Abstract

I conducted this study to investigate the speech styles used by Raymond Chin, the 20 Under 20 podcast host. I did this study to find the speech styles used by Raymond Chin when talking to his male and female guests. In addition, I observed the similarities and differences in the speech styles used by Raymond when talking to his male and female guests. In conducting this study, I used the theory of speech styles by Chaer and Agustina (2014). Furthermore, this study was done using the qualitative approach. I found From this study that Raymond used the consultative, casual, and intimate speech style toward his male and female guests. Raymond also employed an additional formal speech style toward his female guest. This study shows that Raymond experiences speech accommodation which causes Raymond to, consciously or unconsciously, adapt his speech style based on the gender of his guest.

Abstract

This research examines politeness in two Endgame podcasts, focusing on Gita Wirjawan's request and the use of address terms with a minister and a non-government employee. The writer analyzes politeness expressed by Gita Wirjawan in two podcasts on his channel using First-Order Politeness by Watts (2003) and the Indonesian (Javanese) politeness principle by Suseno (2001) and Kuntjara (2009). A descriptive qualitative approach is employed in this study. The analysis shows that Gita often uses direct language for requests, utilizes the term 'you' to blur their distance. The findings show that Gita wanted to look neutral with someone who has the same rank and tended to appear to have a lower rank when he talks with someone with a higher rank. In conclusion, differences in rank influence how people communicate.

Abstract

This study analyzed the conversational strategies of Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner at The New York Times conference, focusing on their business-related discussions and exploring similarities and differences based on age and status. Following Coates' (2013) theory, seven strategy aspects were examined: minimal responses, hedges, tag questions, questions, commands and directives, swearing and taboo languages, and compliments. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the study identified the strategies employed by each speaker. Kim Kardashian used five strategies, while Kris Jenner used six. Overall, the findings indicated more similarity than difference in their conversational strategies, suggesting there are influences from context, status, and age.
