Applied Linguistics: Innovative Approaches and Emerging Trends
ISSN : -     EISSN : 3047549X     DOI : https://doi.org/10.58989/appling
Applied Linguistics Innovative Approaches and Emerging Trends is a scholarly journal published twice a year in March and September under the patronage of Yayasan Nurul Iman Muara Gading Mas. The periodical welcomes submissions pertaining to language-related problems and solutions in realworld contexts. The aim of the journal is to publish articles that appeal to its wide readership and build connections between academic theories, discourses, and investigative methods across diverse fields of study. Research published in applied linguistics typically has practical relevance for institutional practices in education, the workplace, healthcare, legal systems, and media. The journal invites contributions that provide critical reflection on current, cutting-edge theory and practice within the discipline. The journals Forum section is intended to stimulate debate between authors and the broader applied linguistics community and allow a faster turnaround for short pieces. Forum articles typically provide commentary on research issues or professional practices or respond to a published paper.

Abstract

This research addresses an existing deficiency in the field of Austronesian micro-dialectology by exploring the structural differences between the closely situated Kaili Ledo and Kaili Ado dialects found in Central Sulawesi. The objective was to compare 50 adjectives, with primary data gathered from native speakers in Palu and Sigi through observational (simak) and conversational (cakap) approaches, which were subsequently examined using intralingual pairing. The results effectively respond to the research inquiries: both dialects possess a common grammatical foundation wherein adjectives operate as stative verbs through mandatory prefixation (na-/ma-), while also exhibiting consistent micro-dialectal variation. From a phonological standpoint, an observable vowel transformation from /a, i/ to /o/ along with the addition of glottals appears in Ado (na ka vs. na’ko), in addition to final nasal prolongations (nalanga vs. nalangan). On a lexical level, complete root substitutions differentiate behavioral ideas (jilere vs. nyenye). In terms of structure, asymmetries are most evident in less desirable contexts, as Ledo utilizes a bound root (na ’da), whereas Ado opts for a phrase (ado nabelo). In summary, this structural alignment facilitates the creation of a cohesive local education program.

Abstract

Abstrak This study aims to describe the anthroponymic forms of the Kayu Agung Village community, Mepanga Subdistrict, and the underlying factors of personal naming based on an onomastic study. Previous anthroponymic studies have predominantly focused on Javanese society and urban areas, while transmigration village communities like Kayu Agung remain under-researched; thus, this study aims to fill that gap. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method, utilizing a data source of 50 community personal names and their naming backgrounds, supported by secondary data from village documents and related literature. Data were collected through observation, interviews, listening, recording, note-taking, and documentation techniques, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results show that the anthroponymic forms of the Kayu Agung community consist of word forms (single words and phrases), language of origin (Javanese, Buginese, Arabic, Indonesian), and lexical forms containing meanings of identity, hopes, and cultural values. The underlying factors for naming include hopes and prayers, family history, and modernization. It can be concluded that the naming system of the Kayu Agung community is not merely about identity, but rather a reflection of cultural values passed down across generations, while simultaneously experiencing shifts due to changing times, education, and religion.

Abstract

English vowel digraphs pose significant challenges for English as a Foreign Language learners due to deep orthographic irregularities and native language interference. This systematic literature review investigates teachers' challenges and material preparation strategies for mitigating these linguistic barriers. Following PRISMA guidelines, 74 articles across major databases were rigorously screened, yielding 8 highly relevant peer-reviewed studies for thematic synthesis. The analysis reveals a critical phonetic gap; notably, studies show that most of EFL students lack adequate grapheme-phoneme knowledge for digraph decoding. To mitigate this, educators are abandoning native-centric textbooks in favor of targeted pedagogical strategies. Integrating technology-enhanced language learning tools and explicit phonics instruction significantly improves decoding accuracy. Furthermore, bespoke phonics-based pronunciation innovations demonstrated high efficacy, has significant instructional efficiency scores in targeted classrooms. Ultimately, overcoming orthographic barriers requires explicit phonetic instruction and the localized development of bespoke, technology-enhanced teaching materials to master irregular spelling patterns.

Abstract

The Ngidak Endhog tradition is a sacred procession in the traditional Javanese wedding Panggih ceremony that serves as a symbolization of entering a new phase of life, cleansing negative energy, and breaking the boundary into maturity. Amidst the tide of transmigration, the core rules (pakem) of this tradition are strictly preserved by the Javanese community in Maku and Langaleso Villages as an instrument for maintaining cultural identity in diaspora lands. This descriptive qualitative study applies Charles Sanders Peirce’s triadic semiotics theory to describe the procedural sequence and analyze the symbolic meaning of material components and physical actions through representamen, object, and interpretant. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, visual documentation, note-taking, and audio recording techniques, and subsequently analyzed through data condensation, data display, and drawing conclusions. The results indicate that the material components reflect collective prayers: endhog (offspring fertility), brass bowl (bokor kuningan) (household foundation), clean water (purity of heart), bunga setaman (fragrance of the family's good name), as well as jarik cloth and white tissue (sincerity and meticulousness). Meanwhile, physical actions are manifested through the groom stepping on and breaking the egg to symbolize the transition into the head of the household; the wife kneeling to wash the husband’s feet as an expression of devotion and respect (ngajeni); and the husband guiding the wife to stand as a symbol of gender equality and equal partnership. The study concludes that the core philosophical values of this tradition are maintained intact as a medium for cultural transmission in Sigi Regency.
