Key Words: Deixis, Movie Script

Language is one of the most fundamental aspects of human’s life. People

use language for communication. To understand the meaning in every

communication which occurs with language, we are necessary to know the

contextual information, like the culture, time and place where the language is

uttered. Language and context are two things which cannot be separated each

other. They have relation each others. Contextual meaning is connected with the

reference. Every utterance refers to different things based on the speaker’s

meaning. Deixis shows the phenomenon where in understanding the meaning of

certain words and phrases in an utterance requires contextual information. Movie

script is one of the appropriate objects for analyzing deixis because the sentences

in the movie script belong to spoken language. “Gnomeo and Juliet” is the

Kata Kunci: Deiksis, Naskah Film

Bahasa adalah salah satu aspek yang paling mendasar dalam kehidupan

manusia. Orang-orang menggunakan bahasa untuk berkomunikasi. Untuk

memahami makna dalam setiap komunikasi bahasa, kita perlu mengetahui

konteks informasinya, misalnya seperti budaya, waktu dan tempat dimana bahasa

dilafalkan. Bahasa dan konteks adalah dua hal yang tidak bisa dipisahkan satu

sama lain. Mereka saling berkaitan. Makna kontekstual dihubungkan dengan

rujukan. Setiap ujaran merujuk pada benda-benda yang berbeda tergantung pada

maksud pembicara. Deiksis menunjukkan fenomena dimana dalam memahami

makna kata atau frase ujaran memerlukan konteks informasi. Naskah film adalah

salah satu objek yang tepat untuk menganalisis deiksis karena kalimat-kalimat di

naksah film termasuk dalam bahasa lisan. “Gnomeo and Juliet” merupakan film

yang tepat untuk menganalisis deiksis karena alur ceritanya sesuai dengan

kehidupan sehari-hari. Jadi dalam penelitian ini, penulis mengambil judul

“Sebuah Analisis Deiksis di Naskah Film “Gnomeo and Juliet” oleh Rob

Sprackling dan John R. Smith”.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah (1) untuk mendeskripsikan jenis-jenis

deiksis yang muncul di naskah film “Gnomeo and Juliet” oleh Rob Sprackling dan

John R. Smith (2) untuk mengetahui bagaimana deiksis digunakan di naskah film

“Gnomeo and Juliet” oleh Rob Sprackling dan John R. Smith.

dalam penelitian ini, penulis menggunakan teknik analisis deskriptif. Data

dalam penelitian ini adalah deiksis, jenis-jenis deiksis dan bagaimana deiksis

digunakan di naskah film “Gnomeo and Juliet” dan sumber datanya adalah naskah

film “Gnomeo and Juliet” oleh Rob Sprackling dan John R. Smith.

Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa terdapat empat jenis deiksis di

naskah film “Gnomeo and Juliet” oleh Rob Sprackling dan John R. Smith, yaitu

deiksis orang dan sosial, waktu, tempat dan wacana dengan persentase deiksis

orang dan sosial (71.99%), deiksis waktu (5.48%), deiksis tempat (10.60%) dan

deiksis wacana (11.91%).

Sehubungan dengan fakta bahwa deiksis penting untuk mengindikasikan

referensi yang tidak tetap, siswa harus mengembangkan pengetahuan mereka

dengan memahami fungsi deiksis, jenis-jenis deiksis dan bagaimana deiksis

digunakan dalam sebuah ucapan.
