CHAPTER IV FINDINGS AND DISCUSSION

This chapter is divided into two parts: findings and discussion. The findings part presents the result of the data analysis of the types of Searle’s speech acts in terms of illocutionary acts and illocutionary forces performed by the teacher during the English teaching and learning process at SMA N 1 Purworejo. Meanwhile, the discussion section provides the deep and detailed description of the data findings.

A. Findings

1. The Types of Searle’s Speech Acts in Terms of Illocutionary Acts and

Illocutionary Forces Performed by the Teacher These data findings are related to the types of speech acts in terms of illocutionary acts and illocutionary forces performed by the teacher during the English teaching and learning process at SMA N 1 Purworejo. Searle classifies speech acts into five categories, i.e. representatives, directives, expressives, commisives, and declarations. However, the findings show that there were only four types of speech acts performed by the teacher, namely representatives, directives, expressives, and commisives. The distribution of each speech act in terms of its illocutionary acts and illocutionary forces performed by the English teacher is illustrated in table 4.1, as follows: Table 4.1: The Data Findings of the Types of Speech Acts in Terms of Illocutionary Acts and Illocutionary Forces Performed by the Teacher during the English Teaching and Learning Process at SMA N 1 Purworejo.
