📄 Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine three varieties of deixis and determine the most preval_____ent type of deixis in Ernest Hemingway's short tale, The Old Man and The Sea, as well as its use for teaching reading. The researcher chooses a short tale from Ernest Hemingway's "Старик и море" as the focus of the study because it is written in English. It is a well-known short narrative in which deictic words have reference meanings. Because the data in this study is in the form of words or utterances, the researcher employs a qualitative approach to assess the deixis in the short narrative. The researcher then uses a descriptive explanation to describe the data. Following data collection, the researcher eval_____uates the data, which includes three types of deixis. According to the data analysis, there are 188 diacriticals. The researcher discovered 164 utterances (87%) for person deixis, including 76 words of first-person deixis, 51 words of second-person deixis, 37 words of third-person deixis, 12 words of place deixis (6.5%), and 12 words of time deixis (6.5%). The teacher can use short stories written by Ernest Hemingway to show an example of some expression to make the lesson interesting and enjoyable. Finally, the researcher applied the result of this study for teaching reading.
