Abstract

Humor is widely recognized as an effective method for promoting language acquisition and enhancing language skills. Using humor in language training can help students feel more at ease, reduce tension, and encourage good emotions, all of which have a favorable effect on their motivation and engagement. In language-learning environments, linguistic jokes are one sort of humor that has not been well investigated. This study uses descriptive qualitative methodologies to investigate the advantages of linguistic jokes in the English as a foreign language (EFL) classroom. Data were gathered for the study from interviews, focus groups, and classroom observations involving EFL students. The results show that language learners gain from using linguistic jokes in EFL classes in several ways, including greater motivation, increased engagement, improved communication skills, and decreased anxiety. The study also emphasizes how humour can improve the learning environment by encouraging greater participation and a sense of belonging among students. The qualitative data show that learners have good attitudes toward using humour in language acquisition, which lends credence to these findings. The study proposes that EFL teachers utilize humour as a teaching method to facilitate language learning and develop language skills. It also finds that including linguistic jokes in EFL classrooms can benefit language learners in various ways.

Abstract

It is important to have knowledge of the language to make no mistakes occur in the language. Although previous studies have discussed linguistics and advertising, it is still very rare, and almost very few have discussed the morphology and syntax of hotel billboards in detail. Therefore, to fill this void, this study aimed to examine the morphological and syntactical analysis of advertising billboards used by hotels in Banjar masin. This study used descriptive qualitative research as its methodology. The billboards from various hotels in Banjarmasin served as the study's objects and location. The researcher specifically selected the images from the billboard advertisements that were captured. Then, the data were gathered through making observations and documentation. The findings discovered in the morphology section that numerous hotel advertisements had issues adding suffixes, which were lack of suffix-ly, suffix-s/es for verbs, and suffix-s/es for nouns. Furthermore, the phrase or sentence from the existing hotel billboard has a structural flaw in the syntactic part which is difficult to distinguish with morphology elements. . This study is intended to assist lecturers in the teaching-learning process in terms of morphology and syntax. It is expected that this study would be useful to future researchers conducting pertinent literature.
