Abstract

This study examines the morphosemantic features of Indonesian light verb constructions (LVCs) that utilize the light verb memenuhi. LVCs are a common linguistic feature in Indonesian, consisting of a light verb and a noun that gives the construction a specific meaning. Using a corpus-based approach, this study analyzed LVCs with memenuhi from the Indonesian - Leipzig Corpora Collection (ILCC). This analysis focused on the semantic and syntactic properties of these constructions. The findings indicate that memenuhi is crucial in assigning specific meanings to LVCs. This study identified, at least, four semantic patterns: (1) /memenuhi/ + noun denoting ‘requirements’ or ‘expectations’, (2) /memenuhi/ + noun denoting ‘goals’ or ‘objectives’, (3) /memenuhi/ + noun denoting ‘obligations’ or ‘duties’, and (4) /memenuhi/ + noun denoting ‘situations’ or ‘encounters’. The first semantic pattern can occur in constructions such as /memenuhi kriteria/ ‘meet a criterion’ (-occurrence: 89.100). The second semantic pattern can occur in constructions such as /memenuhi target/ ‘meet a target’ (-occurrence: 47.931). The third semantic pattern can also occur in constructions such as /memenuhi janji/ ‘fulfill a promise’ (-occurrence: 8.238). Lastly, the fourth semantic pattern can occur in constructions such as /memenuhi panggilan/ ‘answer the call’ (-occurrence: 69.672). Syntactically, LVCs with memenuhi exhibit a range of structures, including transitive, intransitive, and ditransitive constructions. Among these three structures, there are at least three thematic relationships that can be found, namely agent, patient, and beneficiary. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the role of light verbs in shaping the meaning of LVCs in Indonesian.

Abstract

Light verb constructions (LVCs) are combinations of a verb and a noun that operate as a referee for a distinctive idiomatic-like meaning in which the noun is the central focus of meaning deduction. This study aimed to identify and describe Indonesian LVCs as morphosemantic phenomena. The dataset comprises Indonesian sentences containing featured LVCs. Three corpora were utilized as data sources: Leipzig Corpora Collection – Indonesian (LCCI), SEAlang Library Indonesian Text Corpus (SEAlang), and Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia (KBBI). In this study, a framework from Morphosemantics has been employed to provide the deep analysis technique. The results revealed the following two folds. First, at the morphological level, the Indonesian verb membuat 'make' is a clear indicator of the existence of LVCs. Second, on a semantic level, the verb membuat ‘make’ in Indonesian LVCs tends to produce ACTION type verbs, AGENT paired argument of verbs and RESULTATIVE grammatical meaning. This study suggested that further research be done on the morphosyntactic features of the Indonesian LVCs verb membuat 'make.'

Abstract

In the contemporary landscape of language education, the integration of technology and data-driven approaches has emerged as a significant catalyst for pedagogical innovation. This study investigates contemporary trends and trajectories in corpus-driven language learning (CDLL) through a scientometric analysis of 1,118 journal articles indexed in Scopus from 2014 to 2024. This study selected articles that substantively explored CDLL principles and applications using empirical methodologies, excluding those lacking direct CDLL focus or empirical data to capture the most recent decade of research. Employing bibliometric analysis and keywords co-occurrence visualization with VOSviewer, the study identified key themes, prominent actors, and emerging patterns in CDLL research, aiming to inform pedagogical innovation within the Indonesian context. Results revealed a significant growth in CDLL publications, with research concentrated in China, the United States, and the United Kingdom. Keyword analysis identified four distinct thematic clusters: (1) computational linguistics and artificial intelligence (37%), highlighting the integration of deep learning, language modeling, and machine translation in language learning; (2) specialized applications of CDLL (22%), particularly in information management; (3) human-centered language learning (21.5%), emphasizing social interaction, cognitive processes, and technology integration; and (4) foundational principles of CDLL (19.5%), encompassing corpus linguistics, language acquisition, and pedagogical practices. These findings underscore the growing prominence of CDLL in language education and its potential to transform pedagogical practices in Indonesia by leveraging technology, promoting learner autonomy, and integrating authentic language data into diverse learning contexts.

