ABSTRACT

Andriansyah, Dani. 2015. Representative and Directive Act Used by Main Characters in “The Baytown Outlaw” Movie. Thesis. English Department, Faculty of Letters and Humanities, State Islamic University of Sunan Ampel Surabaya. Advisor: Dr. H. A. Dzo’ulMilal, M.Pd.

Key words: Conversation, Representative, Directive

Conversation is the way people to make interaction each other. In conversation, sometimes people asserting about the truth and direct somebody to get what he or she want. In linguistic, asserting the truth usually called representative and direct somebody called directive. It is the reason why the writer interests to analyze about representative and directive.

This research is intended to reveals the representative and directive act used by main characters in “The Baytown Outlaws” movie. The objective of this research are; first, for finding representative and directive used by main characters; second, the purpose of using representative and directive act that used by main characters; and the last, to explain the intended meaning of representative and directive performed by main characters.

This research used pragmatic theory by George Yule that focused on the kinds of illocutionary act that is representative and directive. The descriptive qualitative approach used in this study. The data of this research took from the conversation or dialogue used main characters in the movie.

The results of the analysis in this research are find the representative and directive that used by main characters. Every representative and directive utterances has illocutionary force on each utterances. The illocutionary force of representative that used are stating, claiming, complaining, suggesting, asserting, concluding, describing, and predicting. Then, the illocutionary force of directive are commanding, asking, permitting, requesting, begging, ordering, and entreating. The most dominant of representative is stating and the directive is asking.

Each representative has purposes for informing news, stating curiosity, for making relaxed, thanking, mocking someone, and for discussion. The purposes of directive are for asking, commanding people, begging, and convincing someone. The intended meaning of representative is about announcement, discussion about job, telling story, curiosity of main character, and seducing the girl. On the other hand, the intended meaning of directive is about asking their curiosity, chase away the gangster, and negotiating the new job.

ABSTRAK

Andriansyah, Dani. 2015. Representative and Directive Act Used by Main Characters in “The Baytown Outlaw” Movie. Thesis. English Department, Faculty of Letters and Humanities, State Islamic University of Sunan Ampel Surabaya. Advisor: Dr. H. A. Dzo’ulMilal, M.Pd.

Kata kunci: Percakapan, Representative, Directive

Percakapan adalah cara orang untuk saling berinteraksi. Pada percakapan, terkadang orang menegaskan tentang kebenaran dan memerintah orang lain untuk mendapatkan apa yang mereka inginkan. Dalam ilmu bahasa, menegaskan kebenaran biasa disebut representative dan memerintah orang lain disebut directive. Ini adalah alas an mengapa penulis tertarik untuk menganalisa tentang representative dan directive.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menemukan representative dan directive dari pemeran utama pada filem “The Baytown Outlaws”. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah; pertama, untuk menemukan representative dan directive yang digunakan oleh pemeran utama; kedua, tujuan dari penggunaan representative dan directive yang digunakan oleh pemeran utama; dan yang terakhir, untuk menjelaskan makna terdalam dari representative dan directive yang digunakan oleh pemeran utama.

Penelitian ini menggunakan teori pragmatics dari George Yule yang focus pada macam-macam wacana ilokusi yaitu representative dan directive. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif. Data dari penelitian ini diambil dari percakapan atau dialog yang digunakan oleh pemeran utama pada filem ini.

Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah menemukan representative dan directive yang digunakan oleh pemeran utama. Setiap ungkapan representative dan directive mempunyai illocutionary force. Illocutionary force dari representative yang digunakan adalah menyatakan, mengakui, mengeluh, saran, menegaskan, menyimpulkan, menggambarkan, dan memprediksi. Lalu, illocutionary force dari directive adalah memerintah, bertanya, menngizinkan, meminta, memohon, memesan, dan memohon dengan sangat. Yang paling dominan pada representative adalah menyatakan, danpada directive adalah bertanya.

