This study is a qualitative research in nature. The data were Volume: 4 collected via field linguistic method using three techniques of data collection: Issue: 1 observation, interview, and note-taking. The study used a qualitative research method DOI: 10.32996/ijllt.2021.4.1.13 to describe all morphophonemic process of affixation in Ngeno-Ngene dialect of Sasak language. The results of the study revealed that there are two affixes that KEYWORDS undergo morphophonemic process, namely, prefix be-, pe-, ng-, t-, me- and simulfix ke-an. Prefix be- can cause epenthesis (additional r ), prefix pe- causes epenthesis Morpho-phonemic, Sasak, (additional n and mi) and assimilation ( k n), prefix ng- causes assimilation (k ŋ), Affixation, Ngeno-Ngene dialect prefix t- causes epenthesis (additional e) and prefix me- causes assimilation (p m). The simulfix ke-an in this dialect causes epenthesis in which there will be lexical addition ‘r,m,n’ when the simulfix ke-an is used. 1. Introduction 1 Affixation is an integral part of a language that has been discussed widely in most of languages in the world including Sasak language.

  • CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Language
    1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Language is a tool which helps people to communicate each other as it is able to convey messages or information that has been processed in the human mind. Language is related to human cognitive as it deals with the memories saved in the mind of both speaker and hearer. The mind itself processes, learns and understands the memories so that human can communicate by using the language. Although language is processed and produced in our mind, nobody knows how we can do it so. Most of the time, language is processed and produced in a conscious condition. However, since our minds can also processing language even though we are in an unconscious condition, language can produce when we are unconscious. Langen said that sleep talking is the appearance of an intensive dream, and more often happens in the unsynchronised sleep periods (1984:88). Each person has different cause of doing sleep talking. For most people, sleep talking happens because they have something in their mind when they are awake. Generally, human communicate consciously by talking directly to others. However, they can also communicate unconsciously through sleep 2 talking without recognizing what they are talking about. It means that they can produce utterances containing word, phrase, clause or sentence in their sleep talking. Therefore, their utterances can be analyzed grammatically by using morphology and syntax. The writer is interested in analyzing sleep talking because the utterances, produced by unconscious people can be grammatically analyzed. Therefore, the writer analyzes the syntactical and the morphological process of the sleep talking utterances in a thesis entitled “Morphological and Syntactical Analysis of Sleep Talking (A Case Study of Words and Sentences Produced by Three Sleep Talkers)”.

  • CHAPTER III RESEARCH METHODOLOGY This Chapter
    CHAPTER III RESEARCH METHODOLOGY This chapter elaborates the methodology which was used in this study to investigate how the processes of affixation are realized in the songs lyric of the Using dialect and Javanese, and also examines the differences in using the same affixes in the Using dialect and Javanese. It also covers research design, data collection and data analysis. 3.1 Research design This study used a qualitative method because the main aim of the study was to examine how the processes of affixation are realized in the song lyrics of the Usingdialect and Javanese and to discover the differences in using the same affixes in the Using dialect and Javanese. According to Bodgan and Taylor (1998), a qualitative method as a research procedure results in descriptive data that can be observed. The data is in the form of written or spoken words. In analyzing the data, these studies used the theory of affixation that includes prefix, simulfix, infix, suffix, confix, and affix combination, and also the morphophonemic processes, changes of phoneme, addition, deletion and assimilation. 3.2 Data Collection 3.2.1.Data Source The data of this study were taken from the result of transcribing the 27 song lyrics of the Using dialect, and 27 song lyrics of Javanese which contain prefix, simulfix, infix, suffix, confix and affix combination.

E-ISSN: 2621-9158 P-ISSN:2356-0401 http://ejournal.umm.ac.id/index.php/celtic/index THE MORPHO-PHONEMIC PROCESSES IN INDONESIAN ADVERTISEMENT’S SLOGANS 1Octavia Chandra Dewi*, 1Lia Maulia Indrayani, 1Ypsi Soeria Soemantri 1English Linguistic Department, Universitas Padjadjaran, Indonesia *Corresponding Author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The use of slogans in the advertisements to introduce and to attract public’s attention upon the products advertised are essential. The use of morpho-phonemic forms as the morphological process in the Indonesian advertisements’ slogans nowadays are interesting to be analyzed since there are lots of them use unique forms to attract public’s attention upon the product. The public’s attention upon the advertisements would influence the level of public’s awareness upon the product and eventually would raise the number of purchase and the usage of the product offered. This research explained the forms of the morphological process used in the Indonesian advertisement’s slogans, and the purposes of the morphological process used in the Indonesian advertisement’s slogans. Based on O'Grady and Dobrovolsky’s theories, this research uses descriptive qualitative method by observing and documenting the forms of morpho-phonemic changing which are used in Indonesian slogans, continued by analyzing the data. The objects of the study were the texts in advertisement’s slogans. The sources of the data were the Indonesian advertisement’s slogans from various types of product, which were aired or published in Indonesia. The forms of the morpho-phonemic changing were studied based on morphological processes in morphology.

