Abstract

This study aims to uncover the politeness strategies which are used by English Education Students/Non Native Speakers of English (NNS) in requesting and compared it to the Native Speakers of English (NS). The main data was obtained from Discourse Completion Test (DCT) with six situations shared to 84 NNS and 6 NS of English as parameter. All six situations in the DCT are based on the sociolinguistics variables such as distance and imposition. The data from DCT are also supported by the data from interview and observation. All the data are classified and analysed by using the theory of politeness strategies from Brown and Levinson (1987), Yule (2000) and Cutting (2002). It revealed that both Native Speakers (NS) of English and Non Native Speaker (NNS) participants use interrogative form in expressing request, except in expressing bald on record strategy. In addition both NS and NNS participants in this study frequently use negative politeness strategy with more than 50% in each situation. Moreover in the situations which have far social distance, all of the NS participants use negative politeness strategy. In doing negative politeness strategy both NS and NNS participants tend to use modal such as “May I…” or “Would you ...” It is also strengthened by the NNS’ statements in interview that they were taught to use modal and interrogative forms in expressing request since Junior and Senior High School. In addition they also stated that they frequently watch western movies to improve their skills in using English for daily communication, such as requesting. Therefore, it also helps them to decrease any possibility to do pragmatic failure. However, NS participants tend to be more brief and straighter to the point in expressing request than the NNS participants especially in the situations which have low imposition level.

Abstract

Pronunciation is often recognized as one of the most challenging aspects of English learning and requires instructional approaches that provide interactive and meaningful practice. Reading storybooks aloud offers opportunities for young learners to develop pronunciation through contextualized language use and repeated exposure to spoken English. This study aimed to explore the learning process and students’ responses to learning English pronunciation through reading storybooks aloud. The participants were fourth-grade students at an elementary school in West Java, Indonesia. Employing a qualitative descriptive design, the data were collected through classroom observations and semi-structured interviews. The findings revealed that students’ pronunciation learning through reading storybooks aloud occurred through several interconnected stages. These included pre-reading activities, in which students engaged with storybook covers, titles, illustrations, and key vocabulary; teacher-led reading aloud that provided pronunciation models; guided repetition of sentences; story retelling to reinforce understanding; and pronunciation rehearsal through group and individual reading aloud accompanied by immediate teacher feedback. These stages facilitated students’ engagement with English pronunciation in a meaningful and supportive learning environment. The results indicate that reading storybooks aloud was implemented effectively and created an enjoyable learning atmosphere. Most students demonstrated improved pronunciation accuracy and responded positively to the activities, particularly when using illustrated storybooks. However, a small number of students experienced pronunciation difficulties due to limited focus and insufficient practice. Overall, the study suggests that reading storybooks aloud is a beneficial pedagogical approach for supporting English pronunciation development among elementary school students.
