Abstract

The film Dora and the Lost City of Gold is a film adaptation of the cartoon Dora the Explorer. The film, which of course has a longer duration than the cartoon version, shows details that are not used in the cartoon, such as a more detailed storyline and the expressions of each character. This research aims to reveal the various expressions used by the main character Dora in the film Dora and the Lost City of Gold. So, this research focuses on 2 two problem formulations (1) What types of expressive speech acts does Dora use in the film 'Dora and the lost city of gold'?
