N2  - Diction is the important thing to be considered when people want to get
the successful communication. It refers to the right choices of the words that
exactly represent what the speaker wants to say. This research is aimed to
investigate Barack Obama?s diction through his first inaugural speech in 2009. In
doing this goal, two research questions are formulated; they are (1) How is the
diction in Barack Obama?s 2009 inaugural speech?; and (2) How does the diction
in Barack Obama?s 2009 inaugural speech affect the audiences? It is a qualitative
descriptive research. The writer applies the theory of diction, figurative language
and rhetorical devices.
The result of this research shows that Obama often uses the connotative
words in his speech. Further, Obama also uses some figurative languages and
rhetorical devices to make his speech more attractive and the message of his
speech be accepted well by the audiences. The use of Obama?s special diction
gives effect toward the audience. The effects are the audiences get more
understanding since Obama?s metaphorical words give the emphasis in his
speech; the audience can be aware of the meaning of the sentence and get the
lesson from it without being dictated; and the they can accept the real message
without being offended.
