The data are coded based on Nguyen’s (2005) coding scheme of criticism in terms of the realization strategies. Qualitative

The study targets exploring the similarities and differences between Iraqi and Malaysian learners of English in refusing marriage proposals. Also, it examines the favored politeness strategies that learners use to protect their interlocutors’ face, heeding both their social distance and status.
