Abstract

ABSTRACT This research is aimed at identifying and describing (1) the types of dispreferred second turns of adjacency pairs performed by the main characters and (2) politeness principles applied in the dispreferred second turns as portrayed in the movie The Duchess. The research used a descriptive qualitative approach. The source of the data was the movie The Duchess. The data of this research were obtained in the form of conversations in the movie transcript containing adjacency pairs. The data were collected through watching the movie, reading, and reexamining the script, then identifying the conversations uttered by the main characters. Next, the data were identified, coded into several terms, put into the data sheets, interpreted based on the context of each datum, discussed, and then concluded to meet the research questions. The findings suggest three points. The first point is that not all types of adjacency pairs are found; there are only sixteen out of twenty nine types which can be found and applied by the main characters. Then, the second point is dispreferred second turns can be found in the data. Even though there are six types of dispreferred second turns found in the data, the dispreferred second turns uttered by the main characters has a function for obtaining appropriate information. The dispreferred second turns are also for revealing apology and accepting an idea or an offer. The third one is that all of six politeness principles are used by the main characters in the movie The Duchess, that is, Tact Maxim, Generosity Maxim, Approbation Maxim, Modesty Maxim, Agreement Maxim, and Sympathy Maxim. The relation with the dispreferred second turns is all considered as polite. The Agreement Maxim is often used by the main characters. This principle creates a situation where the main characters need to be respected for what they do or say.
