Abstract:

The study has investigated and examined different types of pauses, both filled (hesitations) and non-filled (silent pauses) in terms of phonology in both Aladdin and Doctor Strange movies. It has been found that filled pauses (i.e. hesitations) have been used in the movies mainly to provide only lengthening, repeat and self-correction. Yet, there are other features of hesitations which are called interjection hesitations which are (oh, uh, uh-huh, mm, er, and well).
