Abstract

This paper entitled "The Realization of Requestive Speech Acts in Sundanese
(A Case Study at SMUN 2 Kuningan)" is aimed at finding the most common patterns
orstrategies ofrequestive speech acts in Sundanese by identifying the social variables
and politeness implications of suchpatterns.
This study employed qualitative research design. The respondents of this
research were 18 males and 12 females ofthe second grade students ofa Senior High
School in Kuningan. The data were collected through Discourse Completion Tests
(DCTs) and analyzed byusing Blum-Kulka's (1989) framework.
This research found that the respondents manifested the requests in various
strategies, i.e. mood derivable, explicit performatives, hedged performatives, locution
derivable, want statement, suggestory formula, preparatory, strong hints, and mild
hints. The study reveals that the most commonly used request strategy is preparatory,
viewed from the nature of preparatory strategy as polite strategy, which means that
most respondents use polite utterances. In addition, the result of common patterns
shows that social variables such as: power, social distance and ranking ofimposition
play arole in the realizations ofrequestive strategy by the respondents. For example,
when gender is a function, this study found that males and females manifest different
strategies when requesting. As an alternative strategy, males used mood derivable
strategy frequently than females, where it was informal-setting, high-relative power
and close-social distance conditions. Females preferred using want statement to mood
derivable. Finally, this study concludes that preparatory is the most appropriate
requestive strategy that is also considered as the polite strategy. The use of this
strategy is related to politeness and social variables, the higher requestee's social
position, the more polite the requester in making a request.
