CHAPTER III DATA ANALYSIS
Expressions of gratitude which are made by AEs, INs, and ELs, as the data of the present study, are first categorized into thanking taxonomy which is built by
Cheng. Then, expressions of gratitude which are made by three groups in every situation are compared. After that, the data analysis is presented according to the
research questions. As baseline data, expressions of gratitude which are made by AEs and INs are first compared by pragmalinguistic and sociopragmatic
approaches. To investigate the evidences of pragmatic transfer, the expressions of gratitude which are made by ELs are compared with the baseline data.
Qualitative method is employed. All expressions of gratitude which are analyzed in the present study are originally elicited by DCT as the instrument of the study.
A. Categorization of Expressions of Gratitude
In 2005, Cheng built a thanking taxonomy which categorize expressions of gratitude into 8 thanking strategies: 1 thanking, 2 appreciation, 3 positive
feeling, 4 apology, 5 recognition of imposition, 6 repayment, 7 other, and 8 alerter.
160
In the present study, categorization of expressions of gratitude as responses to every given situation on the DCT into Cheng‘s thanking taxonomy is
completely presented in Appendix 5, Table 5.1 –5.18. All expressions of gratitude
which are in Appendix 5 are originally gathered by DCT which is employed in the present study. Some representative examples are presented as follow:
