Abstract

This research aims to explore the importance of teaching English to young learners. Currently, English language education is not limited to high schools but also extends to young learners' education, both in Indonesia and in other countries. In fact, it is more advantageous to begin learning English at a young age because young learners are in their golden age, during which their memory is exceptionally sharp, facilitating the memorization and learning of new concepts. Prioritizing English language education for young learners is crucial as it equips children with the proficiency in English language skills required for their subsequent levels of education. The research methodology used in this study includes observation, documentation, interviews, and field notes. The results of this research indicate that the process of teaching English to young learners involves a structured lesson plan arranged by the tutor and language materials provided by the Oxford University Press. Teaching techniques for young learners include cooperative learning, the direct method, total physical response, the grammar-translation method, and drilling. Effective teaching media for young learners include flashcards and educational games. Challenges in teaching English to young learners include crowded classrooms, limited individual attention, and complexity. However, supportive factors include creating an English-immersive environment.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the use of first-person pronouns in NIKI's song lyrics, focusing on their frequency, pattern, and context of usage. The research employs a descriptive qualitative-quantitative approach, combining corpus analysis with contextual interpretation. The data consists of song lyrics from NIKI's albums and popular tracks, formatted into a compatible text file (.txt) for analysis using AntConc software version 4.3.1. Data collection involved gathering lyrics from reliable sources, cleaning the data, and preparing it for analysis. The analysis process included identifying the frequency of first-person pronouns, observing distribution patterns through the concordance feature, and interpreting the context and meanings of pronoun usage. The findings reveal a dominance of the pronoun "I" (589 occurrences) over "We" (138 occurrences), indicating a focus on individual experiences and emotions in NIKI's lyrics. The study identifies various patterns, including "I + to be," which reflects deep emotional states, self-reflection, and regret; "I + modal," which conveys feelings and desires; and "I + verb," which directly expresses actions and emotions. Additionally, the "We" patterns, such as "We + To Be" and "We + Modal," illustrate collective experiences, possibilities, and relationship dynamics. The results highlight the contrasting roles of individual and collective perspectives in NIKI’s songwriting, enriching the emotional depth of her lyrics.

Abstract

This research analyses the expression of metaphors in the Selected James Arthur's song In this research, the author analyzes the types of metaphors that are used based on Lakoff & Johnson's theory in James Arthur's song lyrics. By using the qualitative method, Metaphor is the most used figurative language to express sadness in James Arthur's song lyrics. Based on the analysis of 25 metaphors, it was found that conceptual metaphor was the most dominant type, with a frequency of 10 times (40%). Conceptual metaphors describe the relationship between one idea and another more concrete idea, such as describing life as a journey. This type helps the listener or reader understand abstract concepts in a more familiar and digestible way. Ontological metaphors took second place with a frequency of 9 times (36%). This type transforms an abstract or formless experience into something more concrete, such as emotions described as objects that can be touched or moved. The use of this metaphor often makes it easier for someone to visualize complex ideas. Meanwhile, orientational metaphors appeared 6 times (24%). Overall, these results suggest that conceptual metaphors are more widely used, perhaps due to their flexibility in conveying abstract ideas, whereas ontological and orientational metaphors complement the narrative more concretely and emotionally

Abstract

This article investigates the dynamics of youth psychology and identity transformation reflected in Pramoedya Ananta Toer's Bumi Manusia, with an emphasis on the role of education as a crucial variable in character building and self-understanding. Through the character of Minke, the author examines the internal and external conflicts faced by the younger generation in the context of colonialism, as well as how education functions as an instrument to achieve social awareness and a more complex identity. The research method applied in this article is qualitative analysis with sociological and psychological approaches. Data were obtained through an in-depth reading of the novel's text, accompanied by a study of relevant literature to support the analysis. This approach allows the researcher to explore the deeper meaning and context of Minke's experiences and connect the themes of education and identity to the social reality of the time. The results of the analysis show that education does not only functions as a means of transferring knowledge but also as a transformation process that encourages youth to explore cultural values and search for identity amid social challenges. This article is expected to provide new insights into the relevance of education in shaping the identity of the younger generation in the context of Indonesian history and culture.
