Abstract

Song language functions as a means of expressing emotions, conveying messages, strengthening themes, creating beauty, building atmosphere, motivating listeners, and strengthening cultural ties and community identity. Song lyrics are written works describing experiences, feelings, and stories with explicit and implied content. To find out the construction, researchers analyzed voice notes by Charlie Puth.

There are thirteen songs in the voice note album; analyze all thirteen. Contraction involves joining two free morphemes, where one becomes bound, forming a single morpheme. The constructions analysed are finite constructions and non-finite constructions. The results are that there are 29 finite contractions, and 22 non-finite contractions found.

Abstract

This thesis analyzes the narrative structure of Baz Luhrmann’s 2013 adaptation of The Great Gatsby using A.J. Greimas’ actantial model. The study aims to explore how the roles of actants influence the story’s progression and themes, and how the narrative structure shapes character relationships within the film. Employing a qualitative descriptive method, the research identifies and categorizes the six actants—Subject, Object, Sender, Receiver, Helper, and Opponent—within the movie’s plot. The analysis reveals that Jay Gatsby functions as the Subject in pursuit of Daisy Buchanan, the Object, with the supporting characters embodying various actantial roles that shape the film’s development. The study also applies Greimas’ canonical narrative schema to examine the narrative progression through stages of Manipulation, Competence, Performance, and Sanction. Findings show that the movie’s narrative structure not only follows a classical storytelling model but also reflects deeper socio-cultural themes such as the illusion of the American Dream, class struggle, and identity. Through this approach, the research highlights how structuralist narrative theory enhances the understanding of character dynamics and thematic complexity in cinematic adaptations of literary works.
