Abstract

Alternate Universe (AU) is a form of popular fiction that is much loved by today's young generation. In the AU form found on social media, the storyline is built not with narrative but with pictures containing chats between characters and also photos with visual claims of K-Pop idols. The tendency of the younger generation who are also K-Pop fans is currently to prefer reading AU in the form of fanfiction which presents light plots and conflicts with visual claims using more interesting K-Pop group idols. However, in its development, a debate emerged that the AU could not be considered a work of fiction because it did not have narratives that build a storyline from the conflict raised like a literary work such as a novel. This research uses a virtual ethnographic method where researchers conducted interviews with 7 AU writers to find out the process of transferring media from fictional stories from pictures containing conversations to short messages or uploading stories on social media with visual claims using the faces of K-Pop idols into works. fiction in the form of a novel. This data was used to determine the obstacles in creating narratives in novels based on their AU works. Apart from that, direct observations were also carried out by comparing AU works and novels from the author's titles to find out how descriptions were developed in narrative form and sentence formation in paragraphs in the novel. This research aims to explain the process of converting AU's work into a complete novel. From these interviews and comparing the AU form with the novel form, it was found that there was a change in the storyline, especially in the development of conflict because AU works were felt to be lighter and often the conflict was not strong enough to be written in a work of fiction in the form of a novel. Apart from that, there are also several novels that still include pictures containing typical AU short messages in the novel because they feel that these scenes are difficult to turn into narratives. There were many parts that ended up being replaced and changed to create a complete novel. Keywords: Alternate universe, novel, media transformation AU to novel, narration, visual claim.

Abstract

This study examines the application of Grice's maxims in the movie "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1," emphasizing their role in ensuring effective communication. Grice's Cooperative Principle suggests that conversations should follow four maxims: quality, quantity, relevance, and manner, to facilitate clear and meaningful exchanges. However, these maxims are not always followed, leading to misunderstandings and misinterpretations. This study identifies instances where characters either fulfil or violate these maxims and analyses the effects of these violations on the overall communication process. Employing a qualitative descriptive method, the research collects and examines dialogues from the movie to categorize instances of adherence and violation of Gricean maxims. The findings indicate that violations of maxims often occur for humorous, dramatic, or deceptive purposes, affecting the audience’s perception and interpretation of dialogues. Characters such as Dobby, Ron, and Kreacher frequently violate maxims of quantity, relevance, and quality, either by providing excessive information, deviating from the topic, or delivering untruthful statements. Conversely, characters like Mad-Eye Moody and Lupin exemplify the fulfilment of maxims, ensuring clarity and coherence in conversations. The study contributes to the understanding of pragmatics in cinematic dialogue and highlights how filmmakers use language strategically to shape character interactions. The findings suggest that the violation of conversational maxims in movies is an intentional linguistic tool that enhances storytelling and audience engagement.

Abstract

Curriculum Vitae (CV) is an essential document used to showcase personal competence in written form. To make sure that competence is articulated correctly in a written format, students should be aware of their accuracy as it reflects their professionalism. Thus, this study aims to investigate the common grammatical errors found in CVs. Quantitative research was chosen. 34 random Business Economics students’ CV documents with a complete format were analyzed using a grammar checker tool named Grammarly. The result reveals that there were 221 grammatical errors found in the students’ CVs consisting of errors in lexis (34.56%), syntax (28.82%), discourse (23.53%), and morphology (16.67%). This finding highlights the students’ struggle to articulate their competence in a well-written document. Furthermore, this may be a reflection for students and teachers to attain better students writing in the future and for researchers to investigate more on grammar errors in the context of English for Foreign Learners and curriculum development of professional writing.

Abstract

This study aims to explain young people's perception of digital changes that are increasingly massive. This study is important to provide clarity on the readiness of young people, namely students in higher education, to face the challenges of the digital era. This study uses a descriptive approach with a sentiment analysis method. This approach was chosen because it can capture the perception of young people naturally. The respondents in this study were 440 students from various educational backgrounds. Respondents responded by answering open-ended questions submitted through google forms. The results show that the majority of respondents have positive sentiments towards the digital transformation that is taking place. Mayoitas of respondents also showed readiness to enter digital transformation. These findings show that young people can accept and are ready to enter the digital transformation. The findings emphasize the identification of patterns that higher understanding is not always proportional to positive sentiment, but rather encourages critical and reflective attitudes. These findings enrich the literature that has so far highlighted the linear relationship between digital literacy and positive attitudes towards digital transformation.

Abstract

Political speeches constitute collective perception through event framing, identity construction, and emotional mobilization and hence are of the utmost importance for understanding the way language supports power and ideology. Although the rhetoric of Donald Trump has been studied in terms of nationalism, populist moral binaries, and emotional polarization, his memorial speeches have not received attention so far as ideological tools. Drawing on the methodological apparatus of Critical Discourse Analysis, the current study integrates Fairclough’s three-dimensional model with Van Dijk’s ideological square. It analyzes how “victims” and “villains” are discursively constructed and what ideological functions these constructions serve in Trump's speech after the assassination of the conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The study analyzes the official transcript of the speech. The results indicate that Trump constructs the victim, Kirk, with the help of sacralized and heroic frames that scale up individual loss into national trauma, while simultaneously extending the category of victims to “all Americans.” On the other side, villains are constructed by dehumanization and causal attribution: blame is attributed to the radical left, media, and related institutions, widening the circle of blame. Such representations realize important ideological functions: first, they reinforce polarization by means of strong moral binaries; second, they turn personal tragedy into political mobilization. Furthermore, positioning Trump as a protector figure creates emotional resonance, thereby firmly strengthening audience loyalty. This paper shows that the speech works not only as a form of eulogy but also as a persuasive strategy in solidifying identity boundaries and political support. The findings add to the scholarship of political communication and CDA, having implications for teaching persuasive discourse in business and organizational contexts.

Abstract

This study was geared by previous research that covered the effectiveness of the application of gamification concepts in English for Specific Purposes classes in university level. Gamification has been considered relevant in growing and maintaining students’ learning motivation, as most research focused on how lecturers applied the concepts of gamification and the results of the processes on students. This research will scrutinize how students respond to the lecturer’s application of the gamification elements in class.  This study uses a questionnaire on how students perceive the use of gamification elements in class and how it helps them improve their self-confidence. The results of this research show that students were aware of the gamification strategies applied in class activities and they responded positively to the application of gamification elements in their ESP classes. Most of them agreed that gamification helped motivate them to relax and be more engaged in class activities as it improved their self-confidence in using English.   Keywords: students’ self-confidence, gamification, ESP, learning motivation.

Abstract

Song lyrics are widely recognized as authentic materials that expose EFL learners to natural language use. One linguistic feature that often challenges learners is phrasal verbs, which frequently appear in everyday communication yet are difficult to interpret due to their semantic complexity. This study aims to analyze phrasal verbs in the song lyrics of Taylor Swift's album 1989. Specifically, the study identifies various types of phrasal verbs and their meanings in context.  Using content analysis, phrasal verbs found in four selected songs were identified and analyzed in terms of their syntactic characteristics and contextual meanings. The results show that phrasal verbs in the lyrics are used not only as grammatical constructions but also as expressive resources to represent emotional states, interpersonal conflict, and relational dynamics. These uses show that song lyrics can support learners in understanding phrasal verbs through meaningful contextual use. Therefore, the study highlights the pedagogical potential of popular song lyrics as authentic materials for facilitating EFL vocabulary learning, particularly in helping learners comprehend and use phrasal verbs more naturally.   Keywords: authentic materials, EFL, phrasal verbs, song lyrics, vocabulary learning
