Abstract

This study analyses the use of illocutionary types of BBC Youtube channel ‘You're not fit to call yourself men,’ Sarah Hanson-Young tells senators, where Senator Sarah Hanson-Young was being slut shamed by other members of the parliament. This study uses the descriptive qualitative method. The objectives of this study are to find the illocutionary acts used in the speech and also to figure out how the contribution of the confessional discourse. Documentation technique was used to collect the data, and the data were then analysed by using Searle's theory, and Mills and Mandziukk. The results of this study showed that 2 illocutionary acts were equally dominant in the speech which was assertive and expressive. In addition, Declaratives were less dominant, and the two other types, directives and commissives, were not found in the speech. This study also found that the speaker’s use of illocutionary acts to perform her confessional was a successful technique to engage other members of parliament.
