  • 摘要:This paper is aimed at exploring types of figurative language in songs in Senior High School Student’s English textbook. Students of English need to understand the figurative language in songs in order to learn English by using song lyrics. Qualitative analysis was done to three songs in Student’s Book 2 for Senior High School Students Grade XI. The current paper reports on the findings on four types of figurative language, namely: simile, metaphor, personification, and hyperbole. To examine the data, the researchers listened to each song three times, identified the types of figurative language that were used in the songs, and then analyzed the identified figurative language. Results showed that the three analyzed songs, namely “Flashlight”, “See You Again”, and “Hall of Fame” contained three types of figurative language, namely: metaphors, hyperboles, and personifications. The findings are expected to be beneficial for English teachers and designers of English learning materials, in teaching and designing English learning material. Hopefully, more attention can be paid to figurative language in English songs in textbooks.