  • MORPHOLOGY What Is Morphology?
    Asst.Inst.Wassan H.A MORPHOLOGY What is Morphology? . Morphology is the scientific study of word formation. Minimal meaningful / grammatical unit of a word. The study of patterns of word formation. How words are originated, grammatical forms, on what basis the word class is formed etc. Words and Morphemes . A word: is a unit which is constituent at the phrase level and above. This is being the minimal possible unit of a reply. It has regular stress pattern, being the smallest constituent that can be moved within a sentence without making the sentence ungrammatical. Morpheme . Minimal, meaningful unit of a word or in the grammar of a language. Not further divisible or analyzable into smaller forms. The units of ‘lowest’ rank out of which words, the units of next highest rank are composed. If we try to break up a morpheme, it loses its identity and it left with meaningless noises. Morpheme . Semantically different from other phonemically similar or identical linguistic forms. e.g. Speaker, deer, faster . A sound sequence is not always regarded as a morpheme. E.g: man—*woman, unnatural, unfaithful, *under, *sun . It could be also termed as an abstract unit of meaning. A synonym for morpheme is glosseme Examples: . Unladylike . Un+ lady+ like . Encouragement . En+ courage+ ment . Disillusionment . Dis+ illusion+ ment . Anti-naxalism . Anti+ naxal+ ism What is morph then? . A morph is the phonetic realization of a morpheme. The real form of the morpheme, the actual utterance of the morpheme. A formal unit with a physical shape. This is similar to the concept called ‘phone’ in phonology Allomorph .

  • Verbal Characteristics in Gunung Sitoli Dialect of Nias Language
    International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Development International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Development Online ISSN: 2349-4182, Print ISSN: 2349-5979 Impact Factor: RJIF 5.72 Received: 08-12-2017; Accepted: 12-01-2018 www.allsubjectjournal.com Volume 5; Issue 1; January 2018; Page No. 24-29 Verbal characteristics in gunung sitoli dialect of nias language Siamir Marulafau Faculty of Cultural Sciences, University of Sumatera Utara, Medan, Indonesia Abstract This paper is aimed at discussing verbal characteristics in Nias language focusing on the morphology and syntax. This findings indicate that the verbal morphology is done through the process of affixation, reduplication and composition, and while the syntactic characteristics of verbs can be based on intransitive and transitive verb. It is concluded that the verbal process classified is carried out through inransitive and transitive verbs. Intransive verbs go together with affixes or without affixes, and with verbs undergoing the reduplication. Transitive verb is also accompanied with affixes and reduplication. Thus, the meaning of affixes can be different with prefixes, suffixes, infixes, and simulfixes. The meaning of reduplication is also influenced by repetition of the basic form of the words. Keywords: verbal morphology, reduplication, composition, gunung sitoli, dialect, nias 1. Introduction classification. Every language in the world, such as Bahasa Indonesia, English, or Nias language (NL), has different characteristics.

The research is aimed to describe the function and meaning of morpheme in Besemah Language. The object of this research is the dictionary of Besemah Language by Dr. Sutiono Mahdi, M.Hum. The method of this research is descriptive qualitative method. The writer uses the theory of Mahdi (2012:93). The result of this research shows that the function of morpheme mostly divided into two types. First is the morpheme creating verb. They are prefix N-, prefix be-, prefix te-, prefix di-, suffix –ku, suffix –i, suffix –lah, simulfix N-....-ka, simulfix di-......-i. Then the mopheme creates noun. They are preffix pe-, se-, suffix –an, simulfix ke-.....-an and simulfix pe-.......-an. Then the meaning of each morphemes are different. The morpheme also has a various meaning mostly when its function creates verb, the meaning are doing, having, using, producing, emphaizing, ordering to do, telling something from the past, telling the event. Eventhough the affixes attached are similar, yet it depends on the root attached. Meanwhile the morpheme which its function creates noun, the meaning are person who likes, person who have characteristic, showing a place, things or tools.

  • Challenges for the Representation of Morphology in Ontology Lexicons
    Proceedings of eLex 2019 Challenges for the Representation of Morphology in Ontology Lexicons Bettina Klimek 1, John P. McCrae 2, Julia Bosque-Gil 3, Maxim Ionov 4, James K. Tauber 5, Christian Chiarcos 4 1 Institute for Applied Informatics (InfAI), Leipzig University 2 Data Science Institute, National University of Ireland Galway 3 Ontology Engineering Group, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid 4 Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main 5 Open Greek and Latin Project Abstract Recent years have experienced a growing trend in the publication of language resources as Linguistic Linked Data (LLD) to enhance their discovery, reuse and the interoperability of tools that consume language data. To this aim, the OntoLex-lemon model has emerged as a de facto standard to represent lexical data on the Web. However, traditional dictionaries contain a considerable amount of morphological information which is not straightforwardly representable as LLD within the current model. In order to fill this gap a new Morphology Module of OntoLex-lemon is currently being developed. This paper presents the results of this model as on-going work as well as the underlying challenges that emerged during the module development. Based on the MMoOn Core ontology, it aims to account for a wide range of morphological information, ranging from endings to derive whole paradigms to the decomposition and generation of lexical entries which is in compliance to other OntoLex-lemon modules and facilitates the encoding of complex morphological data in ontology lexicons. Keywords: morphology; RDF; OntoLex-lemon ; MmoOn; inflection; derivation 1. Introduction Morphology is a vital and, in many languages, very sophisticated part of language, and as such it has been an important part of the work of lexicographers.

