Abstract

This study aims to describe the types of illocutionary speech acts in the song al-Maḥkamaḥ by Kāẓim al-Sāhir. This study will also discuss the messages listeners can take away from the song. It is hoped that the message will be useful to anyone currently living in a household or who will live in one. This research is a descriptive qualitative study. The data source for this study is the lyrics of the song al-Maḥkamaḥ by Kāẓim al-Sāhir, obtained directly from the YouTube account @rotanamusic. In collecting data, the listening and note-taking technique was used, with the following steps: listening to and understanding the song, noting the lyrics, identifying the data, and classifying the data. Meanwhile, in analyzing the data, there are several stages: reading, determining the type of illocutionary speech act, describing the illocutionary speech act in the lyrics of the song al-Maḥkamaḥ by Kāẓim al-Sāhir, revealing the message behind the lyrics, and concluding the analysis. In the song al-Maḥkamaḥ by Kāẓim al-Sāhir, 43 illocutionary speech acts were found, 5 of which were assertive illocutionary speech acts. In this study, 9 imperative, 8 commissive, 13 expressive, and 8 declarative speech acts were also identified. In previous studies, there has been no in-depth examination of the song's message. In this study, it can also be concluded that the main message for listeners of this song is caution in choosing a life partner.

Abstract

This research is a syntactic study in a children's storybook titled Kisah Petualangan Seru Kancil dan Teman-temannya (The Exciting Adventure Story of the Mouse Deer and His Friends). The aim of this research is to analyze the functions, categories, and syntactic roles in simple sentences found in the narrative of the children's book. The data were analyzed using a qualitative descriptive method with a syntactic approach, involving 21 simple sentences found in the storybook, which were classified based on the sentence structure patterns of Subject-Predicate-Object (SPO), Subject-Predicate-Adverbial (SPA), and Subject-Predicate-Object-Adverbial (SPOA). The analysis results show that these patterns reflect a simple structure that is effective in conveying the story to children. The functions, categories, and syntactic roles in each sentence also reflect consistency in the use of simple sentence patterns that are easy for children to understand through the children's storybook.

Abstract

This study explores the use of Indonesian and English among Alpha generations which focuses on two children namely El Barack Alexander and Dia Sekala Bumi. These children, attending international primary schools, have been exposed to English from an early age. This study aims to understand their proficiency in both languages and how they apply both of them. This study analyzes the children's utterances from YouTube and TikTok videos to assess their language proficiency and code-switching behavior based on the sociolinguistics and bilingualism theories. The findings reveal that both children demonstrate fluent bilingualism with natural code-switching and a diverse vocabulary in both languages. Their bilingual abilities are influenced by their family, school environment, and exposure to digital media. The study highlights the growing trend of bilingualism among Alpha generations and its implications for language development and communication. El Barack and Sekala's language use provides valuable insights into the developing linguistic scope of Alpha generation. This study underlines the importance of bilingualism in a globalized world and its impact on cognitive and social development.

Abstract

This study aims to reveal the similarities in form and meaning of family member terms in Javanese, Madurese, and Balinese as Austronesian languages. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with a historical-comparative linguistic approach. Data were obtained through a literature study of dictionaries and relevant scientific sources, then analyzed using the principle of regular sound correspondence to identify cognate forms and phonological innovations that occurred. The results show that lexical terms of address such as bapa, adi, and nini have forms and meanings that are consistent with Proto-Austronesian forms. Balinese tends to be the most conservative in retaining proto forms, Javanese shows minor innovations through vowel changes and speech level systems, while Madurese has undergone phonological changes, including the emergence of glottal stops and aspirated consonants. Semantically, all three languages retain the basic meanings that represent core kinship relationships, albeit with their own variations.

Abstract

This study examines the production of gender pronouns as a form of cultural production in Elliot Page’s Instagram coming‑out post published on December 2, 2020, in which he publicly identifies as transgender and adopts the pronouns he/they. Situated within the broader context of digital media and gender discourse, this research aims to understand how language practices related to gender identity are produced, represented, and circulated in contemporary social media spaces. Employing a qualitative approach, the study analyzes both linguistic choices and visual elements present in the Instagram post, alongside selected audience responses in the comment section. Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of cultural production provides the main analytical framework, particularly through the concepts of habits, cultural capital, social capital, and arena. The findings suggest that Page’s position as a well‑known public figure enables the strategic use of pronouns he/they as a symbolic practice supported by significant cultural and social capital. Audience reactions demonstrate a process of symbolic negotiation marked by affirmation, solidarity, and resistance, reflecting broader tensions surrounding gender norms and identity recognition. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of how gender identity is constructed and contested in the digital era and emphasizes social media’s role as an influential arena for cultural production and symbolic power.

Abstract

Gyopo is a call for Korean-Americans who stay in Korea, and the community is also called the Gyopo community. Gyopo community carried out code-switching and code- mixing talks among its members or other members of different communities. This study employed a descriptive and qualitative methodology to analyze the data. The data were taken from two "Get Real" podcast episodes. The study revealed that in talks between Gyopo and non-Gyopo members, there could be a simultaneous presence of both convergence and divergence within a linguistic system. Specific structures or levels of the language structure may show convergence, while others may demonstrate divergent convergence. Gender took a role in the language divergence and convergence phenomenon through the code-switching practices of the Gyopo community members. It found that women engaged in code-switching and code-mixing when conversing with someone from different community members but did not do any code-switching or code-mixing when speaking to someone from their community. Therefore, this study enhanced the comprehension of the vagaries of multilingual communication and the role of language in shaping social identity and engagement. Furthermore, it offered valuable perspectives on how individuals manage their numerous identities and modify their language usage in different social contexts.

