The purpose of this sociolinguistic research is to provide an in-depth analysis of language use as a reflection of power dynamics and social status in Greta Gerwig little Women (2019). This research uses a combination of film analysis and sociolinguistic theory to examine how language is used to communicate and influence power dynamics and social differences among the characters. Data was collected by closely observing the film, focusing on the language choices and communication strategies used by the characters. The analysis explores the complex nuances of language use in the context of social relations, examining differences in language use among different social groups, and the role of gender in shaping language patterns. The results highlight the interplay between language, power and social status in the story of the film "Little Women", providing valuable insights into the field of sociolinguistics and highlighting the importance of language in describing and challenging social dynamics. The analysis focuses on language use in the context of social relations, including language use by characters from different social groups and differences in language use between male and female characters.

Abstract

The song is one of the ways that language is used in social interaction. The lyrics of a song can be used by the writer to communicate various thoughts and concepts. People can find the song's message simply by listening to the lyrics. But many people or listeners don't understand the meaning and moral message of songs. They just enjoy the lyric of a song without knowing the meaning or message. The purpose of this research is to examine implicit moral message and significance behind the well-known song "Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be)". The song, which was famously performed by Doris Day and was written by Jay Livingston and Ray Evans, offers a philosophical viewpoint on accepting fate and life's uncertainties. The research used qualitative techniques, and the results showed that some moral messages, they are acceptance, resilience, living in the present, flexibility, gratitude and contentment, and personal reponsibility. Wish after knowing the moral message, people can promote a more purposeful and rewarding way of life
