A general feature observed in foreign language classroom is the usage of communication strategies by the learners in their attempts to manipulate a limited linguistics system to communicate. This research aims to investigate the usage of similar sounding words as a written communication strategy in learning Mandarin. The respondents were 59 second- and third-year Malaysian students learning Mandarin as a foreign language at a public university. An open-ended questionnaire was set to gauge respondents’ perception on the strategies used, and was divided into four parts, namely the demographic data and 3 parts of written tasks. The respondents were required to write a dialogue, answer questions on their hobbies and construct sentences using the words given. A total of 77 data of similar sounding words were found. The results showed that similar sounding words strategy was mostly applied to retroflex, alveolar, affricate, fricative, plosive, aspirated and unaspirated sounds. Another one third of the data consisted of syllables which were formed based on the learners’ understanding of the pronunciation. It was found that the strategy provides constructive help in getting the message across despite the inaccurate pronunciation. The findings also mirror the constructive learning attitude and aggressive struggle put in by the learners, and therefore, a positive strategy that should be encouraged.

Iklan komersial adalah satu bentuk pembujukan dalam usaha mempengaruhi khalayak sasaran tentang pandangan atau keputusan membeli. Iklan produk kecantikan wanita merupakan salah satu daripadanya. Analisis dilakukan pada iklan dua jenama terkenal, iaitu D’HERBS dan Vida Beauty dengan fokus analisis pada kata kerja yang digunakan dalam slogan dan keterangan produk kecantikan muka. Kajian ini bertitik tolak daripada kajian yang telah dilakukan oleh Leech (1966) tentang kata kerja yang lazim digunakan dalam iklan. Kajian ini mempunyai dua objektif, iaitu mengenal pasti kata kerja yang lazim digunakan dan menganalisis hubungan leksikal yang wujud pada kata kerja yang lazim digunakan. Terdapat empat metod yang diaplikasi, iaitu kajian pustaka, syot layar, analisis frekuensi dan analisis teks. Dapatan kajian ini memperlihatkan antara kata kerja yang lazim digunakan dalam iklan kecantikan muka adalah “mencerah/mencerahkan”, “merawat”, “membantu” dan “melembap/melembapkan”. Hubungan leksikal yang terbentuk daripada kekerapan kata kerja yang digunakan membentuk lapan kelompok sinonimi dan tiga kelompok antonimi. Kesimpulannya, pengiklan memilih kata yang tepat dalam mempengaruhi khalayak sasaran dan bermakna positif sebagaimana yang dinyatakan oleh Leech (1966) dan Dyer (1982).

This study investigated the effectiveness of the English programme for year one students, at Baish Community College (Males, BCCM), Jazan Community Colleges (Males, JCCM and Females, JCCF), College of Engineering (Males), and College of Design and Architecture (Females). Research tools were a programme evaluation form and two short placement tests. This study focused heavily on the students’ progress of learning English. Two placement tests were used: one at the beginning of the semester, and the other on the second half of the semester with a two-month gap. The average of all groups on the first placement test was 18.5 out of 50. ANOVA analysis showed no significant differences between groups averages at p < 0.05 (p-value was 0.26). The level at the start is similar to all groups (homogeneous students). The second placement test showed a slight learning progress. The average of all groups was 21 out of 50, but with a high variation in percentages of gain amongst groups. Therefore, the second ANOVA analysis was conducted to examine the significance of the groups’ averages at p < 0.05. The analysis yielded a p-value of 0.0079. A third analysis was conducted on both tests to ensure further validity of the results; t-test for paired samples was used. All groups were positive except for Jazan Girls Community College which showed no progress at all.