Abstract

Artikel ini membahas ketidakstabilan ruang sebagai bentuk perlawanan terhadap wacana kolonial. Menurut Sara Upstone, ruang yang cair merupakan strategi pascakolonial untuk menentang struktur dan batas-batas yang dibangun kolonialisme. Dalam konteks Hindia Belanda, keberadaan kolonial tidak sepenuhnya hilang setelah penjajahan berakhir, tetapi masih dapat dilihat melalui kelompok orang Indo, yaitu keturunan hasil perkawinan antara bangsa Eropa dan pribumi. Secara sosial, orang Indo ditempatkan sejajar dengan bangsa Eropa, tetapi mereka tidak dapat sepenuhnya menginternalisasi identitas Eropa karena masih memiliki ikatan biologis dan kultural dengan dunia Timur. Berbagai upaya untuk mengadopsi nilai-nilai Barat sering kali dihadapkan pada resistensi yang muncul dari latar belakang ketimuran yang melekat pada diri mereka. Akibatnya, orang Indo berada dalam posisi ambivalen, yakni di antara dua identitas yang tidak sepenuhnya menyatu. Penelitian ini bertujuan menjelaskan bagaimana ketidakstabilan identitas orang Indo menjadi strategi untuk mengganggu konstruksi kolonial. Dengan menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif, penelitian menganalisis novel Bayangan Memudar karya Breton de Nijs. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tubuh dan identitas orang Indo bersifat cair serta tidak sepenuhnya tunduk pada kategori kolonial. Kondisi ini membuka ruang resistensi yang melemahkan klaim kemurnian dan stabilitas identitas kolonial. --- This paper examines spatial instability as a form of resistance to colonial discourse through Sara Upstone’s postcolonial framework. Upstone argues that fluid space functions as a strategy for disrupting Western colonial narratives. Focusing on the Indo community, descendants of mixed marriages between Dutch colonizers and indigenous women, this study explores how their ambiguous identity positions them within a fluid “middle space” between East and West. Although Indos occupied a privileged status comparable to Europeans in the colonial hierarchy, they were unable to fully embody European values because their Eastern heritage continued to shape their bodies and identities. Consequently, their attempts to assimilate into European culture were continually challenged by traces of Eastern ancestry and cultural memory. Using a descriptive qualitative method, this paper analyzes Breton de Nijs’s Bayangan Memudar and demonstrates that the Indo body constitutes a fluid space that destabilizes colonial constructions of identity and power. While the presence of Indos helped sustain colonial authority in the Dutch East Indies, their inherent cultural and bodily hybridity simultaneously undermined the colonial order by revealing its internal contradictions.

Abstract

This article tried to investigate the short story “al-Ḥafrah” written by Ḥasan Blāsim under the framework of the theory of postmodernist fiction proposed by Brian McHale’s. “Al-Ḥafrah” portrays the condition of a main character who escapes from conflict and falls into a hole. This hole bridges multiple realities and becomes the center of the story’s absurd narration. By employing McHale’s theoretical framework, this article seeks to construct the narrative structure of  “al-Ḥafrah.” This article results in three major concepts of postmodernist fiction. First world pluralism represents a heterocosmic unity between the space of conflict, the space of silence,  and the space of technology. Second, space construction and deconstruction simultaneously happen through three strategies: juxtaposing Iraq and Finland spatially, and juxtaposing the Abbasid era, World War II, the post-Saddam period, and the technological era temporally; interpolating the hole as an unknown space between known places and historical periods; and misattributing the hole by assigning attributes that should not belong to it. Third the recursive structure produces strange narrative loops through a hypodiegetic mechanism that generates new objects from older ones. These three anti-realist concepts dominantly highlight the ontological problems in “al-Ḥafrah,” which disrupt the nature of reality and become an antithesis to realist literature.

Abstract

Writing is one of the most challenging skills for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners because it requires grammatical accuracy, adequate vocabulary, and the ability to organize ideas coherently. Preliminary observations in a public junior secondary school in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, revealed that many ninth-grade students experienced difficulties in constructing sentences using the present and past continuous tenses, resulting in frequent grammatical errors and low writing achievement. This study aimed to improve students’ writing skills through the implementation of Project-Based Learning (PjBL), with the Jigsaw technique integrated in the second cycle to strengthen collaborative learning. The study employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) based on the Kemmis and McTaggart model and involved 25 ninth-grade students. Data were collected through writing tests, classroom observations, field notes, and documentation and analyzed using descriptive quantitative and qualitative methods. The findings showed that the implementation of PjBL, supported by Jigsaw in Cycle II, improved students’ grammatical accuracy, sentence construction, classroom participation, and learning engagement. The average student score increased from 63.20 in the pre-cycle to 73.67 in Cycle I and reached 84.00 in Cycle II. In Cycle I, 18 of the 25 students (72%) achieved the minimum mastery criterion, while seven students (28%) did not. Following the instructional revision and integration of Jigsaw in Cycle II, all students (100%) successfully met the minimum mastery criterion. Students also demonstrated fewer grammatical errors, particularly in the use of auxiliary verbs (to be), -ing verb forms, and continuous tense structures. In addition, students became more actively involved in peer discussions, more confident in sharing their understanding, and more engaged in collaborative writing activities. These findings suggest that PjBL, when complemented by the Jigsaw technique, can provide a meaningful and collaborative learning environment for enhancing grammar-based writing skills and promoting active engagement in EFL classrooms.
