Abstract

This paper aims to describe the types of modality expressions in English and Indonesian folktales and to examine the extent to which these two groups of writers express modality differently. This study was conducted as descriptive qualitative research, focusing on the use of modalities in Indonesian and English folktales. A total of 30 folktales were collected from the United States, Britain, and Indonesia as the data sources. The data were analyzed based on the theories of Nuyts (2002) and Bybee (1994). The results show that native English writers tend to express deontic modality primarily through modal auxiliaries such as shall, should, can, could, must, and may. However, epistemic meanings are conveyed not only through modal auxiliaries but also through adjectives, adverbs, and lexical verbs, with lexical verbs being the most frequently used. In contrast, non-native writers used fewer varieties of modality expressions, including modal auxiliaries, adjectives, adverbs, lexical verbs, and multi-word units, often relying on the same types of expressions across the folktales. Unlike deontic modality, the folktales are rich in epistemic modality, as the writers used a wider range of expressions to convey these meanings.

Abstract

The phenomenon of food vloggers sharing their culinary experiences through videos presents an interesting area for sociopragmatic studies. This research focuses on understanding the social interactions and pragmatic contexts within food vlogging content. Specifically, the study aims to map the development of sociopragmatic research on the YouTube platform in relation to food vlogging. Using qualitative methods and bibliometric analysis, this study identifies and analyzes publications related to sociopragmatics and food vlogging from electronic databases such as Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar. Keywords such as "sociopragmatics," "food vlogging," and "YouTube" were used to gather relevant data. Bibliometric analysis was conducted using Publish or Perish and VOSviewer software, enabling the processing and visualization of data in this field. The findings indicate a growing interest in food vlogging as a research subject, although studies explicitly examining sociopragmatic aspects remain limited. These findings highlight opportunities for in-depth research on sociopragmatic aspects, such as the use of speech acts, politeness in language, vloggers' communication strategies, interactions between vloggers and viewers, the construction and negotiation of social identities in vlog content, and the reflection of cultural values and social norms in social media interactions, particularly on YouTube.

Abstract

This study explores the use of the transference translation procedure in translating proper names in the novel Cigarette Girl by Ratih Kumala. It aims to determine the frequency of transference translation procedure usage in translating proper names and to investigate the reasons behind the translator’s decision to retain certain names unmodified. Using a qualitative descriptive method, data were collected from the English and Indonesian versions of Cigarette Girl through observation and note-taking, then analyzed descriptively. The results indicate that the transference procedure was used a total of 62 times in translating proper names. The highest frequency of transference application was found in the categories of personal names and personifications, with a total of 30 instances. The lowest frequency was in the category of unique event names, with only one instance. The primary reason for using the transference procedure was to preserve the specific meanings embedded in the original names.

Abstract

The ability to speak effectively refers to an individual’s capacity to convey thoughts and ideas orally. Various teaching strategies are employed to enhance speaking skills, with traditional methods primarily relying on teacher-driven assessments. However, incorporating peer assessment has emerged as a valuable approach that enables students to identify their strengths and areas for improvement, promoting the development of language proficiency, metacognitive awareness, and related skills. This study aims to implement peer assessment as an alternative evaluative method in the Speaking in Academic Contexts course, which includes both informative and persuasive speech tasks. Quantitative data were analyzed descriptively, with mean and standard deviation calculations comparing peer assessment scores to those assigned by the instructor. The Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test was applied to determine statistically significant differences between the two sets of scores. Qualitative data, derived from students’ reflections, were analyzed using thematic analysis. Overall, students in the Speaking in Academic Contexts course reported positive perceptions of peer assessment, recognizing its potential to enhance their language skills and foster learner autonomy.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the extent to which the use of the Undercover Game could improve Indonesian English course students’ vocabulary mastery. The study involved eight senior high school students enrolled in an English course at an institution in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. A Classroom Action Research (CAR) design was employed, consisting of three cycles, each of which included planning, acting and observing, and re-planning phases, with an observation checklist and field notes used as data collection instruments. Pre-tests and post-tests were conducted before Cycle 1 and after Cycle 3, respectively. Based on the observations, using the Undercover Game helped students find and practice English vocabulary in a fun and engaging way. However, the results of a paired sample t-test indicated that there was no significant difference in these students' vocabulary mastery before and after using the game. These findings highlight the importance of tailoring instructional game rules, designs, and implementations to fit classroom conditions, including adjusting the difficulty level of the games and providing necessary support during gameplay. Future studies could investigate the use of the Undercover Game over a longer period to obtain more comprehensive findings.

