4.1.2 The Most Dominant slang word used by Bruno Mars lyrics of song
The most dominat song I found in runaway baby song, and the most dominant
slang word in Bruno Mars lyrics is clipping, because clipping occur when a word or
more than one syllable is reduced to a shorter from. In the research, the clipping word
that mostly appear in the lyrics is word ”cause” or ”cuz”. For example a lyrics cause is
cause she got me for everything. This research also found that Bruno Mars often use
slang word and clip the ”g” alphabet in the last word. The term ”cause” or ”cuz” is
considered as a clipped word because originally is comes from word ”because” which is
reduced to shorter from”cuz”, nowdays young people prefer to use the clipped from
“cuz”or ”cause” instead of ” because”. I found cause in the all lyrics of song Bruno
Mars there is twenty five slang words in all lyrics. In all lyrics there is all cause slang
words I found.
