Kata Kunci : pragmatic, speech act, thor movie

Penelitian ini meneliti tindak tutur yang diucapkan oleh Thor sebagai pemeran utama dalam film Thor. Film tersebut menggambarkan calon raja yang diasingkan oleh ayahnya karena sifatnya yang arogan, sehingga banyak tindak tutur yang menggambarkan kehidupan nyata. Mengingat masih adanya masalah dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris mengenai tindak tutur, maka diadakan penelitian ini menggunakan analisis pragmatis. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menemukan klasifikasi tindak tutur berdasarkan teori dari Searle dan menganalisis tindak tutur yang berkaitan dengan bentuk pengucapan dan kaitannya dengan fungsi kalimat.

Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian analisis deskriptif kualitatif. Data-data yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah kalimat-kalimat yang diucapkan oleh tokoh utama yang berasal dari naskah film yang dikolaborasikan dengan film aslinya. Data dianalisis menggunakan pendekatan pragmatis dengan teori dari Searle. Dalam teori terdapat 5 klasifikasi dalam tindak tutur, representative, directive, commissive,

expressive , dan declarative. Ada 2 tipe tindak tutur yang dijabarkan oleh Searle, yaitu

direct dan indirect.

Berdasarkan analisis, penulis menemukan dari kelima klasifikasi hanya di ucapkan 4 oleh tokoh utama, representative, directive, commissive, dan expressive. Representative dan directive masing-masing diucapkan sebanyak 56 kali. Commissive muncul 20 kali, dan expressive sebanyak 29 kali. Semua tipe tindak tutur diucapkan oleh tokoh utama dalam film. Direct tindak tutur diucapkan sebanyak 140 kali, dan indirect diucapkan sebanyak 11 kali.
