Abstract

Humor is essential to make something forbidden or taboo acceptable. One example can be seen in sexual acts/relationships. It can only be acceptable to be talked out loud when it is used as joking material. Joking can only be done if the speaker or the hearer has the competence of telling and understanding jokes. Jokes also can only be understood in some contexts. In telling jokes, the speaker must follow and understand some maxims by Grice. It is because violating the joking mode of maxims can make the joke fail to be understood. This research tries to analyze erotic jokes found in an Instagram account @tarablairball. It is descriptive-qualitative research that tries to revisit and compare this analysis by doing similar research to Wijana (2022). The data taken are 80 first erotic jokes since she first made content about it. From the analysis of 80 erotic jokes found in the data source. There are some categories of jokes from the perspective of linguistics. It is found that there are 29 metaphors, 28 Slang, 11 Polysemies, 2 Homophones, 2 Metonymies, and 2 Sound Changes. In addition, there are 3 homonyms found. The study is expected to be useful for future studies related to humor and pragmatics.

Abstract

Literary texts frequently function as cultural artifacts that reflect and critique the socio-economic structures of their time. One such structure is the hierarchical division of society into distinct social classes, often determined by access to wealth, power, and privilege. This study explores the representation of class dynamics in Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith, with particular attention to the symbolic positioning of zombies with human characters. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative methodology and grounded in Karl Marx’s theory of class struggle within a sociological literary framework, the research examines how the novel constructs and reinforces social stratification. The study offers a distinctive contribution by interpreting the human-zombie dichotomy as a metaphor for entrenched class divisions, thereby extending Marxist analysis into the domain of genre fiction. The findings suggest that zombies are not merely monstrous figures but serve as symbolic representations of the oppressed lower class, subjected to marginalization and dehumanization by the elite. This narrative dynamic reflects broader concerns surrounding class-based prejudice and systemic inequality. Through its hybridization of horror and classic literature, the novel becomes a site for critical engagement with socio-economic hierarchies, illustrating how genre fiction can serve as a vehicle for ideological critique.

Abstract

Cross-border movements can pose challenges for immigrants as they adapt to the host society's culture and language. This study focuses on Inaq Grace's language choice as an acculturation strategy in Lombok, Indonesia, including patterns of variation, language choice, and influencing factors. This study uses Berry's (1992) theory of acculturation strategies and Fishman's (1972) theory of domains of language use. As a data source used by YouTube, there are five videos, one of which is the speech of the @InaqGrace account uploaded in 2021. First, the data collection stage uses the listening and note-taking method. This method involves transcribing, classifying, and recording the utterances from the @InaqGrace account. The result reveals that Grace communicates in a variety of languages while in Lombok, including Sasak, Indonesian, and English. It reflects communication in social contexts, comprising the variety of languages spoken in Indonesia, including local, foreign, and Indonesian languages. Variations in language choice used by Grace in her activities while living on the island of Lombok in the video are communicating in the realms of shopping, friendship, religion, and neighbourliness. These factors include the participants involved, depending on the topic and function of communication, the habitual factor of hearing or using the language, and the preservation of the language being used.

This paper delves into locutionary and illocutionary speech acts in drink advertisements in Indonesia for the period 2022-2023, published on YouTube. This study focuses on the communicative forms and functions of illocutionary speech acts in drink advertising on YouTube during the 2022-2023 period. In addition to speech modes, the marketing product also uses other modes. The focus of this research will be dissected using Wijana's theory of illocutionary speech acts. The results showed that during the 2022-2023 period, there were 8 top drink advertisements in Indonesia. Among all the drink advertisements, 3 used representative speech, 10 used expressive speech, and one used directive speech functions for each communicative function. Additionally, this research revealed notable differences in the effectiveness of various types of speech acts across these advertisements, ultimately providing insights into their impact on marketing strategies within the beverage industry.

