Abstract: Language is a means of communication. A conversation usually requires cooperation between the speaker and the hearer to achieve the desired goal. Through language, humans can interact with each other. Language turns out to have an important role in literary communication, one of which is novel. Novel is one of the literary works, and language is an important part of the creation of the work, so novel can be used as a medium for language learning in schools.