Abstract

The Indonesian language has a unique grammatical construction for verbs, which is the product of a derivational process that results in a deadjectival verb (VDaj). These VDaj constructions are morphologically marked by the affix {ber-}. This affix is commonly utilized in the Indonesian language and can be found, for instance, in the form of {berberat hati}, {berbulat hati}, and {berputih hati}. A recent study aimed to identify and describe the affix {ber-} use in VDaj construction as a phenomenon of morphosemantics. The study utilized data in Indonesian sentences in which the affix {ber-} of VDaj had been structured as one of its constituents. The data sources for this study were the Indonesian-Leipzig Corpora Collection (ILCC) and Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia (KBBI), and the data was obtained using the technique of textual documentation. The study analysis was done using the immediate defragmentation technique and referential comparison of meaning in the light of Derivational Morphology and Derivational Semantics. The analysis resulted in two main findings. First, the study found that the morphosemantic features of affix {ber-} could be construed to some extent if the affix had been distributed with one of the adjectival types. Second, the study identified at least three specific features of the affix in the VDaj of bI: (a) to form the VDaj in the type of STATE VERB, (b) to incorporate the semantic role of BENEFACTIVE in the argument of VDaj, and (c) in a narrow condition to create the RECIPROCAL meaning of VDaj. Overall, this study sheds light on the unique characteristics of the Indonesian language and provides valuable insights into the morphosemantic features of the affix {ber-} in VDaj construction.      AbstrakVerba deajektival (VDaj) bahasa Indonesia (bI) merupakan salah satu struktur gramatikal yang dibentuk melalui derivasi. Kostruksi VDaj berpemarkah {ber-} merupakan struktur yang cenderung lazim dijumpai pada penggunaan bI, misalnya {berberat hati}, {berbulat hati}, dan {berputih hati}. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk memerikan karakter morfosemantis afiks {ber-} pada konstruksi VDaj bI tersebut. Data kajian ini berwujud kalimat bI yang berkonstituen konstruksi VDaj berpemarkah {ber-}. Sumber data kajian ini berwujud Indonesian – Leipzig Corpora Collection (ILCC) dan Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia (KBBI). Data dikumpulkan berdasarkan teknik catat atau dokumentasi tekstual. Data dianalisis berdasarkan teknik Bagi Unsur Langsung dan teknik Padan Referensial dengan mengacu pada teori Morfologi Derivasional dan Semantik Derivasional. Hasil analisis terdiri atas dua temuan sebagai berikut. Pertama, karakter morfosemantik afiks {ber-} pada konstruksi VDaj tercipta hanya jika afiks tersebut berdistribusi secara serial bersama salah satu jenis ajektiva bI. Kedua, secara khusus, ditemukan sekurang-kurangnya tiga kecenderungan ciri morfosemantik afiks {ber-}, yaitu (a) menciptakan VDaj bertipe KEADAAN, (b) melekatkan status peran semantis PENGALAM pada argumen penyerta VDaj, dan (d) mewujudkan makna gramatikal VDaj RESIPROKAL secara terbatas.

Abstract

This research aims to describe the linguistic features of the denominative verb construction (VDn) in bahasa Indonesia (bI). The construction of VDn is a verb derived from nouns, such as mengecat, menyekolahkan, berpakaian, bersepeda. This research utilizes observation in collecting the data and distributional method in analyzing the data. The Data sources are sentences on the use of bI either orally or in writing. This research shows that the VDn constructions, morphologically, are composed of derivational affixes and nouns. The derivational affixes are prefix, circumfix, simulfix, and a combination of affixes. The nouns are root noun, derived form, noun-phrase, animate noun, and inanimate noun.

