Abstract

This descriptive qualitative research aimed to investigate the types of adverbial clauses in the movie "Alice in Wonderland". The study focused on the dialogue and subtitles of the film. The researchers selected utterances containing adverbial clauses as the primary data source. Data collection employed an observational method with a non-participatory technique. The analysis utilized a clause-identifying method and a differentiating comparative technique. The theoretical framework applied was Huddleston and Pullum's (2002) typology of adverbial clauses. The results revealed that adverbial clauses were frequently used in the film's dialogue to add context and complexity to the narrative. From 49 identified instances of adverbial clauses, 31 were categorized as conditional, 9 as time, 2 as comparison and 7 as causal. Conditional clauses emerged as the most common type of adverbial clause used. The characters primarily used these clauses to express hypothetical situations, temporal relationships, and cause-effect connections in a way that enhanced the fantastical and whimsical nature of the story.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the types of directive speech acts found in the movie Thunderbolt. This descriptive qualitative research focuses on the utterances produced by characters in the film, with direct speech acts serving as the main data source. Data were collected through an observational method using a non-participatory technique. The data analysis applied Sudaryanto’s (2015) method of identifying language elements, while the theoretical framework was based on Searle’s (1979) classification of directive speech acts. The findings show that the characters frequently employed directive speech acts to influence others’ actions. Out of 57 identified utterances, 20 were categorized as asking, 15 as requesting, 5 as ordering, 5 as commanding, 5 as giving advice, 5 as begging, and 2 as inviting. The most dominant type was asking. These speech acts were primarily used to give instructions, request help, and express urgency, especially in high-pressure scenes. This research offers insights into the use of directive speech acts in film dialogues and highlights their relevance to real-world communication and interaction.
