| dc.description.abstract | The present study aims to evaluate the role of commissive and expressive speech acts for effective interaction. It seeks to fulfill two main objectives:The first investigates the perceptions of M1 students and teachers regarding the communicative function of those illocutionary acts.The second aim to assess the impact of commissive and expressive acts on the learning environment. Grounded in J.L.Austin’s (1962) Speech Act Theory, and Searls’ (1969) Theory of Speech Act, this study adopts a mixed method approach that integrates both quantitative and qualitative data. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 60 M1 students , and structured interviews with 5 M1 teachers, and analyzed using descriptive statistical method and qualitative content analysis. The findings reveal that commissive and expressive speech acts play a crucial role in promoting effective interaction and enhancing classroom interaction . The study suggests that encouraging the use of these speech acts can positively influence student performance and strengthen the communicative relationship between teachers and learners. | |
