Abstract
Strategies of advice giving in Javanese culture and American culture in friendship domain are the focus of this research. Then, the similarities and the differences of advice-giving in both cultures are compared. The data were collected by taking field notes and conducting open role-play. Discourse completion tasks (DCT) are also distributed to the respondents to collect preliminary data of the research. Informants and respondents for the research are university students who are the native speakers of Javanese and the native speakers of American-English. The finding shows that advice giving in both Javanese culture and American culture is classified into support, suggestions, and prohibition. Advice giving in Javanese culture tends to be direct. In American culture, indirect strategies are mostly chosen to minimize imposition towards hearers. Advice in American culture mostly contains common fact to strengthen the illocutionary force. On the contrary, stating fact in advice is not a crucial thing in Javanese. Thus, advice-giving in Javanese culture is more about ‘consoling’ whereas in American culture, the advice-giving is a form of ‘counseling’ to solve the problems undergone by the hearers.
