Abstract

Expressing what we want or feel to others can be done directly and indirectly. But often, in some conversations, people fail to use directness. For communication to flow smoothly, maxims are utilized in discourse. On the other hand, people frequently fail to respect the maxim to convey implicit meaning, known as maxim flouting. This paper aimed to determine which maxims were performed by the main character Mike Lawford in the movie Pay the Ghost. The researchers used a descriptive qualitative approach to analyze the data. The researchers obtained the data by downloading and watching the film in the past. This study showed that the main character in this movie fulfilled 59 maxims consisting of 20 times using the maxim of relation, the maxim of quality 18 times, the maxim of manner 16 times, and the maxim of quantity five times. So, here the main character in this movie mostly used the maxim or relation in his conversation, and he rarely used the maxim of quantity. The main character also flouted 41 maxims which consisted of the maxim of quantity 20 times, the maxim of manner nine times, the maxim of quality seven times, and the maxim of relation five times. The main character in this movie mainly floated the maxim of quantity in his conversation.

This research was qualitative research by means of semiotic analysis. The interpretation of metaphor was conducted by analysing the vehicle-topic mapping focused on observing the relational and referential aspects of the sign in the metaphor as a complex sign. The observation of relational and referential aspects was conducted by using Danesi-Perron’s metaphor theory (1999) and Peirce’s trichotomy model. The results of this research showed that the interpretation of metaphor is closely related to the vehicle (representamen)-topic (object) mapping deciphering cultural wisdom messages (interpretant). The representamens represent the values of cultural wisdom through their functions, characteristics, benefits, and unique conditions.

Abstract

Tambo is a historical literary work that contains the origins of the ancestors and customs of the Minangkabau people. One of the important themes in the Tambo is the division of two systems of government in Minangkabau customs called Lareh Nan Duo, which is full of symbolic language. This study aims to dismantle the meaning of Tambo which is required by the symbolic and ideological language. Roland Barthes' semiological theory is used to uncover the symbolic meaning behind the story of Lareh Nan Duo. This research is a qualitative study with a qualitative descriptive method. The data obtained is through a literature study. The research object material is sourced from Tambo text by Datoek Batoeah Sango (1959). The units of data analysis in this research are words, sentences, phrases, paragraphs, and discourses that tell about Lareh Nan Duo. The results of the analysis illustrate that the Minangkabau society is a dualistic society, divided by two systems of government and their rules. The journey of the Minangkabau people on the dualism of the system and the rules gave a sign that the Minangkabau people held to two truths. The Minangkabau people reduce them to a map, namely Islam. The Minangkabau people make Islam as harmonization in a prolonged dualism. This research can add to the treasures and become a reference for researchers in the field of Barthes’s Semiology which is applied to Tambo. This research opens up space for other researchers to get involved in the historiography

Abstract

Our country, Indonesia, is the home of bi/multi-lingual speakers where most people are able to speak two languages at least or more. Most speakers are even good at foreign language, English in particular. Thus, this background causes code switching happens noticeably commonplace. Since it happens very frequently, for some cases it becomes habit. This phenomena also occurs to Gita Savitri, an Indonesian YouTuber who is able to speak several languages. This research aims: 1) to identify types of code switching, and 2) to describe some reasons of the used of code switching by Gita Savitri in selected videos in her YouTube channel. Those videos were chosen based on the sequence and context of speech that is dominant in the occurrence of code switching. This study employs qualitative descriptive method. The data in this research was Gita’s utterances. Researchers used the theory proposed by Hoffman (1991) to analyse the data. Results of this study found fifty times of code-switching occurrence. There were twenty-one utterances of intra-sentential code switching; twenty utterances of inter-sentential code switching; and nine utterances of emblematic code switching. Also, some reasons by Gita Savitri made code switching in her videos were: seven utterances talking about certain topics, five utterances quoting other people, four utterances affirming something or expressing solidarity, four utterances included in connecting sentences, four utterances adventure used for clarification, one speaker’s utterance used to clarify the conversation content to the opposite. Also, five utterances used by speaker’s to express the identity of a group. At last, it is hoped that the findings of this research could be a novel contribution in a field of sociolinguistics, also a new insight for code-switching phenomenon which is probably found very common nowadays in Indonesia.
