Abstract

This study explores the types and functions of speech acts employed by characters in Poor Things (2023), a film rich in philosophical, emotional, and ideological discourse. Drawing upon Yule’s classification of speech acts; declarative, representative, expressive, directive, and commissive, this research applies a descriptive qualitative approach to analyze 242 selected utterances from the movie’s script. The data were collected through careful viewing, transcription, and contextual interpretation of the dialogues. Findings reveal that representative speech acts dominate the film, indicating characters' tendencies to express beliefs and shape perceptions. Expressive and directive acts also occur frequently, reflecting the emotional depth and interpersonal influence present in the narrative. Notably, declarative acts, though rare, serve pivotal roles in reshaping social realities and character relationships. These patterns underscore how speech act theory can illuminate character development and thematic construction in cinematic dialogue. This study contributes to the field of pragmatics and film discourse analysis by demonstrating how language functions not merely as communication, but as a tool of agency, identity formation, and narrative progression in contemporary cinema.

Abstract

This study delves into the hidden meanings in the lyrics of Story of My Life by One Direction, utilizing Ferdinand de Saussure’s semiotic framework, specifically the concepts of signifier and signified. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, the research examines the song’s lyrics as the primary data, complemented by secondary data from scholarly sources to provide additional insights. The analysis reveals themes of emotional vulnerability, resilience, and memory, articulated through symbolic and metaphorical expressions in the lyrics. Key findings highlight the interplay between individual emotions and universal human experiences, such as love, loss, and perseverance, making the song relatable to a broad audience. The study demonstrates how the lyrics transcend mere entertainment, offering profound reflections on personal and cultural narratives. By applying semiotics, this research underscores the significance of song lyrics as a form of literary and cultural expression. It also paves the way for future studies to explore similar frameworks in analyzing music and its impact on audiences.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the costumes that the main character wears in the movie ‘Enola Holmes’ by using Charles Sanders (CS) Peirce’s theory. The data in this study was collected by watching the movies several times and taking notes on the costumes worn by Enola Holmes, the main character in this movie. The data analysis was done by identifying the signs in the costumes and interpreting their meanings based on CS Peirce’s semiotic theory, which divides signs into icons, indexes, and symbols. The result of this study shows that Enola Holmes’ costumes function as icons, indexes, and symbols. As icons, the costumes directly represent the Victorian era and Enola’s various disguises. As indexes, the costumes reflect Enola’s actions, emotions, and experiences. Furthermore, as symbols, the costumes convey meanings related to gender roles, courage, independence, and family heritage. This study helps in gaining an understanding of how film costumes can be used to communicate storylines and to develop characters.

The data analysis was conducted in three stages: classification, display, and verification. The result of this research shows that the poem employs various phrases, which can be categorized as icons, indexes, and symbols. The signs function to surpass linguistic barriers and convey significant insights about the human spirit and its connection to the natural world. These can also serve as a reminder that even the most basic words, when skillfully composed and infused with symbolic significance, can have a lasting effect on readers, encouraging them to delve into their feelings and establish a stronger bond with the world.
