CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

1.1. Background of the Study

Language is the main method of human communication, consisting of words
used in a structured and conventional manner and conveyed through speech, writing,
or gestures. Language as a communication tool has an important role for humans
because with language humans can express their thoughts or ideas. In the
communication process, it can be called a speech event or speech act. A speech act is
an element of pragmatics that involves speakers and listeners or writers and readers.
According to Yule (1996: 3), pragmatics is the study that examines the
meaning of the speaker or the speaker's intention. Yule (1996: 47) states an action that
is carried out through speech is called a speech act. According to Austin (1962: 99),
saying something is doing something, and language or speech can be used to create
events. Speech acts carry out their categories as soon as they are said or communicated.
This is usually taken to include actions such as apologizing, asking, ordering,
answering, promising, encouraging, warning, inviting, and so on.
Austin (1962: 100) divides speech acts into three types. The three kinds of
speech acts in the practice of using language are elocutionary speech acts,
illocutionary speech acts, and perlocutionary speech acts. Locutionary acts are speech
acts to state something, while illocutionary acts are actions that the speaker wants to
achieve when he says something and can be an act of stating, promising, apologizing,
and so on. Illocutionary acts can be said to be the most important speech acts in the
study of speech acts because illocutionary speech acts talk about the intent and
function of the utterances that are uttered and what the utterances are for.
Illocutionary speech acts are also related to who speaks to whom, when, and where
the speech act is performed. Perlocutionary speech acts are utterances spoken by
speakers that have an effect or influence on the speech partner.
In speech events, the three kinds of speech acts are arranged systematically to
convey ideas or achieve communication goals. The purpose is the content of the
conversation carried out by the speaker and the speech partner. The three kinds of
speech acts above can also be found in the movie. A movie is a series of stories that
are demonstrated by actors or actors in the movie. Interaction and communication in
films can be realized because of the conversations expressed by actors and actresses.
Communication messages in a movie can be realized in speech acts through
conversations expressed by actors or actresses.
The study of pragmatics can be carried out from various forms of
communication found in everyday life, both communication that occurs in real life
and in other media such as films. In this study, the writer intends to examine the

1
illocutionary speech acts in Pirates of the Caribbean “Dead Men Tell No Tales”. The
writer examines the speech acts of one of the main characters in this movie, a very
iconic character that is Captain Jack Sparrow. This movie tells the story of Captain
Jack Sparrow who is being hunted by Captain Salazar and his cursed pirate crew. This
movie was chosen as the source of research data because in the Pirates of the
Caribbean film "Dead Men Tell No Tales" there were conversations containing
illocutionary speech acts. Pirates Of The Caribbean "Dead Men Tell No Tales" is the
final series of the five Pirates of the Caribbean movies, the other four beings (1) POTC
"The Curse Of The Black Pearl (2) POTC "Dead Man's Chest (3) POTC "At World's
End" (4) POTC "On Stranger Tides". POTC film "Dead Men Tell No Tales" is an
adventure and fantasy genre directed by Joachim Rønning and produced by Walt
Disney Pictures. The movie stars Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush, Brenton Thwaites,
Kaya Scodelario, Kevin McNally, and Javier Bardem.
Every situation or utterance of Captain Jack Sparrow in this movie contains a
specific purpose because context plays a very important role in every utterance or
expression. Therefore, this study aims to examine the illocutionary speech acts
contained in Pirates Of The Caribbean "Dead Men Tell No Tales” by observing the
types and most dominant illocutionary acts.

1.2. Question of the Study

Based on the background of the problem above, the writer needs to formulate
to clarify the direction of the study. The problems to be researched can be formulated
as follows:
1. What are the types of illocutionary acts spoken by Captain Jack Sparrow?
2. What are the dominant types of illocutionary speech acts spoken by Captain Jack
Sparrow?

1.3. Objective of the Study

The writer wants to give an explanation about the aim of this research, which are:
1. To describe the types of illocutionary acts in Captain Jack Sparrow’s dialogue.
2. To find out and describe dominant types of illocutionary speech acts used by
Captain Jack Sparrow.

