Abstract

In literary works, the use of beautiful language is used by the author as efforts to enrich the impression, and expand the imagination of the readers. Sometimes, readers often encounter difficulties in understanding the meaning of those unliteral words. One of the keys to understanding the meaning of words is to understand figurative language. Knowing figurative language can make us able to understand the implicit or explicit meaning of works. In this study, the writers analyze the figurative language used in Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte based on the types according to Siwantoro. The method of this research is descriptive qualitative research. The research's results shows that Bronte uses 71% similes, 11% metaphor, 10% personification, 2% hyperbole, 1.5% synecdoche, 2.5% symbols, and paradox with 1%. Of the 300 figurative languages that have been found, simile is the most widely used in this novel with 8 types of vehicles. Keywords: Semantics, Figurative language, Jane Eyre, Charlotte Bronte
