Abstract

This study investigates men's language features proposed by Coates (2004) in Carol Danvers’ utterances as the main character in Captain Marvel: 2019 movie. Besides, this study also investigated language function by Jakobson (1960) theory, and contextual situations based on Hymes’ (2001) theory. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach that explains the data being studied. The researcher has collected the data by identifying the conversation of Carol Danvers through the script of Captain Marvel: 2019 movie, which contains men's language features. Then, the researcher also identified the language function. The researcher then analyzed the contextual situation to determine the factors that influenced Carol Danvers to use men's language features and specific functions. The study results reveal that Carol Danvers uses all types of men language features: topic choice, monologues and playing the expert, questions to seek information, verbal sparring, and turn-taking. The most frequent men language features used by Carol Danvers are questions. Carol Danvers uses questions to dig up information she does not know. Moreover, this study also found all types of language functions. The language functions are referential, emotive, conative, metalingual, poetic, and phatic. This study reveals that Carol Danvers uses men's language features and functions with different meanings and purposes. From the results of the study, the researcher gained new knowledge that Coates' (2004) theory regarding language features in each gender should be reviewed again considering that technological developments can affect the use of language in each individual.