Abstract

This study investigates how English department students perceive the use of social media for learning English. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative and qualitative data collected through questionnaires and structured interviews. A total of 88 students from several universities in Indonesia completed a 22-item questionnaire distributed via Google Forms, and three of these respondents were selected for follow-up interviews conducted via WhatsApp. Questionnaire responses were analyzed statistically, while interview data were examined using Miles and Huberman’s flow model. The findings indicate that students generally hold positive perceptions of using social media to support independent English learning. YouTube was identified as the most frequently used platform. Students reported that social media helps improve their comprehension, vocabulary development, and pronunciation, and described the experience as enjoyable and motivating beyond the classroom setting. Despite these benefits, students also encountered obstacles such as poor internet connectivity, concerns over data privacy, and exposure to inappropriate content.

Abstract

Finding ideas to write about is a common challenge for many EFL learners in developing their writing skills. This study aimed to investigate whether writing about daily activities (i.e., journaling) improves the writing ability of EFL students at a junior high school in Aceh Tengah. A quantitative, experimental research design was employed. The sample consisted of 46 eighth-grade students, with 22 in the experimental group and 24 in the control group. Pre- and post-tests were used to measure the students’ performance before and after the intervention. Results showed that the experimental group’s mean score increased significantly from 48 (pre-test) to 82 (post-test). A t-test analysis revealed that t(44) = 4.92, p < .05, indicating a significant difference between the groups. This result suggests that journaling practice had a statistically significant positive effect on the EFL students’ writing ability.

Abstract

This descriptive qualitative study investigates pronunciation errors in Indonesian nasal consonants made by native Arabic speakers. Using a reading elicitation technique, data were collected focusing on the pronunciation of the nasal consonants /ŋ/ and /ɲ/, which were then transcribed using International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) symbols. The analysis involved identifying distinctive features of sounds within the nasal segment when errors occurred. The results revealed a consistent pattern of assimilation, with changes notably influenced by surrounding sounds. Velar nasals underwent assimilation influenced by both vowels and consonants, resulting in substitutions such as /ʔ/, /ɢ/, and /n/. In contrast, palatal nasals showed assimilation primarily influenced by adjacent vowels, leading to alterations represented by /ʔ/ and /ɲj/. These findings highlight the systematic nature of phonological errors in the pronunciation of nasal consonants by Arabic speakers learning Indonesian and offer valuable insights for language instructors and researchers in the field of second language acquisition.

Abstract

This study investigates the strategies employed by participants to assert dominance in a legal discussion featured in the YouTube video “Janggalnya Kasus Vina Menyasar ke Mana-mana.” Adopting an ethnomethodological approach grounded in Conversation Analysis (CA), the study identifies key dominance strategies, including turn-taking control, interruptions, overlaps, topic shifting, and assertive language use. These strategies serve as critical tools for establishing dominance in high-stakes interactions such as legal debates. The analysis utilized the Jefferson Transcription System to examine how conversational control influences the progression and outcomes of legal discussions. Findings indicate that legal practitioners with institutional authority, expertise, or professional standing assert dominance through assertive language, strategic questioning, and frequent interruptions, while other participants assume less dominant roles. The study contributes to understanding how interactional dominance operates in formal legal settings, where institutional status and expertise often outweigh previously emphasized factors such as gender. These insights have practical implications for legal and communication professionals navigating power dynamics in formal discourse.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the learning obstacles experienced by eighth-grade students at a Madrasah Tsanawiyah in studying the topic of al-Afʿāl al-Muʿrabāt. A qualitative approach was employed using the Didactical Design Research (DDR) method. Participants included 47 students and one Arabic teacher. Data were collected through tests and non-test instruments, including in-depth interviews. Data analysis followed Miles and Huberman’s framework, which involves data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that students experienced both ontogenic and epistemological obstacles. Ontogenic obstacles included psychological factors (such as low motivation and interest) and instrumental difficulties, with technical incomprehension being the primary challenge. These findings suggest the need for instructional solutions. The study recommends the development of a DDR-based learning design tailored to students’ needs and informed by the identified learning obstacles.
