{"title":"Type and Linguistic Form of Register Used for Online Buying and Selling on Shopee Live","authors":"Kharisma Atika Kirani, Anam Sutopo","doi":"10.30605/25409190.840","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.30605/25409190.840","url":null,"abstract":"Language variation in specific social settings, known as register, is a vital area of sociolinguistics that reflects the dynamic nature of communication. This study investigates the types of registers and their linguistic forms used in Shopee Live, a real-time e-commerce platform that enables direct interaction between sellers and buyers. Unlike previous studies that focused on static online platforms, this research explores the spontaneous and interactive nature of live streaming commerce. A descriptive qualitative method was employed to analyze the utterances from four skincare online shops during Shopee Live sessions. The data were collected through observation, transcription, and interviews, and validated using source and technique triangulation. The analysis applied Martin Joos’s theory of register types and Halliday’s theory of situational context. The findings reveal two types of register used: consultative (17 data) and casual (19 data), with the casual register being more dominant. Consultative registers typically appeared in semi-formal buyer-seller exchanges and used nouns and verbs to deliver product information professionally. Casual registers were characterized by informal expressions, simple noun phrases, and emotional or persuasive language aimed at engaging viewers. The dominance of the casual register reflects the sellers' strategy to build closeness with buyers while maintaining informative content through the consultative register. This study highlights how sellers adjust their linguistic choices to suit the communicative needs of the Shopee Live environment, balancing professionalism and friendliness to optimize buyer engagement.","PeriodicalId":52818,"journal":{"name":"Ethical Lingua Journal of Language Teaching and Literature","volume":"12 2","pages":"351-359"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ethicallingua.org/25409190/article/download/840/424","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147912625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both literature and film provide valuable insights into personal psychology and societal challenges. Erikson's stages—Identity vs. Role Confusion, Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt, Initiative vs. Guilt, and Trust vs. Mistrust—are well illustrated in Enola's character development. Using qualitative descriptive methods, this study examines conversations and scenarios that highlight Enola's growth and independence, influenced by her relationship with her mother and the social norms of Victorian England. The analysis demonstrates how Erikson's psychosocial theory, which sheds light on identity development within a patriarchal cultural context, aligns with Enola's journey of self-discovery and resilience. The findings reveal that Enola's journey is marked by a strong sense of independence, exploration of identity, and resistance to societal expectations, underscoring the principles that individuals hold dear. This analysis, grounded in Erik Erikson's theory, provides insights into individual development as it relates to the character of Enola Holmes in the film.","PeriodicalId":52818,"journal":{"name":"Ethical Lingua Journal of Language Teaching and Literature","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ethicallingua.org/25409190/article/download/801/397","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147890401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Understanding policy and practice of peripheral journal publishing in Indonesian higher education context","authors":"Muhammad Affan Ramadhana","doi":"10.30605/25409190.299","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.30605/25409190.299","url":null,"abstract":"In a 2014 paper, Salager-Meyer defined two main categories of academic journals, center and peripheral. Peripheral journals are mostly written in the national language of where the journals are located, although some of them start using English as a secondary language (Salager-Meyer, 2014). On the other hand, center journals - in some cases referred to as prestigious international journals - are written in English as the default communication among established scholars. It has been a common fact nowadays that to gain tenure or promotion, scholars in many parts of the world have to publish their research in a so-called higher-ranking/center journals, even if they are from the ‘periphery’ of the academic community. Given the pressure situation to publish in those center journals, some scholars are even more familiar with the structure and organization of a research paper in English rather than their own local languages (Bocanegra-Valle, 2014). \u0000However, not every scholar is able to publish in higher-ranking/center journals. Some of them are novice scholars who have never written journal articles before. Therefore, they need to publish in lower-ranking journals with their own local languages. Some scholars may also prefer to publish in English and to be reviewed by international referees. The suitable journals for that might be ‘international’ in certain senses, but essentially, they are published by national institutions. For novice or beginner scholars, it might be a good first step toward publishing in more prestigious journals. Those journals have an important role for early stage researchers who need to practice their academic writing (Kulczycki, Rozkosz, & Drabek, 2019). \u0000That situation transformed many long-established peripheral journals, including those published by Indonesian universities, towards internationalization in many aspects. For journals from non-English-speaking countries, internationalization means publishing articles in English by local scholars, encouraging authors from foreign countries to publish in local journals, and reviewing articles by international scholars (Kulczycki, Rozkosz, & Drabek, 2019). \u0000Regarding the main language in those journals, some authors positively perceived the use of English for research publication purposes, yet, there still exists some resistance to the hegemony of English (Bocanegra-Valle, 2014). Therefore, instead of full transformation into English, Salager-Meyer (2014) suggested a multilingual publishing model of national peripheral journals by presenting English abstracts and keywords for every article published. This model would still allow the international scientific community to be aware of worthwhile peripheral insights and research results yet does not throw the national language away. \u0000However, national peripheral journals are frequently perceived as having a low-level quality. One of the key problems of local journals is that their readership is very small and hardly ever transcends n","PeriodicalId":52818,"journal":{"name":"Ethical Lingua Journal of Language Teaching and Literature","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46890989","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}
