This kidney plays a pivotal part in promoting the development of internal imaginative capacities in scholars. Beyond its part in individual growth, children's literature holds significant value in fostering personality and social development among youthful compendiums. The integration of children's literature into schoolteacher medication programs is purposeful, aiming to equip preceptors with the readiness to incorporate these textbooks into their classrooms. also, it seeks to empower preceptors to grease meaningful conversations on the motifs presented in these erudite workshops with scholars, academy administration brigades, and parents likewise. Achieving this requires schoolteacher preceptors to give ample openings for scholars to exercise the chops of opting, assaying, and agitating a different range of children's literature. In doing so, schoolteacher medication programs contribute not only to the professional development of preceptors but also to the broader educational geography by promoting the multifaceted benefits of children's literature in nurturing creativity and fostering holistic development in youthful minds.</p>2024-02-05T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Authorshttps://hmjournals.com/journal/index.php/JLLS/article/view/3791Exploring Language Learning Differences among Students Majoring in English2024-03-06T07:08:11+00:00Earl Jones G.

But only recently research combined empirical and conceptual tool-boxes from these disciplines for the study of deliberative discourse. The aim of this article is to present a discursive analysis of deliberation as a genre using the relational pragmatic analysis of texts. In particular, we want to see whether different features of deliberation genre map onto relational pragmatic dimension of texts. To do so, authors analyze, in the framework of Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST), the relational discourse structure of legal speeches of argumentative micro-texts written by citizens participating in a series of deliberative mini-publics. Results suggest that genre affects the relational to pragmatic analysis of texts and that we could analyze this effect in RST. Finally, we present, to our knowledge, the first annotated corpus-based genre analysis of the relational pragmatic dimension of argumentative micro texts.</p>2024-03-08T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Authorshttps://hmjournals.com/journal/index.php/JLLS/article/view/3829Promoting Cross Cultural Understanding through English Language Education: A Comparative Study in Different Educational Level2024-03-11T07:23:36+00:00Bhagirath Singh Negibhagirathnegi4@gmail.com<p>This study explores the advancement of cross-cultural comprehension via English language education, with a specific focus on a comparative analysis spanning diverse educational levels.

Benunanibenu@ukaw.ac.idNi Made Suryatimd_suryati@unud.ac.idI Wayan Simpenwyn_simpen@unud.ac.idMauli Denilmaulidenil@gmail.com<p>Billboard advertisements for legislative and senatorial campaigns are integral to the cityscape leading to the general elections, reflecting local political dynamics. This study examines the linguistic landscape in billboard advertisements for legislative and senator campaigns heading for the general election in Indonesia. A qualitative method was employed, gathering data from billboard advertisements across various city areas. Analysis was conducted on the language usage, stylistic features, word choice, sentence structure, and visual representations in these billboard advertisements. Findings indicate a variation in language usage, with standard Indonesian predominating but also a presence of local language mixtures. Stylistic features range from persuasive to informative, while word choice tends toward positively connotated terms. Sentence structures tend to be simple and direct, while visual representations emphasize the candidates and symbols reflecting political aspirations. These results depict candidates' complex communication strategies influencing voter opinions and attitudes. A profound understanding of this linguistic landscape is crucial for political observers and candidates to comprehend local political campaign dynamics and effective communication strategies. This study added a new dimension to understanding how political communication is manifested in public spaces. By focusing on billboards as an outdoor media, which often serves as a daily backdrop for many people, this study explores how language can effectively capture voters' attention and influence their political attitudes. Thus, this study is expected to significantly enrich the understanding of political linguistics and communication strategies in the context of election campaigns.</p>2024-03-29T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Authors
