Abstract

This study investigates the phenomenon of multiple derivational affixation in the novel Di Tanah Lada by Ziggy Zezsyazeoviennazabrizkie. The research aims to identify the types of multiple affixes used in the text and to analyze their morphotactic structure as well as the resulting shifts in word class and meaning. The study employs a qualitative descriptive method, with data collected through observation and note-taking from linguistic units found in the novel. The analysis is based on Aronoff’s word-based morphology theory and Lieber’s hierarchical structure theory to explain the layered formation of complex words. The findings reveal several patterns of multiple affixation, including prefixes (meN-, ber-, pe-, ter-), suffixes (-an, -kan, -i), and confixes (ke- -an and per- -an/pe- -an). Among these, confixes appear most frequently and function primarily to form abstract nouns expressing emotional or mental states. The analysis also demonstrates that multiple affixation contributes to categorical shifts and semantic expansion in the narrative. Overall, the study highlights how the flexibility of Indonesian derivational morphology enriches the expressive and narrative quality of literary texts.

Abstract

This study is urgent because analyzing reduplication in Nurwina Sari’s novel 3726 MDPL reveals how morphological patterns contribute to meaning, style, and emotional expression in contemporary Indonesian literary discourse. Reduplication is one of the most productive morphological processes in Indonesian and plays a significant role in conveying grammatical as well as semantic meanings. This study aims to analyze the forms and functions of reduplication found in the novel 3726 MDPL. The research focuses on identifying the types of reduplication and explaining their semantic contributions within the narrative context. This study employs a qualitative descriptive method, using textual data taken from the novel as the primary source. The data were collected through careful reading and note-taking techniques, and analyzed based on morphological theories proposed by linguists such as Ramlan, Chaer, Katamba, and Aronoff. To ensure data validity, the identified reduplicated forms were repeatedly cross-checked through multiple readings and verified using consistent classification criteria grounded in established morphological theories. The findings reveal that full reduplication is the most dominant type found in the novel, followed by partial and affixed reduplication. Semantically, reduplication functions to express plurality, intensity, repetition, continuity, and emotional emphasis. The results of this study are compared with previous studies on reduplication, particularly those conducted by Ambarita (2023) and Ambarita and Sembiring (2025). This research contributes to morphological studies by highlighting the use of reduplication in modern Indonesian literary texts and demonstrating its stylistic and semantic significance.

Abstract

The research fills an essential void in morphological studies by examining the overlooked morphophonemic allomorphs of the prefix sa- [sa-] in Toba Batak, an at-risk Austronesian language. This research addresses this gap by utilizing a customized version of Halle’s (1973) generative morphology framework, specifically adapted to the distinct linguistic characteristics of Toba Batak, to examine data gathered from 12 native speakers in Samosir Regency and Toba Samosir Regency. As the technical novelty, the research uncovers four unique morphophonemic allomorphs  of the prefix sa- [sa-] in Toba Batak based on a generative and pedagogical perspective, namely, (i) sam- [sam-], (ii) san- [san-], (iii) sang- [saŋ], and (iv) sangng- [saŋŋ-]. The study highlights that the prefix sa- [sa-] in Toba Batak is productive, generating a wealth of grammatical and lexical meanings that stem exclusively from alternating forms. The modified Hallean model, which includes orthographic and phonological rules, effectively captures these subtleties, providing a novel framework. The consequences reach applied areas such as pedagogical perspective, revitalization, language instruction, and cultural renewal, highlighting the necessity of protecting regional languages like Toba Batak in the face of globalization. The implications extend to connect theoretical linguistics with practical conservation activities, promoting additional research on lesser-known languages Keywords: Morphophonemic Allomorphs, Prefix sa-, Toba Batak Verbs, Generative and Pedagogical Perspective

Abstract

This study examines the use of inflectional affixes in J.K. Rowling’s novel Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets from a morphological perspective. The research aims to identify the types of inflectional affixes and explain their grammatical functions in the narrative context. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, with data collected from selected words and sentences in the novel. The analysis is based on Yule’s (2010) theory, which classifies English inflection into eight categories: plural, possessive, third person singular present, past tense, past participle, progressive, comparative, and superlative. The findings reveal a total of 34 inflectional forms, consisting of five plural forms, five possessives, three third person singular forms, ten past tense forms, three past participles, five progressive forms, two comparative forms, and two superlative forms. These results demonstrate that inflectional affixes play an essential role in conveying grammatical meaning without altering word class or core meaning. This study contributes to morphological analysis by illustrating the practical use of English inflectional affixes in literary texts and may serve as a reference for students and researchers in linguistics and English language studies.

Abstract

This study contributes to language documentation and preservation efforts of Toba Batak by providing an applied linguistic analysis of allomorphic variation of the prefix ma-. As an endangered Austronesian language with strong cultural significance, Toba Batak requires systematic linguistic documentation to support both academic understanding and practical preservation initiatives. However, its morphological variation, particularly in verb formation, remains insufficiently described in applied linguistic contexts. This research employs an applied adaptation of generative morphology to analyze natural speech data collected from 12 native speakers in the Samosir and Toba regions. The analysis focuses on identifying and describing the structural variation of the prefix ma- in verb constructions. The findings reveal four main allomorphic realizations of the prefix ma-: maŋ-, maŋa-, mam-, and man-, which occur in predictable phonological environments. These variations demonstrate that the prefix ma- is highly productive and plays a significant role in lexical and grammatical formation in Toba Batak. From an applied linguistics perspective, the results of this study provide a structured linguistic resource that can support language documentation, development of teaching materials, and efforts in cultural and linguistic preservation. The proposed analysis also offers a practical model for documenting morphological variation in under-documented languages. Overall, this study bridges descriptive linguistics and applied language preservation, contributing to the sustainability of Toba Batak in the context of language endangerment.
