Abstract

Descriptive verbs such as describe and illustrate are regularly used in academic English to express meanings, definition, and arguments. Yet their nuanced usage across spoken and written contexts often create challenges for students. This study investigates the grammatical relations and collocational patterns of describe and illustrate in the British Academic Written English (BAWE) and British Academic Spoken English (BASE) corpora and how its function differently in academic contexts. This study utilize Sketch Engines Word Sketch Difference and N-Gram tools, the research systematically analyzes noun and adverb collocates as subjects, objects, and modifiers, as well as multi-word phrase patterns. Results indicate that in BAWE, describe is predominantly associated with concrete noun subjects, whereas illustrate collocates more with abstract nouns in BASE. This research fills a gap by directly contrasting spoken and written academic registers, providing a phrase bank that can help student both in spoken and written text.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of Scrabble games on word formation in the writing ability of 11th-grade students at SMA PGRI Pekanbaru. The primary objective of this research is to determine whether the use of Scrabble as a learning tool can enhance students' ability to form words effectively and improve their overall writing skills. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving two groups: an experimental group that utilized Scrabble games in their learning process and a control group that followed conventional teaching methods. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests, focusing on students' word formation and writing performance. Based on research, it is observed that the average pre-test score in the experimental class was 62.17, while the average post test score was 72.00. In contrast, the average pre-test score in the control class was 62.88 with a post-test average of 67.96. This indicates an enhancement in the experimental class. The independent Sample T-test conducted using SPSS version 25 yielded a probability value or sig (2-tailed) of 0.043, which is less than 0.05. The results revealed a significant improvement in the experimental group's ability to form words and construct coherent written texts compared to the control group. This suggests that Scrabble games can serve as an effective and engaging tool to enhance students' vocabulary acquisition and writing proficiency. The result of this study provides valuable insights for educators seeking innovative methods to improve writing ability in the classroom.

Abstract

Plagiarism remains a persistent issue among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students, particularly when they rely on translation strategies to navigate academic writing. This study explores Malay EFL students’ understanding and practices of back-translation—a process of translating texts from English to Malay and back to English—which often leads to cross-language plagiarism. Using a mixed-methods sequential explanatory design, data were collected from 30 students at an Islamic university in Indonesia through written tasks, questionnaires, and online interviews. Content analysis, descriptive statistics, and thematic analysis were employed to analyse the data. Findings reveal that most students are unaware that back-translation constitutes plagiarism and lack sufficient knowledge of proper paraphrasing and citation practices when working with multilingual sources. Students frequently depend on translation tools such as Google Translate and Quillbot, which increases the risk of unintentional plagiarism. The study concludes that limited awareness of academic writing conventions in multilingual contexts contributes to cross-language plagiarism, highlighting the need for targeted instruction on translation ethics and academic integrity in Islamic higher education.