1.4. Scope and Limitation

The scope of this research is speech acts. To make it more specific, the writer
focuses on the type, categories, and the most dominant illocutionary speech acts. The
writer will analyze and explain the classification of illocutionary acts and the most
dominant illocutionary speech acts spoken by Captain Jack Sparrow.

2
1.5. Significance of the Study
Theoretically, it is hoped that it will enrich previous research studies and
improve the body of knowledge, especially in the field of linguistics.
Practically, it is expected to provide information and understanding to readers
about illocutionary speech acts and all their elements. The writer also hopes that this
research can be a reference for students at the University of 17 Agustus 1945 Surabaya.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

2.1. Previous Study

The first is a thesis entitled "An Illocutionary Acts in Jennifer Lee's Movie
Frozen" by Leily Purnamasari an English student from the University of 17 Agustus
1945 Surabaya in 2020. This study uses Searle’s theory which discusses the
classification found and the responses of each illocutionary act in the movie. In this
study, there are 47 data found, such as 9 representatives, 8 commissives, 23 directives,
7 expressives.
The second is “The Illocutionary Acts in Fast and Furious 7 Movie” by Adi
Imam Taufik, an English student of the Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta in 2016. This
study uses Searle’s theory which discusses the classification of illocutionary, context,
and direct and indirect speech acts. In this study, there are 19 data of illocutionary acts
which are used by the character, those are 5 data of representatives, 4 data of directive,
4 data of expressive, 5 data of commissive, and 1 datum of declarative. And the writer
of this research only found 1 datum of indirect speech acts and the rest 18 data include
direct speech acts.
The last one is a thesis entitled “An Analysis of Speech Act in Hillary
Clinton’s Speech “This Madness Has to Stop” by Novia Cindy Gultom, an English
student of University of Sumatra Utara Medan in 2017. This study uses the speech act
theory of Yule and Searle which discusses classifications of speech acts and the most
dominant category of speech act. 28 sentences were selected from the speech and the
findings showed that the overall relative frequency percentages were: assertive 25%,
commissive 42.9%, expressive 10.7%, and directive 21.4%. The results show that
Hillary relies more on sentences that carry out commissive speech acts than other
speech acts.
From the previous research above, there is a difference in this study. The
writer analyzes the types of illocutionary acts and explains the meaning and context
of the dialogue. The writer hopes that this research can provide information and
contribute as a reference and improvise the reader's knowledge to understand
illocutionary acts.

2.2. Theoretical Framework

2.2.1. Pragmatics
Pragmatics as a branch of linguistics is the study of meaning related to the
context. It explains how to use language that is well understood after relating it to
situations where, when and by whom it is spoken.

5
 According to Yule (1996: 5), pragmatics is defined as the study of the
relationship between linguistic forms and the users of these forms, and between the
three parts of the difference, pragmatics is the only thing that allows humans to an
analysis. The function of learning linguistics through pragmatics is that human beings
can speak about the meaning conveyed or intended by people, their assumptions, their
intentions, and goals, as well as various types of actions such as requests that are
shown when they are talking.
Understanding the biggest disadvantage in pragmatics is that all these human
concepts are difficult to analyze in a harmonious and objective way. Two people who
are talking do not necessarily explain things indirectly and can also conclude
something else without providing any linguistic evidence that can be pointed to as the
source of meaning which tends to be clear about what is given. For example, the
listener hears the speaker and the listener knows what they say, but the listener does
not know the result of the thought the speaker will communicate. The conclusion is
that pragmatics is interesting because it involves how humans understand and
complement each other from a linguistic point of view, but pragmatics itself also acts
as a scope.
The term pragmatics was first introduced by Charles W. Morris through the
division of semiotics (Djajasudarma, 2012: 60). Pragmatics has two meanings in a
broad and narrow sense. Broadly speaking, pragmatics is defined as one part of
semiotics. This meaning is given by Morris. Pragmatics in this broad sense is used in
various scientific papers related to language problems, including the psychology of
communication and the evolution of symbol systems. Meanwhile, in a narrow sense,
pragmatics is a research condition that has a real reference to language users or
speakers.
Pragmatics is "language in use" or the language used where the study of the
meaning of utterances in certain situations and conditions and the characteristics of
the language itself can be understood through pragmatics, namely how language can
be used in everyday communication. Pragmatic relationships with speech acts are very
strong because speech acts are the main center of pragmatics. According to Firth (in
Djajasudarma, 2012: 60) as a linguist who first suggested a discourse study based on
his thought that the context of the situation is very important to be studied by linguists
or linguists because in language studies and how language works there are contexts
or studies of linguistics that do not exist. can be practiced without considering the
context of the situation.
The differences between semantics as a branch of linguistics and syntactic
as a branch of semiotics, as well as between syntax as a branch of linguistics and
syntax as a branch of semiotics, the word pragmatics comes from the German
Pragmatisch, which was put forward by a German philosopher named Immanuel Kant,
while Pragmatisch from pramaticus which comes from Latin which means good at