B.* and Maraño, F. B. Siquijor State College, North Poblacion, Larena, Siquijor, Philippines ABSTRACT This paper delves into the morphological features of Siquijodnon-Cebuano language. Using descriptive research methodology and adapting the linguistic theory, Contextualisation Lexicalisation, the study broadly examines free morphemes, bound morphemes and other morphological features of the Siquijodnon language. Qualitative data were taken from written folk literary works, documentaries, transcripts and oral traditions of selected Siquijodnon folks/informants who were chosen through convenient purposive sampling. They were gathered through snowball and/or Participatory Rapid Rural Appraisal (PRRA), interview and videotaping. The units of analysis include the linguistic morphological features: free morphemes, bound morphemes and other morphological phenomena of a language. The data were analysed in the framework of Congruent Lexicalisation and interpreted through interpretive analysis. The research instrument is an interview guide. Considering the aforementioned findings, it is concluded that Siquijodnon-Cebuano is a rule-governed language, which certainly shares a number of morphological features with English and other prevalent languages or dialects. The results also manifest the essential contribution of affixation in establishing inflectional bound tense-marking morphemes and derivational bound from class-marking morphemes. They further conclude that Siquijodnon encounters with other language speakers, brought about by colonisation, greatly influenced the morphological development of their language. Hence, the Siquijodnon language is a twinskin of Siquijor Island’s local identity, which likewise holds a utilitarian significance for its folk literary, historical, cultural and socio-cultural heritage and development.

  • ENG-509 (Descriptive Notes Lesson 1 To
    MORPHOLOGY AND SYTANX (ENG509) Notes based on Short Question Lesson 1 to 15 Q Define the term Morphology. The term morphology was first coined by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749– 1832). It is derived from Greek: morph- means ‘shape, form’, Morphology is the study of form or forms. In linguistics “morphology refers to The mental system involved in word formation Or Branch of linguistics that deals with words, their internal structure, and how they are formed. According to Fabregas&Scalise (2012): Morphology is the part of linguistics that studies grammatical properties of words and how words relate to each other in a language. Q What are morphemes? In English grammar and morphology, a morpheme is a meaningful linguistic unit consisting of a word such as dog, or a word element, such as the -s at the end of dogs, that can't be divided into smaller meaningful parts. Morphemes are the smallest units of meaningin a language. They are commonly classified as either free morphemes, which can occur as separate words or bound morphemes, which can't stand alone as words. Many words in English are made up of a single free morpheme. For example, each word in the following sentence is a distinct morpheme: "I need to go now, but you can stay." Put another way, none of the nine words in that sentence can be divided into smaller parts that are also meaningful. Other definitions. ✓ The smallest linguistic pieces with a grammatical function ✓ A morpheme may consist of a word, such as hand ✓ A meaningful piece of a word, such as the -ed of looked ✓ A pairing between sound and meaning Q Define morph.

  • By: Mohammadreza Arbabi Aski
    A Thesis Submitted In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Translation Studies Subject: ON RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MORPHOLOGY KNOWLEDGE AND QUALITY OF TRANSLATION By: Mohammadreza Arbabi Aski November 2008 In The Name Of GOD ABSTRACT The present study intended to investigate whether there is any relationship between morphological knowledge and quality of legal text translation from English to Persian and to what extent do Iranian M.A students of translation use morphological knowledge to guess the meaning of words when translating legal texts from English to Persian. To fulfill the purpose, a descriptive research was conducted on 30 Iranian M. A. students of translation. At the first step subjects received a morphology test in multiple choice format with 40 items selected from “Word Power Made Easy” by Norman Lewis. The time allowed to answer was 40 minutes. Next, a legal text including 4 paragraphs distributed to subjects. They translated the text from English to Persian. There were 30 underlined words for which the subjects were asked to find equivalent in Persian without using any dictionary and had to mention how they guessed the meaning through a think aloud questionnaire. The scores of morphology and translation tests were computed and the correlation between them was measured. The Results of the study showed that two variables, Morphology knowledge and quality of legal texts translation are correlated and their correlation is significant at the level of 0.001. According to results of the research, there is a significant relationship between morphology knowledge and quality of legal texts translation.
