CHAPTER II REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
2.1 Pragmatics
Levinson 1983:5 defines pragmatics as the study of language use, that is, the study of the relation between language and context that is a basic account of language
understanding. In this case, language understanding means that understanding an utterance involves the making of inferences that will connect with what is said to what
is mutually assumed or what has been said before.Yule 1996:3 has a broader definition about pragmatic. He states three important points. First, pragmatics is the
study of speaker‘s meaning. It is concerned with the study of meaning as communicated by a speaker or writer and interpreted by a listener or reader.
Second, pragmatics is the study of contextual meaning which involves the interpretation of what speaker means in a particular context and how the context
influences what is said. Then, it requires a consideration of how speakers organize what they want to say in accordance with who they are talking to, where, when, and
under what circumstances. Third, pragmatics is the study that explores how the unsaid is recognized as a part of what is communicated. It explores how a listener can make
assumption about what is said in order to arrive at an interpretation of the speaker’s intended meaning. Lastly, pragmatics is the study of the relationship between
linguistic forms and the user of those forms. In short, pragmatics is the study of how language is used to communicate. It is
concerned with how people use language within a context and why they use language in particular ways.