6
trading, in Greek Pragmatikos comes from the word Pragma which means action.
Pragmatics had swept the world of linguistics across the United States in the 1970s
and was permeated by the works of philosophers of language such as Austin and
Searle.
Pragmatics can be seen from various aspects, including the study of language
in the communication process, especially the use of language (the relationship
between language elements and the context and situation in the field), problems of
interpretation, the understanding of speech acts, and the influence of sentence
structure due to the relationship between speaker and listener (greeter and addressee).

2.2.2. Context
Context has a very significant role in understanding the meaning of speech or
text. According to the writer, context is very influential for speakers in producing texts
and very influential for speech partners, listeners, or readers in understanding the text.
When the speaker or text maker produces a text, he will think of everything that will
be used as a text reference and he will think of the texts that existed before; who is
invited to speak; or who the readers are.
According to Fillmore in Indrawati (2009: 23), In the past, linguists analyzed
sentences regardless of the context, but nowadays, linguists consider the context in
understanding the meaning of sentences. Refers to the context as an important aspect
to interpret meaning. (Fillmore 1977: 119) says that: “The task is to determine what
we can know about the meaning and context of an utterance given only the knowledge
that the utterance has occurred. I find that whenever I look at a few sentences in
context, I immediately find myself asking what effect it would have if the context
(who was speaking, to whom, for what purpose, how a speaker said, when, and in
which aspects) was slightly different."
Pragmatics and context are like a bicycle and a wheel. a bicycle will not be
able to run normally without wheels, nor will the wheels function properly without a
bicycle. it means that means pragmatics and context are interrelated. In short, it can
be said that context is the state in which a situation occurs. To fully understand the
meaning of a sentence, it is also necessary to understand the context in which it is
spoken. Communication will not be perfect if it does not involve context as an
additional lingual element that should not be ignored in an utterance. Context is very
important to do with pragmatics because the communication that involves context can
make it more communicative, effective, and efficient.

2.2.3. Speech Act

Speech acts are elements that are closely related between speakers and speech
partners or writers and readers. According to Yule (2014: 83-84) developing a theory

7
of speech acts is generally believed to be the basis that language is used to perform an
action, so the underlying understanding focuses on how actions are related to language.
The theory of speech acts was first initiated by Austin (1956). Speech act
theory was developed by Searle (1969) which states that all verbal communication
has speech acts. Searle explained that communication is not just words, symbols, and
sentences. He argues that communication in the form of speech, sentences, and
symbols will produce something tangible, it is a speech act. A speech act is a
pragmatic study that examines language from its constituent aspects.
The speech act is the center and is a tangible unit in pragmatics. Speech acts
are also individual psychological events that determine the occurrence of reciprocity
between the speaker and the speech partner. Speech acts contain various intentions
that can be identified by considering the context of the speaker. Speakers can also
cause speech acts with a specific purpose. Speakers can be creative in using their
language to create language politeness.
The illocutionary speech act theory was introduced by Austin and Searle. In
this study, the writer uses the theory of Searle. The reason the writer uses Searle's
theory is that the theory introduced by Austin is still not conical or still weak. There
are no clear classification principles and there is a lot of overlap. (Searle, 1979: 10).
So, Searle developed Austin’s illocutionary theory into his own version. Searle's
illocutionary theory is divided into five parts, they are directive, commissive,
declarative, expressive, and representative.