Setiap representative mempunyai tujuan untuk pemberitahuan kabar, menyatakan penasaran, membuat tenang, rasa terimakasih, mengejek, dan diskusi. Tujuan dari directive adalah untuk bertanya, menyuruh orang lain, memohon, dan meyakinkan orang lain. Makna terdalam dari representative adalah tentang pemberitahuan, diskusi tentang pekerjaan, bercerita, keingintahuan dari pemeran utama, dan merayu perempuan. Disisi lain, makna terdalam dari directive adalah tentang rasa keingintahuan, mengusir sekelompok orang, dan bernegosiasi tentang pekerjaan.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

1.1. Background of the Study

People cannot be separate with communication. In conducting communication, people need a medium to express their intentions and messages. The most appropriate medium is language since language can carry a message by symbols. People produce language for communication into several forms such as asking question, requesting something, blaming, thanking, etc. Through language, people create a communication, and then an interaction will be produced automatically (Cahyadi, P:2). Generally, if people want to deliver a message to others, they will produce utterances in order to make grasp what the message means.

In daily activity, people often direct someone to get what they want and say the truth of their circumstances. In linguistics studies, those things usually called directive and representative. Yule (1996, p:47) stated that in attempting to express themselves, people do not only produce utterances containing grammatical structures and words, they perform action via those utterances. It means that when people direct something, they do not need grammatical structures to get what they want from other people because when they utter some utterance; they are also giving an act. By understanding a little explanation before, the writer interested in analyze movie as the object because by watching a movie, we can focus on one object.


(11)

In this opportunity, the writer finds an interesting movie, which consists of necessary data to be analyzed in this thesis. The movie that was chosen for this study is “The Baytown Outlaws”. This movie is an action comedy movie and directed by Barry Battles in his directorial debut, and written by Battles and Griffin Hood. This movie is talk about three brothers who work as a payment murder. This movie was made in 2012 and first premier in United States in January 11th, 2013.

A lot of things that made the writer interested in this movie, start from the actors, story, and the most interesting one is the conversation or the dialogue of the actors in the movie. They used a dialogue or conversation that very easy to hear but still did not make the movie become monotones. Wardaugh (2006) stated that the function of language is the tool of human communication, whether written or oral has five basic functions expression, information, exploration, persuasion, and entertainment. This statement is very suitable with the movie that had been chose.

The writer analyzes representatives and directives act of speech acts classification based on the conversation and utterances of “The Baytown Outlaws” movie actors. Representative and Directive Acts are chosen as the main theory because the writer interested in find out illocution in the movie, because as the writer know, there is no study that using movie as the object to finding out illocutionary acts. The writer only takes Representative and Directive, without taking another


(12)

speech act classification because those two speech act classifications are often use in daily communication of people. That is the reason why writer want to know deeply about assertion of someone about the truth and knowing about direction of someone for the other people.

There are some related studies made previously. One of them is a study made by Amelia (2008) who analyzed about “Analysis of the Function of Speech Act used by Male and Female Preachers”. Her study aimed to find out what the differences speech act production by male and female preachers in delivering the sermons. The result of this study had shown that gender is the important aspect to affect speech act production. Then, there is a study made by Winarti (2005) that analyzed about function speech act in instant messenger chat spoken by English Department Students of Airlangga University. This study tried to find performative verb in performative utterance based on illocutionary act, perlocutionary act, and locutionary act features. The study applied both theory of Austin’s and Searle’s speech act. The result is performative utterance contained request, promise, assert, device and order. Both of the writers before are same analyzed about the speech act by using three features of speech act; locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary.

The writer find a study that focused on one feature of speech acts; it is made by Farchan (2013) that analyzed about illocutionary act in Jokowi’s campaign, speech on “Mewujudkan Jakarta Baru”. The study aimed to find out the kinds of illocutionary features in the campaign speech of Jokowi. The result of this study is


(13)

4

find the features of illocutionary act that used by Jokowi’s campaign such as Representatives, Declaratives, Commissives, Directives, and Expressives act.

This study is different object and different focus with Farhan’s studies. Farhan’s (2013) object was a video political campaign of JOKOWI’s. Farhan’s (2013) study took all of speech acts classification. This study uses the movie as the object and the utterances of the actors. This study is very interested to analyze because as the writer knows, there is no study which analyzing about illocutionary act and focus on one or two classification by using the movie as the object. By this opportunity, the writer supposes to make a new reference and new knowledge for the reader about illocutionary act is also could analyze in the movie.

