Abstract

The present study focuses on the problems faced by the sixth-semester students of Nursing Study Program at Health Polytechnic of Makassar in Speaking English. It uses a descriptive method to describe the students’ spoken problems which lie in language elements, psychological factors, and learning situation. The subject of the study is taken using cluster random sampling technique. This study uses two kinds of instrument, namely questionnaire and interview. Both are used to identify and to find out the problems faced by the students in speaking English. The findings of the study show the students’ obstacles in speaking English, namely: the lack of grammar understanding (68%) the lack of confidence (62%), the infrequent practice (58%), the lack of vocabulary (50%), the low motivation (46%), the anxiety (44%), the influence of classroom interaction (44%), the low listening skill (40%), the lack of knowledge and interest (32%), the influence of mother tongue or local language (28%), the impact of formal events (28%), the lack of pronunciation (24%) and the inappropriate topic talk(16%). Thus, it is implied that the problems faced by the students in speaking English need serious attention for the teachers of English to conduct an effective teaching method to help encourage the students to speak English.

Abstract

The dimensions of strategic and systematic silencing in America have ramifications for the economic survival of African Americans. The motif of devocalization has been creatively engaged in Toni Morrison’s Home and God Help the Child (2015). Through experimentation with language, Morrison has mobilized her linguistic genius towards the exploration of the themes of mobility, devocalization, commodification, and convolution of other themes. Through this, Morrison once again establishes the intricate connection between her language and her artistic vision, vis-à-vis her commitment to the African American cause. A psychoanalytic evaluation of her themes of strategic economic silencing, poverty, and systematic devocalization, validates Freud’s pleasure vs reality principle, unearthing her characters’ emotional imbalances and how they channel the untapped desires for pleasure towards a productive end in the face of their harrowing realities. New historicism helps the paper to situate the collective complex of the African American community within the different historical periods, espousing the different discourses and how they inform and are informed by the emotional climate of the times.
