ABSTRACT

Rizkiyah, Aminatur. 2017. The Flouting Maxim Used by the Main Character In magic Hour, Movie. English Department, Faculty of Humanities, State Islamic University Sunan Ampel Surabaya.

The Advisor : Dr. Mohammad Kurjum, M.Ag

Key Terms : Cooperative Principle, Flouting Maxims, Magic Hour.

This thesis analyzed the flouting maxim used by the main character in magic hour movie. Flouting maxims is the situation where in the speakers cause misunderstanding on their participants’ part or to achieve some other purposes in conversation. There are four types of flouting maxims; they are flouting maxim of quality, flouting maxim of quantity, flouting maxim of relevant and flouting maxim of manner.

The flouted maxims not only can be found in daily life such as advertisement in Radio, television, news paper or magazine. But also, it can be found in the novel, short story, drama or movie. The writer choosed to analyze flouting maxims in a movie the title ‘’magic hour’’ because, this movie interesting object that content of lovely, family, and friendly. And also this movie many conversation so it made easy to analyze the flouted maxims by the main character in ‘’Magic Hour’’ movie.

The writer used Grice’s theory to analyze the flouting maxim in this study. The writer analyzed about the types of flouting maxims and the purposes of flouting maxims by the main character in ‘’Magic Hour’’ movie. The data in this research was utterances of conversation from ’’magic hour’’ movie that included flout maxims. The source of data was a movie directed by Asep Kusdinar 2015 untitled ‘’magic hour’’. The movie was download from ‘’Youtube’’.

In addition, the writer found all the types of flouting maxims by the main character. In this research, the writer found 21 utterances that flouted by the main character. They was 2 flouted maxim of quality, 5 flouted maxim of quantity, 12 flouted maxim of relevant and 2 flouted maxim of manner. There was some purposes why the main character used the flouting maxim. They was to hide something, to give more explanation, to stress something, to avoid talking about something, to change the conversation topic, to avoid the bad situation, to annoy, to get explanation and to be clear.

Thus the writer concluded that the flouting maxims the deep was important to make communication goes smooth. When people understand the deep meaning of what speaker say, misunderstanding will not occur in the end of conversation

Thesis ini menganalis tentang pelanggaran maksim yang digunakan oleh tokoh utama dalam film magic hour. Penulis menggunakan teori grice tentang pelanggaran maksim. Pelanggaran maksim adalah orang yang dengan sengaja berhenti mematuhi cooperative principle. Ada empat macam flouting maxim yaitu pelanggaran maksim of quality, pelanggaran maksim of quanity,pelanggaran maksim of relevant dan pelanggaran maksim of manner.

Penulis memilih untuk menganalisis pelanggaran maksim karena fenomena ini sering terjadi disekitarnya. oleh karena, itu penulis membahas tentang macam-macm pelanggaran maksim apa saja yang digunakan oleh tokoh utama dalam film magic hour dan apa tujuan tokoh utama melakukan pelanggaran maksim. Penilis menganalisis pelanggaran maksim untuk membantu pembaca memperbaiki ketepatan berbahsa saat melakukan komunikasi terutama saat melakukan pelanggaran. Berdasarkan alasan diatas, Thesis ini mengguakan descriptive analysis untuk menjelaskan data menggunakan Grice theory. Magic hour sebagai sumber data. ecakapan dan ungkapan sebagai data yang mana penulis telah menulis percakapan dari film ini.

Penulis menemukan semua type pelanggaran maxim yang digunakan oleh tokoh utama dalam film magic hour. Dalam penelitian ini penulis menemukan 21 pelanggaran maksim. diantaranya, 2 pelanggaran maksim of quality, 5 pelanggaran maksim of quantity, 12 pelanggaran maxim of relevant dan 2 pelanggaran maksim of manner. Selain itu, penulis juga menemukan tujuan mengapa tokoh utama dalam film ini melakukan pelanggaran maksim. yaitu untuk menyembunyikan sesuatu, memberikan banyak penjelasan, menekankan sesuatu, menghindari topic yang sedang dibicarakan, mengganti topic pembicaraan, menghindari situasi yang buruk, untuk mendapatkan penjelasan yang jelas. Jadi penulis menyimpulkan bahwa pelanggaran maksim sangat penting untuk membuat komunikasi berjalan lancar. Saat seseorang memahami makna dari apa yang pembicara katakan, kesalah pahaman tidak akan muncul diakhir pembicara.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

This chapter presents background of study, research problems, Objective of the study, Significance of the study, scope and limitation, and definition of key terms.

