ABSTRACT
The purposes of this study are to (1) describe the types of semantic change existing in characters’ dialogues of the narrative text in high school English textbooks class X; (2) distinguish the conceptual meaning and new meaning in characters’ dialogues of the narrative text; and (3) show the cause of meaning shift in characters’ dialogues of the narrative text. This research approach uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods, because it deals with the qualitative data, the corpus of words. These research findings both in the textbooks The Spotlight containing seven narrative texts and Real Time containing six narrative texts. They indicate a change and a shift in meaning as a result of the contexts of the use of language.)
Key Words: semantic change, meaning shift, narrative texts’ dialogues, characters
