14 ABSTRACT Bagaskara Widyan Shimatora Politeness Maxim on Advertisements Found in Commercial Breaks on Television and Internet. English Study Program, Dian Nuswantoro University. Adviser: Sunardi, SS., M.Pd. Key words: internet, politeness maxim, television, taglines, utterances This study is aimed at investigating politeness maxim that occur in the taglines in television and internet, and analyzing the possible meaning of politeness maxim taglines. The researcher used descriptive qualitative method to find out the types of politeness maxim and the possible meanings that contained in the taglines. The data of this research were taken from taglines from two different sources data; television and internet on July, The result showed that there are 30 politeness maxim taglines, which are mostly produced by the television (12 taglines) consisting of 3 tact maxim, 3 approbation maxim, 1 modesty maxim, and 5 agreement, while in internet, there are (18 taglines) consisting of 7 tact maxim, 6 generosity maxim, 3 approbation maxim and 2 agreement maxim. It happens since the writer or editor wants to make the consumer understand the implied meaning of the tagline. On the other hands, the occurrences of politeness maxim taglines in television taglines are less than internet taglines. It shows that the writer or editor of television taglines do not have problems to explain the utterance. However, in internet taglines they are also hard to understand because of the use of technical terms in case of interpretation meaning implied which may create confusion among the readers. xii

15 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study Language is a means of communication used to convey a message or information. Conveying a message or information can be done in a communication by written or spoken. Spoken or oral communication is a direct conversation between the speaker and the hearer. Communication is the transfer of message from one person to the others (Fiske, 1991: 39). Communication is the process by wich any message is given or received through talking, writing, or making gesture. Communication happens in many levels even for one single action, in many different ways, and for most beings, as well as certain machines. Communication is a process whereby information is enclosed in a package and is discrete and imparted by sender to a receiver via a channel or medium. Channel or medium is a media to convey message from the sender to receiver. The receiver then decodes the message and give the sender a feedback. Communication requires that all parties have an area of communication commonality. We know that we have something problem that cannot be predicted, no exception when we research about the language usage in the advertisements that we often find and it has an implied meaning inside. They are frequently encountered in commercial breaks in television, magazines, newspapers, and even is sometimes also show some ads also frequently appear on television. Pragmatics is the study of those relations between language and context that are grammaticalized, or encoded in the structure of a language. The idea that pragmatics is the study of aspects of language that required reference to the users of the language then lead to a very natural, further restriction of the term in analytical philosophy. The philosophical, and especially logical, interest in 1

16 2 these terms is simply that they account for the potential failure of generally valid schemes of reasoning. The use of politeness in conversation is important to create the comfortable atmosphere between the speaker and the hearer. Politeness according to Brown and Levinson (1987: 14) is the expression of the speaker s intention to mill gate face threats carried by certain face threatening acts toward another. Based on sources that have been found in dictionary website and internet website about advertising or advertizing in business is a form of marketing communication used to encourage, persuade, or manipulate an audience (viewers, readers or listeners; sometimes a specific group) to take or continue to take some action. Most commonly, he desired result is to drive consumer behavior with respect to a commercial offering, although political and ideological advertising is also common. This type of work belongs to a category called afective labor. As the introduction that will be discussed in the context of this research, there are few examples that will be delivered as warming up. Cocacola in one of the beverage names familiar in your ears. It has a tag line continuous quality is quality you trust. Politeness maxim has an implicit meaning of generosity maxim because this maxim Minimize the expression of beliefs that express or imply benefit to self; maximize the expression of beliefs that express or imply cost to self. According to Leech (1983:133), this would imply that politeness in conversation is more strongly focused on "other" than on "self", there is a politeness principle with conversational maxims similar to those formulated by Paul Grice. He lists six maxims: tact, generosity, approbation, modesty, agreement, and symphaty. The first and second form a pair, as do the third and the fourth. These maxims vary form culture to culture: what may be considered polite in one culture may be strange or downright rude in another.

