Abstract

Refusal expression is the opposite of a response to acceptance and is very sensitive to several aspects. This research aimed (1) to describe the types of refusal and (2) to describe the strategies of refusal expression found in the Bridgerton series. The type of this research is descriptive qualitative. The data from this research contained excerpts of refusal expressions in the Bridgerton series collected using documentation techniques. Documentation techniques are carried out by watching and reading manuscripts, underlining refusal conversations, and writing them down. The writer used the theory of Beebe et al and Yang in analyzing it. The results showed 9 subcategories of refusal types found in the refusal of requests, refusal of offers, refusal of suggestions, and refusal of invitations categories. In addition, there are 14 subcategories of refusal strategies found in the direct, indirect, and adjunct strategies. The writer found non-performative in direct strategies, statements of regret, wish, explanation, alternative statements, regulating past or future acceptance, statement of principle, threat/statement of negative consequences to the requester, criticize the request or requester, request for help, empathy, and assistance, lack of enthusiasm, and avoidance in the indirect strategies. And the last, pause filler and gratitude or appreciation in adjunct strategies. The indirect strategy is the most dominant, because it can soften the refusal.
