The Study of Code-Switching in Quentin Tarantino’s Movie: Inglourious Basterds. Yogyakarta: English Language Education Study Program, Department of Language and Arts Education, Faculty of Teachers Training and Education, Sanata Dharma University. Code-switching is a sociolinguistic phenomenon which commonly happens in our daily lives. It is a condition where someone switches from one language or simply one code to another intentionally or unconsciously. Code- switching might happen in a bilingual or multilingual society because sometimes people find difficulties to say something in their native languages when there are no certain words or utterances which match what they aim to say. Code-switching is also commonly found in several mass media and entertainment, such as in the movies. This research analyzes the code-switching phenomenon in Quentin Tarantino’s movie entitled Inglourious Basterds. There were two research questions to be answered in this research. They were 1) what are the types of code-switching done by the characters in Quentin Tarantino’s movie Inglourious Basterds? and 2) why do the characters in Quentin Tarantino’s movie Inglourious Basterds use code-switching? The method used to answer those two research questions was descriptive qualitative method. The researcher used document analysis technique to analyze the data. The primary instrument was the researcher. The steps in conducting the research were choosing the suitable movie, making the transcript of the movie, listing the conversations containing code-switching phenomenon in the movie, analyzing the types of code-switching found in the movie, analyzing the possible reasons for code-switching in the movie, and drawing the conclusions. Based on the findings, there were 47 cases of code-switching occurrences in the movie Inglourious Basterds. The most frequent type of code-switching found in the movie was inter-sentential situational code-switching. The most frequent reason for code-switching phenomenon found in the movie was code- switching to talk to a certain participant. Code-switching is a common linguistics phenomenon in our society. Understanding the meaning and the appropriate usage of code-switching can help people to learn and improve language skills. People will be able to understand the meaning behind code-switching phenomenon uttered by other speakers and to use code-switching in the appropriate term and condition.

The Study of Code-Switching in Quentin Tarantino’s Movie: Inglourious Basterds. Yogyakarta: Program Studi Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris, Jurusan Pendidikan Bahasa dan Seni, Fakultas Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan, Universitas Sanata Dharma Alih kode merupakan fenomena sosiolinguistik yang umum terjadi di masyarakat. Alih kode merupakan suatu keadaan dimana seseorang merubah bahasa atau kode mereka dari yang satu ke yang lain dengan sengaja atau tanpa disadari. Alih kode dapat terjadi di masyarakat dwibahasa atau multibahasa karena terkadang seseorang mengalami kesulitan untuk menyatakan sesuatu dalam bahasa asli mereka ketika tidak dapat menemukan pernyataan yang sesuai dengan apa yang ingin mereka utarakan. Alih kode juga sering ditemukan dalam media masa dan hiburan, seperti dalam film. Penelitian ini menganalisa fenomena alih kode di dalam film karya Quentin Tarantino yang berjudul Inglourious Basterds. Terdapat dua buah pertanyaan yang akan dijawab dalan penelitian ini 1) tipe alih kode apa saja yang terdapat di film karya Quentin Tarantino yang berjudul Inglourious Basterds? dan 2) mengapa karakter di film karya Quentin Tarantino yang berjudul Inglourious Basterds menggulakan alih kode? Metode yang digunakan untuk menjawab kedua pertanyaan tersebut adalah metode penelitian deskriptif kualitatif. Peneliti menggunakan teknik analisis dokumen untuk menganalisa data yang telah terkumpul. Instrumen utama merupakan peneliti sendiri. Beberapa langkah yang dilakukan peneliti adalah memilih film yang tepat untuk penelitian ini, membuat transkrip film, mendata kalimat percakapan yang menguandung unsur alih kode, menganalisa tipe alih kode apa saja yang terdapat dalam film, menganalisa alasan alih kode apa saja yang terdapat dalam film, dan menyusun kesimpulan. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, terdapat 47 kasus alih kode di dalam film Inglourious Basterds. Tipe alih kode yang paling banyak ditemui adalah inter- sentential situational code-switching. Alasan alih kode yang paling banyak ditemui di dalam film adalah alih kode untuk berbicara dengan orang tertentu. Alih kode merupakan fenomena kebahasaan yang umum di masyarakat. Memahami pengertian dan penggunaan alih kode secara tepat dapat membantu mempelajari dan meningkatkan kemampuan berbahasa. Kita akan mampu memahami arti dibalik fenomena alih kode seseorang dan cara menggunakan alih kode yang sesuai.

  • INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS) - MASTER MATRIX Features
    Work Package 2 Text analysis and development WP Leader: Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona Anna Maszerowska Anna Matamala Pilar Orero Date: 8/2/2013 This project has been funded with support from the European Commission. This report reflects the views only of the author, and the Commission cannot be held responsible for any use which may be made of the information contained therein. Work Package 2 Deliverable 1. Introduction After gathering all the information regarding user needs, and detailed information abut audio description in Europe from WP1. This WP expects to go beyond that which has already been investigated, but only partially answered, with regard to What can be described? What should be described – scenes, characters, plot? What should not be described? How objective should the description be? What register of language should be adopted on what occasions? Thus the early objective, having taken stock of all that is valid in the current situation across Europe, in this WP we go further into the questions raised above and find criteria that will be useful across all language combinations and all kinds of material to be described ranging from film to opera to live events such as royal weddings. The use of eye-tracking technology, psychological studies and systemic linguistic investigation are examples of the kind of innovative approaches that will be brought to bear. Under WP2 (text analysis and development) all partners carried out extensive text analysis on a unique text. This is the first deviation from the original project proposal approved. After much debate amongst partners in face to face meetings (Munich March 2012) and the weekly online meetings (Mondays) it was decided to look for one common text which may contain most genres and problems.

