“…Pragmatics is the study of the external structure of meaning in language, or how a linguistic unit is put to use in actual conversation. According to Yule (1996)Pragmatics is the study of how language is used in real-world situations, which is primarily influenced by the context that language exists within.…”

The purpose of this research is to find out the types of impoliteness used by the characters in the movie "inside out". then, the researcher used the theory from Culpeper (2011)to analyze the data. the data source was found from the speakers and hearers in the movie "inside out". to provide research results, researchers used a research design in the form of descriptive qualitative. The research design used by researchers comes from Creswell (2009). for data collection, researchers used the observational method by Sudaryanto (2015). data collection techniques carried out by researchers, namely, first the researcher watched the film "inside out". second, the researcher reads the transcript and looks at the context to be analyzed. third, the researcher finally found the types of impoliteness that occur between the characters in the movie "inside out". Thus, the researcher can find 13 utterances that contain types of impoliteness. utterances that contain types of impoliteness are used by speakers and listeners in the film "inside out", with the discovery of 8 forms of coercive impoliteness, affective impoliteness, and entertaining impoliteness.

“…Most young speakers employ solidarity or closeness overlap as a function of language to communicate solidarity or intimacy when expressing it, or as a highly valuable togetherness value between them. Sometimes the overlapped conversation of younger speakers looks to be a show of solidarity or closeness of view on similar topics (Yule, 1996). Aside from the fact that overlap conveys proximity, the speakers may appear to be conversing, but they are contending for the floor (Yule, 1996).…”

When this happens, the speakers appear to be conversing normally, but they are battling for the right to talk.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic is thought to have changed the way people communicate in society. It has ushered in a new way of living that is fully conducted online. It urges this study to concentrate on examining online communications, particularly men's and women's online casual conversations. The qualitative approach was employed to accomplish this. Three basic processes were carried out in greater depth. The first step was to tape the dialogue, which was transcribed using the theory of Eggins & Slade (1997). To strengthen the data, an unstructured interview was conducted (Mackey & Gass, 2005). Finally, to expose the phenomenon of overlap, the data were evaluated using theories proposed by numerous experts, such as Schegloff (2000), Cogo & Dewey (2012), Yule (1996), and many more. The results were afterward developed into rich verbal descriptions. Analysis shows that men's and women's online casual conversations have different patterns of overlap. This can happen because of the influence of what they have received throughout their lives about how to be a man and a woman. The gender values they get from their environment greatly affect how they communicate and interact with others.

“…At its core, the concept of implication is defined as any (un)purposeful flouting of any of the four main maxims (quality, quantity, relation, manner) of Cooperative Principle of communication (Levinson 1983, Grice 1991, Blakemore 1992, Yule 1996, Davis 1998, Cruse 2000, Portner 2006, Widdowson 2007, Spencer-Oatey & Zegarac 2010, Thomas 2013. The view that the Gricean account of implication is a watertight and final take on implication started to be called into question by degrees, especially through the ground-breaking entry of Sperber and Wilson's (1995) more cognitively oriented and introspective-sounding Relevance Theory onto the scene, singling out relation (relevance) as pretty much everything ostensive communication needs to account for (the other three maxims not being needed).…”

Inspired by the cognitive approach to characterisation and in view of relevance theory, this research attempted to outline a relevance-theoretic account of how affective attachment between fictional characters influences writers’ use of implicata through characters as part of inter-character discourse by defining cognitive processes into fictional characters as a pivotal element of implicit characterisation. Our attempt addressed the veracity of such an influence and the question whether awareness of the intensity degree of such sentimentality influences readers’ non-spontaneous interpretation of character-generated implicata and characters’ intention to actually execute relevant implicating. By adherence to defining cognitive processes into character discourse, we conducted an analysis on six samples of implicata exchanges within inter-character verbal discourse between the mutual parties of the primary affective attachment of the narrative, between the protagonist and another round character out of Stephenie Meyer’s ‘Twilight’ and Veronica Roth’s ‘Divergent’. In every instance of character-generated implication, we found decisive facilitatory influence for awareness of three levels of calculable implicated conclusions, inter-character sentiment intensity, and characters’ communicative intents on readers' achieving what Furlong terms ‘maximal relevance’ through non-spontaneous interpretation of literary texts. Additionally, tracking the progression of inter-character sentiment intensity throughout the two narratives yielded strategic drops during the gradual formation of inter-character bonds employed mainly to demonstrate a mutual sense of fastidiousness in characters’ choice of a companion in romance and also strengthening the said bonds.