1.1 Background of The Study

Language is a system to transfer and inform something through a communication. The people used language to inform, to express their idea, and to build up their social relationship. Language is important things for human being to maintain their life. Saussure’s (1974) theory can prove the statement above, he states that ‘’language is a system of sign that express ideas, and it is therefore comparable to a system of writing. The alphabet of deaf-mutes, symbolic rites, polite formulas, military signals, etc. ’’(p. 16). Language is the most important tool for us to communicate with other people, in writing, gesturing, or speaking.

According to Bloomer (2005) Language becomes an important aspect in human life. Language used to communicate, and to convey messages to the others. Language cannot be separated from human life since it is a means of communicate. We use language to ask for and give information. We also use it to express indignation and annoyance as well as admiration and respect (Holmes, 1992: 2). So language is very important for everybody to communicate each other.

(12)

Communication is also very important in maintaining and establishing good relationship with others and sharing information.

Usually, when the people communicate with each other, they never think what their conversation successful or no and what the listener understand or no what they are talking. So, in doing conversation the speaker and the hearer have to make a successful communicate in order to create a good understanding between them. Their conversation can be successful when the speaker and listener make the cooperative principle in the communication. To make a cooperative principle they must be obey the rules of being a good conversation itself. It must be informative, true, relevant, and clear. The people need a cooperative principle to make the conversation runs well and to get the good communication.

The cooperative principle is the study about pragmatics. Pragmatics is the study about the speaker meaning and how more is communicate than is said. According Levinson (1985) stated that pragmatics is the study of the relation between language and context that are basic an account of language understand. (p. 2). To make the communication be cooperative there is a theory cooperative principle which introduced by Grice (1975) as stated by Grundy (2000) in his book that ‘’Grice argued that speaker intends to be cooperative when they talk. One way of being cooperative principle is for a speaker is to give as much information as is expected’’ (p. 73). According to Levinson (1983), ‘’Cooperative principle is a set of general rules to describe how participants’ cooperate’ in conversation to achieve smooth and efficient interaction’’ (p.101).

(13)

Cooperative principle has strong relation with the ‘four rules’ in communication, those are maxims. Maxim of quality, maxim of quantity, maxim of relevant, and maxim of manner make the speaker transfer the information clearer to the hearer. Those four rules can make the conversation run well. And when the speaker does not obey that rules in order to create an extra meaning, that’s what call the flouting maxims. The Flouting a maxim is a particular salient way of getting addressee to draw an inference and hence recover an implicature. (Grundy, 2000: 78).

The flouting maxims happen commonly in daily life when someone wants to show expressions or say something which they cannot or can say in order to create an implicature. According to Grice in Jaworski and Coupland stated that in a conversation, sometimes people can exploit the maxims to create some implicatures (2000:99). According to Grices in Brown and Yule that the flouting maxims results in the speaker conveying, in addition to the literal meaning of his utterance, an additional meaning, which is a conversational implicature (1983:32)

The flouting maxims can be found in daily life as like in advertising. Advertising can be found in Radio, television, news paper or magazine. Advertising is any controlled form of non-personal presentation and promotion of ideas, goods, or services by an identified sponsor that is used to inform and persuade the selected market (Bolen, 1984:4). Advertising is not only to inform the product, but also to attract and get more consumers by using slogan. Every

(14)

allows the advertisers to use their propagandas message that, usually contain implied meaning since it is a systematic effort to influence people’s opinions, to win them over to certain view or side and to wider the range of the target market. This phenomenon in daily life often referred to as flouting maxims. The advertisers blatantly disobey Gricean maxims of efficient communication because they must do so with the intention of attracting consumers to pay attention to the advertised product.

