However, not many information exists on whether this so-called extramural English gaming activity has implications on students' pragmatic competence. To answer that, this study aims to explore the effect of extramural gaming activity toward students’ pragmatic competence. The research was done by employing a task called the Multiple-Choice Discourse Completion Task (MCDCT) on 60 second-grade students interested in extramural gaming activity (male = 26, female = 34) in Luwuk, Indonesia. Students were divided into two groups, 30 gamer students and 30 non-gamer students. The students were instructed to answer several real-world communicative situations given in the MCDCT task. The data analyzed using statistical descriptive methods. The results of the study revealed that students who frequently played online games (M=3.523) were slightly better at doing the MCDCT than non-gamer students (M=3.220). Thus, it concluded that extramural gaming activity positively affected students' pragmatic competence.</p> Muh Ilham Dirwan Ni Wayan Surtini Muhammad Zulfadhli Copyright (c) 2025 Muh Ilham Dirwan, Ni Wayan Sartini, Muhammad Zulfadhli https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2025-01-16 2025-01-16 7 1 1 20 10.18326/jopr.v7i1.1-20 https://ejournal.uinsalatiga.ac.id/index.php/jopr/article/view/3619 <p><em>This research investigates the references which are realised by signs within the Masako package. The scope of this research is language in function which is presented in verbal and non-verbal languages. The theory used for this research is the theory of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) and it is supported with theory of semiotic for non-verbal language. The research implies qualitative research, phenomenology. The data were taken from Masako package. The verbal language such as clauses are analysed with theory of SFL proposed by Halliday, while nonverbal language such as; colours, pictures, photos are analysed with semiotic proposed by Peirce. The result of the research indicates that the package of Massako hires nonverbal and verbal languages. The yellow colour indicates that Masako is very suitable for cooked food. The red colour indicates that the spice contains chilly, it is not good for baby food. The green colour indicates that the spice is very good with fresh meat and vegetable. The ideologies of Masako are; (i) the company of Masako wants to share the market with some segmentation by providing several taste and different weight in the packages, (ii) the company want to dominate the market by showing “Halal” so most of Indonesian communities are not in doubt about the material. This research has significances for semiotic, discourse analysis, and language teaching. This research is expected to be very useful for communities and to be able to stimulate other researchers to do similar research. </em></p> Nancy Natalia Dharmawan I Ketut Suardana Yoga Putra Semadi Copyright (c) 2025 Nancy Natalia Dharmawan, I Ketut Suardana, Yoga Putra Semadi https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2025-02-17 2025-02-17 7 1