17 3 In tagline the writer tells about word, clause, and sentence means which give a message or implicit meaning that is contained in this commercial break. This study tries to knowing the means in the commercial break, using politeness maxims to study the problems. They include: Tact maxim, Generosity maxim, Approbation maxim, Modesty maxim, Agreement maxim, Symphaty maxim. This research wants to tell the relationship between politeness maxims and advertisement on television and internet. It wants to explain about the implied meaning and make it comprehend to makes the consumers understand the information from this advertisement. 1.2 Statement of the Problem Based on researcher, the problem of the study are: 1.

It is to evaluate how tagline commercial break expresses and negotiates to say or write. In this study, the researcher concerns on tact maxim, generosity maxim, approbation maxim, modesty maxim, agreement maxim, and symphaty maxim elements produced by tagline on advertisement at television or internet. 1.4 Objective of the Study Based on the statement of problem, this research is aimed: 1.

19 CHAPTER 2 REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE 2.1 Linguistics Linguistics studies the nature of language and tries to establish a theory of language and describe language in the light of the theory established. It is a science in the sense that is scientifically studies the rules, systems, and principles of human language. Linguistics has many sub fields concerned with particular aspects of linguistics stucture. These sub fields range from those focused primarily on meaning. The major sub fields of linguistics are Macro linguistics and Microlinguistics. Macro linguistics is a branch of linguistics that studies how language and meaning function within human social function. A macro linguistics study includes sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, stylistics, discourse analysis, applied linguistics, and etc. However, the micro level is often equatedwith the variation and face to face communication. Micro linguistics refers to honetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, pragmatics, and semantics. 2.2 Pragmatics Pragmatics as a branch of linguistics study has relations between language and context in language. Pragmatics also studies about utterances and setences which appear in daily life. Pragmatics also explores how listener and readers can make inferences about what is said or written in order to arrive at an interpretation of users intended meaning. Pragmatics studies the context within which an interaction occurs as well as the intention of the language user. On of the motivations for research in pragmatics might then be to establish the effects of the uses of language structure. The distinction between sentence and utterance is of fundamental importance to both semantics and pragmatics. Essentially, we want to say that the sentence is an abstract theoretical entity defined within a theory of 5

20 6 grammar, while utterance is the issuance of a sentence, a sentence analogue, or sentence fragment, in an actual content. The relation between an utterance is corresponding sentence may be quite obscure (e.g the utterance may be eliptical or contain sentence fragments or false starts). Lyons (1997: 88) advocates distinctions between text sentences and system sentences, sentence types and sentence tokens, utterance types and utterances tokens, and utterances acts and utterance products. In term of linguistics, pragmatics is not only relates with utterance and sentence but also the context. The context that we choose in daily communication which others decided an affect in our social interaction. So, we must be careful to choose the utterances. The important part that have affect for our social interaction and must be warned such as: politeness and formality, and both explicit and implicit linguistic features. 2.3 Politeness Maxims According to Leech, there is a politeness principle with conversational maxims similar to those formulated by Paul Grice. These maxims vary from culture to culture: what may be considered polite in one culture may be strange or downright rude in another. The first and second form is a pair, as do the third and the fourth too Politeness Notions In this part, two notions of politeness should be differentiated: a. Common politeness Being politeness means showing good manners and consideration for other people (e.g. open the door for a lady, give your seat to an eldery person in public transport) b. Linguistic politeness The way people choose to speak and how the hearers react to their speech.

21 7 Politeness is essentially asymmetrical: what is polite with respect to speaker, and vice versa Politeness Scales The degree of politeness of an illocution can be measured by scales: a) Cost benefit scales This indicates cost and benefit of proposition to hearer (benefit to hearer = greater politeness; cost to hearer = less politeness) b) Indirectness scale This indicates degree of politeness on the basis of evaluating the same propositional content under increasingly indirect kinds of illocution (higher optionally = greater politeness) c) Optionally scale This indicates how far the performance of an illuocution is at the act choice of hearer (higher optionally = greater politeness) According to Leech (1983:133), this would imply that politeness in conversation is more strongly focused on "other" than on "self", there is a politeness principle with conversational maxims similar to those formulated by Paul Grice. He list six maxims: tact, generosity, approbation, modesty, agreement, and symphaty. The first and second form a pair, as do the third and the fourth. These maxims vary from culture to culture: what may be considered polite in one culture may be strange or downright rude in another. 2.4 Kinds of Politeness Maxim The Tact Maxim The tact maxims states: minimixe the expression of beliefs which imply cost to other; maximize the expression of beliefs which imply benefit to other. The first part of this maxim fits in with Brown and Levinson s negative politeness