2.2.4. Types of Speech Acts

Based on the understanding of speech acts above according to several theories,
it can be concluded that speech acts are the product of an utterance that is
conceptualized by the speaker so that the message or information he aims for can be
achieved or conveyed according to the speaker's goals. Searle (1979) explains that
pragmatically there are three forms of action that can be realized by a speaker, namely
locutionary acts, illocutionary acts, and perlocutionary acts.

2.2.4.1. Locutionary Act

According to Searle (1979: 08) locutionary speech acts are speech acts
intended to state something. Example: "It is cold here", the meaning of the locution is
related to the air temperature in that place. Another example is 'I am thirsty, someone
interprets 'I' in the first person singular (the speaker), and 'thirst' refers to 'the throat is
dry and needs to be filled', without meaning to ask for a drink. In other words,
elocutionary speech acts are speech acts that state something in the sense of "saying"
or speech acts in the form of meaningful and accessible sentences.

8
2.2.4.2. Illocutionary Act
According to Searle (1979: 08) illocutionary act are doing an action by saying
something. In illocutionary speech acts, the speaker states something by using a
special power, which makes the speaker act according to what he is saying. This action
contains meaning related to social function. In the sentence "It is hot here", the
illocutionary meaning may be a request to open a window, or if the sentence is
repeated, it may imply a complaint. Another example: "It's almost eight o'clock." The
sentence above, when spoken by a husband to his wife in the morning, not only
provides information about the time of day, but also reminds the wife that the husband
must go to work immediately, so the husband asks for breakfast. Therefore, the wife
will answer maybe something like the following sentence, “Yes dear! Breakfast will
be ready soon.”.

2.2.4.3. Perlocutionary Act

According to Searle (1979: 09) perlocutionary speech acts perform an action
by saying something. Perlocutionary acts produce an effect or result. the result or
effect caused by the expression on the listener, according to the situation and condition
of the pronunciation of the sentence. The response is not only in the form of words
but also in the form of actions or deeds. This effect or influence can be intentionally
or unintentionally created by the speaker. Example: 'I am thirsty, which is said by the
speaker has an effect on the listener, namely by giving or offering a drink to the
speaker. In the sentence “It is hot here”, based on a certain context (hot air, being in a
room with all the windows and doors closed, for example), the result that will be
obtained is that the window will be opened wide or it will be ignored at all.

2.2.5. Categories of Illocutionary Acts

In this study, the writer uses Searle's theory. Searle states that Austin's theory
is still weak, Searle (1979: 10) states that Austin's theory is weak because there is no
clear or consistent principle or set of principles on the basis of which taxonomy is
constructed. another reason is that there is still a lot of overlap from one category to
another.
In this study, the writer also uses a book entitled “Pragmatics An
Introduction”, written by Jacob L. Mey (2001). According to Searle (1976: 10-15),
there are five kinds of speech acts, they are representative, directive, expressive,
declarative, and commissive.

2.2.5.1. Representative
According to Searle (1979: 12), Representative is a speech act that binds the
speaker to the truth of what he said. This type of speech act is also known as a
representative speech act. The function of this type of speech act is to state, demand,

9
admit, show, report, prove, mention, and speculate. They can be either true or false.
In Searle’s book, there is no example of each category. So, the writer uses Mey’s book
as a reference to make the example. Mey (2001: 120) states representative speech act
is an affirmation of the situation in the world and is divided into several categories,
including claims, statements, and beliefs. For example:
a. I know the president of Indonesia is Joko Widodo (state)
b. I will show my prowess in football (show)
c. I believe you can do it (belief)