The flouted maxims may exist not only in a daily life conversation but also in novel, short story, drama or movie. The researcher uses the movie as object study. In this study , the researcher want to show the types of flouting maxims and the purposes of flouting maxims by the main character in ‘’magic hour’’movie. This movie is which one the movie Indonesia in 2015 that adapted from the novel the title Magic Hour : Let In The Unexpected By Tisa TS and directed by Asep Kusdinar. This movie is Drama romantic which is story about a Girl that be trapped between two choose. She has to choose between love and friendly.

The researcher wants to show the plausibility of flouted maxims in a movie. It means that flouted maxims are not only used in a daily life conversation but also it’s used in a drama in movie. The flouting maxim choose to be study because, it can be knowledge and understand in the conversation that deliver the meaning when doing communication and it will be successfully transformation to the receiver. This object is important media which can give influences directly toward the audience whether it will deliver bad or good.

(15)

The writer interests to analyses this movie because there are many conversations in this movie. From this conversation, the researcher can distinguish the types of flouting maxims and the purposes of flouting maxims by the main character. And also, the researcher choose analyses flouting maxims in this movie because, this phenomenon happened in the around her. She thinks that it easy to analyze the types of flouting maxims in magic hour movie. The flouting maxim is one of this study about daily conversation and movie is one of short story that represent our daily life. In this study, the researcher wants to know what the types of flouting maxims and the purposes of flouting maxims by the main character in this movie. Usually The flouting maxim used in movie such as personal secret to hiding or just kidding, to give exploration and deeper understanding toward the flouting maxim.

The researcher found the some previous studies. The first, Riski Aprilia Sukarno (2015), she was a student of UINSA Surabaya. In Her study the title ‘’ Flouting Of Conversation Maxim Uttered By Characters In Fast Five Movie’’. In this research, the writer used movie as the object and used Grice’s theory to analyze flouting maxim in this movie. The writer analyzed flouting maxim by four characters they are Dom, Brian, Vince, Ant and Tej. The writer also found the reason why the characters used flouting maxim in this movie they are angry, worry, scare, happy, peevish, disappoints, and ambitious.

The second, Mufidah (2014), a student of UINSA Surabaya. Entitled ‘’The Flouting of Maxims By The Characters in The Conversation in “You Touched

(16)

short story as the object. In this research, the researcher focuses on the maxims which are flouted by the characters in this short story. The writer only found three flouting maxim they are flouting maxim of quantity, flouting maxim, of relevant, flouting maxim of manner. And also, the writer analyzed purpose flouting maxim by the characters such as to explaining more about something, stressing something, give unnecessary additional information, and to avoid talking about something.

The last, Wafirotul Fami (2015) UINSA Surabaya. In this study the title’’ Flouting The Maxim used By the Characters in Frozen Movie’’. In this study the researcher used the movie as object study. She analyzed flouting maxim by the characters in this movie, they are Elsa, Ana, Sven, Mother (as the Queen), (Father as the King), Duke, Servant, Prince Hans, and Olaf (a creation from snow that created by Elsa) as the figurant of characters. In this study the researcher found the four flouted maxim. They are flouting maxim of quality, flouting maxim of quantity, flouting maxim of relation and flouting maxim of manner. From the context of situation the researcher analyzes the data in term of field, tenor, and mode by used Halliday’s theory.

From the some previous studies, in this study there are some different from others. In the previous studies, there are two previous study used movie and one previous study used a short story as object study. They analyzed the types of flouted maxims by all characters. Whereas, in this study analyses the types of flouting maxims and the purposes of flouting maxims by only one character in other movie. And also the purposes why flouted the maxims by the main

(17)

character in ‘’magic hour’’ movie. Based on the explanation above, this research purposed.