Abstract

New words are constantly constructed as language evolves. Through morphological afixation, new words in Indonesian (bI) such as berfirman, menggembalakan, and direncanakan are classified as denominal verbs (VDn). VDn construction is the focus of this study. It aimed to describe the grammatical meanings of VDn construction in bI. Data of the study include the VDn constructions in bI. The data sources were (a) written bI in various texts and (b) the two online corpora containing bI data, www.sealang.net and www.corpora.uni-leipzig.de. Data were collected using observation and semi-corpus methods. During the analysis, referential match technique was used to identify the grammatical meanings of each VDn construction. Results are presented in a form of rules, tables, and descriptions. The study found that there are three main categories of grammatical meanings of VDn construction in bI, namely ‘action’, ‘process’, and ‘state’. First, the ‘action’ VDn includes ‘instrumental’, ‘benefactive’, ‘reciprocal’, and ‘repetitive.’ Second, the ‘process’ VDn consists of ‘locative’, ‘resultive’, and ‘reflective.’ Third, the ‘state’ VDn consists of ‘stative’ and ‘substantive.’ Further studies may pay attention on other construction of derived verbs, such as deadjectival verbs that can be analyzed and described using Semantic theories Kata-kata baru dibentuk seturut dengan perkembangan bahasa. Dengan afiksasi, kata-kata baru seperti berfirman, menggembalakan, dan direncanakan, yang terhimpun dalam klasifikasi verba denominatif (VDn) pada bahasa Indonesia (bI) diciptakan untuk merepresentasikan berbagai makna gramatikal. Fenomena konstruksi VDn tersebut merupakan objek kajian ini. Secara khusus, kajian ini disusun untuk mengidentifikasi dan mendeskripsikan makna-makna gramatikal konstruksi VDn dalam bI. Data kajian berwujud konstruksi VDn dalam bI. Sumber data berupa (a) wacana tulisan berbahasa Indonesia, dan (b) laman penyedia rekaman penggunaan bI dengan identitas www.sealang.net dan www.corpora.uni-leipzig.de. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan metode simak/observasi dan metode semi-korpus. Untuk tahap analisis, teknik padan referensial digunakan. Hasil analisis disajikan dalam bentuk kaidah, tabel, dan uraian deskripsi. Berdasarkan analisis, dapat dinyatakan bahwa sekurang-kurangnya terdapat tiga kategori utama makna gramatikal konstruksi VDn, yaitu ‘aksi’, ‘proses’, dan ‘keadaan’. Pertama, makna ‘aksi’ konstruksi VDn meliputi ‘instrumental’, ‘benefaktif’, ‘resiprokal’, dan ‘repetitif’. Kedua, makna ‘proses’ konstruksi VDn meliputi ‘lokatif’, ‘resultatif’, dan ‘reflektif.’ Ketiga, makna ‘keadaan’ konstruksi VDn meliputi ‘statif’ dan ‘substantif.’ Untuk kajian selanjutnya, konstruksi verba turunan yang lainnya seperti verba deajektival dapat dianalisis dan dideskripsikan berdasarkan ancangan teoretis Semantik.

