Abstract

The findings of the research, discussion and conclusion. The purposes of the research were to identify and to describe the types of hyperbolic expressions used in the song lyrics of famous male singer Bruno Mars. Descriptive method was applied in conducting the research. Ten popular songs sung by Bruno Mars became the focus entitled Grenade, Dancing with the Star, 24K Magic, Just the Way You Are, It Will Rain, Locked Out of Heaven, Versace on the Floor, Nothin’ on You, Lost and Talking to the Moon. The researcher only took those songs which were released from 2010 till the latest as sources of data. The data were collected and analysed by linguistic theory related to hyperboles as proposed by Christodoulidou (2011). The finding shows that there are 87 hyperbolic expressions found in song lyrics of Bruno Mars. There are 38 hyperboles in the song lyrics of Bruno Mars grouped as overstatement and the rest are 19 hyperboles grouped as hyperboles in impossible description. The first type becomes the most frequent hyperbole type used in the song lyrics of Bruno Mars and the second becomes the least. It can be concluded that hyperboles in song lyrics play powerful social functions and allow songwriters to convey complex emotions, create lasting impressions, and craft lyrics that resonate with a wide audience. The use of figurative language serves as an effective means to enhance the words employed in song lyrics.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the differences in the perspectives of the main characters in Wendelin van Draanen's novel Flipped. It uses qualitative methods, in which the results are in the form of words. The researcher collected data sources into two categories: primary and secondary sources. The primary data was collected from the Flipped novel, and the secondary data was collected from articles, journals, e-journals, books, e-books, and other sources. The researcher uses a psychological approach especially Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory (1933) to analyze the differences in perspective between Brice and Juli as adolescents. Freud pointed out that early childhood events influence a big part of our mental lives and occur outside of our conscious knowledge. The researcher identified numerous differences in perspectives that affect Brice and Juli's thoughts and behavior as mentally unstable adolescents. The researcher classified these perspectives based on psychological perspectives; the researcher found psychodynamic, cognitive, and cross-cultural perspectives. The occurrence they experienced had an enormous effect on their life. When Brice was a child, he didn't like July, but as he became an adolescent, he started to appreciate Juli—Bryce flipped as Juli had done previously. Brice understands that Juli's charisma and personality set her apart from the other girls. On the other hand, Juli learned to control her feelings for Brice, and she was no longer as fixated on Brice as she had been as a child. Juli has become more focused on herself and her family as she grows.

Abstract

This study analyzes the word formation processes in the Captain Marvel movie, aiming to identify the types and mechanisms of word formation present in the film. Employing a qualitative research method, data were gathered through repeated viewings of the movie and careful examination of its script. The analysis followed the framework proposed by Miles and Huberman (1994), involving data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed 64 instances of word formation, categorized into six distinct types. These included nine examples of borrowing, 38 instances of compounding, five instances of clipping, two instances of conversion, three instances of acronyms, and five instances of derivation. Among these, compounding emerged as the most frequently used word formation process, with 38 examples identified. This research highlights the diverse linguistic features embedded in the language of Captain Marvel, with a notable emphasis on compounding as a dominant process. The study provides insights into the dynamic use of word formation in cinematic scripts and contributes to a broader understanding of language in media.

Abstract

The purpose of this investigation was to explore the emotional states portrayed in the film Frozen by Jenifer Lee. The scope of this research is specifically limited to examining the personality and feelings of Elsa, who serves as the central figure in the animated movie Frozen. While undertaking the analysis for this academic work, the writer concentrates exclusively on the research questions previously defined. The study gives prominence to Jennifer Lee's leading character, Elsa, with an emphasis on examining her nature and the emotions she undergoes. The selected method for this investigation is qualitative research, due to the fact that the gathered information exists as quotations and explanations. The details analysed in this research were extracted from the film Frozen by Jennifer Lee, which served as the primary material, and were supplemented with supporting information obtained from applicable materials like books, articles, and other resources that cover emotional experiences, functioning as supporting sources. The research identified Elsa's persona as being a powerful and inward-focused individual. This particular persona has a significant influence on the advancement of the plot and the evolution of other figures. Additionally, Elsa tends to respond to issues by steering clear, paying them no mind, and keeping her thoughts and feelings locked up inside, creating difficulties in controlling her emotional state. Subsequently, having established this portrayal, the aim of the author's study is to recognize and thoroughly understand the emotions represented by Elsa's character within the animated movie Frozen. Drawing on the findings, the writer reached the conclusion that the primary emotions that are apparent within her experience are positive emotions such as joy and contentment, as well as negative emotions such as dread, rage, and sorrow. Notably, Elsa's surrounding environment triggers each one of these feelings.
