Abstract

This content analysis delves into the exploration of types and functions of illocutionary acts within a video podcast of Najwa Shihab. For the sake of a comprehensive analysis, rigorous transcription procedures were utilized. The result revealed that there were five illocutionary acts namely: 1) representative (21 items)—conveying information, 2) directive (39 items)—eliciting specific responses, 3) commissive (5 items)—indicating willingness or obligation, 4) expressive (4 items)—showing reactions, and 5) declarative (0 items). Thus, the types and functions of illocutionary acts have the potential to effectively and strategically interact with interlocutors. The study provides insight into managing interaction with students.
