities and differences between the two morphological systems. A descriptive qualitative design was applied, with data collected from written texts, including books and magazines in both Malay and English. The data were analyzed by classifying affixed words according to affix type and examining their morphological functions in noun formation. The findings reveal that both Malay and English utilize affixation in noun formation, with some shared meanings despite different forms. Malay employs prefixes, suffixes, infixes, and confixes, while English primarily uses prefixes and suffixes. Affix variation in English occurs mainly in suffixes, whereas in Malay it occurs predominantly in prefixes. The effects on base words also differ: English noun formation involves both letter mutation and omission, while Malay mainly involves mutation. Formation patterns vary according to the types of base words in each language. This study contributes to the field of morphology and contrastive linguistics by providing a systematic comparison between two languages from different language families. The findings are valuable for language learners, particularly those with a Malay background studying English, as understanding these structural differences can enhance morphological awareness and support vocabulary development.
