Abstract

This study aimed to compare direct and indirect speech acts among young toddlers using various speech situations. This study's main subject was a conversational interaction made by a four-year-old child. The data for this qualitative study were collected through non-participant observations and a recording device to record what the participant said. The findings indicate that the participant's speech acts, whether direct or indirect, were converted into direct speech that was justified and straightforward speech that was on point, whereas indirect speech was gained through praise, sarcasm, and complaints. Future research directions are also highlighted.
