An Analysis of Derivational Suffixes Used in @Wetheurban Instagram Posts

The English word formation in morphology in this analysis will investigate the morphology of English word formation in this research. The form, purpose, and meaning of derivational suffixes in the novel were the study's problems. This research aims to figure out what kind of derivational suffixes there found in the data source. The data for this analysis came from Rick Riordan's E-book novel Percy Jackson and the Sea Monster. The data in this study was collected using the documentation process. This study's data was analyzed using a qualitative approach. The study revealed four derivational suffix types: nominal Suffix, verbal Suffix, adjectival Suffix, and adverbial Suffix. Based on the observation and readings of the e-novel of the study, the purpose of the study is to describe word-forming the derivational Suffix and what the Suffix that mainly uses by Rick Riordan's in the novel Percy Jackson and the Sea Monster. The researcher found four derivational suffixes from the novel: verb, adverb, noun, and adjective. Moreover, the data collected from the novel are 363 data of words forming the derivational Suffix.

Morphology is the study of linguistics that concerns about words and the structure of words. The aims of this study is to explore derivational morphology process according theory about types of derivational suffix from Plag (2002) in "Walls" music album by Louis Tomlinson. The method that is used in this study is qualitative research because there is no calculation involved and the technique to collect the data is documentation method because the data source is writen text, therefore that is suitable with the method. The data were collected by a music album with the title "Walls" by Louis Tomlinson which contains 12 songs. This study shows that the types of derivational suffix that were found are nominal suffix such as -ion, -ing, -ity, verbal suffix -ize, adjectival suffix such as -ive, adverbial suffix that is -ly. The implication of the study was based on the data, there are derivational suffixes can found in music album, not only in the literary works. From finding derivational suffix data, readers or listeners will understand more about the structure of a word used in the data source and know more about the meaning of each word

This study focuses on derivational suffixes that are found in textbook "Sixth Grade Elementary School" by Evan Moor. This project aims to discover the types and process of derivational suffixes in the data source, the data was collected using an observation method, and it was analyzed using a descriptive qualitative approach. The data used in this research were analyzed using theory from Plag (2003) and McCarthy (2002). The study identified four main types of derivational suffixes: nominal, verbal, adjectival, and adverbial suffixes. A total of 98 data derivational suffixes were identified. The research revealed that nominal suffixes were the most common at 58 data of suffixes included -er, -ing, -ment, -ion, -ance, -ence, and -ness. Followed by adjectival suffixes accounted 22 data, comprise suffixes like -ly, -al, -able/-ible, -ful, -ous, -less, -ive, and -ish. Adverbial suffixes with 15 instances characterized by the suffix -ly. Verbal suffixes was the least frequently found in the data analysis at 3 represented by -ize. Based on the finding indicate that derivational suffixes as the most dominant, it is relevant with the theory which is explain that the number of nominal suffixes were frequently than other suffixes. The process of derivational suffixes which is described with flat structure it really help to decide the changing of word class process happen in the data.

This study with the title Derivational Suffixes in La La Land Movie. This study aims to identifying the derivational suffixes and the functions of derivational suffixes in La La Land movie. Descriptive qualitative methods are used in this study to analyze the derivational suffixes and the functions of derivational suffixes in La La Land movie. The data was taken from the movie script of the La La Land movie. The data were collected using note taking method through, reading carefully, highlighting, and classifying the types and the function. The collected data was analyzed using qualitative method and explained descriptively. Tree diagram also used in this study in order to explain the data. This study applied the theory proposed by (Plag, 2002) in order to identify the derivational suffixes and also applied the theory proposed by (Bauer, 1983) in order to identity the functions of derivational suffixes. The results of this study show there were four types of derivational suffixes found. Those data can be divided into nominal suffixes, adjectival suffixes, adverbial suffixes, and verbal suffixes. Meanwhile for the functions, there are 2 kinds functions found in the data such as class-maintaining and class-changing.

