Abstract

Taylor Swift is a famous singer-songwriter, and her songs are enjoyed by people worldwide. One of her well-known works is a studio album called Reputation. This album is composed of many metaphors as figurative language, which is sometimes hard to understand. However, to run the communication well, listeners have to understand the message the songwriter wants through this album. Due to this importance, the researchers studied the Metaphorical Meaning of Taylor Swift’s Reputation Album study. This study aims to examine the meaning of the metaphorical phrases in the album based on Leech’s metaphoric rule and Yule’s meaning theory. The data were analyzed by the qualitative method along with a questionnaire, as a part of the quantitative approach to support data validation, mainly filled by Taylor Swift fans and people who often listened to her songs. The research findings show that all denotative meanings are like the connotative ones in the sense of semantic properties, which are abstract and build patterns. The findings are expected to make listeners better know and understand the metaphors and their meanings in the Reputation Album.

Previous studies have discussed the quality of the translation produced by Google Translate which will be more acceptable and more accurate at the sentence level, but not at the verse or lyrics level with the use of words that mostly use figures of speech so that it will greatly affect the results of the translation produced by Google Translate. The data source in this study is the sort movie taken from YouTube channel produced by Ucup Klaten, while for this research data is the script in the Javanese conversation on the short movie. In translating the text, the important thing is the process to maintain the equivalence between source text to the target text. Translation methods that emphasize more on external factors can be used to overcome this problem, but this can lead to other problems, one of which is the equivalence of meaning.
