Abstract

This thesis explores the speech acts and functions of Eric Nam and Taecyeon Utterance in the Daebak Show Dive Studio Podcast. The research aims to answer three research questions: 1) What types of speech acts are used by Nam and Taecyeon in the podcast? 2) What is the most dominant speech act used by Nam and Taecyeon in the podcast? 3) What are the functions of speech acts used by Nam and Taecyeon in the podcast?

Using qualitative descriptive techniques, the thesis uses theories from G. Yule (1996), J. R. Searle (1976), and J. L. Austin (1962) to analyze the data. The study reveals 133 speech act utterances, divided into locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary acts. Additionally, 129 utterances of speech act functions were discovered, including 44 representative, 38 expressive, 41 directive, and 6 commissive utterances. The results provide a comprehensive analysis of speech act utterances and their functions, each categorized according to its category.