2.2.5.2. Directive
According to Searle (1979: 13) directive speech acts are speech forms that
have the aim of influencing the interlocutor so that the intended purpose can be
achieved Included in this type of speech act are the utterances of asking, inviting,
forcing, suggesting, urging, ordering, demanding, ordering, urging, pleading,
challenging, and giving cues. In Searle’s book, there is no example of each category.
So, the writer uses Mey’s book as a reference to make the example. Mey (2001: 120)
states directives speech act embodies an attempt on the part of the speaker to make
the listener do something, to 'direct' her or him towards some goal. For example:
a. Please join me for my graduation party on Saturday (invite)
b. I advise you to think twice before doing anything (advise)
c. Would you let me drive this car? (ask permission)

2.2.5.3. Commissive
According to Searle (1979: 14) commissive illocutionary act is a type of
speech act that binds the speaker to future action. So, it can be concluded that
commissive speech acts are speech forms that have a speech purpose or intent that
affects future actions. The sub-functions contained are promises, offers, swear,
declare, commitment, and threaten. In Searle’s book, there is no example of each
category. So, the writer uses Mey’s book as a reference to make the example. Mey
(2001: 121) states commissive act brings about change in the world by creating an
obligation. however, this obligation is placed on the speaker, not on the listener, as in
the case of a directive. For example:
a. Raise your sword one more time and you will regret it (threat)
b. Do push up 1000 times or I will shoot you (threat)
c. I offer my crews a big ship (offer)
d. I promise to pay it off, tell me your price (promise)

2.2.5.4. Expressive
According to Searle (1979: 16) expressive speech act is a form of speech that
serves to express or show the speaker's psychology of a situation, for example

10
thanking, congratulating, pardoning, blaming, praising, greeting, and condoling. In
Searle’s book, there is no example of each category. So, the writer uses Mey’s book
as a reference to make the example. Mey (2001: 121) states expressive speech act is
express the inner state of the speakers: the expression is essentially subjective and tells
us nothing about the world. For example:
a. Good afternoon everyone. Today is so bright (greet)
b. I'm sorry for my recklessness to have left you alone (apologies)
c. I'm so sorry for the passing of your grandmother (condole)
d. Happy graduation, sweety (congratulate)
e. You’ve helped me a lot, thank you very much (give thanks)

2.2.5.5. Declarative
According to Searle (1979: 17), a declarative is an utterance used by a speaker
with the aim of changing a situation in a certain way after it is spoken. declarative
speech acts are speech performed by the speaker with the intention of creating things
(status, circumstances, etc.), The functions included in this type of speech are speech
with the intention of impressing, deciding, canceling, prohibiting, granting, permitting,
classifying, lifting, appointing, and forgiving. In Searle’s book, there is no example
of each category. So, the writer uses Mey’s book as a reference to make some
examples:
a. from now on I will appoint you as king of the brethren court (appoint)
b. I cancel my promise to you (cancel)
c. As captain I decided to sink this ship (decide)
d. I forgive all your mistakes (forgive)

RESEARCH METHOD

3.1. Research Design

In this study, the writer uses a qualitative method. The data collected were
analyzed the writer’s opinion which is supported by Maxwell (1996: 3) who states
that qualitative study is activities of collecting and analyzing data, modifying and
developing theory, elaborating and or refocusing the research question, and also
identifying and eliminating validity threats are usually all going on more or less
simultaneously, each influencing all of the others.
The writer uses qualitative research especially descriptive qualitative.
According to Bogdan (1982: 28), descriptive research means that the research is
concerned with collecting data to describe a subject as accurately as possible.
Qualitative research is descriptive for the reason that the data collection is in form of
words rather than numbers.
This study describes the illocutionary speech used by Captain Jack Sparrow
in the Pirates of the Caribbean "Dead Men Tell No Tales". The writer collects all data
related to the research, makes observations, and identifies the types of illocutionary
acts in Captain Jack Sparrow’s dialogue. From these data, the writer classifies and
analyzes the types of illocutionary acts used by Captain Jack Sparrow.