Kesantunan penulisan merujuk kepada kehalusan ketika menggunakan bahasa yang melibatkan penggunaan dan pemilihan kata, frasa, ayat dan ungkapan dalam penulisan. Aspek yang perlu diberi perhatian dalam kesantunan penulisan ialah penggunaan kata panggilan yang betul, pengaplikasian kata sapaan yang betul, gaya bahasa yang indah serta pemilihan kata dan ayat yang sesuai dengan konteks. Sementara topik dan isinya pula tidak menyentuh isu sensitif. Sehubungan itu, kajian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis strategi kesantunan penulisan dalam artikel Ruangan Agenda Bahasa dalam majalah Dewan Bahasa terbitan Julai 2018. Kajian ini mengaplikasikan tiga model kesantunan, iaitu PS Leech (1983), PK Grice 91975) dan model Asmah Omar (2000). Kajian ini merupakan kajian kualitatif sepenuhnya dengan memberikan fokus kepada analisis teks. Dapatan menunjukkan pengaplikasian ketiga-tiga model kesantunan, iaitu PS Leech, PK Grice dan kesantunan Asmah Omar yang membentuk pola kombinasi maksim + strategi. AR1 memperlihatkan pematuhan terhadap maksim Kebijaksanaan + Sokongan + Kualiti + Relevan + Kepatuhan pada Tajuk + Penjagaan Air Muka manakala AR2 pula mematuhi maksim Kebijaksanaan + Sokongan + Kualiti + Cara + Kepatuhan pada Tajuk + Penjagaan Air Muka. Dapatan ini merefleksikan bahawa kedua-dua penulis dalam ruangan agenda bahasa mematuhi peraturan penulisan dengan tidak mengabaikan aspek kesantunan berbahasa. Kesimpulannya, pematuhan penulis artikel terhadap aspek kesantunan penulisan memanifestasikan penulis dalam bidang akademik tidak meminggirkan inisiatif untuk melestarikan budaya santun.

Ujaran saling memahami merupakan hubungan dua hala antara penutur dengan pendengar yang memperlihatkan ujaran penutur dalam menyatakan sesuatu dapat difahami oleh pendengar walaupun ujaran tersebut mengandungi pelbagai bentuk bahasa. Dalam penyelidikan ini, objektif yang terdapat penyelidikan ini ialah menganalisis ujaran saling memahami menggunakan pendekatan pragmatik. Data penyelidikan diperoleh daripada empat buah filem Melayu klasik, iaitu filem Semerah Padi (1956), filem Hang Jebat (1961), filem Seri Mersing (1961) dan filem Lancang Kuning (1962). Hasil penyelidikan ini mendapati, untuk mewujudkan hubungan saling memahami unsur lakuan bahasa dan bentuk bahasa berperanan dalam membantu pendengar memahami ujaran penutur. Bahasa yang melatari sesuatu ujaran dapat diinterpretasi makna sebenarnya berdasarkan kognitif seseorang, faktor lakuan bahasa dan pengetahuan ilmu yang maksimum. Penggunaan teori pragmatik dalam penyelidikan ini ialah Teori Relevans (Sperber & Wilson, 1986) dan Teori Lakuan Bahasa (Searle, 1969) dilihat amat berwibawa dalam merungkai makna hajat komunikatif penutur, diinterpretasi dan difahami oleh pendengar dan seterusnya mewujudkan hubungan saling memahami.

Perceived as one fundamental element in language learning, grammar is reckoned important in ESL writing. ESL learners need to master the knowledge of how to transfer grammatical concepts into their ESL composition. However, Malaysian learners of English often repeat errors in writing which they cannot even recognize. The current study draws attention to the occurrences of language errors and examines their sources in Malaysian ESL learners’ writing. 40 students in their Semester 2 of diploma level were selected to participate in the study. Each student was to produce two essays of 100-word length. Each essay was first examined before language errors were identified and coded based on the parts of speech: Nouns, Verbs, Adjectives, Adverbs, Articles, Pronouns, Prepositions, Adverbs, Conjunctions and Determiners. For each type of errors, the sources were categorized based on interlingual and intralingual sources. 258 errors were identified with the most frequent language errors produced were verb errors while the least were determiner errors. The result revealed that the most dominant errors were caused by intralingual sources. This study would greatly help teachers to establish better curriculum and select materials to facilitate students in learning English and develop them as proficient learners who can self-correct language errors.

Kajian ini bertujuan untuk membina sebuah modul yang berkesan bagi mengatasi masalah miskonsepsi dalam pembelajaran ‘adad dan ma‘dūd. Kajian terdahulu menunjukkan pelajar sering terdedah kepada miskonsepsi dalam menguasai ‘adad dan ma‘dūd Arab. Hal ini kerana sistem pembahagian, konsep dan jenis ‘adad serta ma‘dūd dalam tatabahasa Arab yang berbeza dengan konsep yang digunapakai dalam bahasa asal pelajar. Hasil dapatan kajian terdahulu mendapati al-Quran mempunyai sumber yang mencukupi bagi membina sebuah modul pembelajaran berkaitan tajuk ini. Manakala pendekatan ADDEI didapati sangat membantu dalam membina sebuah modul pembelajaran. Melalui fasa-fasa yang dicadangkan, maka modul ini dibina dengan membahagikan ‘adad kepada tiga kelompok sahaja berdasarkan kepada persamaan ciri dalam setiap kelompok berkenaan iaitu ‘adad sama, ‘adad berlawanan dan ‘adad neutral. Pembahagian ini dilakukan untuk mengurangkan masalah kekeliruan dalam kalangan golongan sasaran seterusnya menangani permasalahan miskonsepsi yang diketengahkan. Melalui pendekatan ini diharap masalah miskonsepsi berkaitan tajuk ini dapat diatasi.
本研究旨在建立一个模块，以克服“阿达德和马”学习中的错误概念问题。先前的研究表明，学生们经常会对“阿达德”和“马”的阿拉伯规则产生误解。这是因为阿拉伯语中“adad and ma’dúd”的划分系统、概念和类型与学生原始语言中使用的概念不同。先前的研究结果发现，《古兰经》有足够的资源来构建与该标题相关的学习模块。而ADDEI的方法被发现在构建学习模块方面非常有帮助。通过所提出的阶段，该模块是通过根据每组属性的相似性将“加法”仅分为三组来构建的，即“加法”、相反加法和“中性加法”。本节旨在减少下一个目标群体之间的混淆问题，以处理在中间的误解问题。希望通过这种方法可以克服对这个标题的误解。