1.2 Research Problem

Based on the description of the background above, the researcher has 2 problems to answer as follows:

1. What are the types of flouting maxims by the main character in Magic Hour movie?

2. What are the purposes of flouting maxims by the main character in Magic Hour movie?

1.3Objective of the study

Based on the problem above, the objective of the study is aimed:

1. To describe the types of flouting maxims by the main character in magic hour movie

2. To describe the purposes of flouting maxims by the main character in magic hour movie

(18)

1.4Significance of the study

The significance of the study is to give contributions in pragmatics study. The finding of the study is expected to be references or alternative information about how to apply pragmatics study especially in how to analyze flouting maxims in Magic Hour movie. The result of this study is expected to give exploration and deeper understanding toward flouting maxims in this movie. This study also expected to be a reference and alternative information for other researchers in conducting research in this area. In other words, I hope the result of this study can enrich the knowledge and add the new example object that can be analyzed by flouting maxim. So, the other researcher can easily to do the research. Furthermore, the researcher hope this study can raise the reader’s knowledge and understanding in predicting the conversation that deliver the meaning when doing communication and it will be successfully transform to the receiver. The research is also expected to arouse curiosity and interest in other linguistics and students of linguistics to make further research on this kind of study.

1.5 Scope and limitation

The research focuses on the flouting maxims in the conversation (utterances) its context and also the purposes of flouting the maxims by the main character in magic hour movie. The researcher uses the Grice’s theory of conversational maxims in analyzing the conversations to determine the flouted of maxims in four ways they are flouting maxim of quality, flouting maxim of quantity, flouting maxim of relevant and flouting maxim of manner.

(19)

The researcher chooses this movie as object because, in this movie many conversation so, it easy to analysis the type of flouting maxims in this movie. Furthermore, flouting maxims is one of this study about daily conversation and movie is one of short story that represent our daily life. In this study, the researcher analyzed what the type the Flouting of Maxims and the purposes of flouting maxims in this movie. Usually The flouting maxim used in a movie such as personal secret to hiding or just kidding, to give exploration and deeper understanding toward the flouting maxim.

1.6 Definition of the key terms

In order to avoid any misunderstanding of the key term and to make them clearer, I would like to give certain definition of the key term use in this study. The key terms are provides as follows:

1. Pragmatics : Pragmatics is the study of the relation between language and context that are basic account of language understand. (Levinson, 1985:2).

2. Cooperative principle : Cooperative principle is a set of general rules to describe how participants’ cooperate’ in conversation to achive smooth and efficient interaction. ( Levinson, 1983 : 101).

3. Flouting maxims : A particular way of getting addressee to draw an inference and hence recover an implicature. (Grundy, 2000 : 7).

(20)

Chapter II

LITERATURE REVIEW

Theoritical Framework

In this study, the writer needs a tool to achieve the purpose of the study itself. The researcher uses pragmatics as the grand theory then discussed Grice’s theory of cooperative principle it is maxim which connect with the flouting maxim. The tool is a theory of Grice’s maxims cooperative principle which is used to identify utterances produced by the main character in magic hour movie.

2.1 Pragmatics

According to Levinson (1983) pragmatics is the study of language usage. It is a part of linguistic study which learns how language as a code relating to its context helps the hearer in interpreting what the speaker implies.

According to Leech (1983), people cannot really understand the nature of the language itself unless they understand pragmatics. One of the linguistics purposes of pragmatic is the study of meaning in relation to speech situation. Based on this purposes, the speaker can choose the language for social interaction and understand the effect of their utterance choices. Besides, pragmatics is important because in a communication, speaker and hearer attempt to solve problem.

(21)

Speaker’s problem is how to achieve his/her goal in communicating something. In contrast, the hearer tries to understand what the speaker‘s goals in his speech.

According to Grundy (2000), pragmatics is about explaining how we produce and understand the language which is used in communication everyday but apparently rather peculiar uses of language (p. 3). Pragmatics is how the people use good language, follows the rules of language, understand the utterances, and be responsible for what they say. It can help people to understand about what the speaker means.