1.2.Statement of the Problem

This movie told about three brothers; Brick Oodie, McQueen Oodie, and Lincoln Oodie, that have a criminal job, and the writer only focuses on the Brick Oodie and McQueen Oodie when they are in a conversation each other or with other actors. By take the conversation of those actors, the writer decides to make some questions.

1. What are the representative and directive used by two main characters? 2. What are the purpose of those representative and directive acts performed


(14)

5

3. What are the intended meanings of representatives and directives act performed by two main characters?

1.3. Objective of the Study

Based on the problem of the study above, the writer presents the following aims:

1. To find the representative and directive used by two main characters. 2. To find the purpose of using those representative and directive acts

performed by two main actors.

3. To find the intended meanings of representatives and directives act from main characters in “The Baytown Outlaws” movie.

1.4. Significance of the Study

The study of analysing representatives and directives used by main character in “The Baytown Outlaws” movie supposed to provide contribution to the students of linguistic study as well. This study also has a purpose to explore the speech acts classification that used in the movie, as the writer know that another writer used drama, campaign video, or recording from reality conversation as the object. The writer also had a purpose that this study as a new reference for new researcher. In this study, the writer had been exploring two kinds of speech act classification, representative and directive act, that used by Brick Oodie and McQueen Oodie through the conversation inside of it.


(15)

1.5. Scope and Limitation

The scope of this study was only take illocutionary act as the field of the theory and only focused on two classifications those are representative and directive. The writer only focuses on two classifications because he wants to be more specific in his study. The writer knows that a lot of writer took all of the speech acts classification as the study and that is another reason of why this study only focuses on two classifications. The pragmatics study will take as the main of the theories for this study because the study of illocutionary act is also under definition of speech act. This study also need a definition of context that is why this study also need a pragmatics study to make this study more focus. This study focuses on the utterance between Brick Oodie and McQueen Oodie when they are in a conversation or with other actors. This study also limited on the illocutionary acts and speech acts classification of representatives and directives that used by Brick Oodie and McQueen Oodie which is including in the conversation and utterance in the movie.

1.6. Definition of Key Term

The definitions below are to give the specific terms in this study:

Speech act : Fundamental units of linguistic communication which comprise three different levels: locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary acts (Searle, 1976).


(16)

7

Illocutionary acts : The concept of “by saying something, we do something”, the words, and the specific purpose of speaker (Searle, 1976).

Representative : Representative are kinds of speech acts that state or express what speaker believes to be the case or not. (Yule, 1996, p.53)

Directive : Directive are speech act which speaker attempts to get the hearer to do something. (Yule, 1996, p.53)

IFID : (Illocutionary Force Indicating Device) The most obvious device for illocutionary onary force. (Yule, 1996, p.49)

Movie : A series of moving pictures recorded with sound that tells a story.

CHAPTER II

LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1. Theoretical Framework

The writer presents about the theory that applied for the research in this chapter to analyze the aimed of Brick Oodie’s, McQueen Oodie’s and Lincoln Oodie’s conversation in their movie with the entitled “The Baytown Outlaws”. The theory that proposed by Searle (1976), he explained that there are some acts in every utterances; it is the main theory of this study. Speech acts is the sub studies of pragmatics. The writer also gives the definition of it to make this study more clearly for the reader and to strengthen the analysis.

2.1.1. Pragmatics

Pragmatics is the study of the relationships between linguistic forms and the users of those forms (Yule, 1996, p.4). Yule (1996) also stated that Pragmatics is concerned with the study of meaning as communicated by a speaker (or writer) and interpret by a listener (or reader). Thomas (in Farchan, 2013) stated that the common definition of pragmatics are meaning in use and meaning in context. The last definition about pragmatics before is emphasizing that Pragmatics agree with the use of language in relation to the speakers and interpreters.

