- Abstract
The transition from face-to-face learning to distance learning is an example of COVID-19 pandemic effect. This condition is a challenge especially for vocational-based nursing education providers because during the COVID-19 pandemic the experience of students interacting with patients tends to be restricted. To identify the context of the interaction between medical personnel and patients, this study aims to identify the linguistic representation used by doctors when interacting with patients based on the type of speech used in the conversations. This study used a descriptive research design with a qualitative approach. The data source used was the doctor’s speech in Grey’s Anatomy. The analysis followed a theory of the types of speech action initiated by Searle. The results of this study indicate that the speech acts used by doctors can be categorized into representative (48.57%), directive (37.14%), commissive (8.57%), and expressive (5.71%). The results of this study are expected to enrich the teaching materials of English for Specific Purposes subject for Nursing students.
