live a better life. They believe that they can succeed if they stick together as a family and resolve to defer their dreams no longer.
H. Review on Related Study
On the Pragmatics researches related to the study of implicature has been conducted by S.N. Tantri Sinuraya 1998. This is entitled “The descriptive Study
of Conversational Implicatures In The Novel Disclosure”. The aims of the
research are to describe the maxim in the conversations in the Novel DISCLOSURE and to describe the generalized conversational implicature in the
novel. Another research related to the study of request has been conducted by
Yuliana Indrasari 2004 entitled ‘Request Expressions in the Film Entitled Philadelphia”
. It described how each type of request expression is applied in the film. It also described the factors that influence the use of each type of request
expression in the film. This research is different to Yuliana Indrasari’s due to the theory being
used. Yuliana Indrasari took Tsui’s requstive theory to conduct the research, while the theory of this research is based on Trosborg’s request strategies. This research
has the same approach as that of S.N. Tantri Sinuraya’s. This research also involves the description of the maxim to find the generalized conversational
implicatures produced by the responses of requests in the conversation of the drama. What makes this research different from S.N. Tantri Sinuraya’s is that this
research focuses the data analysis only on the request expressions.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
A. Research Type
In conducting the study, the researcher employs descriptive qualitative method. The researcher focuses on the activities such as collecting data,
classifying, analyzing, and drawing the conclusion. Whereas Sutrisno Hadi 1983: 30 states about descriptive method as a type of research, which only collects,
analyzes, and concludes the data without concluding them commonly. While qualitative method means a research procedure, which produces descriptive data
in the form of written or oral words of people and behavior, which can be observed Bogdan Taylor, in Moleong 2001: 5.
