Task-based teaching and learning is a boon approach in English classes nowadays to create a real practice for language use and provide a natural context for language study. This article exposes the use of task-based approach by incorporating environmental sustainability as content in translation practice. The tasks consist of three phases, pre-task, during-task, and post-task. Each phase is to enrich the student's experience in learning the novel terms along with the strategy for dealing with the difficult terms in the source text. The sample of the study is the students who participated in a translation course program from two universities. The total participants are 42 of 95 students who are available for this course session conducted in May 2022. Before pre-task, the students' preferences were collected to identify the students’ interest and expectations of the heading course. In during-task, students are asked to take notes based on their interests. After the pre-task, students presented their own experiences in completing the task. At the end of the course session, a questionnaire was given to investigate the advantage of the learning approach and students' experience in the translation course. It was observed that students use the target language to communicate with peers in doing assignments. The student's confidence, which is the key to acquiring a language, increased in using specific terms. Combination of task-based learning with appropriate content that is relevant to personal lives such as environmental sustainability increases the student's motivation to learn and benefit from the translation activity.

Logical Function is a function related to the logical relationship between one clause and another, including two aspects, namely interdependency relations and logico-semantic relations. This study demonstrated the clause complexity of the transcript of two different texts with a similar subject matter, news and editorial text from the Jakarta Post Newspaper, such as, logical function, coordination (parataxis) and subordination (hypotaxis). The method of this study highlighted the analysis of qualitative research on the issue of clause complexity based on the perspective of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) in the two different texts. SFL allows the analyst to shed light on interaction with the social context to imbue texts with the meanings expressed. The results of the study show that taxis in logical function analysis of News and Editorial Text apply two taxis, they are parataxis and hypotaxis. Hypotaxis is dominantly used in both text, 85.71% in Editorial and 89.65% in News. The proportion of the dominant hypotaxis in News text was 37.93% and in Editorial 33.33%.

Study habit is key to the success of the learning process. The study habit can be obtained when students have the intention to do so. Generally, the intention arises from repeated actions. In the TUTEP training class, the habits of the students during the training program can determine the test result. Thus, this study aims to examine the effect of study habits among the students or trainees on increasing their TUTEP scores. A descriptive-correlation method was used to describe the positive day-to-day habits that the trainees did to increase their TUTEP scores. The study involved respondents who attended the TUTEP training class and obtained a significant improvement in their TUTEP score before and after participating in the training. The main instrument in this study was the Palsane and Sharma Study Habit Inventory (Looyeh et al., 2017). The instrument has eight sub-scales of study habits. The results indicated that the significant test obtained was a ttest value of 0.738, where the ttest value was greater than ttable (0.738 0.254). In other words, it can be concluded that there is a significant relationship between study habits and increased TUTEP scores of the trainees. Furthermore, based on the highest average value (mean) of study habits which was obtained from respondents, three indicators yielded the highest scores, namely the exam (4.66), the health (4.59), and the time management indicators (4.36).

The present study is an interdisciplinary research that investigates the role of Islamic culture courses in maintaining the Islamic identity among the female students of the English department at King Khalid University. It is due to the significance of these courses that the researchers design this study to explore the extent to which the Islamic culture courses achieve the objectives envisaged by them. This study further explores the ability of these courses to confront the ideas of globalization and the new international order including the world’s economic, political, cultural and social ideologies. The study also investigates the need of such courses to enable the students of the English department to be prepared to study certain courses enrolled at the faculty of languages and translation (i.e. religious translation course). For this end, the students are requested to complete an online survey composed of closed-ended and open-ended questions on their perceptions about the Islamic culture courses and their significance. As such, the study adopts both quantitative and qualitative methods and ends up with suggesting certain recommendations towards improving the courses specifications and implementing the students’ special knowledge of the English language and culture in empowering them to present the disciplined Islamic concept and identity.

This paper investigates two types of loanwords in Indonesian from a list published by NUSA in 1997 and the online version of Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia (KBBI, 2019): those of Sanskrit origin, and of European origins. When languages borrow words from one another, they may employ various strategies in dealing with unfamiliar sounds and/or sound combinations. Overall, the study is conducted by means of descriptive qualitative method, having a focus on corpus research. Specifically, this research is concerned with the handling of syllable-initial consonant clusters that is not present in native Indonesian words. The two different patterns dealing with consonant clusters in loanwords are 1) The tendency for consonant cluster preservation in European loanwords; and 2) The tendency to insert a vowel sound to break up consonant clusters in Sanskrit loanwords. It happens due to the differences in the time frame and scope of Sanskrit and European language influences in Indonesia. The results show that onset consonant clusters have become a definite marker of loanwords in Indonesian
本文研究了1997年由美国国家文物局发布的外来词表和2019年《印尼语Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia》在线版本(KBBI, 2019)中的两类印尼语外来词:源自梵语的外来词和源自欧洲的外来词。当一种语言从另一种语言中借用单词时，它们可能会采用各种策略来处理不熟悉的声音和/或声音组合。总体而言，本研究采用描述定性方法进行，重点是语料库研究。具体来说，这项研究关注的是处理音节-初始辅音集群，这是不存在于母语印尼词。外来词中辅音集群的两种不同处理模式是:1)欧洲外来词中辅音集群保留的趋势;2)在梵语外来词中插入元音以打断辅音簇的趋势。这是由于梵语和欧洲语言对印度尼西亚的影响在时间框架和范围上的差异。结果表明，起音辅音簇已成为印尼语外来词的明确标志

Exploring the cultural pragmatic speech of the Makassar people of various ages and genders is a popular trend in current pragmatic research. However, most of the previous studies have only obtained data from speakers of different genders and ages and have not addressed the cultural influences that influence them. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to fill in the gaps of previous research by showing that the dominant culture greatly influences verbal actions in response to praise from people living in Makassar, children, adolescents and adults. Three instruments are used in this descriptive research: observations, surveys and interviews with 15 adults, 15 youth and 15 children. The results show that Makassar culture influences the proportion of compliments used by Makassar people. 87% of female responses received praise in adulthood, 13% avoid praise, and 82% of female responses receive praise and 18% avoid praise in adolescence. In adulthood, 60% of their responses are praise, 40% avoid praise, 80% of men respond to praise, 20% reject praise, and 100% of boys accept praise.

Jeopardy game is a common game for players to compete for the highest score. Nevertheless, this game can be modified to provide the students with a fun, engaging, and challenging interactive game for learning activities. The use of the Jeopardy game in improving teaching-learning activities was abundant, whereas the use of Jeopardy in vocational high school was little to be found. This study tried to figure out the implementation of Jeopardy games in enhancing reading skills for vocational high school students. Classroom action research was conducted to observe students' improvement in reading after implementing Jeopardy games in reading activities. Closed-ended questionnaires on how the jeopardy games influence the teaching process and activities were conducted to get the quantitative data. Observation, reflection, open-ended questionnaire, and FGD were gathered to strengthen the result of quantitative data. The results showed that students demonstrated better reading comprehension from the diagnostic test, cycle I, and cycle II results; mean score 5.76, 6.48, and 7.28. Students also reported that they got motivated and were likely to read more. To conclude, students stated that they experienced some improvement in cooperative learning and reading strategies. The implication of the study is discussed at the end of this article.

This study aims to explore the types and meanings of figurative language in Taylor Swift’s song lyrics. On the surface level, figurative language cannot be translated literally. The study is descriptive qualitative, and the data are in the forms of figurative language taken from eight selected songs in Taylor Swift's album "Red" collected by documentation technique. The data are then analyzed using content analysis by referring to the framework of Knickerbocker Reninger’s theory (1985) on figurative language. From the analysis, there are 57 types of figurative language in the selected songs, namely hyperbole 31,5%, simile 19,3%, metaphor 17,5%, metonymy 5,3%, irony 3,5%, symbol 7,0%, personification 10,6%, paradox 3,5% and synecdoche 1,8%. Furthermore, the meaning of each figurative language used in the song lyrics is contextually explored and allied with the content of the song lyrics which conveys the various deep expressions of feeling and emotion of Taylor Swift as both a singer and a songwriter.

As far as making errors is unavoidable in speaking class, oral corrective feedback (OCF) plays a crucial role to solve that problem. For the past two decades, OCF has become the debatable issue among researchers. This present study was conducted in one of the English courses in East Java, Indonesia. The participants were one native teacher and one non-native teacher teaching two different classes alternately. The speaking class was for elementary school students. This qualitative study has several aims; 1) to investigate the distribution of OCF types that providing by the teachers in the speaking class, 2) to know whether or not there is an ignorance of the errors by the teachers and the reason behind it, 3) the types of OCF that often used by the teachers. The data was collected through video recording, stimulated recall and semi-structured interview. The results evinced that the teachers provided all the types of OCF to the students with different portions of usage. Recast became the type of OCF that is commonly used by teachers. Furthermore, the teachers corrected almost of the student’s errors. Unfortunately, there several ones that ignored by them. The ignorance of the student’s error due to some reasons such as tiredness and lack of knowledge. Nevertheless, the most prominent reasons were they did not want interrupt the student’s utterances in order to not create the students’ negative feelings about OCF.
