Abstract :
Communication is one of the things that are crucial in daily life. The aim of communication is to
convey information or messages between speakers and listeners in a certain way. Information can
be conveyed implicitly through a conversation, which is known in pragmatics as a conversational
implicature. This research aims to classify the types of conversational implicatures in movie scripts
and analyze the context behind the use of these types of conversational implicatures in the
utterances produced by the characters. The theories used in analyzing utterances are conversational
implicature, which has two types: generalized conversational implicature, and particularized
conversational implicature. This research uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive qualitative
method that aims to provide descriptive data analysis results. The object of this study is the movie
script "To All the Boys I've Loved Before" (2018), written by Sofia Alvarez. The data for this
research is collected through several steps, including watching movies and reading the film script
"To All the Boys I've Loved Before" (2018), taking note of utterances in accordance with
conversational implicature, and sorting the data in accordance with the type of conversational
implicature. The results of this study indicate that there are 42 types of conversational implicatures
in the film, which are classified into 20 generalized conversational implicatures and 22
particularized conversational implicatures. Particularized conversational implicature is used more
than generalized conversational implicature in this data.
