Abstract

ABSTRACT This study aims to analyze derivational suffixes found in Ulangen of the Karo Language Bible. The focus of the study is to identify the types, functions, and meanings of derivational suffixes used in the text. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method. The data were taken from verses in Ulangen of the Karo Language Bible containing derivational suffixes and were collected through documentation techniques. The collected data were analyzed based on Yule’s theory of derivation. The findings show that there are three types of derivational suffixes found in Ulangen, namely suffix -ken, suffix -i, and suffix -en. Among these suffixes, suffix -ken is the most dominant and productive derivational suffix, primarily functioning to derive verbs with causative meanings. Suffix -i functions to derive verbs expressing actions, processes, or locative meanings, while suffix -en functions as a nominalizer forming nouns that express results, objects, or abstract concepts. The study concludes that derivational suffixes in the Karo language function to form new lexemes by changing meanings and, in some cases, lexical categories of base words. These findings support Yule’s theory that derivational morphology plays a crucial role in word formation. Furthermore, the consistent use of derivational suffixes in the Karo Language Bible indicates that religious texts provide reliable data for morphological analysis and contribute to the documentation of regional and minority languages. ABSTRAK Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis sufiks derivatif yang terdapat dalam Ulangen pada Alkitab Bahasa Karo. Fokus penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi jenis, fungsi, dan makna sufiks derivatif yang digunakan dalam teks tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif. Data diambil dari ayat-ayat dalam Ulangen Alkitab Bahasa Karo yang mengandung sufiks derivatif dan dikumpulkan melalui teknik dokumentasi. Data yang telah dikumpulkan dianalisis berdasarkan teori derivasi yang dikemukakan oleh Yule. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat tiga jenis sufiks derivatif yang ditemukan dalam Ulangen, yaitu sufiks -ken, sufiks -i, dan sufiks -en. Di antara ketiga sufiks tersebut, sufiks -ken merupakan sufiks derivatif yang paling dominan dan produktif, yang terutama berfungsi untuk membentuk verba bermakna kausatif. Sufiks -i berfungsi untuk membentuk verba yang menyatakan tindakan, proses, atau makna lokatif, sedangkan sufiks -en berfungsi sebagai penominal yang membentuk nomina yang menyatakan hasil, objek, atau konsep abstrak. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa sufiks derivatif dalam bahasa Karo berfungsi untuk membentuk leksem baru dengan mengubah makna dan, dalam beberapa kasus, kategori leksikal kata dasar. Temuan ini mendukung teori Yule yang menyatakan bahwa morfologi derivatif memiliki peran penting dalam pembentukan kata. Selain itu, penggunaan sufiks derivatif yang konsisten dalam Alkitab Bahasa Karo menunjukkan bahwa teks keagamaan dapat menjadi sumber data yang andal untuk analisis morfologis serta berkontribusi pada pendokumentasian bahasa daerah dan bahasa minoritas.

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.
