Abstract

Register variation, a central concept in sociolinguistics, refers to how language adapts to specific social and situational contexts. This study investigates register as it operates in live European football commentary, a high-intensity communicative environment where language must perform multiple simultaneous functions. Drawing on register theory, the research employs a descriptive qualitative method to analyze transcribed commentary from major football matches broadcast on official platforms. The data were coded and interpreted using a framework focused on lexical choice, syntactic structure, tonal modulation, and rhythmic delivery. The findings reveal that football commentators employ a fluid, adaptive register marked by idiomatic expressions, clause fragmentation, evaluative and rhetorical tone, and dynamic pacing. These features serve both narrative and affective purposes, enhancing audience engagement and constructing shared emotional experiences. The study contributes to sociolinguistic theory by situating register within live, performative media discourse, offering insights into how language functions as social action in real-time contexts. The implications extend to sports media, discourse analysis, and broader media linguistics, where understanding register can inform training, content design, and cross-cultural communication strategies.

Abstract

This study investigates how a multilingual parent's language ideologies influence and support their children's English language learning within the home environment. Using Spolsky’s Family Language Policy framework, this research explores how a single parent's beliefs about English shape language practices and exposure strategies. The primary objective of the study is to understand how parental ideologies translate into practical actions that foster children's English proficiency. A qualitative case study approach was adopted, involving in-depth interviews and observations with a single multilingual parent and her two children. Data focused on the parent's perspectives, routines, and decisions regarding English use at home. The findings reveal that the parent's positive beliefs about English as a tool for future success and social mobility motivated deliberate strategies to integrate the language into everyday life. These strategies included early exposure through English-language media, routine incorporation of English into conversations, and the flexible use of code-switching between English and Indonesian. While these practices provided a strong foundation for bilingual development, differences in exposure between siblings were observed due to challenges such as limited resources and varying parental availability. The older child demonstrated greater English fluency, benefiting from early and consistent exposure, while the younger child faced limited opportunities for language practice. The study concludes that parental language ideologies play a transformative role in shaping informal language learning opportunities. By aligning her beliefs with practical strategies, parents can create adaptive and supportive multilingual environments that foster English proficiency. These findings offer valuable insights for multilingual families seeking to balance language development with cultural and social integration in diverse contexts.

Abstract

This study explores the complexities of teacher talk in English language learning through a discourse analysis of classroom interactions in a non-formal educational setting. The school provides a learning environment that caters to diverse groups of students, with a focus on developing their English communication skills. Three English teachers participated in the study. Classroom interactions were recorded and analyzed over two weeks using discourse analysis. Findings reveal that classroom interaction is shaped significantly by how teachers use language to facilitate learning. Teachers often face challenges in consistently using English, stemming from their limited proficiency and concerns about students' ability to comprehend. The study identifies key patterns of teacher talk, including questioning, giving instructions, lecturing, and using expressions to support student engagement and comprehension. These patterns are shown to impact student understanding and participation, particularly in contexts where English is not the primary language. Through discourse analysis, the study sheds light on how teacher talk functions within instructional conversations and highlights its influence on students' cognitive and communicative development in English language classrooms. Overall, the study shows that the way teachers talk in class affects how students learn and interact, especially in settings where English is not their first language. It also suggests that teacher training should pay more attention to classroom talk and how it can support language development.

Abstract

This essay explores the impact of Extensive Reading (ER) on vocabulary acquisition among junior high school students, highlighting its potential as an effective and engaging language-learning strategy. ER emphasizes reading a variety of texts chosen based on personal interests, creating a natural and immersive environment for students to encounter new words in meaningful contexts. Unlike traditional vocabulary instruction, ER fosters incidental learning, encouraging students to develop language skills through enjoyable and authentic reading experiences. To assess its effectiveness, this study analyzed the pre- and post-ER vocabulary scores of 21 junior high school students. The results revealed a statistically significant improvement in their vocabulary knowledge, underscoring the effectiveness of ER in promoting language growth. These findings not only validate the role of ER in enhancing vocabulary acquisition but also shed light on its broader potential for improving overall language proficiency. By incorporating ER into language curricula, educators can offer a more holistic and student-centered approach to language learning. This research highlights the importance of integrating ER into educational frameworks to cultivate lifelong reading habits while simultaneously boosting linguistic competence. As such, this study provides valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and researchers aiming to enhance language instruction for junior high school learners.

Abstract

Generally, English has been taught in Indonesia for ages, yet it is still accounted as a great barrier for Indonesian people. They often faced the necessity of good English proficiency in many areas, such as school or even the workplace, proven in such a certification. TOEFL is one of the most commonly known certification providers, yet many students reported having difficulties in reaching a certain score, especially in the structure and written expression section. This is a pre-experimental study with a one-group pre-post-test design in an effort to improve structure using the TOEFL Test Pro application. The population sample of this study was 104, with 78 respondents using probability sampling under some inclusion criteria. The data collection was done by using an assessment format and an interview, which were then analyzed by using t-tests and paired t-tests. The results show that there were significant differences in the students pre- and post-test scores with a significant value of 0.000 < 0.05. Therefore, the use of TOEFL Test Pro enhances students' structure and written expression scores.

Abstract

Abstract This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of integrating artificial intelligence (AI)-based English learning with students' character development, particularly in narrative text writing. AI tools such as Grammarly, QuillBot, and ProWritingAid are used to support this learning process. The research focuses on analyzing the impact of technology integration on students' academic achievement and character building of responsibility, creativity, and confidence. The study used an experimental design involving two groups, namely experimental and control. The experimental group received AI tools-based learning for six sessions, with each tool being used in turn to improve students' narrative texts. Data was collected through tests to evaluate students' writing skills, questionnaires to measure character development, and observation sheets to monitor students' interactions during learning. Data was analyzed using paired T-test and independent T-test techniques to compare the results between experimental and control groups. The results showed that the use of AI tools had a significant impact on students' character development, especially in the aspects of responsibility, creativity, and self-confidence, based on questionnaire and observation data. However, the impact on academic achievement was not significant within the limited duration of the study. This finding confirms that the integration of AI-based technology can effectively support character learning, although optimization for academic improvement requires time and a more comprehensive strategy. The integration of technology with appropriate pedagogical approaches provides opportunities for holistic language learning.

Abstract

Music serves as a universal medium for conveying moral values and social messages, exemplified by Maher Zain’s song “Palestine Will Be Free.” This study addresses the gap in analyzing the moral and figurative elements of the song, focusing on its contributions to moral education and social awareness. Utilizing a qualitative research design, the study examines the song’s lyrics and integrates insights from secondary sources to identify themes of justice, freedom, optimism, solidarity, and resilience. The analysis reveals that the song employs various figurative language techniques—such as metaphors, similes, and symbolism—to deliver its moral and emotional messages effectively. For example, the metaphor “Your soul will always be free” highlights the unyielding spirit of the Palestinian people despite oppression, while the recurring theme of solidarity fosters a sense of empathy and collective responsibility. The accompanying music video further amplifies the da'wah message, showcasing visuals of patience, faith, and hope in adversity. These findings affirm the song’s dual role as an artistic expression and a platform for moral advocacy, resonating with broader discussions on music’s potential to inspire ethical consciousness and social change. However, the study’s focus on lyrical and figurative analysis limits its scope, as it does not delve into the sociopolitical context or audience reception. Future research should explore these aspects, including cross-cultural interpretations and empirical studies on listener responses, to provide a deeper understanding of the song’s global impact.
