THE ANALYSIS OF SPEECH ACT USED IN “ELYSIUM” MOVIE SCRIPT N$/t&!0i0!#& SYCHANDONE U#i0ersit" $, Mu&!))!*i"!& Sur!/!rt!  ABSTRACT

This study is mainly aimed to describe the speech acts form of the utterance among the character in “Elysium” movie script. The writer uses a descriptive qualitative method to classifying and analyzing the utterance. After investigating  the utterance in this script, the writer found several findings on it. irst, the utterances in this script can be analyzed in speech act types. !peech act itself has two main form" directness and literalness. #irectness is about the syntactical   form and the literalness about the meaning appropriate or not with the utterance. $riter will focus on assertion, questions and commands types on the movie. The main reason people study about speech acts is to understanding what people means when they ma%e utterances and to decrease miss understanding about the meaning.  &eyword' analysis, speech act, Elysium movie

A' I#tr$*ucti$# Every people communicate by using language and give the meaning and communication becomes main part of our life. Human uses language as the way to communicate and language make people become human, it is different animals. “The possession of language distinguishes humans from other animals. To understand our humanity we must understand the language that makes us human” (au!iati, "#$%&""'"%, it means that we should understand the humans) language and we must understand the meaning of speakers) utterance. *eople give utterance when we start the communication with someone then we have the ob+ective such as giving ideas, feeling, reuest, offering and else, all these are depended on speakers) giving meaning then the listeners should understand the speakers) meaning not only the language. The communications that happened

around people must be said clearly so that others understand us. -t means that someone says appropriately and the message accepted by someone who talk with us. ccording to /ule ($001& 23 said that both the speakers and listeners reuire no only knowledge of the language but also appropriate use of that language within a given culture. 4ommon people make communication unstructured. This is not become  problem because the most important of that is their speech can be understood and accepted by others. -t is eually with the argument of *arker ($051&$" that what  people have to do in communication is how they use language to communicate rather than the way of language is structured internally. 6ike what /ule ($001&23 said that in the effort to e7press and asserting himself, people not only produce grammatical structure sentences but they also produce or show actions in that language.  8owadays, language is used in movie9 it has contained the colorful language that gives the different meaning that is not meaning of the real word. :hen we watch movie, we can)t get only entertainment but we can learn about the educational, moral or others value that implied there, or about the acting of the actors or  actress includes of the social relations or the language and the dialogue or  utterance they use, or learn about the literary elements in the movie. Those studies are the branch of interdisciplinary sciences such as pragmatics, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, and others. ;oth of those interdisciplinary sciences can help us understand about the language inside the conversation or  inside the movie story. -n this point, the writer will investigate and discuses through actors) utterance on the movie that used with one of linguistics study, speech act. ustin ($03peech act perform when people makes utterance such as an apology, greeting, reuest, complaint, invitation, compliment, or refusal. >tudying speech act is important to make us comprehend what message that undiscovered in every utterance. >peech act also decided by the language ability of speaker to convey the message in communication. ccording to *arker ($051&$1 speech acts are highly delicate to

the conte7t of the utterances in particular to the relationship between the speaker  and the hearer. :e can study this speech act at many fields of studies that concern about this issue such as pragmatics and sociolinguistics, although in different  point of discussion. *ragmatics is closely related terms in language study. *ragmatics refers to meaning construction in specific interactional conte7t, it also cite to the study of  meaning in use or meaning in interaction (?ullany and *eter, "#$#& $#. -n other  words, at pragmatics we study about the meaning of the conte7t between the speaker and the hearer and also the meaning of their communication. *ragmatics studies meaning in relation to speech situation (6eech, $05%& 1. -n /ule words, with pragmatics, people can talk peoples intended meanings, their assumption, their purposes or goals, and the kinds of action that they are performing when they are speak (/ule, $001& 2. ?oreover, the movie is contained sociolinguistics9 it more studies about the implication between the languages itself with the impact to society. Holmes ($00"&$ writes that sociolinguistics learns about the relationship between language and society. They are interested in e7plaining why we speak differently in different social conte7t and the social functions of language and also the social meaning (Holmes, $00"& $. ;oth of pragmatic and sociolinguistic concern on linguistic meaning as determined in a speech community, which includes the linguistic act that involved speech act as the basic of linguistic communication.

*eople learn language and it would be closely with two branches of  language science, semantics and pragmatics. ;oth of that sciences concern at language but in different side. >emantics refers to the construction of meaning language, while pragmatics refers to meaning construction in specific interactional conte7t. -n other e7planation, semantic study of word means and sentence meaning without any relation to conte7t whereas pragmatics also means as the study of meaning use or meaning interaction (?ullany and *eter, "#$#& $$. 4onte7t is the thing that makes semantics and pragmatics different at their   basic. or e7ample& semantics

>peech act is the show the words by using the meaning when people say something and acting while their saying and then speech act is an utterance that serves a function in communication. -t real'life interactions, we perform speech acts when we offer an apology, greeting, reuest, complaint, invitation, compliment, refusal and etc. (au!iati, "#$%&ecretary @elacourt %.
