Kris : No, I don’t I don’t because I’m always cool. No no, I mean I mean I don’t
really do that. Because like uh…. There is I am sure that other members do
that more than more than I do. I just do it sometimes, only sometimes. Like
before we go on stage and maybe fix my hair. I don’t do a lot.
From the transcript, we can analyze that Kris do some speech errors. There are 5 times
repeats, once filled pause and once slip of the tongue.
1. Filled pause is a period or gap filled with fillers when speakers speak slowly. In
Linguistics, fillers are sounds or words that are spoken to fill up gaps in
utterances for example the words uh, ah, mm, er or the like. It is found in Kris’s
utterance.
Uh is the gap which is used by Kris before he continues the next utterance. I
think, at the time he needs more time to figure out what he is going to say, or
when he change his mind in the middle of an utterance.
2. Repeats is the situation where speaker repeats one or words in a row. At this
time, Kris is doing 5 times repeats.
3. Slip of the tongue is speaker may make error in sounds, words, and even
sentence structures. In this video, Kris does slip of tongue once. He does wrong
in sentence structure.
