An Analysis of Pragmatic Semantics of Second Person Deixis in the Play ‘Visit to a Small Planet’ by Gore Vidal

Deixis is the study which refers that words in a language are wholly dependent to its context. It stresses that clearance of context is quite important to derive exact meanings. Relying on the former studies this study is stemmed on the analysis of pragmatic semantics of second person deixis in the play ‘Visit to a Small Planet’ by ‘Gore Vidal’. In present research, the researcher used the research method which was projected by (Miller, 2018). He divided the methodology into three steps: collection of the data, analysis of the data, and presenting the result of the analysis. The researcher also used the notes-taking technique to explain second person deixis. It was descriptive research based on qualitative method in which observation was used as a tool to make analysis. The results have pedagogical implications as well.

Abstract

Deixis is the study which refers that words in a language are wholly dependent to its context. It stresses that clearance of context is quite important to derive exact meanings. Relying on the former studies this study is stemmed on the analysis of pragmatic semantics of second person deixis in the play ‘Visit to a Small Planet’ by ‘Gore Vidal’. In present research, the researcher used the research method which was projected by (Miller, 2018). He divided the methodology into three steps: collection of the data, analysis of the data, and presenting the result of the analysis. The researcher also used the notes-taking technique to explain second person deixis. It was descriptive research based on qualitative method in which observation was used as a tool to make analysis. The results have pedagogical implications as well.
