Abstract

English has distinctive characteristics that may differ from those of a student’s native language, and it is essential to grasp the differences. That is why it is crucial for students studying English as a Foreign Language (EFL) to understand the nuances of English pronunciation because a mispronunciation of a word may result in a lack of comprehension. The objective of this study is to identify the mispronunciation made by students in their pursuit of fluency in English. It employed a descriptive qualitative approach. In order to collect the data, the EFL students were required to read ten prepared English sentences, which had been selected according to the topic that they had been learning. In this study, Davies' theory was used as a reference, particularly in relation to English phonemes. The results demonstrated that there were pronunciation errors in six vowel sounds, three diphthongs, and six consonant sounds. When pronouncing a word in a sentence, EFL students tend to be influenced by their first language. Therefore, the acquisition of knowledge regarding the phonemic differences inherent to the English language will have a beneficial effect on the advancement of the language skills of students engaged in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) studies.

Abstract

This study analyzes the characterization of Grace, the main protagonist in ” Ready or Not” (2019), a movie about Grace, a newlywed who must survive from deadly game of hide-and-seek on her wedding night. This study used a qualitative descriptive method to identify and understand Grace’s character and used the observation method for the data collection. The data was collected from the movie, and accessed through the “Loklok” platform. The characterization of Grace was analyzed from three dimensions: psychological, sociological, and physiological, based on the theory of Wellek and Warren (1962). The study found the characterization of Grace Le Domas's transformation from naive to survival. Physiologically, Grace’s appearance shifts dramatically from a pristine wedding dress to a tattered, bloodied garment, symbolizing her transition through the trauma of her ordeal. Psychologically, her transformation from innocence to a determined survivor emphasizes the movie's exploration of the psychological effects of extreme tension and survival instincts. Sociologically, Grace’s lower socio-economic status compared to the wealthy Le Domas family emphasizes her struggle and effect on her decisions, highlighting the movie's critique of class disparity. Her transformation from innocence to survival, and eventually to violence, illustrates the transformative potential of horror narratives to explore the darker sides of human nature. Grace's characterization is important, it reflects the movie's larger themes, which include the corruption of wealth, the breaching of moral and social norms, and survival. This study contributes to the field of literary analysis by enriching the understanding of character development, especially in horror narratives.

Abstract

Accurate subtitle translation is essential in films, as it influences viewers' comprehension and connection with cultural nuances. This study addresses the challenges in automated subtitle translation, focusing on translation errors in idiomatic expressions, abbreviations, slang, onomatopoeia, and address terms. This research addresses a gap in the field by directly comparing the two automated translation tools using Koponen's (2010) error classification theory, highlighting their limitations in handling idiomatic expressions and cultural nuances, thereby providing insights necessary for enhancing automated translation algorithms. The methodology applied is descriptive qualitative. This study evaluates and compares translation errors in subtitles generated by YouTube Automated Translation and DeepL for F The Prom movie, highlighting that both systems have significant limitations in accurately translating idiomatic expressions, slang, and cultural nuances. YouTube often misses culturally specific terms, while DeepL struggles with idioms and slang, indicating a critical need to enhance translation algorithms to improve accuracy and the viewing experience, particularly for non-native speakers.

Abstract

To achieve the goal of effective communication, participants in a conversation must adhere to the cooperative principle. This study aims to examine the maxims of cooperative principle applied by the characters in an animated film that depicts differences in the characters' life backgrounds. The chosen film provides a rich context for exploring how language functions in characters’ interactions across cultural differences, thus this could be interesting to analyze in this topic.  This study employed a qualitative method. The data were obtained through observation and note-taking techniques. The observation method involved watching the Elemental movie on Disney+ Hotstar. The note-taking technique involved manually transcribing the script and categorizing the utterances, in accordance with Grice's (1975) theory of cooperative principle and Halliday and Hasan's (1985) context of situation. The discussion revealed that all four maxims of cooperative principle were found in the characters' utterances in the film. There were 42 maxims found in total, divided into four categories: 8 quantity maxims, 20 quality maxims, 7 relation maxims, and 7 manner maxims. A speaker still fulfills the maxim of manner, even if the utterance conveyed is not that brief, because the speaker is still in shock from what they have just experienced. The most frequently used maxim is quality, which indicates that the characters adhere to the truthfulness of information, whereas the least utilized maxims are relation and manner, which could be due to the diverse perspectives from each character's life backgrounds. This study shows that Elemental demonstrates clarity in communication is not only about grammatical accuracy; it involves emotional awareness and intentional expression. It enhances the nurtures mutual understanding across the differences among the Elemental characters and a good character development.

