Maxim is a part of pragmatics study. The used of maxims in conversation is important in order to make a productive and meaningful conversation. Since pragmatics is the study about meaning, maxims are the basic principles of how to construct meaning. However, the listeners tend not to fulfill the maxims in order to make the speakers do not know the truth and only understand the surface meaning which named as the violation of maxims. In another part, on the education background, the teachers still do not teach the students more about pragmatics which make the students cannot give the meaningful or productive response while in teaching and learning process in the classroom.
