Abstract

Metaphor is often defined as a phrase used in an imaginative way to describe, com-prehend and conceive one thing in terms of something else. (Lakoff and Johnson, 1980) They, in addition, note that language, activity and human thought are con-ceptualized in metaphoric way. Furthermore, the metaphorical concept in thought is developed from several correlated experience. (Lakoff, 1992; Kovesces, 2005) For example, as it is explained by Lakoff, people talk about love in the way of talking about journey. Love is conceived in the way of journey is understood. Two lovers are positioned as two persons who are in traveling. Their relationship is the vehicle to gain their love expectations in the same way as destination in a journey. They use journey to conceptualize love and act of love in that way. When they find several difficulties along the way, it means that they have problems in their relationship.

In this institution, most of subjects studied are religious instruction under Syafi'i School of Thought. The students are adviced to study books under Syafiism only. Apart from Syafiism are not allowed. In teaching moral values, the books used are are Taysir al-Akhlak, Ta'lim Muta'allim, and Ihya 'Ulum al-Deen, These books discuss much about how to behave toward teachers, and therefore the students of dayah respect their teachers excessively. The way to respect teachers are spreading Salam when meeting teachers, talk softly with teachers, kissing teachers' hand after shaking hand, and etc. In case of respecting teachers, the students follow not only what they have studied in the books but they follow what they are looking through the attitude of their teachers in the dayah everyday. Therefore, the relationship between students and teachers in dayah are very close any time and anywhere.

Abstract

To improve the quality of English education in Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam (NAD), the Department of Education of NAD as policymaker has made some efforts, among others, sending some teachers for overseas training and also conducting in-service training in designing English teaching material. One of the results of the projects done by the Department of Education of NAD is an English textbook entitled "English in Context for SMA/MA student year 1", was distributed to some senior high schools in Banda Aceh in 2005. Lately, the textbook hasn't been used effectively. Based on that fact, it is considered necessary to evaluate the textbook in order to know its relevant to curriculum used. The data of this study are the contents of English in Context for SMA/MA students year 1, consist of objectives of the textbook, themes chosen, skills presented, task designed, types of the text, language focus provided, vocabulary, and just for fun sections as well as the physical condition of textbook. After the data were put based on their classifications, they were analyzed qualitatively by finding its relevancy to CBC. The relevant elements of textbook to CBC and the deficient element of the textbook were explained descriptively. The result shows that only small portions of suggested material in CBC are provided in the textbook. The types of listening texts which are relevant to CBC are only recount and report. The genre of the reading texts which are relevant to CBC are recount, report, and news items. Meanwhile, the speaking task types provided in the textbook are dialogue, talks/speeches, plays/role play, discussion, and report. The deficient elements found in the textbook are lack of clarity of the authors' objective, repetition of the tasks designed, lack of variation in some skill's presentation and some irrelevant materials to CBC.

Abstract

This paper is aimed to render an analysis on how the impression of linguistic imperialism of English in the era of globalization would affect Language Teaching of English in Indonesian context. English is known to globally spread very rapidly. Starting from the two major diasporas in 16th and 18th century, now, English is accepted in even more countries through the initiatives which is claimed as a practice of Linguistics Imperialism. Indonesia, unlike other neighboring countries such as Singapore, Malaysia, and the Phillipines, has a very little exposure on English due to never become regulated under the British colonial. Hence, English has never been widely spoken in the Indonesian society. But in contrast, English is taught in Indonesian schools as a compulsory subject in grade 7 of secondary school to University levels and considered very important compared to other subjects in Indonesian education system. This is proven by the fact that English is tested the Indonesian national examination (Minister of National Education, 2007). This paper discusses about both the historic view and present-day view of ELT as a form of Linguisitics Imperialism to be noted and anticipated in the practice of ELT in Indonesia in order to plan for a more benefitting reason. Hopefully, by being aware of these issues and accusations, ELT in Indonesia will advance better in the future.

Abstract

Vocabulary acquisition concerns on how people expand the numbers of words they understand when learning a new language. Knowing words in a second or foreign language is vitally important because the reader will be able to understand the written text well and the speaker will be able to communicate basic ideas through vocabulary even if the person does not understand how to create a grammatically correct sentence. As Madsen argued, "mastering vocabulary is the primary thing that every student should acquire in learning English" (Harold, 1983). Therefore, acquiring a sufficiently large vocabulary is one of the important tasks faced by L2 learners in order to comprehend the written texts in reading as one of the four basic features of language learning.

Abstract

Language shift is a notion on the change in the use of a person's heritage language that results in a loss of that person's ability to use his or her heritage language. Likewise, cultural shift is a change in participating in one's heritage culture that re-sults in a loss of understanding and adherence to one's cultural heritage. In her study, Withers suggests some factors that affect a shift in language and culture: the prestige of the dominant language and the comparatively lesser status of the herit-age language, the lack of societal support for the ethnic group and its heritage lan-guage, the perception of the heritage language as unnecessary by subsequent generations, a decrease of group identification through the heritage language, a low level of acquisition of the heritage language at the time of decreased use of that language, an increased amount of contact with the dominant culture, an increased use of the dominant language instead of the heritage language with children, and attitudes against keeping the heritage language.
