The study deals with the types of flouting maxims In Indonesia Lawyers Clubs (ILC) Talk Show Program On TV One (KPK VS POLRI: Ujungnya sampai dimana? based on Grice’s cooperative principle. The objectives of study are to find out the maxims which are flouted, to find out the process of dominant flouting maxims and to find out the reasons of dominant flouting maxims which are shown by the interviwees. This research is conducted by document qualitative analysis research design. The data are the utterances of some conversations which were flouted. The data source of this research was taken from ILC talkshow with the topic of “KPK VS POLRI: Ujungnya sampai dimana?” which was displayed on February 15th, 2014 that was obtained from the video on internet. The data is analyzed by using Miles and Huberman (1994) with the three phases of data analysis. i.e.(1) data reduction, (2) data display, (3) conclusion and verification. The result shows that all types of maxims are flouted by participants namely: maxim of quantity, maxim of quality, maxim of relevance and maxim of manner. Besides, also found the flouting maxims of combination in ILC talk show. Flouting maxim of quantity is the highest number in ILC talk show. The total number of flouting maxim of Quantity is seventy three. The second most frequently is flouting maxim of relevance which the total number is twenty one. The third is the flouting maxim of manner. There are six flouting maxim of manner applied by them. The last is flouting maxim of quality which the total number is three . A process by which dominant maxim is flouted for the purpose of getting an implicature. The most dominant reasons usually carried out by giving detail explanation to give more information to stress and to expect something in order to make the intended meaning more clear for the listener to follow. The writer can conclude that in ILC talk show the guests mostly give more information than required to make viewers easy to understand their conversation. It can prove that flouting maxim does not always make the conversation unsuccessful, even it make the hearer getting clear information. The writer suggest the reader to comprehend the flouting maxim deeply in order that they can chose which one is appropriate and which one is not appropriate applied in their conversation.

Umroh, 2015. Sebuah analisisa pelanggaran maksim di Indonesia Lawyers Klub (ILC) Program Talk Show di TV One (KPK VS POLRI: Ujungnya Sampai Dimana ?. Tesis. Medan. Program Studi Linguistic Terapan Bahasa Inggris. Universitas Negeri Medan
Penelitian ini menguraikan jenis- jenis pelanggaran maksim di Indonesia Lawyers Klub (ILC) Program Talk Show di TV One berdasarkan teori mengenai prinsip kerjasama yang dikemukakan oleh Grice. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui prinsip-prinsip maksim yang dilanggar, untuk mengetahui proses pelanggaran maksim dan untuk mengetahui alasan pelanggaran maksim yang di ditunjukkan oleh orang yang di wawancarai. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan model penelitian dokumen analisis kualitatif. Data tersebut merupakan ucapan dari beberapa percakapan yang dilanggar. Sumber data penelitian tersebut diambil dari program TV talkshow Indonesia Lawyers Klub (ILC) di TV One pada topik "(KPK VS POLRI : Ujungnya Sampai Dimana " yang dipertunjukkan pada tanggal 15 Februari 2015 yang di peroleh dari vidio di internet. Data tersebut di analisa dengan menggunakan teoriMiles and Huberman (1994) dengan tiga tahap menganalisa data yaitu: (1) pengurangan data, (2) mempertunjukan data, (3) kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian tersebut menunjukkan bahwa seluruh jenis maxim dilanggar oleh orang yang diwawancarai yaitu: maksim kuantitas, maksim kualitas, maksim relevan dan maksim cara. Pelanggaran maksim kuantiti adalah jumlah yang tertinggi pada ILC talk show. Disamping itu juga di temukan jenis maxim campuran. Frekwensi yang kedua adalah pelanggaran maksim relevant yang berjumlah dua puluh satu. Yang ketiga adalah maksim cara. Ada enam pelanggaran maksim cara yang digunakan oleh mereka. Yang terakhir adalah pelanggaran maksim qualitas yang berjumlah tiga. Proses dimana pepatah dominan dilanggar untuk tujuan mendapatkan implikatur percakapan. Alasan dari terjadinya maxim bahwa pada ILC talk show para participan sebagian besar memberikan informasi yang lebih dari yang dibutuhkan untuk membuat pemirsa mudah mengerti percakapan dan mengharapkan sesuatu dari mereka. Hal ini dapat membuktikan bahwa pelanggaran maksim tidak selalu membuat percakapan tidak berhasil, bahkan membuat pendengar mendapatkan informasi yang jelas. Penulis menyarankan pembaca untuk memahami pelanggaran maksim agar mereka dapat memilih mana yang sesuai dan mana yang tidak tepat diterapkan dalam percakapan mereka.