22 8 strategy of minimizing the imposition, and the second part reflects the positive politeness strategy of attending to hearer s interest, wants, and needs: Could I interrupt you for a second? If I could just clarify this then The Generosity Maxim Leech s Generosity maxim states: minimize the expression of beliefs that express or imply benefit to self; maximize the expression of beliefs that express or imply cost to self. Unlike the tact maxim, the maxim of generosity focuses on the speaker, and says that the others shoulds be put first instead of the self. You relax and let me do the dishes. You must come and have dinner with us The Approbation Maxim The Approbation maxim states: minimize the expression of beliefs which express dispraise of other; maximize the expression of beliefs which express approval to other. It is preferred to praise others and if this impossible, to sidestep the issue, to give some sort of minimal response (possibly through the use of euphemisms), or to remain silent. The first part of the maxim avoids disagreement; the second part intends to make other people feel good by showing solidarity. I heard you singing at the karaoke last night. It sounded you were enjoying yourself! The Modesty Maxim Maxim of modesty is one of the six maxims proposed by Leech (1983) in his PP (Politeness Principle) meaning to minimize praise or to maximize dispraise

23 9 of self. The Modesty maxim states: minimize the expression of praise of self; maximize the expression of dispraise of self. Oh, I m so stupid I didn t make a note of our lecture! Did you? The Agreement Maxim The Agreement maxim runs as follows: minimize the expression of disagreement between self and other; maximize the expression of agreement between self and other. It is in line with Brown an Levinson s positive politeness strategies of seek agreement and avoid disagreement, to which they attach great importance. However, it is not being claimed that people totally avoid disagreement. It is simply observed that they are much more direct in expressing agreement, rather than disagreement. A: I don t want my daughter to do this, I want her to do that. B: yes, but ma am, i thought we resolved this already on your last visit The Sympathy Maxim The sympathy maxim states: minimize antipathy between self and other; maximize sympathy between self and other. This include a small group of speech act such as congratulation, commiseration, and expressing condolences all of which is in accordance with Brown and Levinson s positive politeness strategy of attending to the hearer s interests, wants, and needs. I am sorry to hear about your father. 2.5 Advertisement Marketing communication is one the most important factors in an organisations success on the market. More and more organisations are moving forward to use marketing communication to reach its customers, and the

24 10 competition is getting harder. Marketing communication can be used in several different ways and it is important to find the way that will gain the best result. The purpose with marketing communication is to make the organisation and its products well known for its customers along with keeping the customers conscious about the organization (Engdahl 2006, Iyer, Sobermann & Villas Boas 2005). Advertising, mass media advertising to be more precise, has played a major role in business to consumer marketing, and enabled companies to meet communication and other marketing objectives. (Minh Hou Poh & Adam, 2007) There are two general forms of marketing communications that are being used by organisations on a daily basis: External and Internal Communication. Internal communications means the communication that the organisations uses to reach out to its employees within the organisation. Employees work as an internal customer and it is as important to keep the satisfied as it is with the external customers. A customer usually starts its buying process by processing the information sent out by different organisations as mass communications, for example TV advertisement or outdoor advertisements. They then build up a brand knowledge and creates a stronger need for the product in question. When the customer later on feels like they have a need for more information they reach out to the organisation, usually a sales representative, to find out more about the offer. The organisation then has their chance to convince the customer by relationship communications (Dahlqvist & Linde, 2002). Advertising Models and Theories Linsa Karlsson (2007:6). For advertising to be succesful, it is not enough to send out a message and then hope for result. Customers are today exposed to more advertisements each day and this can be annoying to them. On the market today, customers tend to have a more negative attitude towards advertising and this makes it harder for organisations to reach their audience. Because of all this advertising