2.2 Grice’s Cooperative Principle

Grice (1989) advises cooperative principle which makes the conversational contribution is in the right size and agrees with the accepted purpose of the conversation a speaker is connected. Grice states that cooperative principle ‘’make your conversational contribution such as is required, at the stage at which it occurs, by the accepted purpose or direction of the talk exchange in which you are engaged ’’(p 26). It means that a speaker need to be as informative as is requires based on the context of the conversation so that communication will be successful.

To make the principle acceptable, Grice (1989) generates the principle into four conversational categories or maxim that will result in accordance with cooperative principle (p. 26). The categories are:

(22)

2.2.1 Maxim Of Quality

a. Do not say what you believe to be false

b. Do not say that for which you lack adequate evidence maxim of quality suggests speakers to be true. It proposes a speaker to say what he believes to be true and not say something with less evidence. Black (2006) adds that ‘’this maxim has to do with the truth of an utterance’’ (p. 30).

Example:

Tika puts her hat on the sofa then, she goes to the bathroom. Fina outs from her room and looking the bag because she wants to go out. Fina found the hat on the sofa and takes it. After that, tika ask her Fina.’’

Tika : do you find my hat?

Fina : yes. I find your hat on the sofa then I take it.

Fina really takes the hat, so it completes the maxim of quality because Fina to do it and she tells the truth.

2.2.2. Maxim of Quantity

a. Make your contribution as informative as it required

(23)

Those mean that maxim of quantity suggests speakers to be brief. It proposes a speaker to contribute as informative as a required and not to contribute too much or too little information than is required. Black (2006) added that ‘’this maxim requires that we offer the appropriate amount information ’’ ( p. 29) ’’. Example:

A : where is the nearest hospital? B : it is in front of the post office

A ask B where is the nearest hospital. B understands that the nearest hospital from the place they are talking is in front of the post office. It fulfills the maxim of quantity. It is because, B answer is informative and explicit that the hospital is near with it place where the conversation is taken.

2.2.3 Maxim of Relevance a. Be relevance

b. Maxim of relevance proposes speakers to be relevant. A speaker has to say something related to the topic.

Example:

A : how was the scenery? B : it was amazing

The conversation above is clear enough, between the answer and the question is relevant.

(24)

2.2.4 Maxim of Manner

a. Avoid obscurity of expression b. Avoid ambiguity

c. Be brief ( avoid unnecessary prolixity) d. Be orderly

Maxim of manner suggest speaker to be clear. It means that a speaker needs to say briefly, orderly, and avoid obscurity and ambiguity. Black (2006) stated that ’’the maxim refers not to what said, but to how it express ’’(p. 30).

Example:

Dewi : when will you go to Surabaya? Anton : tomorrow

Dewi : what time you will go to Surabaya Anton : at 08.00

The conversation is clear without the appearance of misunderstanding. It was perfectly brief and well ordered. Those all how maxims work in cooperative principle, after understanding it all, the researcher lets to know the connection between the cooperative principle and maxim, and also conversational implicature. According to Grice (1989 : p.30)

2.3 Flouting the cooperative principle

Flouting the cooperative principle is happened on some occasions. The speakers do the flouting intend their hearer to understand what the speaker’s flouting about. A flout occurs when a speaker blatantly fails to observe a maxim,

(25)

not with any intention of deceiving or misleading, but because the speaker wants to the hearer to look for the meaning which is different from, or in addition to the expressed meaning. It takes place when individuals deliberately cease to apply the maxims the persuade their listeners to infer the hidden meaning behind the utterances that is, the speaker employ’’ implicature ‘’(S.C Levinson, 1983, p.104).

Grundy (2000) states in his book that flouting is a particular silent way of getting an addressee to draw an inference and hence recover an implicature .(p.78). It also said by Cutting ( 2002) that flouting maxims is when the speakers appear not to follow the maxim but expect hearers to appreciate the meaning implied (p. 37). Thomas stated that flouting maxim occur when speaker blatantly fails to observe a maxim to the level of what is said, with the deliberate intention of generating an implicature. ( Thomas, 1995 : 65 ).

