Abstract

Communication at the workplace requires meaningful understanding because it affects the work relationship as well as the work atmosphere. Hence, expressions used to generate such conditions are supposed to embody a conducive environment. This research aimed to determine the types of indirect speech acts and their language functions. This study used a qualitative research with a descriptive design to depict the phenomenon. The subjects were three employees at PT. Bosowa Berlian Motor Makassar, who were chosen purposively considering their availability and their readiness during the data collection. The data were collected by using observation with audio recordings and the researchers themselves as the non-participant observers. The results of this study showed that there were five types of indirect speech acts and there were certain language functions practiced by the employees, they are: emphasizing and instructing (assertive type), telling a condition and commanding what to do (directive type), directing and checking for the appropriate work (commissive type), complaining and giving subtle offense (expressive type), and responding, telling information and encouraging (declarative type). All types and their functions revealed and occurred to meet the need of creating a conducive environment in the workplace. The five types represent the traits of being assertive, directive, trusted, expressive, and declarative along with their use of language functions. These traits bear positive and good atmosphere in the workplace. Thus, with the conducive working environment, the employees can undertake their tasks well and focus on reaching the target in the workplace.

Abstract

In EFL (English as a Foreign Language) classrooms, many students struggle with speaking due to anxiety, low self-confidence, and fear of making mistakes. This issue is particularly prevalent among learners with limited vocabulary or basic proficiency levels, making it a persistent challenge for language teachers. This study explores teachers’ perceptions of the strategies they employ to build students’ speaking confidence in an EFL context. Conducted at Cambridge English School in Makassar, Indonesia, this qualitative research involved in-depth interviews and classroom observations of three experienced English teachers. Thematic analysis of the data revealed four key strategies perceived as effective: active learning (e.g., role-play and peer interviews), collaborative learning (especially small group discussions), praise and positive feedback, and creating safe peer-based environments. Teachers reported that these strategies increased students’ willingness to participate, enhanced their fluency, and encouraged risk-taking in communication. The emotional support provided through praise and structured peer collaboration helped reduce anxiety and fostered a sense of psychological safety. These findings are interpreted through theoretical lenses such as Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory, Krashen’s affective filter hypothesis, and Bandura’s self-efficacy theory. The study concludes that promoting speaking confidence in EFL learners requires not only linguistic input but also strategies that address emotional and social aspects of learning. Implications for learner-centered pedagogy are discussed.
