INTRODUCTION
Communication is foundational to human interaction, requiring both verbal and nonverbal forms to ensure mutual understanding.
Effective communication is particularly dependent on the correct use of grammar, both in speaking and writing, to prevent misunderstandings.
Halliday .
points out, language is not just a medium for conveying information but is also crucial for building relationships and expressing From early childhood, language plays a central role in intellectual, social, and emotional development, making it a key tool for learning and self-development.

The English language, being widely used internationally, holds significant importance for communication skills.
However, many students do not find learning English in school enjoyable.
To make the learning process more engaging, various techniques can be employed, such as incorporating music, movies, or magazines into Alolaywi .
said that one effective way is to encourage language learners to develop their language competencies by watching English-language movies.
As Mishan .
suggests, authentic materials like English movies serve as valuable audio-visual tools that help students improve their listening, speaking, pronunciation, and vocabulary skills.
Barman .
said films are effective ways to motivate oral skills as they present contemporary language with fashionable expressions.
Through Films it is possible to teach vocabulary of certain social Sufficient repetition and practice can help learners receive a great number of vocabularies despite their previous linguistic King .
wrote watching movies with English subtitles, in particular, can enhance language acquisition by maintaining students' interest and making the learning process more Pragmatics, a branch of linguistics, focuses on how meaning is communicated by a speaker and interpreted by a listener.
(Levinson, 2.
highlights that pragmatics delves into the intended meaning behind utterances, rather than just the literal meanings of words.
It explores the relationship between linguistic forms and their users, emphasizing the context in which language is used.
This perspective aligns with the importance of understanding language beyond its surface level, as discussed by Yule .
, who emphasizes that the meaning of a statement often depends on the context in which it is spoken.
In this research, the author selected the topic of deixis due to challenges related to limited vocabulary when translating or selecting words in both written and spoken forms.
This limitation in vocabulary can lead to difficulties in understanding, reading, and translating meanings, as students may lack the motivation to learn new English words.
This often results in struggles with word choice during communication, as highlighted by Cruse .
, who discusses how communication and comprehension.
The writers have collected related studies done by preveous researchers dealing with deixis.
The first is a research conducted by students of IKIP Siliwangi.

tittled AuAn Analysis of Deixis Using AuBeauty And The Beast Movie ScriptAy, deixis is used to search for actions in a time frame relative to the present.
Therefore, deixis is one of a branch in linguistic that is part of pragmatics to refer to a meaning depending on the context, referenced by speakers and influenced by the conversation.
In their research, the writers aim at classifying the forms of deixis used on Beauty and The Beast movie to describe the types of deixis and the reference of person, spatial and temporal deixis used in that The second research written by Rebong & Nurma .
from Putera Batam University entitled AuDeixis Analysis Found in Bird Box MovieAy showed in the findings that deixis were used in the communication of the movie.
There were totally 34 deixis data in spatial deixis, temporal deixis, and person deixis.
16 were in spatial deixis, 12 data in person deixis, and 6 data in the temporal deixis.
The third research entitled AuAn Analysis of Deixis in Little Women Movie ScriptAy by students also from IKIP Siliwangi.
Rusmana and Syahrizal .
examined the analysis of personal deixis, place deixis, time deixis, and deixis discourse in the Little Women Movie Script.
In the movie.
Jo March and his sisters worked hard to stay together under any circumstances in their daily lives, only accompanied by his mother, with fathers who were far away on the battlefield volunteering.
Based on the explanation above, the authors aim to carry out research into AuSaltAy movie to raise awareness and offer more insights about deixis, and to motivate students to deepen their learning English through movies.
The authors analyzed five types of deixis: place deixis, person deixis, time deixis, social deixis, and discourse deixis to allow the study to make more detailed exploration of these areas, as supported by Fillmore .
, who explains the significance of these categories in understanding how language functions in context.
Review of Literature Pragmatics is a field within linguistics that focuses on the meaning of utterances.

