Abstract

This study investigated the politeness strategies used by Park Jin Young when commenting on the American contestants’ performance in the A2K show and its factors. The aim was to find what types of politeness strategies Park Jin Young used and the factors that influenced him to choose those in the A2K show. The method used is a qualitative method using Scollon et al.'s (2012) politeness theory. The result showed that Park Jin Young used more involvement than an independence strategy. The factors influencing it are the power and distance factors, revealing his implementation of a hierarchical politeness structure. In addition, the weight of imposition factor reveals that even though Park Jin Young tries to adapt to American politeness when commenting on American contestants' performances, he still maintains his identity as a Korean by using independent strategies

Abstract

The political contest in the 2024 election has resulted in the winning result of candidate pair number two, namely the pair Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming Raka. After the announcement of the election results by the KPU, the elected couple delivered a victory speech. This research aims to explain the macro, superstructure, and micro structure in Prabowo Subianto's first speech after being declared the winner in the 2024 presidential election. This research also demonstrates the social aspects (societal analysis) that shape speech discourse. This qualitative research uses a critical discourse analysis approach modeled by Teun A. Van Dijk. The data is in the form of Prabowo Subianto's speech expressions. The data source was obtained via YouTube Kompas.com. The sampling technique was carried out using purposive sampling. The data collection technique was carried out by document analysis. Data analysis was carried out using interactive data analysis. Triangulating theory, data sources, and between researchers carried out the data validity test. The research results show that macrostructure, superstructure, and microstructure loads are present. Macro structure regarding expressions of gratitude for the implementation of the election process. The superstructure consists of an opening, content, and closing scheme. Microstructure consists of semantics, syntax, stylistics, and rhetoric. Hopefully, this research can enrich the scientific knowledge of critical discourse studies and their use.

Abstract

This study presents a contrastive phonological analysis of consonant cluster patterns in Javanese and English. The primary objective is to examine structural phonotactic constraints, particularly cluster types, sonority sequencing, and repair strategies, with a focus on cross linguistic and bilingual contexts. Employing corpus based data and phonological inventories, the analysis identifies cluster combinations in both onset and coda positions, and evaluates conformity to the Sonority Sequencing Principle (SSP). Javanese displays a preference for simple, sonority conforming onset clustersprimarily C+r/l and s+{r,w}and rarely produces complex codas or CCC onsets outside of loanwords. English, by contrast, permits a wide array of clusters, including frequent SSP violating s+stop+liquid sequences and up to four consonant codas. These typological differences are reflected in structural adaptations: Javanese and Indonesian speakers regularly apply vowel epenthesis to repair illegal clusters in both loanwords and interlanguage forms (e.g., /stress/ → /setres/, /spring/ → /sepering/). Dialectal variation within Javanese and cognitive control in bilinguals further shape these outcomes. The results affirm that Javanese conforms more strictly to SSP and syllable templates, whereas English tolerates greater phonotactic flexibility. Repair strategies like epenthesis, simplification, and truncation highlight the interface between native phonological constraints and second language adaptation. These findings contribute to phonotactic theory, bilingual phonology, and L2 instruction by clarifying how learners accommodate foreign cluster structures.

Abstract

Cross-linguistic influence (CLI) plays a pivotal role in second language acquisition (SLA), reflecting the ways in which first language knowledge shapes subsequent language learning. This narrative review synthesizes findings from studies spanning structural, socio-cultural, technological, and individual dimensions, with the aim of offering a comprehensive understanding of CLI in multilingual contexts. Literature was retrieved from major databases, including Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, using targeted keywords such as “cross-linguistic influence,” “second language acquisition,” “bilingualism,” and “transfer effects.” Selection criteria included peer-reviewed studies published between 2000 and 2025, encompassing experimental, longitudinal, and qualitative designs. Results indicate that structural factors, such as educational policies and curricula, significantly condition transfer outcomes, with inclusive bilingual policies fostering positive transfer. Socio-cultural environments further mediate CLI by shaping learners’ linguistic exposure and practices, while technological innovations, including computational modeling and AI-driven applications, provide new insights into transfer processes though remain unevenly distributed globally. Individual cognitive traits, including metalinguistic awareness and motivation, strongly determine how learners experience CLI, influencing whether transfer becomes a barrier or a resource. These findings underscore the need for integrated strategies that combine pedagogy, policy, and technology to mitigate negative transfer and leverage positive effects. The review highlights research gaps in longitudinal analysis, multilingual repertoires, and individual differences, suggesting directions for future inquiry. Recognizing CLI as a dynamic, multidimensional process is crucial for advancing equitable and effective SLA in a multilingual world.

Abstract

Semantic change has become an increasingly important focus in historical linguistics and sociolinguistics, reflecting how language evolves in response to social, cultural, and technological transformations. This narrative review aimed to synthesize conceptual, empirical, and contextual perspectives on semantic change and to assess the implications of these shifts for broader societal dynamics. Literature was systematically collected from major databases including Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and PubMed, using keywords such as semantic change, sociolinguistics, migration discourse, and linguistic evolution. Inclusion criteria emphasized peer-reviewed studies published in the past five years, complemented by seminal works providing historical context. The results reveal three interrelated themes: conceptual frameworks including semantic gradation and discourse-historical approaches; empirical patterns documented through quantitative analyses of lexical shifts and concreteness in language use; and contextual influences encompassing social policies, cultural traditions, and digital communication. These findings demonstrate that semantic change is not only a linguistic phenomenon but also a reflection of systemic structures, power relations, and cultural identities. The discussion highlights the need for inclusive language policies, culturally responsive education, and interdisciplinary research to mitigate inequalities and preserve linguistic diversity. By linking theory, data, and context, this review contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of semantic change and its relevance for language, society, and identity in a globalized world.
