The problem in this study is how the function of directive speech acts in the film "Until Tomorrow" by Evelyn Afnilia. This study aims to describe and analyze the function of directive speech acts in the film "Until Tomorrow" by Evelyn Afnilia.

The data source in this study is all the speech of the Until Tomorrow film players. The research data includes all the speeches of the Until Tomorrow film players, which are included in the function of directive speech acts. Data were collected through listening techniques, note-taking techniques, and documentation techniques. The study's results in the film Until Tomorrow found 38 directive speech acts with seven speech act functions. These findings conclude that the most frequently occurring directive speech acts are commanding directive speech acts, consisting of 14 data points. The commanding function in this film is full of emotional pressure and conflict, such as difficult decisions or urgent responsibilities. In situations like this, characters tend to use commands to assert authority, convey urgency, or regulate actions, rather than a more polite form of asking. The dominance of the “Commanding” function shows how the emotional pressure and conflict in this film push the characters to take direct, decisive action, which is important for building the intensity of the drama in the romantic narrative.

Fantasy Formula in the Story of the Nusantara Webtoon Droid War by Vega Mandalika
Webtoon NDW is a literary work that presents vertical image panels, making it unique from other scholarly works. As a popular fantasy genre work, researchers suspect that there is a formula in the Webtoon NDW story. This study aims to reveal the fantasy formula in the Webtoon Nusantara Droid War (NDW) story by Vega Mandalika. The type of research is qualitative and uses the theoretical basis of the fantasy formula from Deborah Chester (2016), which consists of three elements: story roles, magic, and a special world. Data were obtained from episodes 1 to 50 of Webtoon NDW through data collection with documentation techniques and literature studies. Then, it was analyzed through data condensation, presentation, and conclusion to find patterns in the research object. The study results show that the Webtoon NDW story has three categories of characters, each with its role. The closer a character is to the minor category, the more limited their appearance will be. The story's characters use spells with different functions, such as turning on droids or summoning magical powers. Webtoon NDW presents a special world with wonders not found in other worlds. These three elements are present repeatedly and consistently in the Webtoon NDW story. Thus, some patterns in the NDW story follow the fantasy formula proposed by Deborah Chester. The study results help develop popular literary theory, especially the fantasy formula in Webtoon, and serve as a reference for similar research in the future. This study requires further research to determine the influence and effectiveness of Webtoon NDW in learning literature in the digital era.

Register to Buy and Sell Indonesian SEO Community on Telegram
The rapid development of the internet has given birth to several influential platforms, such as social media. The increasing use of social media triggers the use of a particular community's distinctive language that reflects its culture. This study analyzes the buying and selling registers, functions, norms, and values of the Indonesian SEO Community (KSI). This qualitative research uses research in the form of a selling' feature (chat) sourced from the KS I Telegram group. The data was collected through participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and field notes. The analysis process occurs in the register, morphology, and function analysis stages. Using the theory of the formation of the wordKridalaksana (1992) and Yule (2010), it was found that the KSI register was mainly in the form of basic morphemes or did not undergo the formation process. Other formation processes are abbreviation, the merger of two non-predictive words (phrases), affixation or derivation, compounding (merging), and coinage (combination). Meanwhile, the function of using registers analyzed using the Thurlow & Brown framework (2003) is dominated by SEO terminology. Other registers also function for communication efficiency, persuasiveness, greetings, pronouns, informativeness, and transactions. A significant finding in this study is that instant messaging has a different context of use and pressure than other digital media. This is reflected in checkout registers that function as promotional closures and have lower pressure on buyers than TikTok live broadcasts. In addition, using neutral terms such as agan, colleague, guys, everyone, all, and mbah reflects inclusive and egalitarian community management. Through register analysis from the perspective of Digital Ethnography, the implications of this research can be used by business people to maximize their sales in the digital space.

