In addition to being popular, it is also pragmatically chosen with the help of the writer to facilitate verbal exchange. Every language has deictic phrases that point to things in the speaker's physical social context.

Basically, pragmatics is said to be the study of what speakers mean or the speaker's meaning (Yule, 1996).

Deixis
As Cruse (2006) points out that spatial deictic words demonstrate location or place in relation to the speaker. These can be clarified with 'place close to the loudspeaker' and 'do not place close to the loudspeaker'. It depends on the position of the thing or people with the speaker as the deictic center.
According to Cruse (2006, p.166) "Social deictic words are expressions whose function is to indicate the position of the referent on the scales of social status and intimacy relative to the speaker".
Definition of Reference
In addition, Levinson mentioned examples of words and phrases in English that indicate the relationship between the utterance and the preceding discourse, which are but, therefore, in conclusion, on the contrary, still, however, nevertheless, well, besides, actually, all in all, so, after all, and so on. It looked good, it refers to the same person that John refers to, but it does not strictly refer to the word John itself. Therefore, it is possible to identify the referent of each expression that there is an assumption if the hearer already knows the information of the referent expression.
Otherwise, it does not happen successfully when both the speaker and the listener do not have the same background as the context of the referent. An inference is additional information used by the listener to create a connection between what is said and what is meant (jul. Finally, the researcher concludes that there is a relationship between deixis and reference in pointing to the origin of the utterance.
Briefly, the speaker's act of referring to something in the utterance is called reference, and the expression used to refer to something in the utterance is known as deixis. Meanwhile, to understand an utterance reference that uses deictic expressions, the reader or listener must be able to identify the contexts of the utterance. According to Cruse, context is an essential factor in the interpretation of utterances and expressions.
Moreover, it is necessary to solve the problem of ambiguity in the utterance in the spoken or written language (Mey, 2001). After all, the researcher concludes that context is all the information necessary for interpreting the utterance or sentence consisting of a person, place or thing, even if it is in spoken or written form.
