Speech Act Theory
Speech act theory studies how language is used to perform actions through utterances. A speech act has three components: the locutionary act (the literal meaning of words), the illocutionary act (the intention or action performed), and the perlocutionary act (the effect on the listener). Searle identified five types of illocutionary acts: directives that try to make the listener do something, commissives that commit the speaker to future actions, representatives that state beliefs, declaratives that change situations, and expressives that convey emotions.
Imperatives 1 b

They represent one of the three moods of English verbs.

Presentase Macropragmatics speech acts austin and searle
Speech act theory was proposed by John L. Austin and J.R. Searle. It holds that language is used not just to describe or inform, but also to perform actions or "do things." Utterances can have locutionary meaning (literal meaning), illocutionary force (intended meaning), and perlocutionary effect (effect on the listener). Searle classified speech acts into five categories: directives, commissives, representatives, declaratives, and expressives. Indirect speech acts use utterances in non-literal ways to perform actions.
Types of speech act
Speech acts are utterances that speakers use to achieve intended effects such as apologies, greetings, requests, complaints, invitations, compliments, or refusals. There are three types of speech acts: locutionary acts are the actual utterance, illocutionary acts are the social function or purpose of the utterance, and perlocutionary acts are the resulting effects of the utterance based on context. Additionally, Searle classified illocutionary acts into five categories: assertives express beliefs, directives try to make the listener perform an action, commissives commit the speaker to future actions, expressives convey feelings or reactions, and declarations bring about external changes through language alone.
imperatives
The document discusses the imperative form of verbs. The imperative is used to give commands and orders without a subject. Examples are given such as "Open your mouth" and "Walk to the corner." Although imperatives have no grammatical subject, the understood subject is "you." The form remains the same whether addressing one or more people. Imperatives can be used to give orders, instructions, advice, warnings, offers, or invitations. Negative imperatives use "do not" or "don't." The "let's" form includes the speaker.
Diikuti infinitif
This document discusses how question words like when, where, how, who, whom, whose, what, which and whether can be followed by an infinitive. It provides examples of sentences with question words followed by should or can/could expressed as an infinitive, and how they have the same meaning as sentences using question words followed directly by should or can/could. The document aims to illustrate how infinitives can be used after question words to express should or can/could without changing the overall meaning.
4 types of sentences
There are 4 types of sentences: declarative sentences that make statements, imperative sentences that give commands or requests, interrogative sentences that ask questions, and exclamatory sentences that express strong feelings or surprise. Each type of sentence has a specific purpose and ends with a specific punctuation mark - declarative sentences end with a period, imperative sentences end with a period or exclamation mark, interrogative sentences end with a question mark, and exclamatory sentences end with an exclamation mark.

Good listening requires stopping talking, preparing to focus, putting the speaker at ease, avoiding distractions, empathizing, being patient, and listening for ideas rather than just words. Clarification skills like restating what was said and asking questions help ensure understanding. Nonverbal cues like body language, appearance, and tone of voice also contribute to effective communication.
Body Language
The document discusses how body language and gestures can easily be misinterpreted across cultures. Three stories are provided as examples: 1) An American uses the "A-OK" gesture which means "money" in Japanese, 2) A British thumbs-up is seen as rude in Sardinian culture, 3) Simple gestures like a finger-ring or nose-pinching take on negative meanings when seen by people from other cultures like Syrian or Colombian. The key lesson is that body language needs to be used carefully as the same gestures can have very different or even opposing meanings depending on the cultural context.
