Abstract
This study investigates the use of expressive speech acts in the motivational spoken word performances of Prince EA. Expressive speech acts, which convey the speaker's emotions and attitudes, play a crucial role in persuasive and motivational communication. The aim was to understand how Prince EA effectively engages and inspires his audience through these acts. A qualitative analysis was conducted on a selection of Prince EA's spoken word performances. Using speech act theory as a framework, instances of expressive speech acts were identified and categorized. Data was collected through transcription and thematic analysis of the videos. The analysis revealed a significant presence of expressive speech acts in these performances that cover apologizing, condoling, lamenting, showing attitude, agreeing, using exclamation, wishing, and thanking. These acts were predominantly expressing hope, encouragement, empathy, and personal conviction. The frequent use of these expressions contributed to the emotional resonance and motivational impact of the performances. The findings suggest that the effective use of expressive speech acts enhances the motivational appeal of Prince EA's spoken word performances. By conveying genuine emotions and attitudes, a connection with the audience is created, fostering a sense of empathy and inspiration. Hence, this study highlights the importance of expressive speech acts in motivational speaking and offers insights for speakers aiming to engage and motivate their audiences effectively.Keyword: pragmatic, ethics, speech acts, motivation
本研究调查了 EA 王子激励性口语表演中表达性言语行为的使用情况。表达性言语行为传达了说话者的情感和态度,在说服和激励性交流中起着至关重要的作用。本研究旨在了解 EA 王子如何通过这些行为有效地吸引和激励听众。我们对 EA 王子的部分口语表演进行了定性分析。以言语行为理论为框架,对表达性言语行为的实例进行了识别和分类。数据是通过视频转录和主题分析收集的。分析结果显示,在这些表演中存在大量的表达性言语行为,包括道歉、慰问、哀叹、表明态度、同意、使用感叹词、祝愿和感谢。这些行为主要是表达希望、鼓励、同情和个人信念。这些表达方式的频繁使用增强了表演的情感共鸣和激励效果。研究结果表明,有效使用表达性言语行为能增强 EA 王子口语表演的激励吸引力。通过传达真实的情感和态度,与观众建立联系,培养共鸣感和激励感。因此,本研究强调了表现性言语行为在激励性演讲中的重要性,并为演讲者有效地吸引和激励听众提供了启示。 关键词:实用主义、伦理、言语行为、激励
