In the context of speech, Balinese sentence structures warrant examination. Three fundamental sentence structures in Balinese require study: declarative sentences, interrogative sentences, and imperative sentences. Declarative sentences are those that convey statements and expressions of feeling. Interrogative sentences are those designed to elicit a response in the form of an answer. Imperative sentences are those designed to elicit a response in the form of an action or deed.</p> I Made Suweta Komang Puteri Yadnya Diari Putu Wulandari Tristananda Copyright (c) 2025 International journal of linguistics, literature and culture http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2026-10-15 2026-10-15 12 6 69 78 10.21744/ijllc.v12n6.2625 https://sloap.org/journals/index.php/ijllc/article/view/2627 <p>The dispersion of the African diaspora has engendered a dissonance among the various African diasporas, so much so that creating a collective memory becomes a conundrum. This paper offers an insightful analysis of the memory lag between continental and diaspora Africans regarding the collective memory of slavery. It emphasizes the politics and processes of blackwashing and whitewashing that have led to a difference in the sentimental attachments to the historical injury of slavery. Drawing on Woodard’s Slave Site on Display and Achille Mbembé’s “African Modes of Self-Writing” as theoretical works and Morrison’s Paradise and Caryl Phillips’s Crossing the River as fictions, the essay analyzes the nuanced ways historical traumas are remembered and experienced differently across geographical and cultural lines, particularly within the context of the African diaspora.</p> Sy Ousseynou Copyright (c) 2025 International journal of linguistics, literature and culture http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2026-10-21 2026-10-21 12 6 79 88 10.21744/ijllc.v12n6.2627 https://sloap.org/journals/index.php/ijllc/article/view/2615 <p>Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Deep Network (DN) enable natural language processing (NLP) has empowered Automated short Answer Grading (ASAG) models. Products are now more versatile across domain independent applications. The user however still sees them as operational black boxes and where specific fine tuning is not possible. Results, evaluated and compared over several standard metrics brings out the performance measures in clearly fathomable units. The word empowers technologically uninitiated users, mostly in evaluation to make an educated choice of the technical best suited for ASAG of a specific context based on pre-existing indicators like language ability and native language.</p> Sampa Das Copyright (c) 2025 International journal of linguistics, literature and culture http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2026-08-01 2026-08-01 12 6
