object of this study, therefore, is mostly concentrated on the spoken language, and the language to be spoken such as in some of literary works, dialogue, and so on, where

commanding and pleading. Directives are considered to have competitive illocutionary function. It deals with negative politeness especially for direct directives,

directives include not simply order and request but more subtly invite, dare, and challenge. This fact of direct illocutionary acts certainly makes the writer interest to
