Analysis
1.
Describe characteristic
participants of the conversation?
-
Putri Nilam R
She is an active
speaker, she always over acting and expressive in her utterances. She says
something quickly in the conversation. It seems on the utterances number 3 and
number 8. She gives stressed for the word “HOT” and “HUNGry”.
-
Nur Hajah H
She is little
passive speaker. She always thinks too long time before answer the questions, such
in the utterance of number 13. Just little different with Putri, Ningrum is a calm girl it shows by
the utterances that are very low, for example in the utterances of number 9.
2.
Explain 5 aspects marked!
-
For the utterances number 13,
there are two aspects:
a.
(omh) ((Thinking)) it’s called as backchannels.
Backchannel means mark about nonverbal utterances in the conversation.
b.
(0, 7) it’s call as pause.
From the aspects
above we know that Ningrum needs time to think about the answer of Putri’s
question, so there is a pause for
seven second in the middle of utterance.
-
Second utterance by Ningrum shows that there is
aspect of lengthening :: , because Ningrum says by
long sound in the ending.
-
Sixth and seventh utterances have overlap
// mark, when Putri and Ningrum said p.m at the same time in the conversation.
-
High consideration is in the
third utterance; “HOT” with the capital letters it shows that speaker wants to
make sure that the day is very hot, so she stressed the word in the
conversation.
