Abstract
The objective of this study is to analyze the types of politeness strategies and the factors that influence its use in a video interview between Zane Lowe and Taylor Swift entitled “Taylor Swift’s Songwriting Process on evermore”. The theory used to answer both research problems is the theory of politeness strategy proposed by Brown & Levinson (1987). In analyzing the data, the writer uses the qualitative method. The results indicate that there are 41 utterances containing politeness strategies, which are divided into 1 bald on record, 30 positive politeness, 9 negative politeness, and 1 off-record. In bald on record, the strategy used is no face threat minimization. Moreover, the writer also found 9 various sub-strategies of positive politeness used by Zane and Taylor, namely 6 exaggerate, 8 give gifts to the hearer, 8 presuppose, raise, assert common ground, 1 include both S and H in the activity, 1 be optimistic, 1 intensify interest to the hearer, 2 joke, 2 notice, attend to the hearer and 1 seek agreement. For negative politeness, the sub-strategies used are 7 questions, hedge and 2 apologize. Then, for off-record, 1 use contradictions. The most frequently used strategy is positive politeness with the sub-strategy of giving gifts to the hearer and presupposing, raising, and asserting common ground. Furthermore, payoff and social distance are two factors that influence Zane and Taylor in using politeness strategies. The payoff factor appears with 40 utterances and social distance with 4 utterances. It can be inferred that Zane and Taylor want to establish a friendly, relaxed, and positive conversation, and strengthen closeness. The presence of the payoff factor also implies that both want to satisfy each other’s face. Keywords: bald on record, factors, negative politeness, off-record, positive politeness.
