Second, there are 4 types of narrative strategies, namely (1) strategies to speak frankly without further ado; (2) the strategy of speaking frankly with the pleasantries of positive politeness; (3) strategies to speak frankly with small talk of negative politeness; (4) strategies speak vaguely. Among the four narrative strategies, the most frequently used strategy is to speak frankly with positive politeness, as many as 31 data from 138 data or 22.8%.