Ecocritical studies in literature have increasingly developed alongside growing awareness of the relationship between humans and the environment. The novel Mausim al-Hijrah ila al-Syimal by Tayyib Salih, set in Sudan, presents a narrative about human interaction with nature in a postcolonial context. This study aims to analyze the representation of human-environment relationships in the novel using Greg Garrard’s ecocritical approach. The focus of this study includes six key concepts of Greg Garrard’s ecocriticism: pastoral, pollution, wilderness, apocalypse, dwelling, and animals. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method with an ecocritical approach. Data collection techniques include reading, marking, and noting relevant texts. Data analysis follows Miles and Huberman’s framework: data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal two main types of human-environment relationships in the novel. The conflictual relationship is reflected in (1) pollution, symbolizing modernization and its detrimental effects on the environment; (2) wilderness, portraying human struggles and powerlessness against nature’s forces; and (3) apocalypse, depicted through natural disasters like catastrophic floods that disrupt society. Meanwhile, the harmonious relationship is illustrated in (1) pastoral, representing nostalgia for rural life and criticism of modernization; (2) dwelling, highlighting the emotional attachment between humans and their living spaces; and (3) animals, showing their role in daily life as part of the social and ecological system. These findings indicate that Mausim al-Hijrah ila al-Syimal not only critiques environmental exploitation and modernization’s impact but also emphasizes human attachment to nature. This study is expected to expand the understanding of ecocriticism in postcolonial literature and uncover the complexity of human-environment interactions.

Escape and Reconciliation of the Characters in the Short Story 'Tenggelam’ by Neneng Fatimah: A Psychological Analysis
This research analyses the escape and reconciliation of the main character in the short story ‘Tenggelam’ by Neneng Fatimah using Rollo May's existentialist psychology approach and Sigmund Freud's literary psychology. The method used is qualitative with a descriptive approach. Researchers repeatedly read the story to identify mental and emotional dynamics and self-defense mechanisms and resolve the main character's inner conflict. The results showed that the main character's escape involved anxiety, guilt, and a form of love. This escape is realized through self-isolation and rejection of interaction with the surrounding environment, reflecting the character's efforts to deal with inner conflict and search for the meaning of his life. Reconciliation begins to appear when the main character faces the reality of his life with courage and accepts his condition. This reconciliation becomes the peak of emotional transformation, shown through accepting reality and building better relationships with people around her. This research is expected to contribute to the study of literary psychology by highlighting how characters' inner conflicts can be analyzed through a psychological perspective and the relevance of the theme of escape and reconciliation in the context of human life in general. The findings enrich the understanding of the relationship between literature and individual psychological dynamics.

The Acquisition of Word Classes in the Indonesian Language by Students with Hearing Impairments
This study explores the acquisition of word classes among deaf students in special education over one academic year (2023/2024), focusing on developing their language skills. Through the analysis of 668 words categorized according to Harimurti Kridalaksana's theory, the research reveals that nouns dominate (37.4%), followed by verbs (22.4%), adjectives (14.9%), adverbs (11.9%), pronouns (7.5%), conjunctions (4.5%), and prepositions (1.2%). These findings suggest that hard-of-hearing children or deaf students focus on concrete objects and actions, indicating a reliance on tangible language in communication. The lower use of pronouns, conjunctions, and prepositions points to more superficial sentence structures, highlighting the need for explicit naming and connections in their writing. The study underscores the need for educators to adapt their teaching strategies to support language acquisition for deaf students better. It recommends bilingual interventions integrating sign and spoken language, emphasizing visual and contextually relevant instruction. The study also calls for targeted support in teaching verbs and adjectives. It advocates for creating interactive, experiential learning environments that foster emotional support and engagement, which can enhance language mastery and communication skills. Additionally, the research highlights the importance of professional development for educators to address the unique linguistic and cognitive challenges faced by deaf students. Finally, it encourages longitudinal research to investigate linguistic dimensions in their language acquisition further. This study aims to contribute to more effective educational practices that promote optimal language development and social integration for deaf children

