Abstract

This research analyzes the Yamaha Fazzio advertisement using Roland Barthes’ semiotic approach, emphasizing the interplay between verbal and visual sign in constructing a compelling brand narrative. The Yamaha Fazzio advertisement was chosen as the object of study because of its high popularity in the Indonesian market, as well as its unique branding strategy by targeting young, tech-savvy consumers, making it relevant to current market trends. The analysis examines various scenes from the advertisement, showcasing how components such as color, imagery, and textual cues contribute to the portrayal of the Yamaha Fazzio as a symbol of modernity, innovation, and a dynamic lifestyle. Specifically, this research aims to analyze how the verbal and visual signs in Yamaha Fazzio advertisements convey messages regarding product identity and branding. Additionally, this study applies Wierzbicka's color theory to explore the psychological and cultural associations of color in advertisements, offering deeper insights into how semiotics can shape consumer perception and behavior in digital marketing. By integrating these theoretical frameworks, the research underscores the significance of effective communication in advertising and its impact on engaging a tech-savvy audience.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze intonation patterns in the pronunciation of imperative sentences in Arabic. Intonation is a pattern of pitch changes produced by the speaker when pronouncing a sentence or its parts, which greatly affects the meaning of the utterance. This research uses descriptive qualitative methods in the form of verbal data analysis. PRAAT application is used for spectral analysis and sound frequency measurement. The results showed that the common intonation patterns in Arabic imperative sentences are /2-3-1/ and /3-2-1/, in accordance with the theory proposed by Al-Aini. Of the six participants, four of them have intonation patterns that match the native speaker's speech patterns, while the other two participants show variations of intonation patterns that do not match. Factors such as mother tongue influence, inappropriate emphasis or nabr, and ignorance of intonation patterns contributed to the difference. The findings are expected to help in Arabic language teaching, particularly in the phonetic aspect of harf halq, as well as contributing to the fields of Arabic linguistics and Arabic language education.

Abstract

This research investigates the semiotic dimensions of the Manggarai poem Tundu Tenang Curup using Ferdinand de Saussure’s semiotic theory, focusing on icons, symbols, and indices to explore the interplay between signifiers and the signified. Employing a descriptive qualitative method through document analysis, the study reveals that the poem encapsulates cultural values such as communal harmony, resilience, and protection from malevolent influences, deeply rooted in traditional ceremonies like Cear Cumpe and Wuat Wa’i. These findings highlight the poem’s role in embodying and transmitting Manggarai's cultural heritage. Moreover, translations into Indonesian and English broaden the poem’s accessibility and illuminate its literary and cultural significance. This research underscores the critical role of semiotic analysis in understanding indigenous literature and advocates for the preservation of Manggarai cultural traditions.

Abstract

Metaphors have played an important role in providing emotions in song lyrics, but the use of metaphors as a means of self-actualization of emotional expression in popular music is still small. The research “The Use of Metaphor as an Expression of Emotion in Nadin Amizah's Song Lyrics ‘Ah’” makes a unique contribution in highlighting the role of metaphor in building the emotional dimension of Indonesian popular music that has not received much attention in local studies. Most previous studies only focus on metaphors in poetry or prose and pay less attention to popular music genres. This research fills the void by analyzing how metaphors are used to express complex emotions, such as sadness and intimacy, in the song “Ah”, thus providing new insights into the interrelationship between language, music and emotional expression. This study aims to analyze the use of metaphors in the lyrics of the song “Ah” by Nadin Amizah as a means of emotional expression. The metaphors used are classified into three types, namely simple, implicit, and creative metaphors. Simple metaphors are language styles that are composed with straightforward sentence structures and vocabulary so that the meaning can be immediately understood without requiring in-depth interpretation, implicit metaphors are language styles that convey meaning indirectly through symbolism, connotation, or allusion, and creative metaphors are language styles that are innovative and not bound to certain patterns. It emphasizes creativity and originality in conveying ideas or messages. The analysis shows that the lyrics of this song express various emotions, such as happiness, gratitude, hope, and struggle. Simple metaphors are used to convey direct meaning, while implicit metaphors depict hidden meaning. Creative metaphors present unique and original imaginative expressions, reflecting the emotional journey from hardship to happiness. This research supports the theory that metaphors in Indonesian popular music play an important role in strengthening the relationship between songwriters and listeners and serve not only as an aesthetic element but also as an effective tool to create emotional resonance in listeners. In addition, these findings expand the understanding of how metaphors can be a means to communicate positive emotions in a musical context. It is hoped that this research can serve as a reference in the study of music language and literature, as well as encourage further exploration of the influence of metaphors in various genres of music on the emotional experience of listeners