March 2025 specific contexts, utterances are identified by the context in which they occur.
Pragmatics involves two types of inferences: implicature and Implicature refers to conveying one meaning by stating something else, while explicature deals with what is explicitly stated, often enhanced by contextual details.
Additionally, pragmatics addresses speech acts, where an individual expresses something that not only conveys information but also performs an Pragmatics studies how context influences meaning, particularly how sentences are interpreted within specific contexts.
Linguistic context refers to the discourse that comes before a sentence, helping to interpret its meaning, while situational context involves knowledge about the For instance, in the sentences "The kids have already eaten" and "Surprisingly, they are hungry," the first sentence provides linguistic context that aids in interpreting the second.
Yule .
in Cambridge Press.
Oxford Introductions to Language Study writes the study of pragmatics focuses on how both linguistic and situational contexts shape the interpretation of meaning, emphasizing the role of context in understanding what speakers intend to convey.
Further, he states that pragmatics is concerned with the study of meaning as communicated by a speaker .
writer and interpreted by listener .
r According to Griffiths .
, pragmatics is concerned with the interaction of semantic knowledge with our knowledge of the words, taking into account context of use.
From the theory of Griffiths above, we know that pragmatics is a part of semantic knowledge.
Unlike pragmatics, which studies utterance meaning, semantics deals with the meaning of linguistic forms and their relationships to entities.
It examines how words, phrases, and sentences convey meaning, based on their literal content rather than context.
Semantic meaning involves recognizing the meaning of More broadly, semantics encompasses the study of the meanings of words, phrases, and sentences (Yule 1.
Lexical semantics studies the meanings of words," with a particular emphasis on content words like "tiger," "of," and "than.
" This branch p-ISSN 2540-8216, e-ISSN 2654-3745 https://journal.
stibaiec-jakarta/ojs/index.
php/jell of semantics delves into how individual words convey meaning independently of their grammatical structure (Cruse 2.
He also explains that "grammatical semantics studies aspects of meaning which have direct relevance to syntax," highlighting how certain meanings are inherently tied to the structure and rules of In essence, lexical semantics focuses on understanding the meanings of words in isolation, while grammatical semantics explores how meanings interact with and influence the syntactic structure of sentences.
From Cruse's perspective, these two branches of semantics work together to provide a comprehensive understanding of how language conveys meaning, both through individual words and through the grammatical frameworks that connect them.
When we discuss about pragmatics, we come across a key concept called deixis.
Deixis is all about choosing the right words based on the context when we speak or write.
Words like "this," "that," "here," and "there" are examples of deictic expressionsAithey only make sense when we know the situation they're used in.
In English, understanding deixis helps us pick the correct words to match the circumstances, making sure our communication is clear and meaningful.
It's like a little language tool that helps us connect our words to the world around us.
Deixis, derived from the Greek word for "pointing," is also known as a deictic or indexical expression as (Yule 1.
said in Oxford Introductions to Language Study.
Deictic expression is the way for people to understand the reference of context of the utterance.
Cummings .
Deixis is the study of deictic or indexical expressions in language, like you, now, and It can be regarded as a special kind of grammatical property instantiated in the familiar categories of person, tense, place and so on Levinson .

The object of their research is deixis, and the subject is a CNN International In the research, they found the CNN article using types of deixis: the person, time, and The concept of deixis as also explained by Renkema .
, refers to linguistic elements that directly point to the context in which they are used, such as time, place, or person.
This is rooted in the Greek word for "to show" or "to indicate.
Renkema emphasizes the importance of understanding deixis because it helps bridge the gap between what the speaker and writer intends and how the listener or reader interprets the METHOD In this research, the authors adopt a qualitative method, which is distinct for its focus on gathering data through open-ended and conversational communication.
This approach allows the researchers to delve deeply into participants' experiences and perspectives, producing rich, descriptive outcomes.
Unlike quantitative methods, which often rely on numerical data, qualitative research seeks to explore the underlying meanings and interpretations of social phenomena.
This method is particularly effective in contexts where the goal is to understand complex human behaviors and interactions in a detailed and nuanced manner.
Qualitative research is well-suited for studies that aim to construct a holistic understanding of social or human issues.
As Creswell .
describes, qualitative research is "an inquiry process of understanding a social or human problem, based on building a complex, holistic picture, formed with words, reporting detailed views of informants, and conducted in a natural " This approach is further supported by Denzin and Lincoln .
, who argue that qualitative research is inherently interpretative, requiring the researcher to be sensitive to the context in which data is collected.
The natural setting of the research allows for a more authentic collection of data, leading to conclusions that are often straightforward and directly linked to the data gathered.

To conduct this study effectively, the authors utilized a range of methods to collect data and perform a comprehensive analysis.
This involved treating the movie and its script as primary sources and drawing on additional resources like textbooks, articles, journals, reviews, and relevant websites as secondary sources.
The authors followed a systematic process to collect the data.
Initially, the movie Salt was watched online, and the script was located and selected from internet sources.
The script was then downloaded, and the words were organized based on the content of the script.
Finally, the authors analyzed the data to identify deixis within the material.

Person deixis, which includes pronouns like "I," "you," and "they," is essential for establishing character relationships and guiding the audienceAos understanding of who is involved in the dialogue, making it a central element in the script's narrative structure.
Based on the findings above, it can be concluded for the total first person deixis are 649 data or 76 percent of person deixis.
Second person deixis are 48 data or 7 percent of person deixis and the third person deixis are 279 data or 42 percent of person deixis and spatial deixis or deixis place are 66 data or 7 percent.
Temporal deixis or deixis time are 29 data or 3 percent.

It is related to Lyons .
, deixis is the location and identification of people, object, events, process and activities which is being talked about or referred to, in relation to the time, when the speaker says the utterance, or when the hearer hears it.
In the conclusion above, the analysis of deixis in the Salt movie script directed by Phillip Noyce identifies various types of deixis: person deixis, spatial deixis, social deixis, temporal deixis, and discourse deixis.
Person deixis includes the first person "I," the second person "you," and the third person "we.
" Spatial deixis indicates location, such as "here" and "there," while temporal deixis refers to time, such as "now" and "tomorrow.
Understanding deixis contextually helps to grasp the meaning within the language used.
The analysis shows that person deixis appears most frequently at 76%, followed by spatial deixis at 18%, and temporal deixis at 4%.
Overall, pragmatics is closely linked to context and deixis, as the use of deixis can convey implicit meanings to the listener.
