Japanese people usually do not want to offend their conversation partner, in accordance with Japanese culture with the concept of aimai, but statements of rejection within the family are conveyed as they are.From the research results, seven (7) indirect rejection speech acts were found in dialogues 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7, two (2) direct rejection speech acts in dialogues 1 and 6.
