Abstract

This research aims to identify the types of figurative language as well as the denotative and connotative meanings in the lyrics of Niki's song "Blue Moon," released in June 2024. The song portrays a complex emotional journey about a past relationship. This qualitative descriptive study aims to explain and provide a detailed description of the types of figurative language and the meanings within the song, using Abrams' theory of figurative language and Keraf's theory of meaning. The researcher found 22 lines in the song that can be categorized into figurative language, including metaphor, hyperbole, oxymoron, simile, paradox, and understatement. Most of the figurative language used in the song is metaphor, contributing to the beautiful and emotionally charged lyrics of "Blue Moon" by Niki.

Abstract

This research examines the use of manipulative language in the film Orphan by David Leslie Jhonson a story by Alex Mace (2009), focusing on the character Esther who, despite her innocent appearance, uses sophisticated linguistic strategies to influence, deceive, and control others to achieve her hidden goals, by employing emotional framing, exploiting sympathy, and combining lies with incomplete thrust, Esther successfully manipulates how people around her perceive Esther. This research will analyse these manipulation tactics from psychological and linguistic perspectives, emphasizing the power and control dynamics demonstrated through Esther's character in this Orphan film. Additionally, this research compares the manipulative language in the film with its real-world applications in interpersonal relationships involving varying degrees of power. The research focuses on Esther’s conversation with other characters to show how she uses language to manipulate, which heightens narrative tension, influences audience perception, and reflects human behaviour.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the word formation processes found in English slang used in the Instagram captions posted by Cardi B. A qualitative descriptive method was employed to explore the linguistic features of slang expressions in Cardi B’s captions. The analysis is grounded in Yule’s theory of word formation processes. Data were collected using documentation techniques, involving close observation and careful transcription of textscontaining slang elements. The slang words identified were then classified according to theirword formation types and analyzed based on the relevant theoretical framework. The findings reveal that eight out of ten types of word formation processes proposed by Yule are present inCardi B’s Instagram captions. These include: (1) Clipping, (2) Derivation, (3) Coinage, (4)Blending, (5) Acronym, (6) Conversion, (7) Compounding, and (8) Borrowing. The most frequently occurring type was clipping, which appeared in 26 instances (52%). This suggeststhat Cardi B tends to favor concise word forms to create a casual, rapid, and easily understoodlinguistic style. Such a tendency reflects the informal nature of urban language, typical of socialmedia discourse and popular culture.

Abstract

This paper explores how narrative suspense is constructed in the works of Shirley Jackson and Jordan Peele. A central technique employed by both artists is the use of layered storytelling that builds tension through the interplay of two interconnected narrative strands. An analysis of Jackson’s fiction and Peele’s films demonstrates that the suspense in their works does not rely on traditional Gothic tropes, but rather on carefully designed plots that deliberately guide and manipulate audience attention. The article begins by outlining the concept of narrative suspense, followed by an examination of the structural techniques employed by Jackson and Peele, and concludes with an analysis of specific narrative strategies in their respective works. By adopting a comparative approach, this study offers insights into the mechanics of suspense storytelling across different media.
