This study analysis discusses how often positive politeness appears in the main character's dialogue in the film "Moana 2", what the functions of positive politeness strategies are used in the film "Moana 2", and what factors cause positive politeness strategies to be used in the film "Moana 2". The purpose of this study was to determine how often, what the types, factor and functions of politeness strategies used by the main character in the film "Moana 2", to obtain the types of dominant politeness strategies produced by the main character in the film "Moana 2" and to describe the context of politeness strategies used by the main character in the film "Moana 2". The data of this study are the dialogues of the main characters in the film "Moana 2". This study employed a descriptive qualitative design, focusing solely on the main character. In this analysis, positive politeness was found to have five types: notice, exaggerate, use in-group identity markers, avoid disagreement, and use friendly and respectful language. The findings of this study are 68 positive politeness strategies. The most dominant politeness strategy employed by the main character in the film "Moana 2" is the use of friendly and respectful language. This positive politeness strategy occurs because the main character speaks with politeness and politeness that is inherent in their culture, and is in a royal environment.
