Abstract

Abstract. This study investigates linguistic politeness practiced by the Javanese when they speak Indonesian. To explore variations of such politeness, we probed two major variables: conversational participants and utterance forms. The former includes the aspects of age, social status, and familiarity; whereas the latter covers intonation and word choice. For both variables, we implemented categories of ‘low-high’, ‘equal’, and ‘high-low’. The findings of the study show that, according to the Javanese, instructing a person using the word ‘Ambilkan!’ is polite only when the relational context is ‘high-low’ or ‘equal’; but impolite when the context is ‘low-high’. Based on the utterance form, however, such instruction becomes polite even in the context of ‘low-high’ if the word ‘tolong’ is used.