  • Inglourious Primates: Grandes Símios Entre O Objeto
    “INGLOURIOUS PRIMATES”: GRANDES SÍMIOS ENTRE O OBJETO, O MODELO E O OUTRO DO HUMANO 1 Beto Vianna (UFMG, Brasil) - [email protected] Rubén Gómez-Soriano (UAM, Espanha) - [email protected] Resumo A primatologia é uma disciplina desenvolvida, voltada para o estudo de uma só ordem zoológica. O grupo estudado faz jus ao nome Primata, “principal”, em deferência ao humano. Exatamente por seu membro ilustre, no entanto, os primatas não-humanos perdem como objetos de inquirição na razão direta de sua valorização como modelos de nossa espécie. Os grandes símios (gorilas, chimpanzés, bonobos e orangotangos) são um caso limite da atenção ao humano pelo caminho da primatologia. Nossos parentes mais próximos tornam-se o outro natural na definição de uma natureza humana, ou operadores antropológicos de identidade (Despret, 2006). No discurso e na prática científica, grandes símios podem ser, a um só tempo, símiles fisiológicos do humano e, cognitivamente, uma versão imperfeita de nós mesmos. Essa dupla condição traz implicações distintas segundo o quadro conceitual, as condições experimentais, o contexto sócio-histórico e as relações particulares estabelecidas entre o símio o observador humano em cada investigação. Neste trabalho, analisamos contextos experimentais e teóricos que oferecem distintas versões dos grandes símios, implicando versões correspondentes do humano. Uma maneira de repensarmos a agência dos seres vivos envolvidos e as relações co-constituintes entre grande simios e humanos, a partir do conceito de antropozoogênese (Despret, 2004b). Palavras-chave: primatologia, grandes símios, antropozoogênese Introdução Na cena inicial de Inglourious Basterds , de Quentin Tarantino (2009), o coronel da Schutzstaffel (a SS), Hans Landa, interroga o fazendeiro francês Perrier LaPadite sobre uma família judia suspeita de esconder-se em sua casa.

  • Quentin Tarantino, 'Inglourious Basterds'
    H-German Nichols on Director: Quentin Tarantino, 'Inglourious Basterds' Review published on Wednesday, October 21, 2009 Director: Quentin Tarantino. Inglourious Basterds. Miramax, 2009. Distributed by the Weinstein Company (US) and Universal Pictures (International). Film. Rated R for strong graphic violence, language and brief sexuality. Running time: 153 minutes. Reviewed by Bradley Nichols (University of Tennessee-Knoxville) Published on H-German (October, 2009) Commissioned by Benita Blessing Inglorious Vengeance Fantasies Few films offer the same controversial, radical reinterpretation of the historical-war film as Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds, a masterfully entertaining, tragicomic satire on the nature of group hatred and violence. Set in Nazi-occupied France during the Second World War, the film follows a group of Jewish American soldiers, "the basterds," as they rampage throughout the countryside led by Lt. Aldo Raines (Brad Pitt), killing and mutilating German soldiers. Engaged in a secret plot to kill Hitler, the basterds cross paths with Shosanna Dreyfus (Mélanie Laurent), a French-Jewish girl in hiding, who is seeking vengeance on the Nazis after the murder of her family by brutal SS Colonel Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz). When Shosanna strikes up a reluctant acquaintance with Pvt. Fredrick Zoller (Daniel Brühl), a famous German war hero, the latter convinces Josef Goebbels to screen the premiere of his new propaganda film depicting Zoller's adventures in the Paris movie theater she operates. The stage is thus set for the separate machinations of Shosanna and the basterds to come to fruition in a spectacularly violent penultimate scene, in which they murder Adolf Hitler, Josef Goebbels, and a score of other Nazi luminaries during the premiere of the film within the film.

The inclusion of one or several languages other than English can be problematic for dubbing URI: https://id.erudit.org/iderudit/045687ar translators when the films is exported. The comparison between the original DOI: https://doi.org/10.7202/045687ar version of Inglourious Basterds and its French dubbed version offered in this article brings to light a number of translation issues. The idea of the codified relationship with the audience leads us to explore notions of conventions, See table of contents contrivances, and suspension of disbelief, whether in the native language or original subtitling included in the American version. Dubbing is not only translating, it raises the issue of the texture of the original voices, especially in Publisher(s) a film preoccupied with accents.

    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study People always interact with his or her society in their whole life. So they always face problems. People have their own way to solve their problems both internal and external. In some case, they cannot solve their problem as it is clueless, so anxiety begins up. Anxiety as one of the psychological problems can occur when people who have problem cannot overcome it. This happens because there is pressure from the society. Then they cannot express their own feeling or even speak up. People express their anxiety through their body language such as sweaty, quick heart-beating or even they cannot control behave when they acting and their tongue when they are speaking. Anxiety represents a repetition of the earlier traumatic experience, but in miniature form in the represent has relation to an earlier danger because it does not recall. When the individual feel threatened with being overwhelmed by impulses, it results anxiety. Generally an individual gives way action to the unpleasant feeling and destructive instinct that never happen before and it becomes an anxiety. Pervin states that “basically anxiety develops out of a conflict between the push of the Id instinct and the threat of punishment by the superego” (Pervin, 1970: 80). Hall and Lindzey states “It can disturb as well 1 as comfort and satisfy, and when we are not prepared to cope with threats, we may become afraid or anxious However, anxiety is an interesting object not only for psychoanalyst or author of novel but also for movie director.
