The result shows that there are 17 data containing presupposition; 5 counter-factual presuppositions, 5 potential presuppositions, 5 structural presuppositions and 2 factive presuppositions. These result indicate that there are only 4 types of presuppositions found in this study while the other 2 types of presuppositions (lexical and non-factive presuppositions) even though they contain presuppositions, there is no element of slavery in them.
