Hermeneutic Code

The hermeneutic code is when Elsa hears the mysterious voice calling her out to the night where at the end it leads her to the enchanted forest. "where is the source of the mysterious calling" "what are the intention of the calling"

Proairetic Code 

The proairetic code that was used was when Arendelle suffers from some very strange misfortunes, Grand Pappie informs our heroes that the spirits are angered by an evil wrongdoing which has to be corrected. This is the main quest of the narrative that the characters have to take action on the quest.

Sementic Code

The sementic code used was where Olaf characteritcs are funny as he does puns a lot. The other sementic code used was Anna has the ability to release a typical ice super power which explain that she is different than ordinary human.

Cultural Code

The cultural code used was the formal clothing worn by Kristoff for Anna’s coronation at the end of the film. With our knowledge about royalty, the audience will recognise the character’s new status because his outfit consists of shiny black shoes, trousers, and jacket with gold detail where before Kristoff's new status he was wearing lousy shirt with poor color.

Symbolic Code

The symbolic code used was the antithesis between the development of time and the constancy of love between the main characters. The wind might be a bit colder, but their connection with each other would never fade