Abstract

This qualitative descriptive study aimed to analyze the morphosemantic features of the derivational affix {ber-} embedded in Indonesian's denumeral verbs (VDnum). The data in this study is in the form of a VDnum construction with affix of {ber-}. The research data source is the corpus Leipzig Corpora Collection-Indonesian (LCCI). The data collection technique is the corpus combined with the observation technique. The data were analyzed in stages based on the Bagi Unsur Langsung (BUL) technique according to the basic theory of Derivational Morphology and Transpositional Semantics. Based on the analysis, two findings were as follows. Firstly, the affix {ber-} is a key in trans-positioning numerals into verbs. Without the affix, the VDnum in bI cannot be realized. In addition, the affix {ber-} in the VDnum tends to: (a) derive definitive cardinal numerals, (b) create the VDnum semantic type 'state', and (c) embed the semantic role 'patient' in arguments distributed in one construction. This research concludes that morphosemantically the affix {ber-} in the construction of VDnum bI is essential in transposing numerals into verbs.Penelitian deskriptif kualitatif ini dilakukan untuk memaparkan ciri dan karakteristik morfosemantik afiks {ber-} dalam konstruksi derivasional verba denumeralia (VDnum) pada bahasa Indonesia (bI). Data dalam penelitian ini berwujud konstruksi VDnum yang berpemarkah asiks {ber-}. Sumber data penelitian adalah laman korpus bI dengan nama Leipzig Corpora Collection – Indonesian (LCCI). Teknik pengumpulan data adalah korpus yang dikombinasikan dengan teknik observasi. Data dianalisis secara bertahap berbasis pada teknik Bagi Unsur Langsung (BUL) sesuai teori dasar Morfologi Derivasional dan Semantik Transposisional. Berdasarkan analisis, ditemukan dua hasil sebagai berikut. Pertama, secara umum, afiks {ber-} merupakan unsur kunci dalam proses transposisi numeralia menjadi verba. Tanpa afiks tersebut, konstruksi VDnum dalam bI tidak dapat terwujud. Kedua, secara khusus, afiks {ber-} dalam konstruksi VDnum berkecenderungan untuk (a) menderivasikan numeralia kardinal takrif, (b) menciptakan tipe semantik VDnum ‘keadaan’, dan (c) menyematkan status peran ‘pengalam’ pada argumen yang berdistribusi dalam satu konstruksi. Simpulan dari penelitian ini adalah secara morfosemantik afiks {ber-} dalam konstruksi VDnum bI memiliki ciri-ciri yang menjadi elemen kunci terjadinya proses transposisi numeralia menjadi verba dalam bI.

Abstract

This study examines the efforts to preserve the Javanese language (BJ) Krama as a living repository of indigenous knowledge. This study focuses on how to preserve BJ Krama for the younger generation of Yogyakarta (GMY), with subproblems (a) a description of GMY's capacity to speak Javanese Krama and (b) preservation efforts for BJ Krama for GMY. Sources of data for this study include ethnic Javanese students in a multilingual speech context (Javanese, Indonesian, English, and other regional languages), particularly those enrolled in the undergraduate program at Sanata Dharma University. This study's data consists of descriptions of questionnaire responses from student respondents. The technique of content analysis was employed to analyze the data. This investigation led to the discovery of techniques for retaining verbal-oral BJ Krama for GMY. There are two distinct discoveries in particular. First, contextually, the situation of GMY as young BJ speakers is that they are still engaged in learning BJ Krama despite facing internal and external barriers. Second, there are at least two projections regarding preservation initiatives, including (a) commencing cooperation with government and private entities and (b) building creative work spaces through various language-based business incubation activities. This essentially indicates that cross-institutional BJ Krama preservation efforts based on enhancing GMY creativity are viable and can be constructed at the level of praxis activities, in accordance with the local wisdom values agreed upon by the speech community group. AbstrakKajian ini mendeskripsikan upaya mempreservasi bahasa Jawa (BJ) Krama sebagai monumen hidup kearifan lokal. Permasalahan utama kajian ini adalah cara mempreservasi BJ Krama verbal-lisan untuk generasi muda Yogyakarta (GMY), dengan submasalah (a) deskripsi kemampuan GMY berbahasa Jawa Krama dan (b) upaya mempreservasi BJ Krama bagi GMY. Sumber data kajian ini adalah mahasiswa-mahasiswi etnis Jawa dalam lingkungan tutur multibahasa (bahasa Jawa, bahasa Indonesia, bahasa Inggris, dan bahasa daerah lain), khususnya pada program sarjana di Universitas Sanata Dharma. Data kajian ini berwujud uraian jawaban angket/kuesioner dari mahasiswa responden. Data dianalisis berdasarkan teknik analisis-isi (content analysis). Hasil penelitian ini, secara umum, adalah ditemukan cara-cara mempreservasi BJ Krama verbal-lisan untuk GMY. Secara khusus, terdapat dua temuan spesifik. Pertama, secara kontekstual, kondisi GMY sebagai penutur muda BJ adalah masih berminat menguasai BJ Krama tetapi menghadapi kendala internal dan eksternal. Kedua, berkaitan dengan upaya preservatif, sekurang-kurangnya terdapat dua proyeksi meliputi  (a) inisiasi kerjasama dengan instansi pemerintah maupun swasta dan (b) penciptaan ruang kerja kreatif dengan membuat berbagai kegiatan inkubasi usaha berbasis bahasa. Secara implikasional, dapat dinyatakan bahwa upaya preservasi BJ Krama lintas institusional berbasis optimalisasi kreativitas GMY bersifat prospektif dan dapat direalisasikan dalam tataran kegiatan praksis secara terstruktur sesuai dengan nilai-nilai kearifan lokal yang disepakati oleh kelompok masyarakat tutur.