Learning strategies are ways employed by learners to enhance their learning. An active use of language learning strategies helps learners in control of their own learning by developing language skills, increasing confidence, and motivation in learning process. This study aims to investigate the dominant language learning strategies used by science students. It focused on listening, speaking, reading, and writing strategies that was studied using descriptive qualitative method. The subjects of this study were 56 eleventh-grade science students from the senior high boarding school of Darul Ikhsan. The questionnaire developed by Rubin and Thompson (1994) was distributed and the data was analyzed by looking at the highest frequency of students’ choice. The results indicated that the students employed cognitive strategies, metacognitive strategies, affective strategies, compensation strategies, and social strategies. However, the students used dominantly cognitive learning strategies across the four language skills. The findings recommended that students should be trained to use learning strategies properly. In addition, English teachers should consider the learners’ strategies by asking their intentions and use appropriate teaching methods.

Maksim Perbualan (MP) diusulkan oleh Grice (1975) dalam usaha mengurangkan salah faham dalam komunikasi. MP mempunyai empat maksim, iaitu kualiti, kuantiti, hubungan dan cara. Diyakini sekiranya kesemua pemeran mematuhi MP, komunikasi akan berlangsung dengan lancar. Walau bagaimanapun, realitinya, tidak kesemua MP akan dipatuhi. Analisis telah dilakukan pada struktur isi rancangan Soal Jawab TV3 dengan mengaplikasikan MP dan membincangkan faktor kepatuhan dan ketidakpatuhan MP. Antara metod yang diaplikasikan adalah muat turun, transkripsi dan analisis teks. Pemeran komunikasi dalam rancangan ini melibatkan dua orang moderator (M) dan dua orang pemerhati ekonomi (PE). Dapatan analisis memperlihatkan keempat-empat MP dipatuhi oleh M manakala PE tidak patuh pada MP kuantiti dan cara. Kepatuhan MP oleh M dipengaruhi antaranya oleh prosedur penerbitan, kemahiran berbahasa dan pengalaman kerja. Kepatuhan MP oleh PE bertitik tolak daripada sifat rancangan yang yang mempunyai rujukan, iaitu maksim kualiti; manakala maksim hubungan ditandai dengan penggunaan kosa kata seperti inflasi, GST dan BRIM, iaitu tema ekonomi. Ketidakpatuhan MP oleh PE ialah pelanggaran maksim kuantiti dan cara yang bertujuan pemahaman audiens. Walaupun ketidakpatuhan berlaku, kelancaran komunikasi tidak terjejas. Dapatan ini sekali gus menolak pendapat Finch (2000).

Dapatan analisis memperlihatkan keempat-empat MP dipatuhi oleh M manakala PE tidak patuh pada MP kuantiti dan cara. Kepatuhan MP oleh M dipengaruhi antaranya oleh prosedur penerbitan, kemahiran berbahasa dan pengalaman kerja. Kepatuhan MP oleh PE bertitik tolak daripada sifat rancangan yang yang mempunyai rujukan, iaitu maksim kualiti; manakala maksim hubungan ditandai dengan penggunaan kosa kata seperti inflasi, GST dan BRIM, iaitu tema ekonomi. Ketidakpatuhan MP oleh PE ialah pelanggaran maksim kuantiti dan cara yang bertujuan pemahaman audiens. Walaupun ketidakpatuhan berlaku, kelancaran komunikasi tidak terjejas. Dapatan ini sekali gus menolak pendapat Finch (2000).","PeriodicalId":36177,"journal":{"name":"Issues in Language Studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44768525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
