Abstract

This research studies about strategies of request in moi – yan Hak – ka language in Medan. The objectives of this study were: (1) to describe strategies of request used by moi-yan Hakkanese, (2) to explain the type of strategies of request which considered as polite by moi-yan Hakkanese, (3) to explain the social factors that are used as the main consideration for politeness in moi-yan Hakkanese, and (4) to explain the reason why that type of strategies were considered as polite by moi-yan Hakkanese. The data were taken from the utterances of Hakkanese in Medan. This study used qualitative design. The subjects were six Hakkanese. The instruments used to gain the data were observation and interview the informants. The data were analysed by using data reduction, data display and conclusion; drawing and verification. The findings showed that moi-yan Hakkanese used three main types of strategies of request, namely direct request in mood derivable, hedge performative, and want statement whereas in conventionally indirect request namely suggestory formulae and query preparatory, and in non-conventionally indirect request were strong hints and mild hints. There were two types of strategies of request which considered as polite in moi – yan Hakka language, namely direct request in mood derivable and conventionally indirect request in query preparatory. There were three social factors that used as the main consideration in moi – yan Hakka language, namely relative power, social distance and rank of imposition. The reason why the two types of strategies request were considered as polite by moi-yan Hak – ka language because with direct request in mood derivable the speaker could convey the request directly and clear on the hearer, and should be applied with polite words and kinship form. Whereas conventionally indirect request in query preparatory, the speaker requested about the hearer’s ability to do something by using polite question tag and kinship form as well.
