Abstract :
This thesis examines the positive politeness strategies used by the main male characters in a movie entitled Bohemian Rhapsody. The researcher is interested in investigating the positive politeness strategies used by the main male characters, because, as far as the researcher knows, only a few have focused on the types of positive politeness and the factors in the documentary that affect the conversation of the main male characters in the movie Bohemian Rhapsody. The researcher uses the pragmatic theory from Brown and Levinson, which focuses on positive politeness. Two problems must be solved in this study, namely: (1) What are the types of positive politeness used by the main male character in the movie Bohemian Rhapsody and (2) What are the factors that influence the main male character in Bohemian Rhapsody movie to use positive politeness. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach to analyze the speech of the main male character through the transcript of the movie Bohemian Rhapsody. The analysis begins by examining the main male character's utterances and then grouping them. By identifying the politeness strategy used by the main male character to avoid facial attacks by the interlocutor, the researcher explains why the character can use this strategy when speaking to his interlocutor. The researcher revealed that the most frequently used positive politeness strategies by the main male characters in the movie Bohemian Rhapsody are to seek agreement, to presuppose, to make jokes, and to be optimistic. It is used primarily because they have close proximity. The use of positive strategies is motivated by the need to pay someone else?s politeness in return and sociological variable.
