Abstract

Implicature refers to implied meaning in utterance that can be understood by indirectly expression. Implicature is used by Grice (1975) to account for what a speaker can imply, suggest, or mean a distinct from what the speaker says. Implicature is related to the interpretation of the hearer or to the speaker or the writer. In informal conversations occurs the hidden meaning of what actually said by the speakers. This research investigates the types of implicature in Informal Conversations Used by the English Education Study Program Students at The Teacher Training and Education Faculty of the University of Bengkulu. It was aimed to analyze the types of implicature and how the implicature is carried out in the informal conversations. This research used a descriptive qualitative method. The results of this study show that 1) there are three types of implicature found in the informal conversations; conventional implicature implicature, generalized conversational implicature and particularized conversational implicature, and 2) the implicature is carried out by the use of generalized conversational implicature and particularized conversational implicature in the informal conversations. The conversational implicature is more dominant of implicature (90.5%). The conventional implicature is less type (9.5%).
