Abstrak This research is conducted to describe kinds of repair that occurred in the interactive English Program broadcast by Radio PTPN Surakarta and provide evidences of which the participants used repair in the interactive English Program broadcast by Radio PTPN Surakarta. This research uses the Pragmatics approach with Conversation Analysis as the field of study. It is a descriptive qualitative research and it employs purposive sampling as the sampling technique. The data in this research are all utterances of repairs in three episodes of English Program. They are classified into several types by using Schegloof, Sacks, and Jefferson’s classification of repair because repair has the correlation with turn-taking system. Then, the repairs are analyzed to look for the participant who initiates repairs and carries repairs out and the causes of repair. The results of this research are as follows: 1. The repairs among the hosts and the callers occur in several classifications. The first classification is repair which is based on the participant who initiates repair and carries repair out. From this classification, there are two kinds of repairs in the conversation data. They are self-repair and other-repair. These repairs are classified into four preference rankings. The second classification is repair which is based on the kind of trouble spot which is being repaired. Considering the second classification, there are two kinds of repair such as error repair (E-repair) and appropriateness repair (A-repair). The third classification is repair which is based on the point in time at which repair occurs. From the last classification, there are two kinds of repair such as immediate repair and delayed repair. These types usually occur in the self-repair. 2. In the process of repair, there are some reasons. The first reason is that the speaker runs with morphological error in the conversation. The second one is that the speaker has a trouble in hearing the utterance in the turn before. The third one is that the speaker blanks the words out. Finally, the fourth one is that the speaker speaks unclearly or indefinitely. The researcher expects that this research will give contributions in Pragmatics Study. It is recommended to other researchers to conduct the conversation structure especially conversational repair for pragmatics research. This research can be used as a reference to other researcher in analysing other point of view of repairs.
