Taylor Swift's works have been known to have lyrics that are rich in meaning and have hidden figurative meanings, therefore many listeners have difficulty understanding the meaning in the lyrics of her songs and some even interpret them incorrectly. This research is to uncover the hidden figurative meanings in Taylor Swift's "Cruel Summer" lyrics and explore the use of figurative language and emotional expressions to convey deeper meanings. A qualitative descriptive method was used to analyze the song lyrics, with an approach based on Perrine's (1969) theory of figurative language. Data collection is based on observation of the lyrics of the song 'Cruel Summer'. The results of the analysis show that there are 19 figurative data with 7 different types of figurative language: 2 similes (10.53%), 8 metaphors (42.11%), 2 personifications (10.53%), 1 synecdoche (5.26%), 3 symbols (15.79%), 2 hyperboles (10.53%), and 1 irony (5.26%). The dominant figurative language in the lyrics of "Cruel Summer" is a metaphor with the largest percentage (42.11%). Taylor Swift uses metaphors to convey her message directly using other terms with more beautiful language.

Most previous studies have analyzed multicultural values from various countries and school levels, yet not extensively examined the Indonesian textbooks for young learners. To fill this gap, this study conducts a visual semiotic analysis to explore the representation of multicultural values in an Indonesian English textbook for primary school students. Utilizing Barthes' visual semiotic theory, the research examines images from the textbook "My Next Words" focusing on four multicultural value keys: respecting other people’s traditions (ROPT), appreciating other people’s perspectives (AOPP), appreciating other people’s cultural products (AOPCP), and appreciating women’s equal rights (AWER). The first finding shows that appreciating women's equal rights (AWER) is the most frequently represented multicultural value in the textbook while appreciating other people’s cultural products is the least represented. The second finding indicates that the images in the textbook primarily represent universality across cultures (UC), with no portrayal of intercultural interaction (ICI). The study concludes that the textbook has an imbalanced representation of multicultural values. Therefore, textbook authors and teachers must address this imbalance. Textbooks should offer more images that represent balanced multicultural values. Meanwhile, teachers should actively engage in selecting appropriate textbooks, reviewing and evaluating multicultural values and cultural references, and providing feedback to publishers. By comparing similarities and differences from different cultures and countries, learning activities can improve students' multicultural awareness and enhance their intercultural communicative competence (ICC).

This research examines the representation of multicultural values in the 12th-grade high school English textbook "Life Today". In the era of globalization, incorporating cultural values into English Language Teaching (ELT) is very important to foster intercultural understanding and tolerance. This research uses qualitative descriptive methods and critical discourse analysis, focusing on visual and verbal content in textbooks. Visual data was analyzed using Barthes' visual semiotic theory, and verbal data was examined using Halliday's systemic functional linguistics and Cortazzi and Jin's cultural components framework. Findings show that the visual content in textbooks represents multicultural values such as Appreciating Other People's Cultural Products (AOPCP), Appreciating Women’s Equal Rights of Women (AWER), and Appreciating Other People's Perspectives (AOPP), with limited representation of Respecting Other People's Traditions (ROPT). Meanwhile, the multicultural value of verbal content in textbooks shows a bias towards universal culture. This study highlights the importance of balanced cultural content in ELT textbooks to improve students' intercultural communicative competence and suggests further research on strategies for teaching multicultural values.
