Face and Politeness Theoretical Description 1. Pragmatics
metaphorical urgency for emphasis in the expression. Some examples of the strategy in the book of Goody 1978 : 96 are “Listen, I’ve got an idea” and
“Look, the point is”. Those examples show that the speaker has an intention to the hearer to pay attention to the speaker by applying two words, that are listen
and look. Those are to emphasize the expression so it can be seen and felt that the urgency of the expression exist.
3 Metaphorical entreatis stressing the hearer valuation
In the opinion of Goody 1978 : 97, he defines that metaphorical entreatis occurs where the speaker speaks as if imploring the hearer to care for the
speaker, thereby stressing his high valuation of the hearer’s friendship. The examples of metaphorical entreatis based on Goody 1978 : 27 are in the
utterances “Send me a postcard” and “Don’t forget us”. These illustrate metaphorical entreatis strategy because what the speaker said to the hearer has a
goal to the hearer that she or he has to understand and care through the speaker expression without using codes and it usually happens in the friendship since the
relation of friend to friend has their own codes one another.
4 Channel noise
Channel noise is the fourth realization of bald on record politeness strategy where communication find the difficulties because of the distance. According to
Goody 1978 : 97, channel noise shows in the utterance “Come home right now”. The speaker is calling the hearer across a distance through this utterance
which means there is a distance so the speaker has to speak by using maximum efficiency to the hearer.
5 Task-oriented
Goody 1978 : 97 defines that task oriented is concerned with the interaction when face redressed may be felt to be irrelevant. The examples of
task-oriented shown from Goody’s book 1978 : 97 is in the utterance, “Lend me a hand here”. It illustrates task-oriented because the expression implies that
the focus of the speaker is to give the hearer one task or others. It can be seen in the words lend me.
6 Do not care to maintain hearer’s face
The sixth strategy of bald on record politeness strategy named do not care to maintain hearer’s face. Goody 1978 : 97 states that the strategy happens
when the speaker wants to be rude or does not care about maintaing face. It can be seen in the statement, “In future, you must add the soda after the whisky”,
that it is stated by Goody 1978 : 97. This case explains that the speaker is usually more powerful than the hearer so he or she directly uses the kind
expression of rude, you must add the soda after the whiskey, in the area of making jokes or not to manage the speaker’s face.
7 Sympathetic advice or warnings
Goody 1978 : 98 believes that the strategy happens when the speaker gives the advice or warning to the hearer directly. For example, sympathetic advice or
warnings are shown in Goody 1978 : 98 in the utterances, “Careful He’s a dangerous man” and “Take care of yourself, be good, have fun”. The examples
explain that the first expression in “Careful He’s a dangerous man” means the speaker warns the hearer to against someone who threatens him. The speaker
directly gives warning to the hearer. The second example is the expression of sympathetic in the statement, take care of yourself, which means the speaker
makes the action of advice and caring to the hearer.
8 FTA-oriented-bald on record -usage
Based on Goody 1978 : 99, the strategy of FTA oriented bald on record usage is a strategy that happens in the kind of expression such as welcomings,
greetings, farewells, and offers. Then, it is usually concerned with the face in the interlocutors. The example of this strategy according to Goody 1978 : 99 can
be seen in the utterance, “Come in, don’t hesitate, I’m not busy” because the expression uses the kind of invitation in the words come in and is followed by
don’t hesitate, I’m not busy that indicates the speaker to do FTA to the hearer in a purpose that the hearer will accept the invitation without feeling reluctant.
