Abstract :
Deixis refers to a Greek word; shows through language what the speaker means to
the interlocutor. There are shows or point outs that can be divided into several
categories; people deixis, temporal deixis, spatial deixis, social deixis, discourse
deixis. This study aims to find 5 types of deixis and find out the meaning of
references according to the deixis theory of Alan Cruse (2000). This study uses
data from 6 Selena Gomez songs from the album Revival. The research method
used in this research is descriptive qualitative where the researcher describes the
types of deixis after listening to and reading the lyrics of the songs in the album.
The results of this study the researchers found that there are 5 types of deixis in 6
Selena Gomez's songs from the album Revival and these songs not only have
meanings about love but also about real life. After completing this research, the
researcher would like to give advice to English students; Deixis is a small part of
pragmatic studies, but to add insight to students about forms of deixis it is
necessary to do it because the scope of simple deixis is an important setting in
speech situations.