Abstract

This research examines how generational differences are reflected in conversational interactions, particularly in turn-taking behavior in public discourse. As intergenerational communication becomes increasingly common in the media, differences in communication styles often lead to misunderstandings, misinterpretations, or perceived power imbalances. This research investigates turn-taking strategies used by boomers, Gen X, millennials, and Gen Z in the Mata Najwa talk show episode '4 Generasi Bicara Generation Gap'. The data were the utterances of Slamet Rahardjo Djarot (as a boomer), Panji Pragiwaksono (as a Gen X), Felicia Putri Tjiasaka (as a millennial), and Muharam Fachri (as a Gen Z). The data were taken from Mata Najwa's talk show '4 Generasi Bicara Generation Gap' episode on Najwa Shihab's YouTube channel. Then, the data were analyzed using Stenstrom's turn-taking theory to achieve the goal. The results revealed that boomers, Gen X, millennials, and Gen Z use similar turn-taking strategies, namely taking the turn, holding the turn, and yielding the turn. However, they have different sub-strategies and different ways to take the turn, to hold the turn, and to yield the turn. The most dominant strategy used by all generations is to take the turn. This strategy is used by them when they want to evaluate the previous speaker before expressing their opinion. This talk show is dominated by discussion, so the uptake strategy is relevant for all generations during the conversations. This finding suggests that intergenerational communication in media spaces is characterized by responsiveness and dialogue, rather than dominance. The uptake strategy reflects a communicative norm that emphasizes attentiveness, evaluation, and mutual respect, as reflected in broader social expectations in today's public discourse.

Abstract

Myths are falling out of favor in modern society, as they are seen as irrelevant. To address the current perspective, this study aims to describe and interpret various myths about the Gods' teachings to humans. Babad Kayu Selem is a historical text that traces the origins of the Pasek Kayu Selem family to the sudra or vaishya class. The material object used in this study is Babad Kayu Selem, which was translated by I Wayan Wardha in 1989. Three methods are used in this study. The first method is data collection through a literature review. The second method was data analysis, which was carried out in two stages in this study. First, describing various myths of teachings in Babad Kayu Selem. Second, the data, in the form of collected myths and teachings, are interpreted using a historical approach, drawing on historical literature as interpreted by Kuntowijoyo, and linked to the function of myths based on the Human, Myth, and Mythology approach as interpreted by Zeffry. The third method is to present the analysis results descriptively. The results of the study, through reading the Babad in comprehension and creation modes, show that the myths in Babad Kayu Selem fulfill their functions, as reflected in social facts, so they can be said to be part of history and culture that influence aspects of human life. In the end, Babad Kayu Selem highlights their enduring influence on cultural identity and social values, inspiring current society to understand that these narratives can strengthen community ties and foster a sense of belonging.

Abstract

The surrounding public is influenced by the correlations and conventions of language, which can be studied as a linguistic landscape. This study aims to investigate the philosophical significance of street naming conventions in the Gisting District, exploring how linguistic landscapes reflect and influence public perception and social identity. The combination of these two studies requires analyzing data from 30 texts and visual sources, as well as 18 structures, forms, and meanings in morphemes. The method used is a qualitative descriptive approach, employing a portrait method with photographs and a word-reading technique. The results of the research reveal the meanings of words, both as lexemes and as compound words, which possess philosophical significance in the context of language activity and the philosophy of language. Eventually, understanding the onomastic choices can aid in preserving the district's history and promoting tourism by highlighting significant local figures or events associated with the street names.

Abstract

Language style is the beauty of language. Many literary works, in the form of poetry, rhymes, and other genres, including songs, use language styles to beautify word arrangement and convey meaning, as in traditional Javanese songs. However, limited understanding of metaphorical language in Javanese songs, particularly those used in Islamic da'wah, hinders insight into their cultural significance and the depth of their messages, necessitating an in-depth analysis of selected works to uncover the layers of meaning conveyed by these metaphors. As in this research, the analysis of metaphorical language styles is discussed in depth by limiting the number of songs analyzed. Researchers analyzed five selected songs, which are Javanese cultural heritage, that Sunan Kalijaga and Sunan Giri popularized as a form of Islamic da'wah' preaching'. The songs analyzed in this study include Kidung Wahyu Kalaseba, Padang Mbulan, Lir Ilir, Cublak-cublak Suweng, and Gambang Suling—analysis of Michael C. Halley's version of the metaphor used in this study. The researcher used descriptive qualitative analysis to complete the discussion by collecting the lyrics of the song being analyzed, examining their meaning, drawing on several literature reviews from previous studies, and analyzing the meaning. The results of this research show that there are four Being metaphors, three Substance metaphors, two Cosmos metaphors, two Human metaphors, one Animate metaphor, two Living metaphors, one Terrestrial metaphor, one Object metaphor, and one Energetic metaphor.
