hyperboles in Vietnamese and English political speeches in terms of the structural and functional features and the similarities and differences in the structural and functional features of the understatements and the hyperboles between the two sets of data The data of the research contains 40 speeches made by English politicians and 40 speeches made by Vietnamese politicians from 2018 to 2021 In this study, both quantitative and lu an qualitative methods were adopted to analyze the data which gave a sufficient n va analysis of the figures of speech based on relevant theories The quantitative tn to techniques provided statistical information such as frequency of occurrence whereas the qualitative approach was employed to analyse the functions and structures of gh p ie understatements and hyperboles as well as the similarities and differences between w them under the light of Harris (2017)’s theory in the approach adapted from oa nl (Claridge, 2011, McCarthy & Carter, 2004, Cano Mora, 2006 and Du Thi Trang Anh, 2010) The result of the study revealed that there are no big differences in the d an lu structural features of hyperboles in both languages in which single word form is va used most frequently Same in English, hyperboles are used more frequent than ll u nf understatements in Vietnamese political speeches The most obvious finding to oi m emerge

rung đạc dụng Vi t Nam.” (4.71) (Then, pretending that wood in Viet Nam which is not from Vietnam's special-use forests is imported from Laos and Burma) The meaning of the phrase is to lower the belief, and in this case it is understood as a subtle form of sarcasm And in the same text, he once again used understatement to criticize someone subtly as in statement “Mọt nen giáo dục loay hoay t m triet lý…” (4.72) (An education lu an struggling to find philosophy…” This statement understated the disorientation of n va Vietnamese education, which is the State’s responsibility An example of

less serious while Vietnamese politicians tend to use understatements to languages are an lu emphasize the enormity of a problem The second most occurrences in both showing politeness In both languages, politicians use va u nf understatements as a subtle form of sarcasm least ll Because of the differences in culture and language, there are differences in m oi using understatements in Vietnamese and English political speeches Vietnamese z at nh people like to beat around the bush so they usually borrow a thing to talk about another thing, so the number of understatements used as a metaphor in Vietnamese z gm @ speeches is more than in English speeches Other cases cannot be made conclusion because of the limited in number of m co 4.4 Discussion l appearance and the low difference among them an Lu Generally, the result showed that the frequency of understatements and n va ac th si 56 hyperboles in speeches of English politicians is higher than that of Vietnamese politicians This may be explained by a number of reasons Firstly, we have to take communication style and socio-cultural norms As we all know that the Western and English people in particular are more extrovert than the Eastern included Vietnamese people, so they like to share things and tend to talk much in a more free ways than us And hyperboles and understatements are two devices that are used the most to make communication effective, especially in politics, speeches must be accepted and trusted from the listeners As the result the more politicians talk, the more hyperboles and understatements are used The second reason I would like to lu an mention is the social hierarchy Language can be used as a special tool for people in n va higher status of social hierarchy So in a more developed society like in England, understatements and hyperboles are used thoroughly by English politicians This study also concluded that hyperboles used much more frequently than p ie gh tn to people use more language to get what they want and influenced other people And understatement Personally, the author think of listeners’ preference, speakers used nl w hyperboles to draw attentions and were to make impression easily Understatements are d oa normally used in negative situations which are not what mostly people want to hear an lu The form of understatements and hyperboles used in political speeches va normally appeared in single words or phrases rather than in clauses, which is oi 4.5 Summary m confirmed by Cladrige (2011) ll u nf logically true based on the complexity of the grammatical pattern And this was also z at nh This chapter is concluded with the aim to present the finding and discussion z of the result of the study With combination of qualitative and quantitative methods, @ the outcomes of our study are not only presented in the form of tables and chart but gm l they are also analyzed in terms of description It can be said that during the process m co of studying hyperboles and understatements, the writer dealt with their forms and their functions and pointed out the similarities and differences in their form and an Lu function between the two languages English and Vietnamese n va ac th si 57 CHAPTER CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS From the findings in previous chapter, chapter provides the conclusion and summarizes all the main points of this research, and then suggests some implications in learning English, practicing communication skills as well as doing further researches 5.1 Review of main findings This study was conducted to investigate into forms and functions of lu an Vietnamese and English understatements and hyperboles in 40 political speeches n va for each language from 2010 up to now with a combination of qualitative and tn to quantitative method The main aim of the study was to examine the structural