The title of this undergraduate thesis is The Morphological Process of Derivational Suffixes in the novel “The Fault in Our Stars”. This study focuses on words with derivational suffixes; the use of derivational suffixes causes a change in the meaning of word. The data of this study were taken from the novel “The Fault in Our Stars”. This novel has an interesting story and contains words with derivational suffixes. The data were collected by observing and reading the novel intensively. The data were grouped based on word classes and were analyzed for any change in meaning. This thesis applies the theory of Morphology proposed by Plag (2002). This theory is used to analyze words with suffixes and to know about change in meaning of the word using derivational suffixes. The result of this analysis shows that 226 words contain nominal suffixes, 171 words contain adjectival suffixes, 170 words contain adverbial suffixes and 2 words contain verbal suffixes.

This study was intended to describe the category of inflectional and derivational morphemes found in Reading Texts of 2013 Curriculum English Textbook for the X Grade of Senior High Schools Published by Ministry of Education and Culture. Morpheme is used to refer to the smallest unit that has meaning or serves a grammatical function in a language. The morphemes which can meaningfully stand alone are called free morphemes while the morphemes such as –er and –s, which cannot meaningfully stand alone are called bound morphemes. The design of this study was descriptive qualitative. The results of this study show that Derivational prefixes consist of inter-, eco-, un-, ar-, pre-, re-, pro-, be-, de-, in-, dis-, a-, ex-, auto-, mis-, agri-, em-, ap-, im- and al-. While, Derivational suffixes consist of four categories. Thus are nominal, verbal, adjectival, and adverbial suffixes. First, nominal suffixes, namely –ism, -ation, -al, -ing, -ist, -or, -ity, -er, -ance, -ment, -ion, -ess, -ium, -ature, -ry, -ant, -ce, -ive, -cy, -y, -r, -ge, and -ness. Second, Verbal suffixes, namely –n and –ize. Third, Adjectival suffixes, namely –al, -ly, -ous, -ing, -able, -ic, -ish, -ive, -ian, -ny, -less, -ed, -ary, -nese, -y, and –ful and the last is adverbial suffix –ly. Otherwise, the categories of inflectional morphemes that found in texts consist of Noun suffixes (plural) such as; –s, -ies, and –es, Noun suffixes (possessive) e.g; –s’ and -’s, Verb suffixes (3rd person singular) are –s and –es, Verb suffixes (past tense) are –ed and –d, Verb suffixes (past participle) such as; –n, -d, and -ed, Adjective suffixes (comparative) are –er, - r, and –ier and Adjective suffixes (superlative) are –st and –est. Therefore, based on the result of finding verb suffixes are not found.

Suffix is one component that can be used to form new words in English. The suffix used in this case is a beginning suffix. The purpose of this study to finding the form, function and meaning of the beginning suffix found in "WASHINGTON DC" in the Report Text. The form, function and meaning of the beginning affixes found are classified According to the theory by Plag (2002) in his book "Word-Formation in English." The results of this study indicate that there are four types of suffix, namely "nominal suffixes," "verb suffixes," "adjectival suffixes" and "adverbial suffixes." In this study the author uses qualitative research, to analyze the suffix in the report text "Washington DC". Qualitative research as the study of the real of phenomena mainly suitable for answer the questions of why the thing is not inspect, and focusing on intervention improvement. It can be said that there are four forms of suffixes found in the data source, namely nominal suffix, verbal suffix, adjectival suffix and adverbial suffix. In Indonesia there are seven types of suffixes, namely: -an, -I, -kan, -kah, -ku, -mu, -nya, -pun. Research findings showed that beginning suffixes was found in the washingthon D.C., they are suffix -al, -s, -ist, -ion, -ing, -ed, -ly, - ous, -ence, in Indonesia we found suffixs -kan, -an, -nya.

