The title of the song lyrics is "Maona Original Soundtracks." Word has different meaning between lexical and contextual. In the study of context, a word has a meaning that is inappropriate if it is interpreted lexically. The meaning of a word also depends on the context of the situation and also the context of culture (Ardhyanti & Supriyatiningsih, 2020; Noviani & Bram, 2021). This is often referred to as contextual meaning. In 2013 Curriculum, senior high school students who take the English Language and Literature class will get additional material related to literature, one of which is to understand English song. To understand the information being transmitted in a song’s lyrics, all the words and phrases must be grasped (Oktariani et al., 2018; Yastanti & Setiawati, 2018). Contextual meaning is connected to song lyrics because singers occasionally employ terms that that different meanings from their dictionary definitions (Mamun et al., 2022; ; Miarsih et al., 2018; Murodi et al., 2021), making them difficult to interpret (Wijayanti et al., 2022) and can also create various meanings (Pasisingi et al., 2022). Abstract: This research aims to analyze song lyrics containing lexical and contextual meanings in the title of “Moana Original Soundtrack.". There are three research questions such as; 1.What is the form of lexical meaning in the song lyrics? .2. What is the form of contextual meanings found in the song lyrics? 3. How is the implementation of lexical and contextual meanings for teaching purposes, particularly for teaching reading skills? Researchers used a qualitative descriptive method to conduct the study. The data sources of this research were the song lyrics of "Moana Original Soundtrack.”. Researchers’ chose five lyrics taken from internet social media. Procedures concerning to the data collection and organizations are such as; first, researchers read and comprehension of song lyrics. Second, researchers identified the words, phrases, and sentences containing lexical and contextual meaning. The third, researchers conducted coding and interpreting lexical and contextual meaning found in the song lyrics of Maona Original Soundtrck.

Furthermore, texts of song lyrics containing lexical and contextual meaning can be use as a teaching material for critical reading skills. Keywords: contextual; lexical; meaning; pedagogical implication; song lyrics. Sudar, Tusino, & Beta Radish Charica Dewi Lexical and contextual meanings in song lyrics” Moana Original Soundtrack”: Pedagodical implication 414 Therefore, it is important for the students to know how to understand the meaning of words, especially song lyrics lexically and contextually. "Moana" is a 3D animated, musical, fantasy adventure, and computerized film. It is from Walt Disney. The film is the story of a powerful, brave, and independent daughter of a chief in the Polynesian Tribe. This character is very close to the life teenager. Besides Moana's original soundtrack, the soundtrack contains five original songs. The title of the songs are; "How Far I'll Go," "Shinny," “I’m Moana," "Where You Are," and "Know Who You Are." However, there are many words of song lyrics that provide meaningful interpretations for readers and listeners (Zahira & Wulandari, 2022). It also means that the writer composes the words with the grammatical meaning and composes logically and contextually related words by using poetic words. Therefore, the teacher can use Moana's Original Soundtrack as material to teach reading. Based on the explanation above, researchers would like to conduct a research by analyzing song lyrics. Researchers take some theories which are used as a foundation to run the sequence research. Those are related to lexical and contextual meaning. As stated by Nurfithri (2022), it will be simple to understand the overall meaning of the song by understanding the lexical meaning and contextual meaning of the words in the song lyrics. There were some previous studies conducted related to lexical and contextual meaning discussion. The first was the study conducted by Chotimah and As Sabiq (2021). They investigated contextual meaning written in the song lyrics of Rex Orange County’s Album “Pony” and its pedagogical implication. In this study, the researchers focused on analyzing the contextual meaning and its implication in pedagogic. They did not analyze lexical meaning written in the song lyrics. Comparing to this study, this study would like to investigate the lexical and contextual meaning written in the song lyrics and also its pedagogical implication, particularly for teaching reading material. The second previous study was a research which was conducted by Syahfitri, (2021). She investigated song lyrics of Indonesian Song in the title “Terserah” composed by Willy Winarko. She analyzed lexical and contextual meanings in that Song Lyrics. On the other hand, she did not implement the results of lexical and contextual meanings interpretation for a teaching purpose. She only interpreted the different meaning between lexical and contextual meaning. The contextual meanings of song lyrics “ Terserah” related to Covid-19 Pandemic. Further, the research conducted by Syahfitri (2021) was different from this study. The third previous study was conducted by, (Yahya et al., 2018). They analyzed Song Lyrics in the title” Michael Learns To Rock’s (MLTR)” Songs. They analyzed lexical and contextual meaning of those song lyrics, on the other sides; they did not implement the results of analysis for teaching purposes. They only identified the lexical meaning and contextual meaning found in that Song Lyrics, and then they interpreted to semantic point of view. Further, their study research was different focuses from the discussion in this study. Furthermore, the last previous study was conducted by Hariyanto, (2017). He analyzed the Figurative Language used in the Song Lyrics of Firework By Katty Perry, He also analyzed that figurative language based on the context to find out the meanings. Referring to the purposes of analyzing of Song Lyrics in the title “Firework” By Katy Perry, he did not analyze lexical and contextual meaning specifically. Furthermore, he