Abstract

Grice’s conversational maxims, developed by British philosopher H. Paul Grice in 1975, are based on the Cooperative Principle, which outlines how individuals communicate effectively by adhering to four maxims: Quantity, Quality, Relation, and Manner. This study analyzed the Psick Show podcast scene “Asking BTS RM on 2022 Income Tax” using a descriptive qualitative method. The analysis identified 19 instances of flouting conversational maxims, comprising 5 utterances flouting the maxim of quality (26.32%), 4 flouting the maxim of quantity (21.05%), 4 flouting the maxim of relation (21.05%), and 6 flouting the maxim of manner (31.58%). The maxim of manner was the most frequently flouted, attributed to the speakers’ intentional use of ambiguous or indirect responses to create humor, evade sensitive topics such as income tax, or shift the conversation, particularly in the dynamic and playful interaction involving RM and the hosts. This study aims to enhance readers’ understanding of Grice’s conversational maxims and their flouting, offering insights into how intentional violations shape communication in the context of popular media such as podcasts.

Abstract

This study investigates the use of politeness strategies in the animated film Frozen 2 using Brown and Levinson’s theory of politeness. As a continuation of Disney's popular franchise, Frozen 2 features a variety of characters interacting in emotionally charged and socially complex situations. This research aims to identify and analyze the types of politeness strategies employed by the main characters and to understand the purposes behind their usage. The qualitative method was applied in this study by collecting data from the script of the movie and analyzing utterances that reflect politeness strategies. The findings reveal the total number and types of politeness strategies used in the film, including bald on record, positive politeness, negative politeness, and off record strategies. The most frequently used strategy was positive politeness, which indicates the characters' tendency to build solidarity and maintain friendly relationships. The study concludes that Frozen 2 demonstrates a wide range of politeness strategies, reflecting the characters' social dynamics, personal intentions, and emotional development. This research contributes to understanding how language and politeness intertwine in media targeted at young audiences and may serve as a reference for further linguistic and discourse analysis.