The study focused on analysing the types of derivational suffixes. The data was taken from The Dry by Jane Harper and analysed by using the theory from Plag (2003) and Carstairs-Mccarthy (2002). The data collected was analysed by using a descriptive qualitative method. The results of this study were explained using both formal and informal methods. The findings showed that there are four types of derivational suffixes found in this novel, such as nominal suffixes, verbal suffixes, adjectival suffixes, and adverbial suffixes. The total of the data found in this study is 194 data which consist of nominal suffixes with 66 data. The second, in verbal suffixes with 1 data. Next, adjectival suffixes with 69 data. The last suffix is adverbial suffixes with 58 data.

This study focused on the classification types and identifying the function of derivational suffixes. The data were taken from a novel entitled Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan. The collected data were analysed by using documentation method and qualitatively analyzed. The analysis was based on the theory of morphological study, particularly suffixes that is proposed by Plag (2002:109). Moreover, Merriam Webster dictionary is used in this study to analyse the word class of suffixes. The findings showed that there are four types of suffixes, such as: nominal suffixes, verbal suffixes, adjectival suffixes, adverbial suffixes. The function of the suffix can be divided into two, which is to class maintaining suffixes and class changing suffixes.

A novel written by Katherine Applegate entitled The One and Only Ivan contains so many derivational suffixes. Knowing suffixes could help the English learners enrich their vocabulary knowledge significantly. For the reason above, this research is aimed at. This research uses qualitative method as the research approach that it could help much in finding out the meaning of derivational suffixes and the functions of each derivational suffix. The data of this study are in the form of words which contain English suffixes. The data is collected by downloading The One and Only Ivan novel from internet, and by reading the entire source of the data. To analyze the data, the writers use Plag theory (2002) to sort the suffixes into their categories. After that, the writers classify, and analyze the data as the procedures of data analysis. Finally, the writers take the conclusion. In this novel, there are four types of suffixes. The suffixes found are nominal suffix, adverbial suffix, adjectival suffix, and verbal suffix. The suffixes found in this novel are -ness, -ion, -ation, -ful, -er, -ance, -ence, -ment, -or, -ity, -ty, -ly, -y, -able, -ic, -ive, -en, -ful, -en. All of the suffixes may form other words class from the root word or change the meaning of the words, though not all of them are analyzed completely because of the space limitation.

This research is aimed to describe the students’ ability in using derivational suffixes. The research focuses on analyzing the students’ ability in using four types of derivational suffixes by online media Quizlet. The design of the research is quantitative descriptive approach. The population of the research is 342 students and assigned 32 students grade X of SMAN Sungai Penuh academic year of 2023/2024 as the sample. The data collected by using Quizlet and analyzed by calculating the total score, the percentage, and the average of students’ ability. Then, calculating the mean score to determine the students’ ability in using suffixes. The researcher found out the percentage students’ ability in using suffixes. 19.35% students included in excellent level. 35.48% students included in good level. 38.71% students included in fair level, 6.45% students included in poor level and 0% included in very poor level. The researcher also found the students’ average ability in using each type of suffixes. In nominal suffixes 58.06 or good level. In verbal suffixes, 66.45 or good level. In adjectival suffixes 69.68 or good level. In adverbial suffixes 67.74 or good level. According to the total mean score 65.16, the researcher categorized the Students’ Ability in Using Suffixes by using online media quizlet at grade X of SMAN 2 Sungai Penuh was good ability or high ability

The study reported in this paper aims to create a list of academic English derivational suffixes to help EFL teachers decide which derivational suffixes to be taught first and help their learners, especially those of higher education, expand their vocabulary size. Gardner and Davies’ (2014) 3,000-word list of Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA) academic was analyzed following Hay (2002) and Plag’s (2006) frameworks by counting the number of words containing the suffixes. This study found 1,251 suffixed words in the corpus deriving from 41 suffixes, which comprise 22 noun suffixes, 13 adjectival suffixes, 4 verbal suffixes, and 2 adverbial suffixes. The suffixes were then ordered into 3 levels based on the frequency; 22 suffixes are put in Level 1, 12 suffixes in Level 2, and 7 suffixes in Level 3. Considering the high frequency, all suffixes in Level 1 should gain more attention of the teachers. The more frequent occurrence of the suffix in a variety of context will provide a greater chance for the learners to get more exposure. Hence, mastering it will likely expand learners’ vocabulary size through combining the suffix and existing base.

