Abstract

This research is entitled An Analysis of Implicit Referential Meanings in The “Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows” Novel. This research aims to determine the implicit referential meanings by their types. The purpose of this research is (1) to be more sensitive to the meaning that is not implied in the sentence because it’s not expressed and showing in direct way. (2) Implicit meaning can be harder to find then the explicit meaning. To make it easy, we can look at the, what the character said, what the character does, what others say about them and how others react to them. A descriptive qualitative method of research was employed in this case. The researchers used Larson, Paltridge, and Baker theory to analyze the data. 1) The implicit referential meanings found in "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" are as follows: The research results show Persona an is a reference to it. reference that serves as an illustration (3) a comparison of two things. 2) The way how to realized the implicit referential meanings are : look at the words what are they identify for by the situation, by the topic they talking about, based on the character, the subject, the object and the dialogue. When a word in a text makes an anaphoric reference to another idea in the text, we say that the word has a double meaning. When a word refers to later ideas in a text, it's called a cataphoric reference. When a word or phrase makes an exophoric reference to something outside the discourse, it's called an exophoric reference.
