This research article deals with pragmatics as a branch of linguistics that talks about the use of language.Pragmatics studies how the transmisson of meaning depends not only on linguistic knowledge of a language user but also on the context of an utterance in terms of the intent of the speaker who involves in the conversation. This means the major emphasis of pragmatics is on the contextual meaning. So,this research aims at describing the use of deixis in the conversation by the fifth semester students of English Study Program of Timor University. The problems of this research are as follows: 1) what types of deixis are realized in the conversation, and 2) how does each tipe of deixis in the conversation reflect the speaker’s intention in negotiating meaning through conversation? Theoretical background of this research is based on concepts and/or ideas introduced by some pragmatists such as Levinson, Yule, Mey, Leech, and others. This research applies a qualitative research method in terms of the description of using deixis in English conversation. This research is focused on how deixis can be realized in the conversation. This means the data of the research are obtained from the fifth semester students of English Study Program in the academic year 2017/2018. The data is collected by asking the students in pairs to demonstrate their speaking ability in a conversation freely about any topic. The conversation was recorded and transcribed as natural as it was for anaysis. The recorded conversation is the primary data by choosing four recorded conversations for data analysis. In order to support the primary data in terms of the recording, then the researcher also uses observation technique to collect secondary data by observing how the students interact inside and/or outside the classroom by using English. The result of the research showed that person, place and time deixes are used by the students in the conversation which refer to a particular meaning of the speaker who involves in the conversation. On the basis of the result of the research, then it may be suggested that teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL) to the students of English Study Program can be maximized and intensified by using a variety of teaching techniques or methods since the ideas in a conversation can be linguistically and/or pragmatically interpreted.
