Let’s Understand
Speech Act Theory was first proposed by John Langshaw Austin in 1962
and later developed by John-Roger Searle in 1969. According to them, language
conveys not only information but also carry out actions. This theory focuses on the
speaker’s intention with his/her utterances. Thus, it regards language as an action to
be performed instead as a medium of conveying ideas.
The speech act is the action of the utterances. Words do not only convey ideas or
information, but it intends to have the action be performed. When the speaker utters
words, he/she is expressing his/her intention. However, this intention has the tendency to
be misunderstood or not understood at all. The communicators need to know the different
types of speech acts to ensure the success of communication.
Speech Situation. The speakers need to clean the guest room because a relative will
stay for the weekend.
Speaker A: Uncle Bert will stay for the weekend. He will stay in the guest room.
Speaker B: I will clean the guest room right away.