3.2. Data Source

The data source used by the writer in this study is Pirates of the Caribbean
“Dead Men Tell No Tales” movie, downloaded from https://adikfilm.rest/pirates-of-
the-caribbean-dead-men-tell-no-tales-2017 on January 1, 2022. The duration of the
film is 2 hours 9 minutes. The genre of this movie is the American swashbuckler
fantasy film, released in May 2017 by Walt Disney Pictures and Jerry Bruckheimer
Films.

3.3. Data Collection Procedure

In this study, the authors divide the collection technique into five stages, as
follows:
1. Downloaded the Pirates of the Caribbean movie from the internet
2. Watch the movie thoroughly and re-watch it
3. Identify the utterances of Captain Jack that contain illocutionary acts
4. Collecting the utterances that contain the illocutionary acts
4. Classify the types of illocutionary acts and their categories
5. Coding the data

3.4. Data Analysis Procedure

The writer used Searle’s (1976) speech act theory of illocutionary act in
analyzing data. There are several procedures, such as:
1. Classifying data containing illocutionary speech acts (representative, directive,
expressive, commissive, and declarative)
2. Explain the reasons why the data found are included in illocutionary acts and
provide examples of the categories (stating, informing, asserting, showing)
3. Determine the most illocutionary acts uttered by Captain Jack Sparrow and describe
why he uttered the most illocutionary acts
4. Draw conclusions from the analysis

14
 CHAPTER IV
RESULT AND DISCUSSION

4.1. Result
The results showed that there were 54 illocutionary acts spoken by Captain
Jack Sparrow. Based on the results, there are 5 types of illocutionary speech acts
spoken by Captain Jack Sparrow, they are representative, directive, expressive,
commissive, and declarative. The most dominant type of illocutionary act spoken by
Captain Jack Sparrow is the representative act with 28 speech frequencies. The
complete data results are presented in the table below.

4.2. Discussion
4.2.1. Representative Speech Acts
4.2.1.1. Stating
1. DATUM STA. 01
A conversation between Captain Jack Sparrow and the crew, as follows:
…
Gibbs : Face it, Jack. Bad luck dogs you day and night.
Captain Jack Sparrow : Now that is a blatant fabrication.
(Time 00:23:45 – 00:23:51)

15
 In the dialogue above, the crew no longer believed Captain Jack Sparrow's
invitation about the treasures that were never profitable. Master Gibbs as Captain Jack
Sparrow's right-hand man and the most loyal person was also disappointed, then Gibbs
states that misfortune always comes to Captain Jack Sparrow. Captain Jack felt the
same way but he covered it up and he stated that Gibbs’ words were made up and just
nonsense by saying “Now that is a blatant fabrication”. Captain Jack Sparrow states
that everything Gibbs said is just nonsense. It is clear that the above conversation is a
representative illocutionary act of stating.

2. DATUM STA. 02
A conversation between Captain Jack Sparrow and Henry Turner, as follows:
…
Henry Turner : No, it can’t be. I’ve spent years searching for this?
The great Jack Sparrow is not some drunk in a cell,
do you even have a ship? A crew? Pants?
Captain Jack Sparrow : A great pirate does not require such intricacies
(Time: 00:34:28 – 00:34:48)

In the dialogue above, Captain Jack Sparrow introduced himself to Henry.

Henry doubts that he is Captain Jack Sparrow, Henry says that Captain Jack Sparrow
is not a drunk without pants in a cell. but Captain Jack Sparrow responds by stating
that great pirates don't always have what Henry says. From the dialogue above,
Captain Jack Sparrow said “A great pirate does not require such intricacies” In this
context, Captain Jack Sparrow states that great pirates don't always have what Henry
says. It is clear that the above conversation is a representative illocutionary act of
stating.