Abstract

In the context of parenting, the choice of language by parents becomes a critical tool for conveying values, rules, and emotional support to children. This study investigates parental communication preferences for using Indonesian versus Madurese in rural communities and their impact on child-rearing practices. This research is a descriptive qualitative study. The method employed is the observation and participation technique, where the researcher observes and records the speech of rural communities related to parenting communication in Indonesian through recording and note-taking techniques. Besides, the researcher uses reflective introspective methods, based on the experiences of both the researcher and the informants. The researcher also conducts interviews with community leaders, linguists, artists, cultural figures, and rural community members. Once the data is collected, the researcher performs data reduction, classification, and validation according to the data type. Subsequently, data tabulation is carried out by coding each data entry listed in tables, followed by data interpretation and conclusion drawing. The research findings indicate a tendency among educated generations to raise their children using the Indonesian language, which is viewed negatively by Generation X. It is because the use of the Madurese language is considered an essential strategy in instilling moral values in children, especially in interactions with older individuals. The use of Indonesian is perceived as potentially distancing children from their cultural roots. Moreover, this study also finds that parental preferences for using the Indonesian language in parenting communication within rural communities encompass elements of nationalism, the role of Indonesian in rural societies, and Indonesian language communication in parenting in rural settings.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze how Tempo magazine uses verbal and visual signs on its covers to construct political narratives and shape public discourse related to the current political situation. Using semiotic analysis, the study examines the way Tempo magazine uses a combination of verbal and visual elements to convey complex political narratives. Two specific covers, “Cawe-Cawe Setelah Pencoblosan” and “Saling Kunci Kursi Menteri,” are analyzed to uncover the implicit messages and socio-political contexts represent. Qualitative methods are applied in this research. The research fr is based on Chandler's (2007) theory of signs, Barthes' (1968) concepts of connotation and denotation, and Cerrato's (2012) color analysis framework. The results indicate the selected magazine covers contain 22 verbal signs and 17 visual signs. Both covers use striking visuals and provocative text to illustrate complex political narratives and make power struggles clearer. Tempo effectively blends cultural language and visual metaphors to simplify these dynamics, highlighting the need for media literacy to understand such messages. The findings highlight how Tempo strategically employs strong imagery and provocative headlines to frame political events, thereby influencing public perceptions and contributing to the construction of political discourse in Indonesia. The conclusion emphasizes that media, through such visual and verbal strategies, not only reflects but actively shapes political realities, underscoring the significant role of the press in guiding public opinion and shaping socio-political narratives. These insights suggest a broader implication for the media’s role in both informing and influencing the political landscape in Indonesia.

Abstract

Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that affects various aspects of a child's development, including language abilities. This study aims to identify and analyze the fluency, articulation, and sentence structure abilities of autistic children at SMAN 1 Glenmore, Banyuwangi Regency. The research employs a qualitative descriptive design. The data in this study consists of words and sentences, with the data sources being autistic students from Class X IPS4 at SMAN 1 Glenmore Banyuwangi. The method used for data collection is the observation-participation method, where the researcher observes the spoken and written expressions of autistic students from Class X IPS4 SMAN 1 Glenmore Banyuwangi through recording and note-taking techniques. Additionally, interviews were conducted with the autistic students, teachers, parents, and the students' peers. After the data was collected, the researcher performed data reduction, classification, verification, tabulation, and coding for each data set. Finally, the researcher interpreted the data and drew conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the expressive language abilities of autistic children are still hindered by several factors, such as fluency in speaking, pronunciation, and unclear articulation, especially in words containing the letters or endings L, N, M, R, T, and NG. Autistic children tend to speak in short phrases and are experience significant challenges in active communication, nor can they convey information clearly. However, Bela Citra Kinanjur (BCK) is able to write independently with simple compositions, although some grammatical errors are still present, such as in the use of articles, spacing, and writing mechanics. Based on these findings, it is recommended that teachers help build the confidence of autistic students through public speaking activities, writing therapy, and word-building stimulation.
