Abstract

This study explores illocutionary acts in the Enola Holmes 2 movie, employing a descriptive qualitative approach to identify and categorize the various types of illocutionary acts used in the dialogue. Drawing from Searle's theory of speech acts, the research focuses on analyzing the language used by the characters to understand the illocutionary functions behind their utterances. The study identifies several categories of illocutionary acts, with directive acts being the most prevalent. This finding suggests that the characters frequently use language to influence the behaviour or actions of others, reflecting the dynamic interactions and power relations within the narrative. In addition, expressive, commissive, and declarative acts are also analyzed, showcasing how each type contributes to character development and plot progression. The research highlights the importance of illocutionary acts in shaping the film’s discourse and enhancing the communication between characters. Based on these findings, it is recommended that further studies focus on the relationship between illocutionary acts and character psychology in cinematic discourse, as well as explore how these acts can be used to engage and manipulate the audience’s emotions. By identifying these speech acts, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of the role of language in film and its impact on audience interpretation