Usually flouting maxim occurs in daily conversation such as in daily life. But also can be found in movie, novel or short story. It is done by people because some purposes, such as they want to create a humorous in their communication or they want to say something.

1.3.1 Flouting Maxim of quality

Flouting maxim of quality occur when the speaker says something which is blatantly untrue or for which she lacks evidence (Thomas, 1995 : 67). The participant can be mentioned flouted the maxim of quality when the speaker implies the information which is not suitable with the fact.

A : do you take my book on the table? B : I don’t take your book

(26)

In this conversation B not give clear answer. Actually B took his book on the table but, he

does not give information clear to A.

2.3.2 Flouting Maxim of quantity

Cutting (2002) stated that ‘’the speaker who flouts the maxim quantity sees to give too little or too much information’’ (p.37). It means that the speaker may give information not as it requires.

Example:

Tomi : where do you buy it bag?

Doni : in the supermarket, it is very nice and cheep

Doni answered and he giving all the information that his bag very nice and cheep. Tomi only needs information where the place he buy it bag but he give more said.

2.3.3 Flouting Maxim of Relation

Cutting (2002) if the speaker flouted the maxim of relation, The speaker expect that the hearers will be able to imagine what the utterance did not say, and make connection between their utterance and preceding one. The speaker flouted the maxim of relation when he/she does not give a response within the topic which is being discussed. (p. 39). Here the example:

Jo : can you dinner with me this night?

(27)

The answered above not connection with the question. So that make the conversation not runs well. Jo asked Jeni that he want to invite her to join diner with him. But she not answer yes or no but give the reason she is very tired it can conclude that she can’t to join with him.

2.3.4 Flouting Maxim of Manner

According to Cutting (2002), the speaker flouted the maxim of manner, because he/she appears utterance which to be obscure or ambiguous. (p. 39). So, the speaker flouted the maxim of manner when the speaker deliberately fails to observe the maxim by not being brief, using obscure language, not being orderly or using ambiguity.

Example:

Nina : where are you off too ?

Roy : I was thinking of going out to get some of that funny white stuff for somebody

Nina : ok, but don’t be long dinner nearly ready

Roy speaks in an ambiguous way saying ‘’that funny white stuff for somebody’’ because he is avoiding saying ‘ice-cream’ and ‘Michelle’ so that his little daughter does not become and ask the ice cream before her meal. Sometimes writers play with heighten words the ambiguity

(28)

1.4 Previous studies

This study has analysis by some people. In previous study, as I know that there are three people who analysis about the fluting maxim. The first, Riski Aprilia Sukarno (2015), she was a student of UINSA Surabaya. In Her study the title ‘’ Flouting of conversation Maxim Uttered used by characters In Fast Five Movie’’. In this research, the writer used movie as the object and used Grice’s theory to analyze flouting maxim in this movie. The writer analyzed flouting maxim by four characters they are Dom, Brian, Vince, Ant and Tej. The writer also found the reason why the characters used flouting maxim in this movie they are angry, worry, scare, happy, peevish, disappoints, and ambitious.

The second, Mufidah (2014), a student of UINSA Surabaya. Entitled ‘’The Flouting of Maxims By The Characters in The Conversation in “You Touched Me, A Short Story By D.H. Lawrence’’. In this research, the researcher used short story as the object. In this research, the researcher focuses on the maxims which are flouted by the characters in this short story. The writer only found 3 flouting maxim they are flouting maxim of quantity, flouting maxim, of relevant, flouting maxim of manner. And also, the writer analyzed purpose flouting maxim by the characters such as to explaining more about something, stressing something, give unnecessary additional information, and to avoid talking about something.

CHAPTER III

RESEARCH METHODE

This chapter contains of research methodology. It includes research design, data instrument, data and data sources, data collection and data analysis

3.1 Research Design

Surakhmad (1994 : 139) stated that descriptive method is a ways of research using of technique of searching, collecting of classifying, analyzing the data, interpreting and making conclusion. In this, study the researcher used descriptive method which described all of utterance in the conversation used by characters in ‘’Magic Hour’’ Movie that included the types of flouted maxims and the purposed of flouting maxims used by the main character in magic hour movie. The researcher used Grice’s theory about cooperative principle to analyzed the utterances that flouted maxim by the main character.