also did not implement the results of analysis for teaching purposes, and then his study was different from the focuses of this research. This research focused on analyzing the lexical and contextual meanings and its implementation for teaching purposes. Based on those descriptions of previous studies, this research is different from those discussions. Furthermore, the research questions of this study can be formulated as the following: (1) What is the form lexical meaning found in the Song Lyrics of “Maona Original Soundtrack”? (2) What is the form of contextual meaning found in the Song Lyrics of “Maona Original Soundtrack? (3) How is the implementation of lexical and contextual meanings analysis for teaching purposes, particularly for teaching reading skills? Referring to those research questions, the researchers would like to explain the purposes of this study. The purposes of conducting this research are as the following; 1. To identify and to describe the lexical meanings found in the Song Lyrics of “Maona Original Soundtrack. The second is to analyze contextual meanings found in the words, phrases, or sentences of Song Lyrics in the title” Maona Original Soundtrack. Furthermore, the last purpose of this study is to explain the implementation of the results analysis ENGLISH REVIEW: Journal of English Education p-ISSN 2301-7554, e-ISSN 2541-3643 Volume 11, Issue 2, June 2023 https://journal.uniku.ac.id/index.php/ERJEE 415 of lexical and contextual meanings for teaching, particularly teaching reading skills. There are two meanings, namely, lexical and contextual meanings (Hulu, 2023). Jenney and Lyons cited by Hasanah and Habibullah (2020), described lexical meaning as the meaning that can stand by itself. It means that lexical meaning is a meaning based on the definition written in the dictionary. Lexical meaning is a meaning that never changes the core of its words, phrases, or sentences (Kriz et al., 2018; Sholihah & Pratiwi, 2018). It relates with the real meaning (Qurrata’ain & Triyono, 2019). Lexical meaning is a meaning taken from the original references (Permana & Winarta, 2021). Furthermore, lexical meaning interpret the meaning originally without expanding and also without minimizing the value of that meaning. It is different from contextual meaning. Contextual meaning is a meaning that depends on the context, at least based on context of culture and context of situation. In the following, researchers would like to described as deep as possible the contextual meaning. The following are many experts who argued about contextual meanings from different their point of view. Parera and Dash, cited by Hasanah and Habibullah (2020), stated contextual meaning was a meaning that cannot be separated from the context of culture and context of ecology. Further, Anindya cited in Nguyen et al. (2020), he described that contextual meaning is a meaning which is inside the context. Then, Rifardi cited in Sinaga and Herman (2020), stated eleven components of meaning such as; gender, situation, purposes, formal and informal contexts in conversation, mood context of speaker or listener, time, place, the object of the context, the context of completeness, linguistics context, and the context of language itself. Furthermore, according to Chotimah & Sabiq (2021), context refers to circumstances, such as the time, place, and environment in which language is employed. Kreidler and Pateda cited in Tambunan et al.(2020), they stated that contextual meaning that is a meaning of a word inside the context. It was related to the situation, time, and environment. Contextual meaning is a meaning referred to the context. Furthermore, when a verbal expression cannot be comprehended immediately, contextual meaning refers to the act of an examining the context to reveal additional indications for the intended meaning (Munthe et al., 2022). However, the contextual meaning could be regarded to the situation, where the time, the language usage environment. It is the meaning of a word or lexeme in relation to its surrounding context (Belu & Sari, 2021). That proves that the word will not be separated from the context of its use. Therefore, context is indeed very important in terms of meaning analysis. Asrifan et al. (2021) argued that the word cannot be used and meaningful for all contexts because that context will always be changed from one time to another. Depraetere (2019) defines context as the ‘simple’ (formal) surroundings of a word or speech, that is, the linguistic and conversational qualities. Syahfitri (2021) further explains that the meaning is not only limited to sentence units. There are units higher than sentence units. This unit is called the supra sentence unit or discourse unit. As a unity of meaning, discourse is read as a whole language because every part of the discourse is related to unity (Sari & Anindita, 2020). Generally, discourse refers to a whole text (if possible), both in oral and written situations; it does not need to refer to rational and logical contents; a discourse can be submitted to any language purpose or any type of reality; for example, a poem, a conversation, a tragedy, a joke, a discussion at a seminar, a long history, a paper in a magazine, an interview, a sermon, and a TV interview. According to Hutajalu et al. (2023), the situational and cultural contexts influence discourse. Researchers often say that the meaning and information obtained and interpreted cannot be separated from the context in discourse and semantic analysis. The interaction referred to in discourse is language interaction. Settings, including the time and place the situation occurred. Activities are all behaviors that occur in verbal and nonverbal language interactions, including speakers' impressions, feelings, responses, and perceptions. Relations, including the relationship between the participants of speaking, Dash (2008) argued the meaning of context is related to the environment. The meaning of a word can be implicit with the neighboring of words. Further, he classified the context itself into four namely; local context, sentential context, topical context, and global context.

