Abstract

This study analyzed about the types of speech acts found in the Text of Jayaprana and Layonsari. Data analysis aimed to get the information used as a basis for making decisions to solve a problem. The data analysis process in this research is called as the process of grouping data based on its characteristics, creating a data grouping model and obtaining important information from the data in the text. The data of speech acts in Jayaprana texts were analyzed based on the types of speech acts and analyzed the social context found in the text of Timun Emas. This research used the technique of getting the data found in the data source. Data analysis in this research applied pragmatic analysis and analysis of social context applying the theory proposed by Dell Hymes (2001). This aspect of study focuses on the functions of language as used in the text of Jayaprana and Layon Sari. Pragmatics examines how meaning is constructed in specific contexts that ties into Austin’s speech act theory. By applying both pragmatic analysis and Hymes’s social context framework, the research can uncover how speech acts are influenced by the broader social, cultural, and situational context. The following are the steps in analyzing the types of speech acts and social contexts found in the Jayaprana and Layonsari texts.
