Classification of Speech Act

truth of a proposition. Some examples of an assertive act are suggesting, putting
forward, swearing, boasting, and concluding.

Example:
No one makes better pancakes than I do.

2. Directive – a type of illocutionary act in which the speaker tries to make the addressee
perform an action. Some examples of a directive act are asking, ordering, requesting,
inviting, advising, and begging.

Example:
Please close the door.

3. Commissive – a type of illocutionary act which commits the speaker to doing


something in the future. Examples of a commissive act are promising, planning, vowing,
and betting.

Example:
From now on, I will participate in our group
activity.

4. Expressive – a type of illocutionary act in which the speaker expresses his/her feelings
or emotional reactions. Some examples of an expressive act are thanking, apologizing,
welcoming, and deploring.
Example:
I am so sorry for not helping out in our group projects and letting
you do all the work.
5. Declaration – a type of illocutionary act which brings a change in the external
situation. Simply put, declarations bring into existence or cause the state of affairs which
they refer to. Some examples of declarations are blessing, firing, baptizing, bidding,
