Abstract

ABSTRACTThis study was carried out to observe the word stress pattern on English words ending in –IC.  It was aimed at confirming a phenomenon that there is a regular stress pattern on the group of English words above—that is the majority of those words always receive a primary stress on the penultimate syllable of the words. The background why this sort of stress pattern is worth studying is that the patterns of  stress on English words are very much arbitrary so that it is quite difficult to pronounce English words with proper stress pattern. Whereas, mistakes in assigning stress on English words may cause differences in meanings which are not desired  by the speaker. The type of method used in this study is inventory and descriptive. The findings of this research indicate that out of 2388 words inventorized from Macquarie Dictionary,  2361 (99%) of English words ending in –IC must be stressed on the penultimate syllable, while only 27 (0.01%) of this type of words displays a deviating stress pattern. The result of this research is quite useful for: firstly, learners of English who want to have a good degree of English pronunciation, and secondly,  teachers of English in guiding their students to be able to give proper and accurate stress on English words in general and English words ending in –IC in particular. To prove whether or not students as well teachers of English, especially students of English in English Departments, have made use of the result of this research in their pronunciation, it is suggested that a research on pronunciation be conducted.  Key words: stress, penultimate, syllable

Abstract

Rapid global development brings some changes in our physical environment. Literary work as a social media need to play a role in encouraging people’s understanding and awareness of the threatened condition of our natural surroundings. Poetry as one of literary genres often depict nature as the image and poetic representation. Romantic British poetry is one tradition that remarkably delineates and glorifies the beauty of nature as their poetic manifesto. In America, there was  transcendentalism that similarly cherished the glory of nature through the transcendentalists’ works such as poetry and fiction. In contemporary American poetry, the splendor of nature again emerges as poetics in many of their works. However, different from their previous modern poetic tradition, this contemporary one put forward nature not just as image but also convey some criticisms towards environmental problems.

Abstract

Le roman policier est un roman lié à la criminalité dont le personnage est un agent de police ou un détective ayant du type protagoniste dont la mission révèle le crime. Quatre éléments construisent le roman policier, ce sont ; l’élément du crime, l’élément du mystère, l’élément du  détective et l’élément de la résolution inattendue à la fin d’histoire. La particularité du roman réalisé par Maurice  Leblanc est que le personnage principal est un voleur, ce n’est donc pas un détective. C’est la raison pour laquelle je voudrais évaluer si les éléments de ce roman policier suivent les normes, cest-à-dire il a les mêmes éléments que les autres romans policiers. Cette recherche utilise la méthode descriptive qualitative pour analyser les données (les éléments construisant le roman, perçus dans les phrases du roman L’Aiguille Creuse. La recherche montre que tous les éléments sont présents : le crime, le mystère, le détective et la résolution inattendue à la fin d’histoire, y compris le génie de Lupin en tant que personnage principal de manifester son victoire contre les trois détectives. A part cela, l’histoire d’amour et le piège se trouvent au début et au cours de l’enquête.

Abstract

This paper attempts to describe features of Seaspeak and suggests a way of teaching this specific kind ofcommunication to learners by using a strategy which is called meaning-focused output strand thatincorporates the productive skills of writing and speaking. This strategy is intended to raise learners’ formawareness typical of seaspeak which has a set of constrains of language use of closed register distinctivefrom that of daily communication. Seaspeak is transactional in nature, involving intership and intrashipcommunication. Intership communication involves a vessel’s OOW and VTS when the ship is about to berth,cast off, load or discharge. Learners at Politeknik Ilmu Pelayaran need to be well-equipped with how tosuccessfully deal with such a communication encountered later as seafarers. One way of achieving this isby having them actively involved in a diologic meaning construction with their peers an a collaborativemanner. Meaning focused output strand provides them with activities that enable them to benefit from thefeedback and correction they get during the join construction of a maritime discourse from their fellowlearners.

Abstract

Applicative constructions refer to those in which an underlying indirect object or oblique is realised as a coreargument. The applied argument replaces P and in most languages becomes the direct object. In mostinstances, the verb usually bears a distinctive inflection expressing the semantic relation borne by the directobject. In Javanese applicative constructions could be intransitive-based and transitive-based, and theyinvolve oblique to 2 advancement or 3-2 advancement. The N- prefix on the verb, the deletion ofpreposition, and the suffix –i/ni or –ake mark the advancement to direct object. The suffix –i/ni is used tomark locative, recipient and destination advancement, whereas the suffix –ake is used to mark benefactiveand instrumental advancement. It is also possible that advancement to direct object is not marked with anysuffix.

Abstract

Teaching English to non-native students in Indonesia, especially pre and elementary school students, is farmore problematic than teaching adult students in the same country. These students are not accustomed touse English in their daily lives. When they are given English lesson at school, they often feel afraid, shy, andlack of confidence in using the target language. Students have those feelings mostly when they have topractice speaking English because they find it difficult as they have to master different elements of languagesuch as vocabulary, pronunciation, structures, functions and so on in order to say what they want (Phillips,1993). Consequently, teachers are strongly required to be more patient, to have more preparation time andto be more creative in designing classroom activities. Experts say that young learners are hard toconcentrate and easily distracted. If teachers are not able to manage their students, their classes willbecome chaotic and riotous ones. In order to minimize that condition, teachers need to make anyanticipation so that they, instead of their students, can take control of their classes. One of the ways is bymaking classroom language. This will help teachers to organize their classes and ultimately make theirstudents speak using the target language. This paper promotes classroom language as it is concrete,meaningful, and has communicative nature. Hughes (1990) states that the phrase ‘Open your books at page10, please’ does not make the students only repeat, translate, evaluate as true or false or put into negative,but this makes them do the simple action of opening a textbook after understanding the genuine instruction.Furthermore, classroom phrases help the students to use the target language in appropriate context andindirectly accustom them to the form-function relationships and discrepancies that are parts of English.Considering the phenomena above, this paper offers some techniques that may be used in applyingclassroom language. Some of those techniques include a lot of drilling techniques and fun games.Hopefully, this paper may become one of considerations to be used by EFL teachers in encouraging theirstudents to be able to speak the target language in most of their time in their English classes. However, thispaper is still far of perfection. It still needs a lot of suggestions and deeper discussion from those who aredealing with researches of the same topic.
