Based on the analysis, this study found that the kinds of swear words in this movie are classified into six groups such as profanity or blasphemy, cursing, vulgarity, obscenity, epithet, insult or slurs, and scatology. Then, Mike utters the swear words in five ways: descriptively, idiomatically, abusively, emphatically, and cathartically. Those ways lead to the functions, such as, interjection (surprise, pain, fear, anger, disappointment, even joy), emphasizers (after interrogative WH- word), and expletive slot fillers (as degreeof adverbs or intensifying adjectives).

Penelitian ini menganalisis munculnya kata-kata umpatan dalam film Bad Boys II yang diucapkan oleh Mike Lawrey sebagai karakter utama. Penggunaan kata-kata umpatan mengungkapkan pikiran dan perasaan pembicara. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengamati bagaimana Mike Lawrey menggunakan kata-kata umpatan saat berbicara dalam film. Oleh karena itu, masalah dirumuskan sebagai berikut: 1. Apa saja jenis kata-kata umpatan yang diucapkan oleh Mike Lawrey dalam film Bad Boys II oleh Michael Bay? 2. Bagaimana cara Mike Lawrey mengekspresikan kata-kata umpatan dalam film Bad Boy II oleh Michael Bay? Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis isi. Subyek penelitian dalam penelitian ini adalah naskah film Bad Boys II. Beberapa buku yang relevan terkait dengan beberapa teori seperti pragmatik, dan sejarah kata-kata umpatan digunakan sebagai referensi untuk menjawab rumusan masalah. Di samping itu, penelitian ini menjelaskan tentang gaya bahasa orang-orang Afrika-Amerika secara singkat karena tokoh utama dari film ini adalah seorang Afrika-Amerika. Hal ini juga menjadi alasan mengapa film ini menggunakan umpatan sebagai gaya berkomunikasi. Berdasarkan hasil analisis, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa jenis kata- kata umpatan dalam film ini dikelompokkan dalam enam kelompok seperti senonoh atau hujatan, mengutuk, vulgar, cabul, julukan, menghina atau penghinaan, dan scatology. Kemudian, Mike mengucapkan kata-kata umpatan dalam lima cara: secara deskriptif, ideomatik, melecehkan, menegaskan, dan katarsis. Cara-cara tersebut mengarah pada fungsi seperti: sebagai kata seru (kejutan, saat kesakitan, takut, marah, kecewa, bahkan sukacita), penekanan (setelah interogatif WH), dan pengisi slot yang ekspletif (sebagai keterangan atau kata sifat intensif). Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat menjadi referensi yang baik untuk pelajar agar mereka dapat mengetahui lebih lanjut tentang penggunaan umpatan dalam komunikasi sehari-hari. Dengan demikian, mereka dapat menggunakan umpatan dengan benar dalam situasi di mana mereka bisa menggunakan kata-kata tersebut.
