“…Studies have been done to reveal what and how politeness is employed at the level of words, sentences, and at the discourse level both in learners' spoken and written request (Eshghinejad & Moini, 2016;Mohammadi, Nejadansari, & Manijeh, 2015;Ren & Gao, 2012;Li & Taguchi, 2014;Wijayanto, Prasetyarini, & Hikmat, 2017;Yazdanfar & Bonyadi, 2016;Zhu, 2012). The studies have revealed that social distance, culture, rank, gender, and status routinely determine the politeness strategy employed in interaction.…”

This study is an attempt to examine politeness markers employed by Indonesian English teachers in classroom interactions. Purposefully chosen English teachers were observed, audio-recorded, and analyzed by using the politeness principle and Gricean cooperative principle. The conversation analysis revealed that to mitigate the illocutionary act of request, aside from using internal modifiers at most (consultative device, politeness markers, hesitators, hedges, play-downs, committers, down-toners, understaters), the teachers also used external devices as an adjunct to the head acts (grounder, sweetener, and disarmer). Besides, teachers intentionally violated the maxim for the sake of extending the talk. Further research needs to include more participants and instruments in a wider area of analysis.

In instructional interactions, a lecturer should be able to build harmony in a conducive classroom atmosphere in order that a learning objective can be attained. This study aims to describe recounting as the realization of Brown and Levinson's positive politeness strategies in instructional interactions in the classroom. The subjects of this study were six lecturers from the Satya Wacana Christian University Salatiga. The research data were in the form of lecturer utterances when lecturing. The data were collected using the participant observation, records methods and fieldnotes, in addition, interviews were held with the lecturers being investigated. The data analysis was performed using descriptive techniques following the Miles and Huberman flow model. Based on the results of data analysis, it revealed that the recounts employed included ones about lecturers, students, lecturers' experiences, and public figures/attitudes of public figures. These findings can be used to strengthen and revise the positive politeness sub-strategies of Brown and Levinson (1987). In addition to functioning to forge a close relationship with interactants, the recounting strategy also serves to instill character values and to motivate. students to be more disciplined, and to optimize their own potential of becoming creative students. The use of recount as a positive politeness substrategy has contributed to efforts to create humanistic-based learning.

Points out that the study of regional dialects must be analyzed in terms of linguistic properties and how the language users respond and evaluate those certain dialects (Eshghinejad dan Moini, 2016).…”
