The data were collected using observational non-participatory method.

The data were analyzed using the theory of declarative speech acts proposed by Searle & Vanderveken (1985). The data were also equalized using pragmatic identify method. In addition, the technique in this research involved pragmatic competence used in equalizing the theory of Sudaryanto (2015).
