Abstract

This research focuses on assertive utterances which are uttered by Aung San Suu Kyi. The aims of this study are to describe the types of focuses of assertive utterance, to describe the implicature of assertive utterance, and to explain the maxim flouted. The data are taken from utterances containing assertives which are uttered by Aung San Suu Kyi in the BBC news entitled “State Counsellor: Some Success, But We Are Not Home and Dry Yet”, and NHK World Japan news website entitled “Exclusive: Interview with Aung San Suu Kyi”. The researcher uses Kreidler’s theory to analyze the focuses of assertive utterance, Grice’s theory of implicature and Brown and Levinson’s theory of speech context, and also Grice’s theory to identify the flouting maxim. The findings of this research show that (1) Types of focuses found are focus of information, focus on manner of communicating, and focus on the aspect. (2) The most dominant implicature found in the interview done by Aung San Suu Kyi is conventional implicature because the reader can make their own interpretation directly from the grammatical form and vocabulary. (3) There are two flouting maxims which have equal amount namely, flouting maxim of quantity and flouting maxim of manner.