Yule (1996: p.3) explained more complex in his book that definition of pragmatics are divided into four definition. First, pragmatics is the study of


(18)

9

speaker meaning. It means that communication needs a further analysis on what people mean by their utterances than its literal meaning of words or phrases in those utterances. Second, pragmatics is the study of contextual meaning. It requires a consideration of how speaker organize what they want to say depends on with who they are talking to, where, when, and under what circumstances. Third, pragmatics is the investigation of invisible meaning. Fourth, pragmatics is the study of the expression of relative distance. Therefore, how close or far the listener is, speakers can determine how much is needed to said

The advantages of studying language via pragmatics are that one can talk about people’s intended meaning, their assumptions, their purposes or goals, and the kinds of action. Since there is an advantage, it will always have disadvantages. The big disadvantage one is that these entire human concepts are extremely difficult to analyze in a consistent and objective way.

2.1.2. Context

Brian (2006) stated that understanding of how language in context is central to an understanding of the relationship between “what is said” and “what is understood” in spoken and written discourse. The meaning of grammatical utterance from the speaker could not be understood easily without knowing the context of the situation. The context of situation of what someone says is, therefore, crucial to understanding and interpreting the meaning of what is being


(19)

10

said (Brian, 2006:53). Brian also stated about what the impact of situational context.

situational context included the physical context, the social context and the mental worlds and roles of the people involved in the interaction. Each of these impacs on what we say and how other people interpret what we say in spoken and written discourse (Brian, 2006:54).

It is not enough when someone who wants to reveal the intended meaning only based on the speaker and the hearer. The situation when the utterance produced is also important to be known. The writer will explain the importance of it through the example below:

A. “Give me a fire!”

1. When the speaker who delivers the utterance in [A] is a smoker, it can be understood that he wants anyone to help him to turn on his cigarette. In other words, by saying that utterance, he wants to borrow matches from someone else.

2. When the utterance in [A] is delivered by a student who failed in the daily exam to his or her friend, it can be understood to ask for help. The helping which is meant by the writer is not to cheat, but the helping here is to motivate the student who failed in the exam. He asks his friend to give him motivation for studying harder. It is done to avoid the same failed in the future.


(20)

11

Gee in Cahyadi (2014) states that context in writing is obviously somewhat different from context in speech because writer and reader are not face-to-face physically encountering each other. It means that understanding the intended meaning of a speaker will be different understanding with a writer when they are in writing, the reader will not see the gesture of the writer that can help the reader to explore the intended meaning.

2.1.3. Speech Act

Speech act theory originates in Austin’s (1962) observation that while sentence can often be used to report states of affairs, the utterance of some sentence, Yule in Farchan (2014) stated that action performed via utterances are generally called speech act, and in English, are commonly given more specific labels, such as apology, complaint, compliment, invitation, promise, or request. The theory of Speech Act would serve as a tool for analysis and evaluation of the selected speeches in this study. The choice of Speech Act theory as the tool for analyzing Brick Oodie’s and McQueen Oodie’s conversation is because of the fact that they are performing some action through the use of words. Speech Act will make the writer able to uncover the truthfulness of signs of what the Brick Oodie’s and McQueen Oodie’s expression means when it is uttered.

There are three levels of Speech Act that introduce by Austin (1975 p.3), those three levels are: locutionary act, illocutionary act, and perlocutionary act. The first level is locutionary act which concerns with the meaning of the word


(21)

12

themselves. Locutionary act is the actual utterance and its actual meaning (Austin, 1975).

Illocutionary act is the speaker signals an associated speech act and intended meaning. Austin (1975) stated that speaker does something in uttering to the hearer in context, such as; states a fact or an opinion, confirms or denies something, apologizing, promising, requesting, and asking or commanding. For further explanation about illocutionary act, it will be discussed in the next subchapter.

Perlocutionary act is the actual effect of speakers’ utterance to the hearer. A perlocution is the act that caused by the illocution to produce a certain effect or a certain influence to the addressee. The example of perlocutionary act are: persuading, convincing, scaring, enlighting, inspiring, or otherwise getting someone to do or realize something, wheter intended or not (Austin, 1975, p.3).

Since this study primarily focused on the meaning and act performed of Brick Oodie’s and McQueen Oodie’s conversation and has no purpose to find the speech effect to the audience, this study will not use locutionary and perlocutionary act as a other tool for analyzing the data to makes the study more focus and detail.


