Meanwhile, when adding the educational background, the result showed more variations in politeness systems. Despite having age differences the older and younger family members can have conversations in mixed and casual varieties due to the influence of the educational background of speakers.

Therefore, in Wawonii notably in North East Wawonii the educational background of speakers is the factor that significantly defines the choice of people's utterances compared to the variable of age. Hence, this research concluded that educational background influenced the politeness strategies of Wawonii speakers but not of American.
