Description
In order to do research on the sentences in letter writing, a group of 47 students, non-
English specialization students, were asked to write letters to their friends. This research was
carried out by analyzing 94 letters. There were 94 letters being analyzed because each student
had to write a letter and a reply to one of their friends. The aim of the research is to analyze
the illocutionary acts found in the letters written by non-English specialization students. The
objectives are to explore the illocutionary acts in the sentences from the letters, to classify the
types of the illocutionary acts used in the letters, and to find out which type of illocutionary
acts is the most frequently used and which type of illocutionary acts is the least frequently
used in the letters. Searle‟s theory of illocutionary acts (1976) was used in this study.
According to Searle (1976), the sentences can be identified into five types of illocutionary
acts: representatives, directives, commissives, expressives and declaratives. The findings of
this research are that not all sentences have illocutionary acts; only the first four types of
illocutionary acts can be found in the letters written by those students; the most frequently
used illocutionary acts are expressives because the students have expressed their feeling and
wishes through the sentences in order to communicate and become more familiar; and the
least frequently used illocutionary acts are commissives since the students have not written
about their plans. It is concluded that writing informal letters can communicate well and the
relationship between friends can become stronger as they can present everything without any
prohibition.
