Abstract

This research explores the cognitive structure of the Boang language in Aceh Singkil, a mother tongue which is now facing the threat of extinction due to language shift and lack of scientific documentation. In the midst of the dominance of conceptual metaphor theory which considers abstraction to be universal, Boang language actually presents an anomaly in the form of extreme attachment to physical reality. The main aim of this research is to deconstruct lexical mechanisms that indicate the speaker's empirical honesty through three main domains: vertical kinematics, control thermodynamics, and scale-based taxonomy. This study employed a qualitative ethnosemantic approach supported by the Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) framework. Data were collected from native Boang speakers through observation and in-depth lexical elicitation. The analysis focused on several key lexical items, including Leneng, Milas, Hangat, and Kedek, to examine how meanings are structured and categorized within the Boang cognitive system. The findings indicate that these lexical items tend to prioritize concrete physical parameters, such as direction of movement, source of energy, and physical size, rather than subjective intentions or abstract conceptual associations. Based on these patterns, this study proposes the analytical concept of Semantic Monolithism, referring to a semantic tendency in which lexical categorization is predominantly organized around stable and directly observable physical features. Rather than suggesting a complete absence of metaphorical thinking, the findings highlight an alternative semantic orientation that emphasizes empirical categorization within the examined lexical domains. The study contributes to cognitive linguistics by providing evidence of semantic variation in an under-documented language and highlights the importance of documenting local linguistic knowledge before it is affected by ongoing language assimilation.

Abstract

This research explores the application of the teachings contained in the Wedhatama Fiber as the foundation of national culture and policy. The application of the teachings focuses on the relevance of the principles of ethics, spirituality, and leadership, especially those related to character formation, public service, social discipline, human resources, and strengthening the nation's identity. In the context of increasing globalization, local cultural values have changed, so efforts are needed to revive traditional teachings as a source of morals and ethics for national life. The method used is qualitative descriptive with a hermeneutic approach to gain a deep understanding of the meaning of the text of the Wedhatama Fiber and relate it to social conditions and government policy direction. The research data was obtained through a literature review of the Wedhatama Fiber manuscript, especially pupuh which contains teachings about science, behavior, self-control, and life order. Other data were obtained from various cultural, political, and public policy literature. The analysis is carried out through text editing, translation into Indonesian, and interpretation of meaning with appropriate context. From this study, it was found that teachings, such as self-control, good manners, simplicity, inner maturity, and moral responsibility have a strong relationship in shaping the character of an ethical society with integrity. Values such as social harmony, and respect for others can be used as a cultural foundation in creating a system of life and government that prioritizes the interests of the community. In addition, the application of traditional philosophical values that can be applied to applicable public policies in the midst of modern social changes is also obtained. Therefore, the revitalization of Wedhatama Fiber is very important to strengthen the nation's identity while maintaining the noble values of Indonesian culture.

Abstract

Video titles function as the first point of contact between short-video producers and prospective viewers, yet the titles of Chinese vertical microdramas (duanju) circulating in Indonesian on YouTube remain unexamined as a site of persuasive language. This study analyzes 200 Indonesian-language titles of Chinese vertical microdramas using a newly proposed Lexical Trigger–Persuasion Framework (LTPF), which traces titles across five levels: lexical triggers, linguistic devices, persuasive strategies, persuasion patterns, and viewer expectations. Grounded in Persuasive Communication theory, Advertising Language theory, Curiosity Gap theory, and Viewer Expectation theory, the framework operationalizes each analytical category through an explicit codebook with inclusion and exclusion criteria, enabling replicable, corpus-based coding rather than impressionistic classification. Beyond an expected romance-dominant framing (85.0% of titles), a finding particularly distinctive of this corpus is the salience of rebirth/second-chance narratives (9.5%), a persuasive-narrative device largely absent from prior clickbait and headline scholarship. Positive-Emotion Valence (46.5%) and Curiosity Gap (46.0%) emerge as the two dominant persuasive strategies. Yet, co-occurrence analysis shows they rarely combine within the same title (22.6–22.8% overlap), suggesting Indonesian-language duanju titles are constructed along two largely separate persuasive routes — one emotion-led, one curiosity-led — rather than one blended appeal. Lexical co-occurrence analysis further shows that Social Status triggers (e.g., CEO) co-occur with Relational triggers in 55.6% of Status-marked titles but Economic triggers in only 1.6%, indicating status-based fantasy operates largely independently of the rags-to-riches reversal assumed in prior genre commentary. This study contributes a transferable coding framework based on observable linguistic forms. It demonstrates its analytical value over conventional single-level persuasion coding for short-form digital titles beyond the Chinese microdrama genre.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze Indonesian language errors found in WhatsApp conversations among elementary school students based on four linguistic levels: phonology, morphology, syntax, and spelling. The research employed a qualitative approach using a case study design. The participants consisted of five female elementary school students from Tambak Pring VI, Surabaya, identified by the initials DIN, AYU, YUM, YOL, and AGN. The research data were collected from naturally occurring WhatsApp group conversations discussing daily topics, including K-Pop, TikTok video creation, traditional rope-jumping games, and plans to play together after attending Quran recitation classes. Data were gathered through documentation techniques and analyzed using the language error analysis procedures proposed by Tarigan, including error identification, classification, description, and explanation. The findings indicate that language errors occurred at all linguistic levels. Spelling errors were the most dominant, including the misuse of capital letters, punctuation marks, non-standard abbreviations, and incorrect word writing. Morphological errors involved the use of non-standard word forms and inappropriate affixation, while syntactic errors appeared in incomplete sentence structures and ineffective word order. Phonological errors were reflected in written forms influenced by spoken language pronunciation. These findings suggest that students' digital communication is strongly influenced by spoken language habits, peer interaction, and the informal characteristics of social media communication. Therefore, teachers and parents are encouraged to strengthen students' digital language literacy by fostering the appropriate use of standard Indonesian in both academic and digital communication.
