“…As for male products, diction is associated with the general characteristics of active men.

The research aims to describe the selection and use of vocabulary, the use of word morphological and syntactical aspects and the use of figurative language, especially the speech of the Monster Inc movie’s actors. This study used the descriptive qualitative method. The data was taken from the movie of Monster Inc. The data was analyzed based on Miles’ theory, namely data condensation, data display and drawing a conclusion. The results show that non-standard words, informal, showing stronger impressions, and emphasizing certain information tend to use in the movie. Morphologically aspect, words are used in the form of reduplication of words and phrases to emphasize what is being conveyed. Also, it was found that there is no affixation, reduplication, or compounding. Furthermore, syntactically aspect, most sentences are delivered in interrogative sentences, command clauses, complete sentences, exclamations, incomplete sentences, informative sentences, complete informational sentences, ungrammatical sentences, and complex sentences. The last figurative language used in several scenes is idiomatic phrases, metaphors, personification, and similes.

The ekphrasis of Herakles’ shield in Pseudo-Hesiod’s Aspis comprises an immersive experiment in the poetics of sound. As complement to the standard modes of visualization that are crucial to effective ekphrasis, this poem’s rich soundscape invites the audience to ‘auralize’ the sounds described by the internal observer. From the monstrous noises emitted from the shield’s iconographic world to the overdetermined correspondence of sonic features within and between narrative levels, the acoustic techniques of this poem actively destabilize traditional archaic modes of constructing and shattering ekphrastic illusion. As sound effects undermine the notion that materiality must serve as an index of iconographic fixity, and as lexical and semantic recursions echo across representational planes, the poem’s unruly acoustics ultimately problematize the relationship between the world of the shield and the world of its wielder.