Abstract

The transition to the digital age presents challenges and opportunities for cultural heritage preservation. This research analyzes the role of technology in preserving Javanese cultural heritage through an in-depth study of the video of the song “Saleho” popularized by Denny Caknan and Abah Lala on the YouTube platform. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected from visual observation, lyric analysis, and field notes, focusing on the coding and interpretation of visual and textual meanings, through videos uploaded on the two singers’ official YouTube channels. The analysis used semiotic theory, to identify the denotative and connotative meanings of Javanese cultural values contained in the songs and visualizations presented. The results show that Denny Caknan and Abah Lala have successfully utilized digital platforms to introduce the song “Saleho” to a wider audience, including the younger generation. The use of traditional Javanese costumes and lyrics that are rich in meaning are effective strategies in popularizing the song. However, this study also found modern adaptations in the song’s presentation aimed at attracting listeners, indicating the potential influence of cultural representations on young audience perceptions and cross-cultural adaptation. Implications include the development of a digital cultural heritage preservation methodology and policy recommendations for the creative industries.  Digital technology, especially the YouTube platform, has an important role in the preservation of Javanese songs. Through the case analysis of the song “Saleho”, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of how traditional music can be adapted into a digital format without losing its cultural essence.

Abstract

This study examines the use of expressive illocutionary acts in the Ken Dedes Webtoon, focusing on their role in portraying emotions, attitudes, and social relationships between characters. Using Yule's (1996) speech act theory and a qualitative descriptive approach, the study analyzes five types of expressive acts—gratitude, plea for mercy, anger, surprise, and sarcasm—through the verbal and visual expressions in dialogues. The results reveal that expressions of gratitude reflect respect and politeness norms, contributing to harmonious social relationships. Pleas for mercy highlight hierarchical relationships, illustrating fear and humility as mechanisms to seek forgiveness. Anger expressions emphasize dissatisfaction and interpersonal conflict, while surprise adds dramatic tension by depicting characters’ internal struggles in unexpected situations. Lastly, sarcasm conveys disappointment and critiques through subtle rhetoric, underscoring power dynamics and cultural expectations in hierarchical societies.Overall, the expressive illocutionary acts in Ken Dedes enhance the story's dramatic elements while reflecting Javanese cultural values, such as hierarchy, politeness, and social responsibility. This study contributes to digital pragmatics by demonstrating how Webtoons serve as modern platforms for representing and reinterpreting cultural heritage, making it relevant for the digital generation.

Abstract

Translating interrogative sentences is crucial to preserving the original dialogue's meaning and nuance, as well as conveying emotions such as curiosity or affirmation to the audience. This study aims to analyze the ideology, methods, and translation techniques used and the acceptability of the translated texts of interrogative sentences in Ernest et Célestine. Research on interrogative sentences is still limited, especially in animated films like Ernest et Célestine. Most of the previous studies discuss translation broadly without focusing on interrogative sentences. Using the descriptive qualitative method, this research analyzes and descriptively present the ideology, methods, and techniques used in translating interrogative sentences. In this study, the researcher will classify interrogative sentences based on Anne Dagnac's theory (2024), then analyze the translation ideology based on Venuti's theory and Newmark's translation method (1988) in Siregar (2017), and Molina and Albir's translation technique (2002) in Emzir (2015). The study identifies four translation technique combinations: single, duplet, triplet, and quartet. Among the 18 analyzed samples, domestication was the translation ideology used. The most frequently used translation methods were communicative translation (16 cases), followed by free translation (1 case) and literal translation (1 case). Eight translation techniques were identified, including reduction, common equivalence, adaptation, modulation, amplification, transposition, borrowing, and literal translation. The triplet technique was the most common, followed by quartet, duplet, and single techniques. The translation of interrogative sentences in Ernest et Célestine prioritizes domestication to improve acceptability in the local cultural context, achieved through a combination of translation methods and techniques
