Abstract
Background: Figurative language are quite popular in song’s lyric because we can hide our messages or what we had experienced or felt. That became a reason why we should learn more about kinds of figurative language in order to understand more about the real meanings that are conveyed in the songs.
Purpose: The aim for this research is to discover the kinds of figurative language in three songs of Disney Movies Original Soundtrack.
Design and methods: In this research, the researcher used qualitative methods. In analyzing the data, the researcher used Mezo’s theory of figurative language. The source of data for this research are from Disney movies original soundtrack namely, the song entitled “Lead the way” from Raya and the last dragon movie, “Love, brave and true” from Mulan movie and “How does a moment last forever” from the Beauty and the Beast movie. The data from this research are the sentences that had figurative language.
Result: After doing an analysis, there are 21 data appeared. The researcher discovered 6 kinds of figurative language from those data namely, Hyperbole (6 data), Metaphor (5 data), Personification (4 data), Litotes (2 data), Simile (2 data), and Synecdoche (2 data).
背景:比喻语言在歌曲歌词中非常流行,因为我们可以隐藏我们的信息或我们的经历或感受。这就是为什么我们应该更多地学习各种比喻语言,以便更多地理解歌曲中传达的真正含义。目的:本研究的目的是发现迪士尼电影原声音乐中三首歌曲的比喻语言类型。设计与方法:在本研究中,研究者采用定性方法。在分析数据时,研究者使用了Mezo的比喻语言理论。本研究的数据来源于迪士尼电影的原声音乐,即《Raya》和最后一部龙电影中的“Lead The way”,《花木兰》中的“Love, brave and true”,《美女与野兽》中的“How does a moment last forever”。这项研究的数据是带有比喻语言的句子。结果:经分析,共得到21份数据。研究人员从这些数据中发现了6种比喻语言,即夸张(6个数据)、隐喻(5个数据)、拟人(4个数据)、Litotes(2个数据)、明喻(2个数据)和提喻(2个数据)。
