Abstract

In Taylor Swift’s speech given at New York University in 2022 for her graduation ceremony, Taylor Swift used several presuppositions in her speech. Of course, presuppositions, as assumptions inherent to the emotional approach, are crucial to determining the feeling and argumentation of the message Taylor Swift conveys to the audience. Through this analysis, the researcher will identify and explain how these presuppositions can build an emotional connection with the audience and at the same time empower the graduates through her presuppositions.

Abstract

This study examines the use of implicature in the script of the movie Togo, focusing on how implied meanings are conveyed through dialogue and contextual cues. Implicature, a concept rooted in pragmatics, plays a crucial role in shaping character interactions, advancing the plot, and enriching the narrative without explicit statements. By analyzing selected scenes from the movie, this research identifies the types of implicature employed, such as conversational and conventional implicatures, and explores their functions in enhancing emotional depth, humor, and thematic resonance. The findings highlight the significance of implicature in cinematic storytelling, demonstrating how it contributes to audience engagement and interpretation. This study not only sheds light on the linguistic strategies used in Togo but also offers insights into the broader application of implicature in film scripts.

Abstract

This study explores implicature in the song "When Time Stood Still", analyzing how implied meanings contribute to the song’s overall interpretation. Using Grice’s Cooperative Principle and its maxims, the research identifies conversational and conventional implicatures present in the lyrics. The study examines how language, context, and poetic devices shape the intended and inferred meanings beyond the literal text. The findings reveal how implicature enhances emotional depth, conveys hidden messages, and engages listeners in meaning-making. This research contributes to the understanding of linguistic pragmatics in song lyrics, highlighting the role of implicature in artistic expression.