3.2 Data Instrument

According to Parahoo (1997 : 52) stated that data instrument is a tool used to collect the data. An instrument is a tool designed to measure knowledge attitude and skills. In qualitative research, the researcher is the primary instrument. As stated by Bogdan and Biklen (1982: 97), the researcher himself/herself is the key instrument of qualitative research. In accordance with Bogdan and Biklen,

20 20

(31)

Lincoln and Guba (in Vanderstoep and Johnston, 2009: 188) state that the best instrument for qualitative is human. Therefore, the researcher used descriptive qualitative which had person as the instrument. In this research, the exact instrument to acquire and analyzed the data collection is the writer herself, some notes, personal computer and some utterances that flouted maxims by the main character in the movie. In other words the writer watched and understood the movie, selected, analyzed and took some utterances that flouted maxim by the main character. And also took note which connected with the theory that used in this research.

3.3 Data and Data sources

The data in this research was utterance of conversation from ’’magic hour’’ movie that included flout maxims. The source of data was a movie directed by Asep Kusdinar 2015 untitled ‘’magic hour’’. The movie was gotten from ‘’Youtube’’.

3.4 Technique of Data Collection

The data of this research are those utterances that include in flouting maxims by the main character in ‘’magic hour movie’’. The writer started to collect the data right after she found the appropriate character to be the object of this research. In collecting the data, the writer did several steps such as:

1. Browsing and downloading the movie of ‘’Magic Hour’’’ and script from’’ internet’’.

(32)

2. Watching and reading the script of the movie until finish and checked the utterances by the main character.

3. Collecting the word, sentence, utterances or expressions then selected and identified the conversations which were flouted maxims by the main character

3.5 Data Analysis

According to Bogdan and Biklen (1982:145) stated that data analysis is working with data which includes classifying, understanding the data, and determining the data that will be presented. In analyzing the data, the writer did several steps:

1. Finding all the types of flouting maxims used by the main character in ‘’magic hour’’ movie.

there are 21 utterances flouted the maxim by the main character. In this study, the researcher

found the main character 2 flouted the maxim of quality, 5 flouted maxim of quantity, 12

flouted the maxim of relevant and 2 flouted the maxim of manner. It can conclude that the

some purposes why the main character flouted the maxim. They are to give more explanation,

to stressing something, to avoid talking about something, to change the conversation topic.

clear.

From this research can be known that the main character often flout the maxim of

(4)

The similarity of this study with the some previous studies are used the movie as object study. To analyze the flouting maxim used Grice’s theory about cooperative principle

and used descriptive method to analyze. And the difference from previous studies with this

research is in this study focused analyzed flouted the maxim by only one character it is the

main character. Whether in previous studies analyzed flouted maxim by all characters.

5.2 Suggestion

Based on the study, the researcher suggests to the next researchers that want to know

and understand deeper about flouting maxim field to analysis the flouting maxim not only in

a movie but also analyzed in other area. The researcher also recommends to uses Grice’s

theory to conduct the research within other topic. Other researchers can analyze flouting

maxim in more specific are because many researchers only focus on all the types flouting

maxims. The other researcher can choose one or two the types of flouting maxim to be

analyze. Such as, the other researcher can focused to analyze only one or two flouting maxim

of quality. They can analyze with other statement problem.

Therefore, the writer suggest to the reader to have interest in study pragmatics that

can be fulfilled as the maxim required of the theory cooperative principle. From those we can

investigate about the aspect of meaning at very scope of science.

Finally, the writer hopes hope that this study gives benefit for the English

Department, especially student in State Islamic University of Sunan Ampel Surabaya who

want to analyze cooperative principle. It can be knowledge to the reader that flouted maxim

not only happened in daily life but also in the movie. And also it can be reference and