This research focuses on the use of derivational suffixes in the novel A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett. This study aims to identify the types of derivational suffixes and explain how derivational suffixes found influence the class-changing transformations in the novel A Little Princess. Data were collected through documentation method and note-taking technique. In analyzing the data, this research using descriptive qualitative methods. The analysis refers to Plag's (2003) and Bauer's (1983) theories. A total of 161 derivational suffixes were found in the novel. The suffixes include four types: nominal, verbal, adjective, and adverbial suffixes. The most frequently used adverbial suffix is -ly, which appears 64 data. This suffix generally functions to describe the way or attitude in an action or situation. The results also show two types of derivational effects: class-maintaining and class-changing derivation. Class-changing derivation are dominant, with 158 data, while class-maintaining derivation only occurs 3 data. These results highlight the important role of derivational suffixes in enriching vocabulary and forming grammatical structures in literary texts.

The Traditional Arab Grammarians (TAGs) (Sībawayhi 8th century) assigned somewhat similar terminology for the inflectional states of Standard Arabic (SA) verbs and nouns. Verbs could be either marfūʕ ‘Indicative’, manṣūb ‘Subjunctive’, majzūm ‘Jussive’, or mabnī ‘uninflected for mood’, making reference to so-called ‘mood’ endings. Likewise, nouns could be either marfūʕ ‘Nominative’, manṣūb ‘Accusative’, majrūr ‘Genitive’, or mabnī ‘uninflected for case’, making reference to case endings. Thus, TAGs named Ind-marked verbs and Nom-marked nouns marfūʕ, and Sub-marked verbs and Acc-marked nouns manṣūb, in reference to the morphological similarity between the relevant nominal and verbal suffixes. Nonetheless, this similarity is observed between 10 out of the 14 sets of verbal and nominal suffixes in the Ind-Nom paradigm, and between only 4 out of the 14 sets of verbal and nominal suffixes in the Sub-Acc paradigm. In other words, the presumed morphological similarity in terms of suffixes is not perfect. Therefore, this paper aims to show that, at some stage in word formation, the two sets of verbal suffixes, indicative and subjunctive, are identical to the two sets of nominal suffixes, Nom and Acc, respectively, for the verbs and nouns that encode the same number and gender features. After that stage, verbal forms undergo certain word formation operations (feature movement and feature deletion) that affect their structure, resulting in the known surface forms. This account is based on a novel analysis of the SA imperfective paradigm. Both accounts will be presented in purely descriptive terms, without making reference to any available morphological framework.

This study was designed in the form of descriptive qualitative research with the aim at describing the most frequently used suffix in the article entitled “British Company to Invest $200m in West Java waste-to-fuel Plants” from online newspaper The Jakarta Post that published on 4th of March 2019. Documentation is the techniques of data collecting used in this study by reading, analyzing the text, gathering, and counting the suffixes used. The result showed that there are 83 data of suffixes found with 62 data are inflectional suffixes consist of 37% suffix –s (31 data), 18% suffix –ed (15 data), 18% suffix –ing (15 data), and 1% suffix –er (1 data). The rest of 21 data found are derivational suffixes, consist of 1% suffix –able, –ant, –ate, –ation, –ition, –in, –or, –ship, and –ty with each suffix consist of 1 data. The other forms of derivational suffixes found are 5% suffix –ion (4 data), 5% suffix –ly (4 data), 3% suffix –ment (2 data), and 3% suffix –y (2 data). Thus, the writers concluded that inflectional suffixes with the form of suffix –s is the most frequently used suffix in the article.
