“…Particularized conversational implications ( PCI), on the other hand, is intimately connected with specific or specific situations and is sometimes referred to as ad-hoc implicature. The efficiency of these inferences is tied to knowledge of certain contextual facts (Abdel-Karim, 2020; Akmal & Yana, 2020). For instance, if someone asked Person A, "are you going to visit person B tonight," and person A responded, "I have to take care of my kids," it indicates that they cannot visit person B.…”

“…The scalar implicature (SI) is centred on linguistic terms such as some or must, etc. Such phrases indicate an information-organized scale (Akmal & Yana, 2020;Abdul-Kareem, 2019;Ali, 2020). The scales such as <Must/may>, <Many/some/all>, <Often/always/sometimes>, etc (Chen, 2020).…”

“…To anticipate and understand CI and clarify how they occur and are understood, Grice developed a theory (Diliana, 2019). The core function of this theory is the Cooperative Principle (CP) and related maxims (Abdul-Kareem,2019;Allan,2001;Akmal & Yana, 2020). To some degree, Neo-Gricean theories change the concepts of Grice.…”

According to linguistic theory, conversational Implicature (CI) is the original intent of the speech expressed by a speaker. The assumption is that both the speaker and the receiver understand and respect the communication rules. In conversation theory, this is the significant component that has been the subject of discussion. This study investigates the importance of CI in various contexts of daily conversations. The focus of this study is to identify the violation of Grice’s theory in the conversation. There is a shortcoming in literature to investigate CI in everyday conversations. Moreover, some studies focussed on specific discussions, which led to a literature gap. The study’s outcome will assist researchers in exploring new ideas in conversational implicatures. In addition, it reveals the shortcomings of the usage of implicatures. In this study, the researchers analyzed a set of 77 daily conversations. The study showed that context is critical in determining the meaning of a person’s thoughts. In addition, the finding suggests that particularized CI are primarily employed in daily conversations.

The goal of the conversation process is to convey information and the understanding of that information smoothly. In order to achieve that, both of the speaker and listener are expected to use language effectively. This research aims at analyses the use of conversational maxims of the BTS members’ utterances in the BTS Run reality show by using Grice’s theory of cooperative principle. The objectives of this research are to find out the types of conversational maxims used by BTS on the BTS Run reality show with Cooperative Principal theory. Qualitative is applied as the research method in this research. The data are the utterances of BTS members in the BTS Run reality show that contains implied meaning. The result of this research shows that the members of BTS often violate the maxim of quantity over other maxims. Keywords: conversational, maxims, cooperative principle, BTS

“…However, this study focused on analyzing written conversational implicature. Even so, several past researchers also considered researching the written conversational implicature, such as Igwedibia (2017), Akmal & Yana (2020), and Ariyanti et.al (2020) who analyzed Conversational Implicature in books with general topics. Therefore, this study focused on the educational topic which is specifically related to the analysis of students' textbooks.…”

Indonesian government provides both national schools and international schools with different English exposures and different language uses that are implemented in the textbooks. Considering the importance of understanding implicature for students, it needs to be investigated what type of textbook has sufficient resources of implicature for students� learning. Nevertheless, there is a small number of previous researchers that consider comparing textbooks from different types of schools with different curricula in terms of conversational implicature. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the types and analyze the implied meaning of conversational implicature and flouting of Grice�s maxim that is used in When English Rings a Bell for Junior High School and Cambridge Global English for Lower Secondary textbooks, as well as to find the distinctions that are shown in both textbooks in terms of the implicature. This study employed a descriptive qualitative research method with a content analysis approach. This study found that there were 19 conversations from 241 pages collected from When English Rings a Bell and 17 conversations from 152 pages from Cambridge Global English for Lower Secondary which were categorized into GCI and PCI as well as the four maxims (Quality, quantity, relevance, and manner). Therefore, the percentage for the occurrence of conversational implicature and the flouting of the maxim is higher in the international textbook. In conclusion, as the whole comparison, the most noticeable distinction shown in both textbooks is in terms of the way both textbooks provide content of the learning material in the form of conversation. It is also shown the different level of language use in both textbooks that will affect the complexity of the implied meaning in the conversations where the international textbook provides conversations with clearer context and the implied meaning are way more complex.