3. DATUM STA. 03
A conversation between Captain Jack Sparrow and Henry Turner, as follows:
…
Henry Turner : The Butcher of the Sea
Captain Jack Sparrow : Him? No, no.. Quite happily, he’s dead. Very,
very dead. Ship went down.
(Time: 00:36:16 – 00:36:37)
…
In the dialogue above, Henry Turner tells Captain Salazar's message to
Captain Jack Sparrow, that Captain Salazar will return to take his revenge. Captain
Jack Sparrow tries to remember Spaniard’s name, and when Captain Jack Sparrow
remembers Captain Salazar, he states that Captain Salazar was long dead and his ship
sank while trying to chase him. Captain Jack Sparrow said “Quite happily, he’s dead.

16
Very, very dead. Ship went down.” In this context, Captain Jack Sparrow states that
Captain Salazar was long dead and his ship sank while trying to chase him. It is clear
that the above conversation is a representative illocutionary act of stating.

4. DATUM STA. 04
A conversation between Captain Jack Sparrow and Carina Smyth, as follows:
…
Carina Smyth : And my neck is to be broken.
Captain Jack Sparrow : Did you know that on occasion, the neck doesn’t
actually break? it just hurts.
(Time: 00:44:34 – 00:45:05)

In the dialogue above, Captain Jack Sparrow and Carina Smyth are ready to
be executed. Beheading for Captain Jack Sparrow and hanging for Smyth. When
Carina Smyth was about to say her last words but Captain Jack Sparrow interrupted
and an argument broke out between the two of them. Carina tells Captain Jack that his
neck will be broken but Captain Jack Sparrow states to Carina that hangings don't
always break but only hurt. Captain Jack Sparrow said “Did you know that on
occasion, the neck doesn’t actually break? it just hurts.” In this context, Captain Jack
Sparrow states to Carina that hangings don't always break but only hurt. it is clear that
the above conversation is a representative illocutionary act of stating.

5. DATUM STA. 05
A conversation between Captain Jack Sparrow and Carina Smyth, as follows:
Captain Jack Sparrow : Give me the Map No Man Can Read.
Carina Smyth : If you could read it. Then it wouldn't be called the
map that no man can read.
Henry Turner : I beg you please, don't argue with her.
Captain Jack Sparrow : Most of the men on this ship can't read. Which
makes all maps The Maps That No Man Can Read.
(Time: 00:55:05 – 00:55:21)

In the dialogue above, Captain Jack Sparrow asks Carina Smyth for a map,
but Carina doubts the pirates. Carina replied to him that if the map was readable then
the name was not The Map No Man Can Read, then Captain Jack Sparrow stated that
all his crew couldn't read and that made all the maps unreadable. Captain Jack Sparrow
said “Most of the men on this ship can't read. Which makes all maps The Maps That
No Man Can Read” In this context, Captain Jack Sparrow states to Carina that he and
his crew cannot read, and that means any map cannot be read. It is clear that the above

 CHAPTER V
CONCLUSION

5.1. Conclusion
In this chapter, the writer makes a conclusion from the analysis of the
illocutionary acts in Pirates of the Caribbean Dead Men Tell No Tales spoken by
Captain Jack Sparrow. The writer has explained in the theoretical framework that
there are five categories of illocutionary acts according to John Searle. In this analysis,
the writer concludes that there are 54 data on illocutionary acts spoken by Captain
Jack Sparrow, including 28 representative acts, 11 directive acts, 10 expressive acts,
4 commissive acts, and 1 declarative act.
The writer has found the function of each type of illocutionary speech act
spoken by Captain Jack Sparrow, including representative acts with the categories of
informing, stating, showing, asserting, and suggesting. directive acts with the
categories of commanding, ordering, and demanding. Expressive acts with the
categories of congratulating, mocking, insulting, disappointing, apologizing, blaming,
praising, and condoling. Commissive acts with the categories of threatening and
promising. Declarative acts with the category of dismissal.
The most dominant illocutionary act spoken by Captain Jack Sparrow is
representative, especially the asserting. because Captain Jack uses his words to assert
something or someone to save himself and his own freedom.
