The objective of the study is to find out the non-observance of conversational maxims in a Kurdish comedy drama. It attempts to discover the specific types of non-observance of maxims in a short Kurdish drama. The study uses a mixed method (qualitative & quantitative); the qualitative approach is used for analyzing the characters’ speech, while the quantitative approach is used for counting the utterances in each type of non-observance of the maxims. The results show that flouting quality maxim is the most widely used throughout the drama. Depending on the results in the methodology section, it is clear that flouting the quality maxim is used more than other types of non-observance because this type of non-observance is apparent in comedy works.
