Abstract

This study analyzes the linguistic and paralinguistic features used by students who experience English-speaking anxiety in front of the Islamic Senior High School of Al–Karimi Gresik class. Speaking anxiety makes students afraid to express themselves because they feel incompetent and afraid of making mistakes. The study aimed to discover the linguistic and paralinguistic features shown when students are anxious about speaking. A qualitative method was used with data from voice recorder transcripts and notes. Further data collection was carried out using questionnaires to determine each participant's anxiety level. The findings show that code-mixing is the linguistic feature that most students exhibit. They constantly switch languages to Javanese or Indonesian when they experience anxiety due to vocabulary limitations. Meanwhile, pausing in the middle of sentences is the most exhibited paralinguistic feature. Based on the findings, it is recommended that English class students increase their vocabulary to reduce the possibility of language switching. In addition, teachers can ask students to prepare visuals and prompts to eliminate pauses and boost fluency.

Abstract

Adapting a novel into a movie combines creative art and technical challenges. The film director is required to make the novel story that is lifted to the big screen have uniqueness from creative ideas with limited film duration, various creative interpretations, and commercial interests. The process will result in two-story forms: maintaining the novel's authenticity or changing specific components. Therefore, this research compares Nancy Springer's Enola Holmes novel, published in 2006, and Harry Bradbeer's film adaptation, released in 2020. This comparison is carried out to find the fidelity or infidelity of using the detective story formula in the Enola Holmes film related to the director's creativity and the technical challenges in the adaptation process. Using the descriptive qualitative method and Cawelti's detective story formula theory, the result of data analysis shows that Enola Holmes' novel is classified into the classic detective story formula. At the same time, the movie adaptation is categorized into the hard-boiled detective story formula. This theory is applied through the differences between the focus of the story, the setting, and the role of women. These differences lead to infidelity in using detective formulas that aim to develop and clarify the storyline and make some things more realistic when the novel's story is adapted into a movie that refers to commercial interests and audience satisfaction.

Abstract

Short stories often encapsulate a focused narrative, usually revolving around a singular event or conflict, and delve into the interactions among characters in a compact yet powerful context. Their brevity allows them to be read in one sitting, which is advantageous for readers with limited time. The intent behind this research is to deeply examine the intrinsic elements that constitute the heart of the story. Intrinsic elements are those foundational aspects that form a literary work, granting it its identity as a piece of literature. In the context of short stories, these elements play a crucial role in shaping the narrative and influencing its overall significance. This study will primarily focus on the plot and character development. An insightful analysis of the plot and characters is vital as they are fundamental components that govern the narrative and its emotional resonance. The plot often revolves around the conflicts—whether internal or external—that the characters encounter. By dissecting how conflicts arise, develop, and resolve, readers can uncover the underlying themes that the author aims to communicate.

Abstract

This research is based on using "ngalem" or praising oral speech in daily communication. “Ngalem” is an expression to show admiration for other people. Nowadays, the use of this term is rarely used in Javanese society. This research aims to describe and explain the metaphors found in Javanese speech when someone "ngalem" or praises another person. Next, provide data using the listen and note method. There are several findings, first, "ngalem" or praise is usually intended to praise the beauty of male and female body parts including the head, body, hands, and feet. Second, the type of metaphor that dominates is anthropomorphic metaphor. "ngalem" tends to match parts of the human body with inanimate objects. Third, the animal metaphor type is used to describe a beautiful neck as coiled like a snake, while the synesthetic metaphor is used to "smile" at the beauty of the lips. Some informants still remember this expression but tend not to understand its meaning. Some informants also no longer introduce these expressions to their children or grandchildren. This research illustrates the Javanese community's declining interest in maintaining and passing on the language to the generations below.
