Abstract

Mastery of language by preschool children is different from adults. Children and adults have quite basic differences in terms of their development process, including in terms of language development. The difference in mastery of the language will of course also affect the patterns of speech delivered. This study aims to describe the form and delivery strategy of Javanese directive speech acts to preschool-aged children. The research was conducted using a qualitative descriptive method. The research data is in the form of speech in the Javanese language of preschool age children. The data was collected using recording and observation techniques. Furthermore, the collected data were analyzed descriptively to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the forms and strategies for delivering Javanese directive speech acts to preschool-aged children. The results of the study show that preschool-age children use directive speech acts in their communication interactions with the modes of asking, inviting, ordering, complaining, asking, forbidding, and allowing. The strategies used in speech acts are direct and indirect strategies.
