Abstract

The study focuses on Politeness Principle found in the movie Kung Fu Panda 1 using Leech’s theory.Leech defines politeness as forms of behaviour that establish and maintain comity. He proposed six types of politeness maxim such as tact maxim, generosity maxim, approbation maxim, modesty maxim, agreement maxim, and sympathy maxim. The objectives of this study are to classify the type of politeness maxim used in the movie, to know the frequency of the most and the least maxim used in the movie, and to explain how the figures in the movie used politeness principle in the communication.The writers used descriptive analysis in analyzing the politeness principle used in the movie and used a simple quantitative analysis to know the frequency of the politeness principle. The result of the study shows that all politeness maxim is used in the movie with the frequency tact maxim 10 utterances (9,8%), generosity maxim 5 utterances (4,9%), approbation maxim 24 utterances (23,5%), modesty maxim 11 utterances (10,8%), agreement maxim 45 utterances (44,1%), and sympathy maxim 7 utterances (6,9%).Keywords: Pragmatics, Politeness principle, Movie.
语用学研究中礼貌原则的再思考
本研究以电影《功夫熊猫1》中的礼貌原则为研究对象,运用Leech的理论。Leech将礼貌定义为建立和维持礼让的行为形式。他提出了六种礼貌准则,即机智准则、慷慨准则、赞许准则、谦虚准则、同意准则和同情准则。本研究的目的是对电影中使用的礼貌格言类型进行分类,了解电影中使用最多和最少的格言的频率,并解释电影中的人物如何在交际中使用礼貌原则。作者在分析电影中使用的礼貌原则时采用了描述性分析,并使用了简单的定量分析来了解礼貌原则的使用频率。研究结果表明,所有礼貌格言在电影中的使用频率分别为机智格言10次(9.8%)、慷慨格言5次(4.9%)、赞许格言24次(23.5%)、谦虚格言11次(10.8%)、认同格言45次(44.1%)、同情格言7次(6.9%)。关键词:语用学,礼貌原则,电影