(22)

13

2.1.4. Illocutionary Act

The illocutionary act is the speaker signal an associated speech act and intende meaning (Austin, 1975). Further Austin added that illocutionary act concept “by saying something, we do something”. From that concept, we can conclude that someone has the illocutionary force while speaking something. The illocutionary act is one of sublevels of speech act. Illocutionary act is the central concept in speech act theory framework that has the function for analyzing the use of language in a communication. Illocutionary act is the utterance of sentence by speaker which is sent to have performed some acts Yule (1996: 232). In other words it can be said that the speaker wants the hearer do something after hear their utterances. The illocutionary force is “What is done in uttering the words”, the function of the words, the specific purpose of the speaker in his utterances (Cutting, 2002, p.16). According to Searle, the five categories of illocutionary acts are representatives, commissives, directives, declarations and expressive (Archer, etal, 2012, p.39). The following are the explanation of two illocutionary act categories as the writer focused.

2.1.4.1. Representatives

Representatives are kinds of speech acts that state or express what speaker believes to be the case or not (Yule, 1996, p.54). Searle in Levinson (2000) stated that Representatives commit the speaker to the truth of the expressed proposition. The speakers’ utterance describes


(23)

14

some circumstances of them. Representatives’ act involves stating, claiming, asserting, suggesting, complaining, concluding, describing, hypothesizing, and predicting. There is also complex definition written by Jacob ():

“Assertions often, maybe even always, represent a subjuctive state of mind: the speaker who asserts a proposition as true does so in force of his or her belief. The belief may have different degrees of ‘force’: it makes a difference whether I postulate something or merely hypothesiz; however, the point of the speech act remains the same.”

For example: “The earth is flat” 2.1.4.2. Directives

Yule (1996, p.53) stated that directives are speech act which speaker attempts to get the hearer to do something. The hearer will express what the speakers’ wants. Searle in Levinson (2000) also stated that directives are attempts by the speaker to get the addressee to do something. Directive is use for function such as asking, ordering, requesting, begging, commanding, pleading, praying, entreating, permitting, and inviting. Jacob (2009, p.1015) stated clearly about directive:

‘Directives’ express the speaker’s wish that the hearer do such-and-such a thing and are uttered with the presumption that the hearer is under some obligation to carry out the action in question (status and roles within an office or an institution determine the right to utter the directive in question).


(24)

15

For example: “Do not touch that” or “Could you lend me a pen, please?” 2.1.5. Direct and Indirect Speech Acts

An utterance is possible have more than one illocution. To differentiate it, the writer decided to take direct and indirect speech-act as the sub theory. Yule (1996, p. 54) stated that direct speech act is when there is direct relationship between the structure and function. On the other hand, when there is indirect relationship between the structure and the function it can be called indirect speech act (Yule, p.55, 1996).

Thomas (in Jacob, p.113, 2004) observed, “In English, it is not usual to use the words I invite you to perform the act of inviting”. The opinion from Levinson is supporting what Thomas said before. Levinson (p.263, 2008) stated that most usages (of request) are indirect. On indirect speech act, we are not observing the structural or the functional form of the utterance; we have to take the context when the utterance is utters. These sentences below are the example of direct and indirect speech act.

(A)1. Move out of the way!

2. Do you have to stand in front of the TV? 3. You are standing in front of the TV.


(25)

16

The basic function of all the sentences above is a command or request, but the only sentence that use imperative structure in (A1) is represents direct speech acts. The interrogative structure in (A2) is not being for a question, but it is also for reminds someone to move from in front of the TV that is why the sentence (A2) is an indirect speech acts. The declarative structure in (A3) and (A4) is also representing as indirect speech act. We can conclude that indirect speech act is a theory to find out the second meaning of illocution sentence.

2.1.6. Illocutionary Force Indicating Device (IFID)

Searle (1969: 30) states that illocutionary force is what illocutionary act the speaker is performing in the utterance of the sentence. In other words, it can be say that the illocutionary act produced by the speaker can be know from the illocutionary force. While Yule (1996: 49) defines that illocutionary, force is a slot for a verb that explicitly names the illocutionary act being performed. A verb can be called a performative verb (Vp). Therefore, the device of indicating device is performative verb. For example in the dialogue:

Him: Can I talk to Marry? Her: No, she’s not here.