The conceptual layering of contexts of a word in a piece of text (Dash, 2008, p. 26) The description of the figure 1.1 is the following; the first is a local context. It refers to the knowledge of words. The second is a sentential context. It refers immediately to the beyond meaning of local context. The third is a topical context. It refers to the wider of circle of meaning beyond the sentence. The last, it is a global context. It is the meaning of words which is larger and wider. METHOD This research belongs to descriptive qualitative. Researchers describe the data in form of song lyrics which are taken from the internet. Researchers described the song lyrics by using theories of lexical and contextual meaning. The subjects of this research are five Song Lyrics in the title of “Maona Original Soundtrack” taken from the internet.

Therefore, in this study, researchers used documentation as the technique of collecting data. The final written report has a flexible structure.

From this research, the researchers found that to understand the contextual meaning, the meaning of the words should be referred to who did say the words, what did the words about, to whom did the words refer to, when did the words use, where did the words produce, why were the words spoken and the sides were how did the speakers produce that words. It helps the researchers to interpret the lexical meaning and contextual meaning of the words taken from song lyrics of Maona Original Soundtrack. On the other sides, lexical meaning is meaning which based on the dictionary (Wardhana et al., 2022). Lexical meaning has no other interpretations. Lexical meaning, meaning that based on the definition of those words. Researchers completing finish to analyze data, researchers would like to discuss the story of these lyrics from Moana Original Soundtrack. The first data is about How Far I’ll Go by Auli'i Cravalho. The meaning of the original soundtrack, How Far I'll Go is about how far the character 'I' or Moana in the song will try to findhis true identity. A young girl who has a different passion from general women in her home area. How her desires and interests are different from others on the island. Demonstrate a love for the nautical and want to find something new from the traditions and habits that have been lived so far but all of her desire against by her father. According to researchers, the songwriter uses several words that are poetic or figurative words so that the word is not suitable if translated literally. The word contains other contextual meanings which have to be interpreted by the reader themselves according to the conditions described in the song. For example, the use of the word "water" to describe Moana's desires and dreams. However, she tried to forget; she still couldn't. Use the word "line" to show the boundaries of the father that Moana cannot cross. the use of the word "Sky" which seems to interpret his father's dreams and traditions that must also be followed by Moana. Besides, the word "wind" interprets the good fortune on Moana's sideand her dreams. Whereas the word "sail" can be likened to the effort and struggle of Moana to find his true identity. The word "light" in the song can also be translated contextually as an opportunity or hope that Moana has to be free and to be herself.The second data is I am Moana by Rachel House & Auli'i Cravalho. This song tells us about the return of courage and optimism from Moana to continue her life journey. This section illustrates how eventually Moana returns to believing in herself and standing as she really wants. Moana's rise from despair is also inseparable from the role of her grandmother, who always supported her, which made her always believe that what she was trying she would get it. Some words are used contextually to describe the atmosphere that occurs in the song. For example, the use of the word "quite" interprets the desires and dreams of Moana that have not come true and are trapped in desperation. The word "tide" is used to describe Moana's tidal desires because of being influenced by circumstances. there is a side where Moana can be very optimistic about realizing her dreams, but there is also a side where Moana can be pessimistic and feel that she has failed.The third data is Where You Are by Lin-Manuel Miranda. This song portrays the peaceful and prosperous life of the Motunui people with their customs and habits that are carried out in a sustainable manner. The use of the word "song" can be interpreted contextually as customs and regulations that have been adopted and implemented by them. The word "trip" can be interpreted that Moana is not allowed to travel to discover new things outside the island.However, Moana has her own desires and dreams to find other things outside the island by wading through the ocean. This is implied by the word "see" in the sentence i wanna see. However, no one has dared to "leave" or, in any other sense abandon existing traditions, rules, and customs to search for new things by sailing across the seas, as their ancestors once did.The fourth data is Shiny by Jemaine Clement. This song shows the presence of Tamatoa or a sea snail who has a hobby of collecting various sparkling objects in his shell so that he can participate in sparkling and becoming the center of attention. Some words are written contextually or have implied and not true intentions. The word "Shinny" describes the perfect situation with all of the advantages. It seems to be insinuating human behavior that likes luxury for the sake of existence. Besides, the word "glitter" can also be interpreted as something that looks very attractive even though it is a deadly trap. Like any sparkling or luxury that only makes people dazzled by the light. If not careful, humans can forget themselves. Therefore, this song indirectly reminds us that as humans, we have to be able to control ourselves so as not to fall complacent.
