This research is a sociolinguistic study focusing on movie language styles. This research aims to analyze the language styles of the Mulan 2020 movie and identify the context of the dominant language style used in the film. The researchers conducted this study using a descriptive qualitative method. This research involves multiple stages, including repeatedly watching the film to comprehend its content by concentrating on character dialogues and situational contexts. Subsequently, the researchers categorized the data for further analysis and adopts the applicable theory. This research uses the theory of language style from Martin Joos. The results of this study found four language styles with 74 data points, namely seven data points of the frozen style, thirty-nine data points of the formal style, twenty-three data points of the casual style, and five data points of the intimate style. The contextual use of this dominant language style is also diverse and often occurs in military situations, royal areas, formal situations, situations between Mulan and Xianniang as protagonists and antagonists, and informal situations. The use of this predominant language style generally serves the movies storyline. These findings imply the influence of culture and social status on the prevalence of formal language styles in historically developed Asian movies, which serve functions outside formal situations.

Based on the research question guiding this study, we examine the language style in the Mulan 2020 movie and draw this conclusion.Referring to Martin Joos theory, seventy-four data points were identified, representing four types of language styles used in the movie—frozen, formal, casual, and intimate—with the formal language style being the most dominant (thirty-nine data points).This dominant formal style appears in various contexts and is most frequently used in military situations, royal settings, and other serious contexts.Furthermore, it is also employed to enhance dramatic effects in specific scenes, such as the conversation between Mulan and Xianniang, and occasionally it even appears in informal situations.

Berdasarkan penelitian ini, terdapat beberapa saran penelitian lanjutan yang dapat dikembangkan. Pertama, penelitian selanjutnya dapat mengeksplorasi pengaruh faktor-faktor psikologis, seperti emosi dan kepribadian karakter, terhadap pilihan gaya bahasa yang digunakan dalam film. Hal ini dapat memberikan pemahaman yang lebih mendalam tentang bagaimana karakter menggunakan bahasa untuk mengekspresikan diri dan berinteraksi dengan karakter lain. Kedua, penelitian dapat memperluas analisis gaya bahasa ke berbagai genre film, tidak hanya film drama sejarah seperti Mulan. Dengan membandingkan gaya bahasa yang digunakan dalam genre yang berbeda, peneliti dapat mengidentifikasi pola-pola umum dan perbedaan yang signifikan. Ketiga, penelitian dapat menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif untuk melengkapi analisis kualitatif yang telah dilakukan. Misalnya, peneliti dapat menghitung frekuensi penggunaan setiap gaya bahasa dalam film dan menguji hubungan antara gaya bahasa dengan variabel lain, seperti usia karakter atau status sosial.