25 11 strategy is getting of higher importance and it essential for organisations to have a clear strategy to follow (Zanot, 1981:4). It s may believe that creating advertising is all about creating the ultimate message and choose the perfect media channel, but there is so much more behind all of that. The right strategies have to be created and an advertising plan has to be set in action. There are several theories and models on how organisations can create a good advertising campaign today (Jobber, 2004). Literature on advertising contains several different models that have been published by authors over a long period of time. These theories and models are today being thaught to advertising students around the world and may be seen as essential in the work within advertising. A high amount of Universities uses literature including these models as their core text today (Lincoln University 2007, University of the Sunshine Coast 2007). For several decades, marketing executive and academics have attemped to develop formal theories of how advertising works. With the aim of facilitating the design of advertisements and the practical execution of campaign. These theories appear in marketing textbooks and have been taught by marketing educators to succesive generations of students in the business management field. (Gabriel, Kottasz & Bennet, 2006, p.505). However, the models taught to students today havemet a high amount of criticism on the market. The researcher in this study are one of the students that are being exposed to these models in the core literature at the University and does together with other students question how relevant these models are. As Jobber (2004) says, it is hard to devise a theory on how advertising is effective. To set up theories and models on advertising is not always appreciated. Business people, marketing and advertising professionals included, rarely have much time for theory... Advertising professionals are pratical people who develop experience in particular areas and know what works for them in a give situation.. (Hackley, 2005, p.26 27).

26 CHAPTER 3 RESEARCH METHOD 3.1 Research Design This research used descriptive qualitative method. It used qualitative method because the collected data were in form of sentences, phrases, clauses, words, and they were classified into politeness maxim categories to get conclusion. It also used descriptive method because the data were gathered, composed, analyzed and interpreted descriptively. 3.2 Unit of Analysis Unit of analysis of this research are every clause in advertisement of commercial break or tagline used in television and internet. 3.3 Source of Data The data were written text that were taken from advertisements in commercial breaks.

This tagline can be divided into 5 units in data tables as source of data analysis based on the name of brands. 3.4 Techniques of Data Collection The data of this research were collected by using the following steps: 1. Selecting The researcher selected advertisements as a source of data by downloading from internet, watching television, and reading magazine from internet. 12

27 13 2. Reading The researcher read and comprehended the advertisements. 3. Collecting The researcher collected the data with organized process of politeness maxim by the advertisements. 3.5 Techniques of Data Analysis The data were analyzed by using the following steps: 1. Indentifiying politeness maxim type used of advertisements on television and internet. 2. Classifying types of politeness maxim. 3. Interpreting types of politeness maxim. 4. Drawing the conclusion.

28 CHAPTER 4 DATA ANALYSIS This chapter covers the analysis and the result of the study. The researcher analyzed the data after the data were collected. Once more, the aims of this study are to find out the kinds of politeness maxim in the taglines of the commercial break on television and internet and also to describe the interpretations which arise in the tagline words in the commercial break. As mentioned in previous chapter, the study focused on politeness principles about politeness maxim according to Leech s (1983:133) theoretical framework. In this chapter, every analysis is divided into two kinds: data Description and maxim Interpretations. 4.1 Politeness Maxims in the Television and Internet Advertisement This research identifies 6 types of politeness maxim found in the television and internet taglines. The maxim mostly occurred both in television and internet commercial break with total number of politeness maxim reached to 30 taglines. These taglines are dominated by tact maxim in which the total is 10, followed by agreement maxims in which the total is 7. For generosity maxims and approbation maxims, both of them have the same total. It is 6. The least is modesty maxim in which the total is 1. There is no sympathy maxim found in the data. On the other hand, these taglines were collected by random sampling from the television and internet, from which there are 30 taglines that have possibility of politeness maxim occurrences. The sources of the data are found in July Below is the table that indicates the occurrences of politeness maxims in the commercial break on television and the internet. 14

In other case, the researcher also found that the tagline that is

31 17 functioned as sympathy maxim is absent within the television and internet commercial break. In this research the generosity maxim occurs 5 cases used in different taglines on different brand. Approbation maxim occurs 6 cases used in different taglines on different brand. In modesty maxim there is only 1 cases that used in sport taglines, in which on sport brand. And the last, agreement maxim occurs in 8 cases that used in different taglines on different brand.
