•Responds appropriately and
effectively to a speech act.
What is speech act?
Speech act is an utterance that a speaker
makes to achieve an intended effect. Some of
the functions which are carried out using
speech acts are offering an apology, greeting,
request,
complaint, invitation, compliment, or refusal.
 A speech act might contain just one
word or several words or sentences. For
example, “Thanks” and “Thank you
for always being there for me. I really
appreciate it” both show appreciation
regardless of the length of the
statement.
Three Types of Speech Act
According to J. L. Austin (1962), a philosopher
of language and the developer of the Speech
Act
Theory, there are three types of acts in every
utterance, given the right circumstances or
context.
 1. Locutionary act

is the actual act of uttering. It occurs

when the speaker performs an utterance
(locution) which has a meaning in traditional
sense.
This act happens with the utterance of a
sound, a word, or even a phrase as a natural
unit of speech.
What is required for the utterance to be a
locutionary act is that has sense and, has the
same meaning to both (the speaker and
listener)

Example:
-"Wash the dishes"
-"WHAT!" (when someone is surprise)
