OK. So, the answer is? Ss: E. Can you make it into Indonesian? S: Waktu dan tempat. Place and time.

Another example of ordering is presented below: The teacher ordered her student to stop what she was doing because it was not related to her material. She performed the act of ordering directly and distinctly. It could be identified from the use of imperative forms. By performing the act directly, the imposition was maximized. This means that degree of obligation was higher than that of requesting. The teacher also produced another act of ordering as shown below: The teacher ordered the students to open the book about the elements of the story. Just like the previous examples, the teacher performed the act of ordering directly with the use of imperative form. However, in this example, she employed the word “please” to soften the demand. 5 Reminding The purpose of reminding is to make someone think of something they have forgotten or might have forgotten. Here is one example of the act of reminding employed by the teacher when she was involved in the English teaching and learning process: T: Gita, what are you doing? Gita kept silent T: Keep it because we don’t need that. That is Pak Eko’s material, not Bu RK’s material. Just keep it. M-454601:47-01:56

T: Please open your book about the elements of story. Have you

found it? Ss: Yes. M-460912:05-12:19 The utterances in the bold forms above indicate that the teacher employed the act of reminding. Reminding belongs to directives because it expresses what the speaker wants. Consequently, the hearer will take a particular action. Based on the example, the teacher as the speaker reminded her students not to discuss the answer with other students. She wanted them to do the task by themselves. She also reminded the students to go to the mosque to do the Dzuhur prayer since it was the time for Dzuhur. By saying that, it was expected that the students would do Dzuhur prayer. The teacher also performed another act of reminding in the following utterances: In performing reminding, the teacher expressed it directly by the use of imperative form. She had already told the students to do the task by themselves yet she told them again because she was concerned that they might have forgotten about what she said. The use of imperative indicates that T: OK. We will continue after this. We’ll check for the next time. You don’t discuss with your own friends. Thank you. Don’t forget to go to the mosque and then do the Dzuhur prayer. See you after this. Ss: See you. M-232049:04-49:06 T: Do by yourself. Do by yourself. Don’t cheat. Why? I need to pick the score. Ss: OK, Ma’am. M-15918:43-18:50
