Abstract

Morphology is an essential part of language. Investigation of word development, including the manners in which new words were made in the dialects of the world, is important. The purpose of this study was to determine the most prevalent word formations used by students when writing essays. This study utilized a descriptive-qualitative method. Five second-year English department students enrolled in an Academic Writing class at Universitas Katolik Indonesia St. Paulus Ruteng participated in this study. The information was gathered from the exposition-composing task. According to the findings, the students used 128 processes that fall under five different kinds of word formations. Affixation, acronyms, blending, compounding, and clipping are all possible subcategories. The understudies applied less mixing and cutting word-arrangement processes. The application of the word-formation procedure also encountered some difficulties. It was unclear to some students how to form blending and clipping. It is hoped that this study will make a significant contribution to our understanding of word formation. Teaching and learning word-based lexical studies in general and word-formations in particular will benefit from the findings of this study.
