Abstract

Strategi permintaan maaf adalah sebuah cabang dari tindak tutur yang menginvestigasi bagaimana bahasa bias digunakan untuk memperbaiki keadaan antara pembicara dan pendengar. Ada banyak cara bagi pembicara untuk menyampaikan sebuah pemintaan maaf. Kita sering mendengar seorang pembicara meminta maaf tanpa mengucapkan kata “maaf”. Strategi permintaan maaf bukan merupakan sebuah mata kuliah yang diajarkan secara spesifik di sekolah maupun di universitas. Ketika mempelajari tentang tindak tutur, strategi permintaan maaf jarang dibahas di kelas yang membuat tidak semua pelajar mengerti tentang hal ini. Karena itulah, penelitian ini menginvestigasi permintaan maaf yang digunakan oleh seseorang untuk mengetahui arti dan maksud dari pemintaan maaf tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif karena data yang diambil oleh penulis merupakan atau ucapan-ucapan dari Chad Griffin. Penulis fokus pada ujaran yang berisi strategi permintaan maaf yang digunakan oleh Griffin.

Hasil dari penelitian menunjukkan terdapat 21 ujaran permintaan maaf yang disampaikan oleh Griffin. Namun, dari 21 ujaran tersebut, terdapat beberapa ujaran yang bisa dikategorikan kedalam dua kategori berbeda. Trosborg (1995) mengemukakan bahwa ada 5 strategi permintaan maaf yaitu, Evasive Strategy, Indirect Strategy, Direct Strategi, Remedial Support dan Opting Out. Dari lima strategi tersebut, terdapat empat strategi yang muncul pada pidato permintaan maaf oleh Chad Griffin dan hanya satu yang tidak muncul yaitu Opting Out. Dari 21 ujaran, 10 ujaran dikategorikan sebagai Indirect Strategy, 13 ujaran dikategorikan sebagai Remedial Support, 3 ujaran dikategorikan sebagai Direct Apology dan hanya 1 ujaran dikategorikan sebagai Evasive strategi.
