Abstract

Language is a crucial component of communication and serves as the foundation for interactions. In linguistics, there is a branch called pragmatics that studies speech acts. Pragmatics provides a framework for analyzing the relationship between language and context. Related to pragmatics, this research explores the classifications of speech acts in the film "Good Will Hunting (1997)”. This research aims to analyze the type of speech acts, as proposed by Searle (1976), that can be found in conversations between the characters Will Hunting and Sean Maguire. The film offers a narrative canvas to investigate representatives, directives, commissives, expressives, and declaratives. A descriptive qualitative method was employed in this research. The data was collected by employing attentive listening and note-taking methods and analyzed using descriptive and interpretative techniques. The findings of this research reveal a total of 61 speech acts, with representatives being the most dominant type with a total of 43 speeches, followed by directives totaling 8 speeches, 6 expressives, and both commissives and declaratives totaling 2 speeches each. The implications of these findings extend to a nuanced understanding of interpersonal communication in cinematic contexts. Keywords : pragmatics, speech acts, illocutionary acts

Abstract

This study examines the problems encountered by EFL students in composing qualitative research proposals and explores the tactics employed to address these problems. The study included three individuals who were enrolled as students in the English Education Department and had experienced delays in submitting their qualitative research proposals. The data were obtained via semi-structured interviews, wherein the researcher utilized mobile phones to record the participants' responses. The research employed a descriptive case study methodology and applied thematic analysis for data analysis. The findings of this study revealed a number of challenges encountered by students. These challenges encompassed deficiencies in various writing components, such as content-related problems, syntactic issues, vocabulary limitations, and challenges in sourcing references. Additionally, students faced internal obstacles, specifically a lack of motivation stemming from laziness. Lastly, technical difficulties were encountered when undertaking qualitative research proposals. In order to address these challenges, several potential solutions have been identified. One such solution involves fostering a supportive environment among peers, wherein they provide encouragement and assistance in the process of writing proposals. Additionally, it has been suggested that students may benefit from engaging in activities that restore their motivation and enthusiasm for research, such as watching educational content on platforms like YouTube. Lastly, self-evaluation has been proposed as a means of assessing their progress and identifying areas for improvement.Keywords: Qualitative Research, EFL, Challenges and Solutions
