Abstract

The comparison of language systems in different language families is still a topic worth in-depth research. Both Chinese and Indonesian are languages with large population in the world, belonging to the language families of Sino-Tibetan and Austronesian, respectively. However, the comparison of their morphologies has received less attention, and scholars hold different views on their morphological types. This study delves into the types of affixation in Chinese and Indonesian, analysing their similarities and differences to deepen our understanding of the basic morphological types in both languages. Descriptive qualitative approach, current literature and document analysis are the main research method applied in this study. The findings reveal that Chinese and Indonesian affixes are mainly derivational, both have sound changes and the same mechanism of borrowed affixes. However, both Chinese and Indonesian exhibit unique types of affixation, varying in the number of allomorphs and the patterns of sound changes across different affixes; some Chinese affixes can be a root, and some of their quasi affixes are expressed in a free word in Indonesian. Analysing the morphological process of affixation in Chinese and Indonesian can further elucidate their basic morphological types. Chinese is a typical isolating language, but its affixes have certain characteristics of agglutinating language. Indonesian can be regarded as an isolating language in which its affixes have abundant characteristics of agglutinating language.

Abstract

The goal of this research was to find the effect of reinforcement on the kindergarten B students’ learning achievement in Mandarin vocabulary. The researcher used quantitative with quasiexperiment type and pre-test and post-test design. The sample of this research was all of the kindergarten B students at Picket Fence Pre-School, specifically experimental group consisted of 20 students and control group 20 students. The hypothesis was that there was an effect of reinforcement on students’ learning achievement in Mandarin vocabulary. The t-test result showed that reinforcement had a significant effect on students’ achievement in vocabulary. The post-test result in experimental group was 87,5; while the post-test in control group was 79,5. It was found that tcount bigger ttable with tcount was 2 while ttable was significantly 5% with dk = 38 that was 1,69. Thus, Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected. Based on the explanation above, it was concluded that reinforcement had a significant effect on kindergarten B students’ learning achievement in Mandarin vocabulary at Picket Fence Pre-School.