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Backround of study
Flouting a maxim is signals to the hearer that the speaker is not following
the co-operative principle (Cruse 2000:360). The cooperative principle is a set of
four general rules to describe how participants ‘cooperate’ in conversation to
achieve smooth and efficient interaction (Levinson, 1983:101). In communication,
people should apply the cooperative principle to make the conversation work
effectively and run smoothly. By using a set of four general rules in speaking both
of the speakers will conduct the conversation well. In addition, Grice (1975),
people will have a successful conversation if they fulfill the cooperative principles
that are related in the four maxims of conversation. The four maxims are maxim
of quantity, maxim of quality, maxim of relevance, and maxim of manner. The
cooperative principle describes how effective communication in conversation is
achieved in common social situations.
In fact, people sometimes flout the maxims or break the rule of
conversation. In conversing, they sometimes are not informative as required
(disobey maxim of quantity) can lead to ineffectiveness or convoluted
conversation because excessive contribution, not truthful (disobey maxim of
quality) can lead to errors due to a lack of understanding of information. Not
relevant (disobey maxim of relation ) can cause communication failures in the
conversation because there is no conversation between the narrator and the
manner) can lead to misunderstandings because of the ambiguity of the meaning
of the context of the conversation.
The examples of flouting maxim:
Rachel: Wow! How are you?!
Ross: Good-good, I’m-I’m married. (Shows her his ring).
From the dialogue above, we can see that Ross’ response in Rachel’s
question appears to flout the maxim of quantity. He gives superfluous information
to Rachel’s question. He should just answer the question by saying, “Good-good,
I’m fine”. However, he flouts the maxim of Quantity by giving addition
information, which has no relation with the question. Then it seems that he flouts
the maxim of Relevance as well. The answer “I’m- I’m married” appears having
no relation with the question “How are you?”. However, Ross states that
information in order to show off his marriage to Rachel. The reason for his
utterance is that Rachel knows that he ever loved her in the past and she rejected
him. Therefore, he gives that information. If all of the maxims are being observed,
there will be no additional set of meaning added to the conversation.
Dealing with the floating of Grice’s maxims, Nailufah (2008) conducted
research entitled “Floating Maxims on Grice’s Maxims in the Drama of the Death
of a Salesman by Arthur Miller”. This study focuses on how the maxim of
quantity, quality, relevance, and manner floated in the drama of “the Death of a
Salesman” and this study used qualitative method.The research findings on this
study show that all the four floated can be found in the drama. The utterance floats
the maxim of quantity when it is too long, the maxim of quality when it is absurd,
the maxim of relevance when it is unrelated topic, and the maxim of manner when
Sarah Rosalina Burhan in 2009 researched about flouting maxims in the main
characters of UP! animated movie. The researcher used qualitative research .The
results of this study found that there were 47 dialogues containing flouting
maxims in UP! Animated movie. That consists of four kinds flouting maxims,
namely flouting maxim of quality, flouting maxim of quantity, flouting maxim of
manner, and flouting maxim of relevant. The purposes of flouting the maxims
were to make the main characters are comfortable in the conversation, to avoid
other questions, to show pleasure or anger, and to show their knowledge on
something in this conversation.
The phenomenon of the flouting maxims occurs in Indonesia lawyers Club
talkshow program (ILC). This kind of program ofcourse contains a lot of flouting
maxims in communicating information. Sometimes both the speaker and the
hearer are uncooperative in conversation. This is due to the many flouting of the
maxim in the conversation. The guests often flout the maxim by giving more or
less information, hiding something, giving not relevant answer, and giving
ambiguous statement. so that there is misunderstanding in interpreting the
meaning and information conveyed by the speakers cannot be received by
listeners well. So as to cause a fuss and fights between them.
Here are the parts of the utterances of floating maxim has taken from ILC
talkshow program on TV One which are shown by the interviwees.
1. KI: Anda dikasi proyek?
SS: Jadi gini pak, makanya saya bilang tadi bahwa kasus ini sebenarnya cukup menarik, kenapa? Kerna kita ada beberapa orang ini saksi juga ada saya bawa di sini yang di MK, yang saya cari juga ada 3 orang di sini…
In the first conversation above, SS flouted the Maxim of Relation. The
answered the question by saying” Yes or No. The answer “Jadi gini pak,
makanya saya bilang tadi bahwa kasus ini sebenarnya cukup menarik, kenapa?
Kerna kita ada beberapa orang ini saksi juga ada saya bawa di sini yang di MK,
yang saya cari juga ada 3 orang di sini...” appeared having no relation with the
question “KI: Anda dikasi proyek?”. SS was giving an explanation that seemed
to be irrelevant to what KI had said.
2. KI: Arahannya dari mana kalau begitu, kalau bukan dari
KABARESKRIM atau KAPOLRI, kan anggota di lapangan dapat arahan, dari mana arahannya?
