Abstract

People frequently sing in everyday situations, especially in English. However, singing is notoriously difficult to pronounce and interpret musically. Researchers used qualitative research for this study. This study aims to explain the significance of linguistic style in the lyrics to Adele's song Easy on Me. The language style utilized in the lyrics of Adele's song "Easy on Me" was investigated by the researchers. In order to acquire new vocabulary for educational purposes, the researchers themselves employed research sheets and documentation in comparison to the indicated sheets of documentation, processing verbal data to derive the closest meaning. Five different linguistic styles were identified by the researchers in Adele's lyrics for "Easy on Me": four linguistic discoveries personified, the metonymy of 2 findings, the symbol of 8 linguistic styles, the litotes of 5 linguistic style, the hyperbole of 3 findings in it, and more meaning in each lyrics. There are several reasons why the songwriter uses so many "symbol" expressions in making this song: it's used to indicate positive emotions because the words used trigger sadness to make megalithic what the singer feels.
