Abstract

Misunderstandings often arise in stand-up comedy, leading to varied audience reactions. Since individuals come from diverse knowledge backgrounds, they must grasp the implicit meanings to fully understand the context of a comedian's speech. However, not all audience members can successfully interpret the context of the jokes. In stand-up comedy, comedians frequently violate the maxims of Grice's (1975) cooperative principle, which creates humor through implicature. This study focuses on analyzing the types and uses of implicature in Drew Lynch's American stand-up comedy performances. Using Grice's (1975) implicature theory, the research employs a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected by listening to and transcribing performances to examine discourse aspects. The findings reveal how Drew Lynch uses implicature to share his opinions, experiences, and emotions humorously, making it easier for the audience to connect with his material. Additionally, the study highlights Lynch's use of lexical items, categorized as references, inferences, and presuppositions, to aid audience comprehension. The study encourages future researchers to delve into other dimensions of implicature, such as its social aspects, or explore its application in different mediums like movies or comics.

Abstract

Numerous studies have explored the implementation of Total Physical Response (TPR); however, most have primarily focused on offline teaching contexts. This study aims to describe the implementation of TPR in both online and offline young learners' English lessons. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, with classroom observations as the primary data source and interviews serving as supplementary data. The observation instrument was based on the 13 principles of TPR outlined by Larsen-Freeman and Anderson (2011). The participants were two female pre-service English teachers: one teaching offline and the other online. The findings indicate that both teachers were unable to fully optimize the application of TPR in their respective settings. The observation results revealed variability in the number and frequency of TPR principles applied by each teacher, with some principles being implemented consistently, others infrequently, and some not at all. The interview data confirmed that the implementation of TPR was shaped by various factors perceived as either advantages or challenges in each context. The study suggests that teachers’ knowledge and experience with TPR are critical factors influencing the effective implementation of TPR in both online and face-to-face classrooms.