IR: Kalau misalnya kita masuk kepada proses penangkapan pak Karni, berartikan kita melihat proses penangkapan ini di kaji secara hukum pidana. kalau misalnya pihak tersangka komplin masyarakat juga komplin. Mari kita dorong pihak tersangka ini melakukan praperadilan sehingga kita mengkajinya itu bet.ul – betul dalam forum yang benar ya kan pak ...
In the second conversation above, IR flouted the Maxim of Relation. The
answer he gave is irrelevant to the surrounding conversation. He should have
answered the question by saying” arahannya dari KABARESKRIM atau
KAPOLRI. The answer “Kalau misalnya kita masuk kepada proses penangkapan
pak Karni, ...” appeared having no relation with the question “Arahannya dari
mana kalau begitu, kalau bukan dari KABARESKRIM atau KAPOLRI, kan
anggota di lapangan dapat arahan, dari mana arahannya?”. IR was giving an
explanation that seemed to be irrelevant to what KI had said.
The researcher would like to find out the maxims which are flouted in ILC
talkshow which are shown by the interviewees, to find out which is dominantly
flouted in ILC talkshow which are shown by the interviewees and find out the
reasons of the dominant type of flouting maxims in ILC talkshow which are
ILC is one of the popular news talk show programs on private television station
TV One . Facts show that the ILC is a favorite television program that awarded
panasonic AWARD in 2013 in the category of Talkshow and News and
Information Program
(http://life.viva.co.id/news/read/401390-indonesia-lawyers-club-sabet-npenghargaan-bergengsi-panasonic) and ILC also has many fans in
facebook social network about sixty nine thousands and four hundred people
(https://id-id.facebook.com/IndonesiaLawyersClubtvOne). ILC as one of the best
talk shows in Indonesia and witnessed by the community should reflect the culture
of Indonesia. The participants should be polite and respectable in accordance with
the educational background of ILC participants. The participants presented are not
only the lawyers but also the source of information related to the topic like, and
etc showed. They proposed their arguments through their utterances. This debate
forum became one of the means to explain this problem to the general public. In
these formulations are the guest stars would have to speak with the good and
straight forward. What language context in accordance with the current state of
society is certainly very calculated. The classification of context is very helpful in
interpreting the meaning of the language of the guests, and pragmatic knowledge
is needed to understand the meaning of this political language.
In response to the issues above, I am interested in analyzing the floating
maxims in ILC talkshow program on TV One. Thus, I would like to conduct a
study entitled “An Analysis on Flouting Maxim in Indonesia Lawyers Club (ILC)
talkshow program on TV One ”. This paper is aimed at examining Grice’s
Cooperative Principle and through flouting maxims found in ILC talkshow

CHAPTER V
CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
5.1 Conclusions
Based on what the researcher has written and scrutinized in the previous
chapter, she discovers that a maxim is flouted for getting a conversational
implicature. Therefore, it is important to know flouting maxim, especially in
conversation. Due to the important of understanding, flouting maxim of the
research upon the Indonesia Lawyers Club (ILC) has been done and the following
can conclude the result.
1. It was found that four types of flouting maxim (maxim of quantity, quality,
relevance and manner occurred in all parts of Indonesia Lawyers Club
(ILC) talkshow program on TV One. The maxim of quantity is the most
dominant used in the conversation. Besides, also found the flouting
maxims of combination.
2. The prosess of using the flouting maxim in Indonesia Lawyers Club (ILC)
talkshow program on TV One is by using implication to show the happens
in the conversation under certain situations, to give the information of the
opinions and arguments in detail, the speaker desires the greatest
understanding in his/her recipient because it is expected that the
interlocutor is able to uncover the hidden meaning behind the utterances.
3. There are two reasons for flouting the maxim: a) to explain more about
something; usually someone tries to explain about something by giving
much information and expecting that the hearer will understand more
more words to show something. They use this condition in order to expect
something from other person.
5.2Suggestions
Having seen the result of the study, the researcher would like to offer the
suggestions as follows:
1. It is advisable for readers to understand the cooperative principle with its
maxims, especially the four types of flouting maxim on Indonesia Lawyers
Club (ILC) talkshow program on TV one in order to avoid
misunderstaning among the participants and to get the speaker`s intention
through his utterances on the conversation.
2. It is expected to the teachers and students to pay attention to the dominant
type of flouting maxim on Indonesia Lawyers Club (ILC) program. It is
due to the dominant type of flouting found here (maxim of quantity) is
necessarily to be applied by the teachers in the classroom in order to give
more and detail information to their students.
3. It is suggested to other researchers and the students of English Applied
Linguistics, who are taking pragmatics, start to analyzing and conducting
further research in order to get other reasons of the dominant type of
flouting maxims from other topics and parts on Indonesia Lawyers Club
