Abstract

One of the texts with nuanced meanings is an advertisement. When discussing how to effectively convey messages in advertisements, the complexity of meaning encompasses both written and visual components. In order to understand the power and meaning of a text that contains multiple modes, such as verbal, visual, and aural, a multimodal analysis of an advertisement is necessary in order to understand the complexities of meaning. The research aims to examine the multimodal resources in the Tokopedia X BTS advertisement on YouTube based on five semiotic multimodal systems proposed by Anstey & Bull (2018). This research employs a qualitative method and a descriptive approach. The data were taken in the form of an image that was taken from a screenshot of the Tokopedia advertisement. The result shows that there are five aspects of the multimodal system contained in this advertisement, namely linguistic, visual, audio, gestural, and spatial. These five aspects are mutually sustainable to convey messages from the Tokopedia application and also advertise and introduce this sophisticated application.

Abstract

The article begins by highlighting the importance of language as a means of communication and the significance of studying the relationship between language and context. It also discusses the relevance of analyzing speech acts in understanding the intended meaning behind utterances. Previous studies on speech acts in Hemingway's works are mentioned, focusing on locution, illocution, and perlocution, or the form and meaning of speech acts. The research methodology employed in this study is descriptive-qualitative, involving the analysis of dialogue fragments from the short story. The data collection technique involves extracting relevant conversations from the story and categorizing them based on the speaker, hearer, topic, and setting. The analysis includes identifying the types of speech acts used, exploring their possible meanings, classifying them into five general functions (assertives, commissives, directives, expressives, and declaratives), and categorizing them based on sentence structure (declarative, interrogative, imperative, or exclamative). The findings and discussions section presents several examples of speech acts found in the short story, describing the locution, illocution, perlocution, and classifications of each speech act. The results demonstrate the diverse range of speech acts employed by the characters in "The Killers" and their impact on communication within the narrative.
