Abstract

The study of speech acts examines how an utterance demonstrates an activity. Locutionary speech acts, illocutionary speech acts, and perlocutionary speech acts are the three categories into which it is separated. Nevertheless, this study will use John Roger Searle's theory of speech acts to discuss illocutionary speech acts. The classification of illocutionary speech acts and the purpose of illocutionary speech acts given by the protagonist in Florian Zeller's film script, The Father, are the two primary subjects of this study. Descriptive qualitative research is therefore used in this study to examine every statement made by the main character. The five categories of assertive, directive, commissive, expressive, and declarative will be used to classify each statement. According to the study's findings, 40 utterances were found to be a part of the illocutionary speech act. Eleven of the data are assertive, nineteen are directive, six are commissive, five are expressive, and none are declarative. Because Anthony, the primary character in The Father, is constantly trying to get his audience to do something for him, directive speech acts are the ones that the key characters employ the most. Meanwhile, assertive speech acts serve three distinct purposes, according to the findings of a study on the function of illocutionary speech acts: stating with five data, describing with three data, and complaining with three data. There are three functions in directive speech acts: asking with 14 data, requesting with 2 data, and commanding with 3 data. The last speech act is an expressive speech act with three functions: thanking with two data, welcoming with one data, and apologizing with two data. Commissive speech acts have one function, which is swearing with six data. Because Anthony usually seems to have a lot of questions for his audience, the question-asking tool is the most often used one.