and gh functional features of understatements and hyperboles in Vietnamese and English p ie political speeches The main frameworks used to analyse those cases were the w Harris’s theory in the approach adapted from Claridge (2011), McCarthy & Carter oa nl (2004), Cano Mora (2006) and Anh (2010) After analyzing the data, some conclusions were made in the following points: d an lu In concern with the structural features of the understatements and the u nf va hyperboles used in the investigated English and Vietnamese political speeches: Hyperboles could be formed from single words, phrases or clauses in political ll oi m speeches They were basic elements in a sentence in traditional grammar It is the z at nh same structural features of understatements as hyperboles Relating to functional features of the understatements and the hyperboles used z in the investigated English and Vietnamese political speeches, understatements were @ gm used to show politeness, emphasize the enormity of a problem, avoid hurting the l hearer’s feeling and making the hearer sulky, criticize someone subtly (especially the m co people with higher rank and position in the society), be a subtle form of sarcasm, function as a metaphor and make problems less serious In spite of different languages an Lu and politician, the function of understatements was unchanged It was the same in n va ac th si 58 hyperboles Politicians in both countries England and Vietnam used hyperbole to emphazise their meanings, evaluate things, express surprise, simplify the facts, intensify interests, contrast differences, show humour, clarify, and be polite In general, English politicians used more understatements and hyperbole than Vietnamese politicians In terms of hyperbole structures, there are no differences in the frequency of the types of forms in both languages Single word form was used most frequently, then the second highest frequencies were phrasal hyperbole, the last place was clausal hyperbole The more complicated the hyperbole form was, the less they lu appear in the political speeches With reference to phrasal hyperboles, English an va politicians tend to use more noun and adjective phrase while Vietnamese politicians n have no significant tendency to gh tn Related to hyperbole functions, there are no significant differences in function of English and Vietnamese hyperboles Both Vietnamese and English ie p politicians used most of the hyperboles to emphasize their meaning nl w When it comes to understatement forms, the most obvious finding to emerge oa from this study was that understatements in phrasal form were used most frequently d by English and Vietnamese politicians lu va an With regard to understatement functions, there was a difference between two languages which was the total understatements used in English are more than in u nf ll Vietnam English politicians tended to use understatements to make problems less m oi serious while Vietnamese politicians tended to use understatements to emphasize 5.2 Implications z at nh the enormity of a problem z It is said that language is the means of thinking and the use of it is @ gm individualized from one to one It cannot deny that rhetorical devices play an m co l important role in making speeches more convincing and winning support from the audience, especially understatements and hyperboles This study of understatements practical implication an Lu and hyperboles in term of structure and function, thus, had both theoretical and n va ac th si 59 Theoretically, the study provided a more detail insight into forms and functions of understatements and hyperboles Based on traditional grammar, the investigated forms for both rhetorical devices were word, phrase, and clause And for different intention, they had different functions In this aspect, the study would help save attempt for anyone that is concerned with studying understatement and hyperbole In term of differences in forms and functions of understatement and hyperbole in English and Vietnamese, the writer made some conclusion that are expected to be considered as a source of reference for further studies on literary works Practically, this study is helpful for translators in politics A thorough lu an understanding of understatements and hyperboles will help to avoid being led to n va inappropriate interpretation of language transferring For communicators, communication Thus, this study proves to have practical value in daily activities In gh tn to hyperboles and understatements can be used to help achieve the purpose of p ie teaching English, this study can help learners, especially those who have high level of English competence in mastering a language nl w 5.3 Limitation d oa Due to the limit in time and related materials, the study might not have been an lu thoroughly discussed as it should be In adition, books of theorical background on va applying understatements and hyperboles in English and Vietnamese are not u nf available which made the study meet dificulties in reaching the best perfectness ll Because of the small amount of data used in this study, it was difficult to find m oi significant relationships from the data In addition, the context and purposes of each z at nh speech are different Besides that, hyperboles and understatements were used with speakers’ intended meaning that caused the limited in the writer’s understanding z gm @ 5.4 Suggestions for further studies This study focused on understatements and hyperboles in political speeches l m co between English and Vietnamese It is suggested that other researchers should conduct a study about understatements and hyperboles in other types of discourse an Lu such as: in a movie or in a TV show n va ac th si REFERENCES Alattar, R (2017) Formal and Functional Perspectives in the Analysis of
