Abstract
The linguistic revolution of Wittgenstein and the usage of language as a game was based to come up a new theory entitled speech act theory that founded by Austin and then developed by Searle. In this aspect, Austin believed that every statement it does not mean a description of a situation and its intention of stating a declaration rather speaker in stating some statements doing something. The research allocated to analyse and interpret the speech acts of some texts of (Nallay Judaiy) Hemin. The significance of the study is associate language and literature together. It means it makes language as a core of attention and investigation, another significance of the study uncover the intentions of the text. Though, there are some hidden intentions in the text. The research illustrat the result that the poet (speaker) creatively expressed his intention in term of indirect speech act to the receiver. It seems that every act expressed through statement, demand and question sentences and directed to the receiver. So, the acts of complaining, requesting and recommending are mostly used in the texts, it means they are allocated first step for themselves. Keywords: pragmatics, speech act theory, types of speech acts, Nallay Judaiy poems.
