Abstract

Second language learning is becoming a research trend. Unfortunately, there was a lack of research that sketched this field. In filling this gap, this study aims to map the research trends in second language learning in Scopus. This study was conducted by bibliometric analysis involving research articles on second language learning in 2013-2022. The data were collected from Scopus. The data were analyzed using the VOSviewer application to visualize research trends. The current study found that research clusters focused on students (motivation and emotions), second language learning, and linguistics elements (word, lexicon, and speech). Research focuses on school-based second language learning. Over the past decade, second language learning has combined education, psychology, neurology, and technology. From 2017, second language learning publications rose considerably. The United States has published the most second-language acquisition articles over the past decade. The United Kingdom is the second country with the most publications. Five of the ten top countries originate from the Europe, two from North America, and the remaining two from China and Hong Kong. The results benefit teachers in teaching, students in the learning process, and researchers in investigating second language learning.

Abstract

Speech errors can occur due to language activation and competition in the human brain as a symptom of language friction. Many researchers have studied the language friction and published their findings, indicating that the study about this issue is interesting to conduct. The current literature study aims to review previous research on language friction in terms of methods and linguistics theories applied in those studies. A systematic method was used in this research to select research articles on the language friction, and resulted in 17 articles to be reviewed. Those articles are published in Scopus indexed journals. It is found that in the last seven years, studies on language friction have shown an increasing trend, indicating that this issue is still relevant to study. In addition, most of them indicate that language friction has been analyzed based on psycholinguistics and sociolinguistics theories. However, it is not enough to study language friction from psycholinguistic and sociolinguistic perspectives, but also needs to be studied from ethnosociolinguistic perspective. This literature study can help educators and English language learners to choose learning methods by considering the language friction experienced by learners. Furthermore, by understanding the language friction, speech participants can overcome misunderstandings in communication.

Abstract

Said stated that Orientalism is the domination of the West over the East. Orientalism emerged after many trips made by European countries, causing the Orient or East to be exploited by the West. One form of exploitation is present in the film industry, as presented by the animation Isle of Dogs (2018) by Wes Anderson. This research uses Boggs and Petrie's (2018) cinematography theory to look at the symbols presented through places and characters in the film. Stuart Hall's representation theory (1997) is used to interpret symbols which are representations of Japanese culture. This research shows dichotomies used in the film, such as Japanese and English language, humans, and animals (dogs), modernity and traditional, active American students and passive Japanese students as symbol or representation of West and East which is an element of orientalism. The result of this research shows that this film has an attempt to destroy the idea of orientalism, but the representation of Japan presented in this film confirms the idea of orientalism itself. Hence, it can be said that this film failed to deconstruct the orientalism.

Abstract

This study explains the discourse on language use that occurs in fundamental and moderate Islamic groups on Facebook. The design of this study utilized a qualitative descriptive method. The data were in the forms of Facebook statuses uploaded by fundamental and moderate Islamic groups. The data sources were from 20 Facebook accounts affiliated with fundamental and moderate Islam. The data collection technique was carried out by observing Facebook status and layer captures. Data analysis was carried out through several stages by way of categorizing data and applying narrative analysis techniques. A data triangulation technique was carried out to check data validity. The results of this study show fundamental Islamism as a form of language identity expression and language identity among moderate Muslims. This finding has implications that language is not just a medium for conveying information to opponents, but also a battle of Islamic ideologies that fundamentalists and moderate Islamists uphold.

Abstract

In an exemplary test implementation, the items used should be fair and free from bias. This biased content threatens the validity that will affect the interpretation of the test results. This study aims to analyze the biased content of items and tests on the test device for the Commercial English Course, with the code ADBI4201, a course in the Business Administration Study Program at the Faculty of Law, Social, and Political Sciences, Open University (UT). It uses the quantitative approach. Data were collected through documentation in the form of grids and responses from final semester test participants in January 2024. Data analysis was carried out by (1) estimating item parameters using classical test theory and item response theory for tests, (2) estimating item parameters based on regional groups and based on gender, which are used to identify DIF content, (3) testing the significance of DIF with a maximum likelihood comparison. The study's findings showed 26 items contained DIF by gender and 25 items contained DIF by region. The results of the test bias detection showed that the test slightly favored the female group and the students from the Java region.

Abstract

This study explores the linguistic construction of the expressive speech act of penantian (waiting) in Didi Kempot's song lyrics by employing a descriptive qualitative method with a pragmatic-semantic framework, drawing from Searle’s theory of speech acts and Cruse’s lexical semantics. The analysis was conducted on a corpus of six popular songs selected purposively based on the dominance of penantian themes. Each lyric was examined in terms of its expressive act, contextual meaning, and cultural-symbolic references. This phenomenon of penantian, often associated with deep emotions such as sadness, longing, and resignation, reflects Didi Kempot’s strong identity as Indonesia’s “Godfather of Broken Heart.” The findings reveal eleven expressive variants of penantian (e.g., hope, longing, grief) and seven context-based meanings (e.g., longing for reunion, emotional endurance, betrayal of promises). Furthermore, linguistic representations are constructed through culturally loaded temporal (e.g., "a year," "the third season") and spatial symbols (e.g., "Stasiun Balapan," "Nickerie"), which—when interpreted through a cultural semiotic perspective—highlight the embodiment of time and space in Javanese emotional expression. Using figures of speech such as hyperbole, personification, and metaphor further enhances the dramatic expression of penantian. These findings demonstrate how Didi Kempot utilizes culturally resonant language to articulate the intricate emotional landscape of waiting, betrayal (cidra), and heartbreak (ambyar), thus contributing to the study of pragmatics and semantics within a culturally contextualized framework of regional music.

Abstract

This study explores the influence of critical thinking skills and digital literacy on academic essay-writing skills among university students. Employing an associative quantitative approach, it examines the relationship between two independent variables—critical thinking skills and digital literacy—and the dependent variable, academic essay-writing ability. Data were collected through a cross-sectional survey of a sample of 150 students selected using simple random sampling and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS software. The findings reveal that critical thinking skills exert a significant and dominant influence on academic essay-writing ability, whereas digital literacy makes a smaller but still significant contribution. These results underscore the importance of integrating critical thinking skills and digital literacy into the educational curriculum as a strategy to enhance the quality of students’ academic writing. This research also offers recommendations for educators and policymakers to design more effective learning approaches that support the development of students’ 21st-century skills.

Abstract

The Indonesian language is becoming increasingly important globally, creating a growing demand for its instruction, including in France. However, learners often face difficulties due to interference between their mother tongue and the Indonesian language they are learning. While some papers offered solutions to overcome these difficulties, these have tended to concentrate on the linguistic aspects and have overlooked the extralinguistic aspects. This paper seeks to address the issue by examining the extralinguistic aspects found in recordings of 10 Indonesian sentences containing phonemes expected to trigger pronunciation errors and spoken by three Malay-Indonesian studies students from different academic years at the Institut National des Langues et Civilisations Orientales (INALCO), from three different college levels. The data was collected through three separate interviews, including the recording of the aforementioned sentences and a discussion about the subjects’ linguistic background. The result was then examined to highlight the extralinguistic and linguistic factors affecting the production of interference. Afterwards, this paper then offers pedagogical suggestions. The study mainly uses phonemic interference and language learning theory, as well as theories related to the psychological and socio-cultural aspects of language learning. This research found that motivation and learning strategy are the two most important variables in the psychological aspect, while input and feedback are the most important aspects in the socio-cultural aspect. Nevertheless, the most decisive factor in Indonesian mastery is the duration of learning.
