2026-01-26T14:33:24+07:00

This paper is aimed to study for the grammatical strategy of term creation for the components of Lanna's Kalae house by using Functional-Typological Grammar framework. The data for this study were obtained from 71 words found in the text. The results showed that the terms used to describe the components of a traditional Thai Lanna-style house demonstrate a variety of syntactic relationships, with four grammatical word-forming strategies identified: 1) Root word strategy, 2) Verb phrase strategy: found in Serial verbs and Verb predicate, 3) Serial Noun strategy: found in noun-noun and noun-modifier; and 4) Noun phrase strategy: found in noun phrases with noun-predicate verb structure, similar to basic sentences and basic sentences with complex verbs. Each strategy has grammatical and semantic relationships that reflect the thought systems and ways in which Lanna Thai people connect the components of the Lanna's Kalae house with their unique worldview, way of life, beliefs, values, culture, and society.

Strategies in Responses to Questions by Characters Representing Entertainment Industry Figures

2026-01-09T16:12:53+07:00

This article aims to examine the linguistic strategies employed in responses to questions by characters portrayed as entertainment industry figures in media interview contexts. The data were collected from interview dialogues of such characters in television dramas related to the entertainment industry. The findings reveal nine linguistic strategies: mitigation, rejection of the question’s presupposition, provision of additional information, apology, counter-questioning, refusal to answer, expression of doubt or surprise, acceptance of the question’s presupposition, and verbal attack. The selection of these strategies depends on the characters’ communicative intentions. The analysis also reflects the importance of “face” or public image in the entertainment industry. However, as these interviews are situated within entertainment media, the narrative emphasizes emotional expression and character development. Consequently, the linguistic strategies used tend to foreground emotions more than those found in real-life interviews, enabling audiences to better understand the characters and their emotional dimensions.

Folk Music Genes in Hunan Piano Compositions:‎ A Regional Analysis of Characteristics and Contemporary Value

2026-01-08T15:28:36+07:00

This study investigates folk music genes in Hunan piano compositions, focusing on works ‎incorporating minority music elements from the Tujia, Miao, and Dong ethnic groups. Analyzing ‎‎ piano works composed between 1980 and 2020 by five Hunan composers (Xi Qiming, Tan ‎Dun, Wang Jianzhong, Chu Wanghua, and Hu Yuping), this research employs musicological ‎analysis, modal analysis, and cultural interpretation methods. Results reveal distinct regional ‎characteristics: (1) predominant use of Yu mode with raised Shang and Zhi tones (found in 73% ‎of analyzed works), a distinctive feature of Hunan Flower Drum Opera; (2) rhythmic patterns ‎imitating percussion and vocal inflections from local opera traditions; (3) direct melodic ‎borrowing from Hunan folk songs, with "Liuyang River" being the most frequently adapted ‎melody; (4) structural preferences for modified ternary form (67% of works), reflecting folk song ‎verse structures. These findings advance understanding of regional musical identity in Chinese ‎piano composition, provide compositional models for integrating folk elements into Western ‎musical idiom, and document the role of art music in preserving endangered folk traditions.‎

Creativity : The Important Power of Writing

2025-08-08T09:58:52+07:00

This academic article aims to propose a learning management approach to promote creative writing capabilities in learners according to the 21^st century learning skills, which are crucial and serve as the first skill in developing individual potential in order to continue the economic, social, cultural, and national development. This article, therefore, compiles learning management concepts from documents and research related to creative writing. Creative writing is a form of writing that requires creativity as a starting point to develop ideas and produce new, unique, and distinctive writing, or adaptations of existing writing that consist of literary beauty and an appropriate blend of content and form, as well as demonstrating the author's identity. Therefore, learning management requires a creative thinking skill training process for learners. Plsek's five-step creative process approach involves preparation, imagination, development, action, and collaborative revision. This process encourages learners to develop creative thinking by examining existing writing to generate different perspectives or adapt the writing to be different from the original. Then choose a strategy to convey the writing appropriately, aesthetically, and prominently.

The author presents dog characters not merely as ordinary animals but as symbolic representatives of assistance and emotional healing, highlighting their profound impact on human lives.
