By mastering pragmatic competence, it is expected that language learners comprehend how to use the language and how to interpret the meaning of the language in a particular setting. This study attempts to explore the realization of the speech act of requesting in a movie entitled Freedom Writers. To be specific, this study aims to figure out strategy types and modification devices of requesting used by the characters in the movie as well as its pedagogical implication for English language learning. By employing a case study design, this study analyzed the script of the movie and classified the request under the framework of A Cross-Cultural Study of Speech Act Realization Patterns (CCSARP). The findings reveal that mood derivable and scope stating are the most frequent strategies used and regarding the modification devices, the characters tend to use internal modifiers such as syntactic downgraders and upgraders. The results of the study suggest teacher to provide some authentic materials to introduce students to the real use of language. Further studies about speech acts focusing on the pedagogical implication are encouraged to be conducted. \u0000Keywords: speech act of requesting, CCSARP, pragmatic competence","PeriodicalId":185808,"journal":{"name":"Foremost Journal","volume":"519 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134315962","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Grammar helps us in several phenomena. For example, if we want to translate a sentence into English or vice versa, we need grammar so that the meaning of the sentence is clear and easy to understand. Grammar is also one aspect of language that is difficult to teach. Therefore, the teacher must have a solution so that learning grammar becomes more interesting and easy to understand. The teacher must have some good grammar teaching techniques, especially the past tense. A study to determine the effectiveness of teaching English Past Tense through the diary writing technique was conducted in the third grade of an elementary school in Bogor. Data collection was carried out through observation, interview, teaching and learning process, pre-test and post-test. The implementation of the technique is that students must write down their activities that they have done. Then the results of their writing will be analyzed together. Using this technique makes it easier for the students to understand and use the past tense correctly. Students can also do a post-test which is a means to evaluate teaching and learning techniques and processes properly and to be more active in the teaching and learning process. The post-test results show that teaching English past tense through diary writing technique is a good solution to improve students' understanding of past tense. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":185808,"journal":{"name":"Foremost Journal","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129519580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
