Abstract

ELT professionals and scholars have voiced differing opinions on issues related to nativeness. Given the lack of empirical studies on this topic, the present study aims to document perceptions of non-native teachers on the issues of nativeness. The participants of the study were drawn from one hundred English teachers taught at tertiary level in Indonesia. The study found that the teachers beliefs about the issue of nativeness varied considerably depending on the language skill concerned. However, most respondents agreed that nativeness should not be the determining factor of what constitute a good teacher of English, as educational background and teaching skills should be taken into account. This study learns that the role of non-native English-speaking teachers needs to be further explored and socialized particularly in Indonesia where such issues are rarely addressed.

Abstract

Most of Fitzgerald's novels and stories start as a romance of love or a fantasy of extravagant glamour in representing his characters. Bernice Bobs Her Hair, however, suggests Fitzgerald's different approach by reducing this element. Critics believe that it is simply because it is a short story, or maybe because it is more based on his personal concern about the society. Nevertheless, t~is work has surprised many people that latter become Fitzgerald'5 unique characteristics in writing his fictions. Compared to other Fitzgerald's work, Bernice's settings and the interplay between its characters and the places they live are quite simple. However, this simplicity contains deceptive symbolism that replicates American culture in the twenties. Fitzgerald's unparalleled representation of Jazz Age as a time of post war's confusion as well as negative consequence of industrialism is brilliantly pictured in this story. Fitzgerald uses the twenties, the time setting of the story. as a source of imagery objects that reflects social trends and individual desires. Although he uses local and restricted settings for the action site of the story, the impression of America in the twenties can be strongly feltin this story. Such quality, the writer argues, proves the outstanding ability of Fitzgerald's fiction in picturing the story with its complexities and sophistication that crosses the barrier of time and space.

Abstract

This paper discusses a number of common linguistic challenges or issues or problems which learners (would-be teachers) of the English language encounter when attempting to express themselves in written form, particularly in paragraph writing. The paper also suggests strategies for dealing with the challenges and points out (dis)advantages of using a certain evaluation approach. Generally, the common language issues can, for example, be classified into: 1. articles, 2. concord or agreement, 3. finite verbs, 4. prepositions, 5. countable and uncountable nouns, 6. sentence levels (fragments, comma splices and run-on or fused sentences) and 7. spelling. Other general, more abstract challenges include diction or word choice, idiomatic expressions and sentence variations. The so-called Minimum Requirements, which are commonplace mistakes, as mostly listed in numbers 1-7 above and which learners (particularly those who are English teacher candidates) should avoid, are put forward and commented on. The writer believes this grammar-oriented approach still remains relevant.

Abstract

Gender-related humors have their own way of being funny; and this research aims to find out how and why they are funny. For this purpose, both researchers have collected 50 gender cyber humors and analyzed them, first, to decode how their logical mechanism relates to specific linguistic features, and secondly, to uncover how gender stereotyping contributes to the comical effects. The twisting of logic and linguistic ambiguity is analyzed formally using Attardos (2001) General Theory of Verbal Humor (GTVH) and supported by gender studies. The findings reveal that the logical mechanism consists of elements of incongruities, and gender stereotyping presents negative stereotypical images. The analysis further shows that some gender stereotypical images ridicule traditional roles of man and woman while others make fun of non-traditional representations. This shift from women only to both men and women as targets of gender humors has been an impact of effective feminist movements.

Abstract

According Kundera, a novel is not convention but is a writer's investigation of experience in the pitfalls of life. A novel can be used to discuss the issues of women and gender. One novel that explores the issue of women is Burung-burung Rantau by YB Mangunwijaya. There are three social processes in the formation of women's realities, namely: construction, deconstruction and reconstruction. Burungburung Rantau successfully portrays the practice of construction, deconstruction and reconstruction of the reality of women. Yuniati reflects the female construction of a mature woman, while Anggraini and Marineti undergo the process of deconstruction and reconstruction. Anggraini is hesitant in making decisions, while Marineti tends to be confident in her choices. The practice of construction, deconstruction and reconstruction of speech acts can be seen in the dialogues of the characters in the novel. They are also evident in the choice of words, figure of speech, and sentence structures used in the frame of discourse, power, inequality, and gender perspectives.
