Deixis is one of the pragmatic aspects that refers to words, phrases, or expressions that have different meanings depending on the contexts of who is speaking and the time and the place where the utterance is expressed. This study aims to analyze the types of deixis found in Olivia Rodrigo's song, "Driver's License". This song is one of the most popular songs today and is widely heard around the world. The research method used is a mixed method through a descriptive approach. The data were obtained by observing the lyrics of the song, which were then analyzed by content to determine the types of deixis in this song. Then, data analysis by using (1) generating the natural unit, (2) classifying, categorizing, and ordering the unit, (3) structuring the content, and (4) interpreting the data. The results of the study show that there are 119 deictic expressions in this song and can be categorized into three types of deixis, namely: person deixis, which refers to the character or noun in an utterance; spatial deixis, which refers to the place or location spoken; and temporal deixis, which refers to the time when the speaker is speaking. By knowing the types of deixis, students can distinguish deixis information through categories that are appropriate based on the types so that they can distinguish the use of deixis based on the situation of the object used.

Abstract

Song is a work of art created by humans and used for entertainment or a means to express and reveal the contents of the heart. By using songs, many people try to say something or convey a message to someone from the bottom of their hearts. The purpose of this research is to find out the interpersonal meaning of Taylor Swift’s Song “Anti-Hero”. This research applied a qualitative method to analyze 15 lyrics of the “Anti-Hero” song. This research is based on the theory of interpersonal meaning proposed by Halliday. The result showed that the song “Anti-Hero” by Taylor Swift used interpersonal meaning elements of Mood and Residue in the lyrics. Therefore, it can be concluded that the song “Anti-Hero” used interpersonal meaning to explain the meaning of the song to the listeners to show the feelings, emotions, and ideas of the songwriter.

Abstract

It would have been much better if both speakers and interlocutors could carry out conversations with each other that meet the rules of language when providing information in a communication that was carried out in real life, or it can be said that the communication carried out was communicative. Each response must be pertinent to the question, not wordy, and contain no lies or ambiguous conversations so that the speaker or interlocutor understands more about what was being discussed. As a result, cooperative principles in discourse are required. This study is connected to linguistic rules in the film Extraction II. This study aimed to (1) determine the type of violation of the cooperative maxims presented in the film Extraction II and (2) characterize the speakers’ motivation behind committing the violation. The methodologies and strategies employed in the Extraction II film research were the listening and note-taking methodology for data collection and then the researcher employed a data analysis technique, specifically the equivalent method, to identify the form of violation and motivation of the cooperative principle. In addition, the approach used in this study was qualitative. According to the findings of the research, there were seven violations of the cooperative principle in the film. These infractions included one violation of the maxim of quantity, three maxims of quality, two maxims of relevance, and one maxim of manner. In addition, the violation served six purposes: to convince, plan something, cover something, express annoyance, divert the topic of conversation, and confirm identity.

Abstract

This research aims to analyse the types of verbal humour, the subtitling strategies, and its acceptability in Modern Family Season 6. The research is conducted by using the theory of verbal humour translation by Raphaelson-West (1989), theory of subtitling strategies by Gottlieb (1992) and the theory of translation acceptability proposed by Nababan (2012). This research uses descriptive qualitative method. In the process, this research utilizes a questionnaire with inputs from raters as a consideration in analysing the translation. The data are utterances containing verbal humour from Modern Family Season 6. The result shows the most frequent type is universal humour (45), followed by linguistic humour (19), and cultural humour (13). Furthermore, 8 out of 10 subtitling strategies are applied by the subtiler. The most dominant strategy is the paraphrase strategy (28), followed by transfer (15), expansion (11), condensation (10), deletion (6), imitation (4), transcription (2), and decimation (1). The acceptability level of the subtitle is acceptable in 69 data and less acceptable in 8 data. The object of the research proposes to serve humour in a usual relatable family interaction that is universal. However, the source language is English which has different grammatical, vocabulary, and syntactic rules than Indonesian. Thus, paraphrase strategy is the most frequently used to transfer the message naturally and appropriately to the target language rules without losing the humour. Hence, the subtitle of verbal humour in Modern Family Season 6 is natural and relevant to the Indonesian rules that conveys the meaning and preserve the humour aspects.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the characterization of the characters in Lemony Snicket’s Ersatz Elevator novel. The found characterizations were then later categorized and sorted so that it could be contrasted and formed into a binary opposition. Binary opposition is chosen to analyze the novel because of the children's literature’s nature of contrasting the characters. The primary data were taken from the novel in the form of dialogues and narrations while the secondary data were taken from the various sources that were deemed to support the study. The data found in the novel were then identified, classified, and reduced. This study was finished with two results. The first result is the characterization found in characters are; greedy, grateful, indifferent, caring, coward, and brave. The second result deals with the binary opposition. The pairs found in the novel are greedy – grateful, indifferent – caring, and coward – brave. After thorough interpretation and analysis, the study shows that there is a power imbalance between in between the adult and the children characters as they have opposite traits with each other along with their responsibilities as their respected roles. The power imbalance shown in the characters are made more prominent by how the children are portrayed to be the hero by the author while the adults are portrayed to be reckless.

Abstract

The underlying theory of grief is rooted in understanding the concept of loss. Stages of grief define the journey of accepting the reality of loss. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross shows these stages of grief by interviewing a terminally ill patient who was confronting the end-of-life transition. Stages of grief consist of denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Throughout the end-of-life transition, some may have a different response to grief at certain stages. This study aims to identify the stages of grief and the response to grief that Cameron Turner, the Swan Song film's main character, portrays. The data analysis exercises the qualitative descriptive method. The steps were watching the film and reading the script, identifying the data, classifying the data, reducing the collected data from the film and script, and analyzing the data. The findings of this study show that Cameron Turner was going through a complete grief stage of denial, anger, bargaining, and depression down to the acceptance stage. To respond to each stage, Cameron had a variety of modes of expression that differed in each of the stages of grief, such as verbal response, nonverbal response, physical response, and physical activities

Abstract

Post-memory is a study of traumatic memory transmission from first-generation to post-generation. A transmission of traumatic memories often leads to complicated effects on the post-generation. This novel tells the story of a young boy called Little Dog, who lives with his grandmother Lan and his mother Rose, who are the Vietnam War survivors. As a post-generation of the Vietnam War survivor, Little Dog has to live in a complex reality because of the traumatic past of his family. This study aims to describe the transmission, form of crisis, and identification of traumatic memories constructed in Ocean Vuong’s On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous. It applies the theory proposed by Marianne Hirsch, known as post-memory. It is a qualitative study that uses a descriptive analysis method and exercises several stages, namely, the determination of data sources and data, data collection, and data analysis. The results show that the form of traumatic memory transmission occurring in this novel is familial transmission. Little Dog experiences this transmission because of his grandmother, Lan, and his mother, Rose, daily behavior. The transmission of traumatic memory has caused a crisis within Little Dog that then prompts him to identify the transmitted traumatic memory. The form of memory identification occurring within Little Dog was a combination of idiopathic and Heteropathic. Writing has helped Little Dog to understand, articulate, narrate, and finally accept his familial traumatic memory as a part of his life.
