Language is a very important instrument for people to communicate in order to deliver what they have in their minds. This is the very main device of humans to perform the proper communication. But sometimes they need to say something but saying as it is will not deliver what they really mean to the listener, so here, people use the figurative language. Figurative language can be a word, some words, or even one full sentence which is sometimes heard far from the fact with what the speaker says. This study aims to analyse the figurative language found in Trevor Noah’s Stand Up comedy Show “Son of Patricia”. The first one is to identify the number of figurative language found, the second one is to classify the type of figurative language; why it is categorized as figurative language and the last one is to determine the function of the figurative language found in the video.