Him: I’m asking you, can I talk to her? Her: And I’m telling you, She’s not here!

In the dialogue above, each speaker has describe, and drawn attention to, the illocutionary force (‘ask’ and ‘tell’) of their utterances.It also can be understood


(26)

17

that illocutionary force will help the listener to classify the illocutionary act being performed by the speaker.

Furthermore, Searle (1969: 30) states that illocutionary force indicating devices in English include word order, stress, intonation contour, punctuation, the mood of the verb, and the so-called performative verbs. From that statement, it can be seen that there are several things in illocutionary force that have to be known before classifying the type of illocutionary acts in an utterance.

2.2. Previous studies

There are some studies conducted previously that quite helpful for this study. The first is a study that made by Winarti with the title “A Study of Speech Acts in Instant Messenger chat spoke by English Department studies in Airlangga University. This study tried to find performative verb in performative utterance based on illocutionary act, perlocutionary act, and locutionary act features. The study applied both theory of Austin’s and Searle’s speech act. The result is performative utterance contained request, promise, assert, device and order. The second studies that also supported this study is made by Amelia (2008) with the title “Analysis of the Function of Speech Act used by Male and Female Preachers”. The study aimed to find out what the differences speech act production by male and female preachers in delivering the sermons. The result of this study shows that gender is the important aspect to affect speech act production. Those two studies are same used speech act as the theory to analyzing the data, even though those are in different object.


(27)

18

There is study that focused on analyzing illocutionary act. The study made by Farhan (2013) with the title A Study of Illocutionary Act: JOKOWI’s Campaign Speech on “Mewujudkan Jakarta Baru”. The study aimed to find out the kinds of illocutionary features in the campaign speech of Jokowi. The result of this study is find the features of illocutionary act that used by Jokowi’s campaign such as Representatives, Declaratives, Commissives, Directives, and Expressives act.

The last study is almost same as the writer focused in the analyzing on the study, that is illocutionary act, but Farhan’s (2013) study was take all of the speech acts classification and used political campaign speech video from you-tube as the object. On the other hand, this study used movie as the object of the study and only focus on two kinds of speech act classification, those are representatives and directives.

CHAPTER III RESEARCH METHOD

This part tells about how the researcher collects the data and analyzes this study. The approach of the study will be explains in this chapter.

3.1. Research Design

In completing this study, the writer applies qualitative approach to answer the statement of problems. According to Bodgan (1982), qualitative method is a research procedure which observes the data which are written or spoken by people and also includes their behaviour. The writer considers that qualitative approach is the suitable method because some of the data taken from the conversation transcribe of the movie and the writer does not need statistical data. The data are transcribed from the entire conversation of the actors in “The Baytown Outlaws” movie. Qualitative approach, as the name indicates, is an approach that does not involve measurement or statistics ( http://webspace-.ship.edu/cgboer/genpsyqualmeth.html).

3.2. Data and Data Sources

The writer took the data from browsing in Google and downloaded it from

www.ganool.co.in/the-baytwon-outlaws-2012 website. The movie that was

chosen is “The Baytown Outlaws” movie. The Baytown Outlaws is a movie that has 99 minutes length of duration, which consists of many dangerous and comedy drama. The data of this study is from the two main characters when they are communicating each other or with other actors as the data. Those two main


(29)

20

actors are Brick Oodie (Clayne Crawford) and McQueen Oodie (Travis Fimmel) because those actors are often appearing in the movie.

3.3. Instrument

The main instrument of this study is the writer himself. The writer is the main instrument because this study made by the writer himself. All the activities were done by the personal computer and office software.

3.4. Technique of Data collection

The writer took the data by several steps. Start from download the movie until become a transcribe data.

1. The writer downloaded the movie from internet websites www.ganool.co.in/the-baytown-outlaws-2012-bluray720p.

2. The first until second watching movie was for understanding the general story of the movie.

3. The third until fifth watching movie was for transcribed the utterances of all characters by using Orthography Transcription, that is transcribed the correct spelling according to established usage.