Abstract

The affix {ber-} in Indonesian is commonly used to derive adjectives into deadjectival verbs (VDaj). This research aimed to describe the affix {ber-} morphosyntactic characteristics in constructing Indonesian VDaj. The data was collected from bI sentence constructions marked by the affix {ber-} or its variations, which were obtained from the Indonesian-Leipzig Corpora Collection (ILCC) and the SEAlang Library Indonesian Corpus (SLIC). The analysis produced two findings based on the technique of immediate constituent and the theory of Derivational Morphology and Derivational Syntax. Firstly, the morphosyntactic features of affix {ber-} in constructing Indonesian VDaj can only be formed if the affix {ber-} and adjectives are involved. Secondly, there were three tendencies of morphosyntactic characteristics of affix {ber}: (a) creating one-valence VDaj, (b) forming intransitive VDaj, and (c) embedding predicative and appositive functions of VDaj. The analysis of the morphosyntactic features of the affix {ber-} is expected to contribute to the advancement of Derivational Morphology and Derivational Syntax theories by elucidating the formation and function of VDaj bI. The results of this research are helpful for further exploration, especially for exploring the morphosyntactic characteristics of other derivational affixes in Indonesian verb constructions.  AbstrakVerba bahasa Indonesia (bI) merupakan kategori gramatikal yang cenderung bersifat resipien universal karena dapat menerima berbagai kategori kata sebagai unsur dasar konstruksinya. Secara morfologis, kata sifat atau adjektiva merupakan salah satu kategori yang lazim dikonstruksikan sebagai verba deadjektival (VDaj) melalui derivasi bersama afiks {ber-}. Kajian ini bertujuan memerikan ciri-ciri morfosintaktis afiks {ber-} dalam konstruksi VDaj bI tersebut. Data kajian ini berwujud konstruksi kalimat bI yang memiliki konstituen VDaj berpemarkah afiks {ber-} atau variasi realisasi morfologisnya seperti {ber-an}, {ber-R}, dan {ber-kan}. Sumber data kajian ini adalah Indonesian – Leipzig Corpora Collection (ILCC) dan SEAlang Library Indonesian Corpus (SLIC). Data dikumpulkan melalui teknik simak/observasi leksikal. Data dianalisis berdasarkan teknik bagi-unsur-langsung dengan mengacu pada teori Morfologi Derivasional dan Sintaksis Derivasional. Berdasarkan analisis, dihasilkan dua temuan sebagai berikut. Pertama, secara gramatikal, ciri morfosintaktis afiks {ber-} dalam konstruksi VDaj bI dapat terbentuk hanya jika afiks {ber-} beserta adjektiva terlibat bersama-sama sebagai input pada proses pembentukan kata. Kedua, secara khusus, terdapat sekurang-kurangnya tiga kecenderungan ciri morfosintaktis afiks {ber-}, yaitu (a) menciptakan VDaj bervalensi satu, (b) membentuk VDaj intransitif, dan (c) menyematkan fungsi predikatif dan apositif pada VDaj. Analisis terhadap ciri morfosintaktis afiks {ber-} ini diharapkan dapat memperkaya teori Morfologi Derivasional dan Sintaksis Derivasional dalam menjelaskan pembentukan dan fungsi VDaj bI. Hasil kajian ini juga bermanfaat bagi penelitian selanjutnya, khususnya untuk penelusuran ciri morfosintaktis afiks-afiks derivasional lainnya dalam konstruksi verba bI.
