| Abstract | ||||
| Speech act theory, thought foreshadowed by the Austrian philosopher Ludwing Wittgenstien's views about language games, is usually attributed to the Oxford philosopher J. L. Austin. Speech act refer to a theory which analyses the role of utterances to relate the behavior of speaker and hearer in interpersonal communication. The basic ideas, which were formed by him in the late 1930s, were presented in his lectures given at Oxford in 1952- 54, and later in his William James lectures delivered at Harvard in 1955. Speech act is a part of pragmatics where there are certain aims beyond the words or phrases when a speaker says something. Speech acts are acts that refer to the action performed by produced utterances. People can perform an action by saying something . Through speech acts, the speaker can convey physical action merely through words and phrases. The conveyed utterances are paramount to the actions performed. | ||||