Animal Swear Words in Compliments on X: A Pragmatic Study
Few people know that swear words are not always used to express anger. They can also be used to express positive emotions, such as compliments. The phenomenon of using swear words in compliments was found on one social media, X, formerly known as Twitter. This study aims to analyze the pragmatic meanings and pragmatic functions of animal swear words in English compliments on social media X. This study is descriptive research with a qualitative approach. The data were collected by observing the animal swear words-contained tweets on X. The data were analyzed by using the distributional method (the basic technique and either one of the seven extended techniques: deletion, substitution, extension, insertion, reversion, transformation, and repetition) and the identity method by referring to the theories of Hughes (2006), Ljung (2010), Kreidler (2008) , and Spears (2000). The results of the study showed that the word bitch ('female dog'; ’unpleasant woman’) was the only swear word used in compliments. The pragmatic meaning of the swear word is an utterance, meaning 'girl' or ‘guy.’ Meanwhile, the practical functions of the swear word in compliments are as an anaphoric use of epithets and noun supports. This study is expected to reduce misunderstandings among Indonesian EFL (English as a Foreign Language) students when communicating with other English speakers on social media X.
Semiotics of Characters in the Novel Rangsang Tuban by Padmasusastra
This research is motivated by the unique names in the Javanese language that have the meaning of water used by Padmasusastra to name the characters in the novel Rangsang Tuban. The data of this research are the names of the novel’s characters and the sentences in the novel’s text. The names have implied meanings related to water and are connected to the novel’s character, setting, and plot. The data collection technique used is reading and recording to obtain narrative units. This study aims to explain the signs and meanings when naming each character in the novel Rangsang Tuban by Padmasusastra. The theory used in this research is dynamic structuralism, which uses Charles Sanders Peirce’s semiotic approach. Primary data sources were obtained from the novel Rangsang Tuban by Padmasusastra, published in 2013. Secondary data sources are in the form of supporting articles. The concept of semiotics of signs in the form of character names and markers in the form of meaning and data proves the existence of this meaning. The method used is a qualitative description that describes the discussion based on literary works. Based on the semiotic analysis of character naming in the novel Rangsang Tuban, it can be seen: (1) a Description of the meaning of the name that describes the character, (2) a Description of the meaning of the name that shows the setting of the place and the flow of events in the story. The implications of this research contribute to the development of research theory with the concept of Peirce semiotics. They can be an analytical tool for studying modern Javanese literature, including novels.

The Depiction of Man in the Pull of the Times on Arsip Aku di Kedalaman Krisis By Afrizal Malna
Modern humans cannot be separated from digital technology. Interaction patterns in society attached to digital media give rise to various problems in human life in the real world. Its birth and death are uncertain in the digital world. Humans are presented with instability and helplessness. The digital world brings uncertainty to existence. This research aims to reveal human existence in the pseudo-digital world as depicted in the short story Arsip Aku di Kedalaman Krisis by Afrizal Malna. This type of research is qualitative descriptive with the perspective of literary works as social documents, explicitly looking at images of human existence. The results of this research show that (1) human images are always attractive in the real and virtual worlds, and (2) humans lose their definite identity in the world and become dependent on technology. Through this research, it is hoped that it can inform readers that a literary work in the form of a short story contains the values of human life. Literary works as social documents become criticism of the situation in the digital era. On the other hand, it indirectly reminds people that the digital world is risky if it only prioritizes technological sophistication without looking at the risks behind it.

Humor and Wisdom: A Critical Analysis of Binary Oppositionsin Tenas Effendy’s Pantun Kelakar
This study examines the nuanced application of binary oppositions in Tenas Effendy's "Pantun Kelakar," a collection of Malay jesting couplets. Through rigorous qualitative analysis of selected pantuns, we explore how binary opposition functions as a sophisticated literary device to encapsulate complex cultural wisdom and philosophical concepts inherent in the Malay worldview. Our research reveals that Effendy's pantuns ingeniously employ contrasting perspectives to illuminate multifaceted aspects of Malay life, mainly focusing on marital dynamics and societal attitudes towards physical differences and disabilities. The study demonstrates how these pantuns serve not merely as entertainment but as powerful vehicles for cultural expression, moral instruction, and subtle social commentary. By juxtaposing opposing viewpoints on issues such as having a cleft-lipped wife, multiple spouses, a beautiful wife, a mute wife, or a disabled husband, the pantuns encourage critical reflection on societal norms and values. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of Malay literature and culture, showcasing how traditional poetic forms can be analyzed using modern literary theory to yield profound insights into cultural values and philosophical outlooks. Our findings highlight the pantun's vital role in preserving and transmitting cultural wisdom across generations while revealing the sophisticated literary techniques employed in Malay oral traditions.
