Abstract

Speaking is one of the important skills in learning English. Speaking means communication. One of the roles in communication is by using Idiom (an expression that cannot be understood from the meanings of its separate words but that has a separate meaning of its own). Idiomatic has roles in communication. This case study investigated on how to understand and use certain Idioms about daily life especially for their final project (DRAMA) by using essential methods that support the process in teaching. The participants were STBA Pontianak students’ class 1A1 at the second semester and the class consist of 40 students. The subject of this class is Conversation 2. There are more than 25 new idioms taught by the lecturer in one semester and as the last project was they should make a drama in a group consist of 5 to 6 students. The drama spent 3 to 5 minutes for each group and they should record it as their final assignment. The result of the research was amazing, many unexpected things happened, from the use of the idioms, and also the recording itself.

Abstract

This research aimed at identifying the category of directive speech acts found in the utterances of six female characters of six Jane Austen’s novels (Elinor Dashwood of Sense and Sensibility, Elizabeth Bennet of Pride and Prejudice, Fanny Price of Mansfield Park, Emma Woodhouse of Emma, Anne Elliot of Persuasion, and Catherine Morland of Northanger Abbey), and explaining the hedges used in directive speech acts. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method to collect, analyze, and discuss the findings which closely related to the classification of directive speech acts of female main characters in Jane Austen’s novels and the use of hedges in directive speech acts. The findings show that directive speech acts are formed imperatively, declaratively, and interrogatively. From all existing categories of directive speech acts (ask, order, command, request, suggestion, beg, plead, pray, entreat, invite, permit, and advise), the female main characters in Jane Austen’s novels only presents ask, request, advice, and suggestion. Hedges found in directive speech acts are not only used to show hesitancy but also to present certainty (I believe, I must) of the speakers’ previous knowledge. In addition, hedges are not the only marker that may show uncertainty, because exclamation ‘well!’ and ‘oh!’, as well as the contrasting conjunction are used to pause due to the uncertain statement.
